View Full Version : 9th Circuit Refuses to Reinstate the Revised Musclim Ban

The 9th Circuit today (http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/12/politics/9th-circuit-travel-ban/index.html)followed the 4th Circuit in refusing to reinstate most of the revised Muslim ban:


"We conclude that the President, in issuing the Executive Order, exceeded the scope of the authority delegated to him by Congress," the judges wrote.
The judges largely affirmed a Hawaii judge's decision from March which found the core provisions of the revised executive order -- temporarily blocking all refugees and foreign nationals from six Muslim-majority countries from entering the US -- likely violated the Constitution because its primary purpose was to disfavor Muslims.

Oh, and Methais dear, that would be yet another thing I was right about. Meanwhile the conservative clowns of PC were wrong.

Again.

Only on this forum.

Not surprising- PK recently argued that intent as a legal factor was invented for Clinton. We're not dealing with particularly sophisticated legal minds here.

What's interesting about the decision issued today is that it doesn't really touch on the President's tweets or the Establishment clause (that I've seen so far- I'm not quite done reading it yet though).

It was issued primarily on the grounds that it violated the INA and Presidential authority.

It hardly matters. The Supreme Court will weigh in on this issue in just a few days.

SCOTUS's next step is to decide whether or not to pick up the case. When you say it will "weigh in"- there's only way they would directly weigh in at that point- which would be to let the rulings stand.

But the 4th Circuit and the 9th Circuit made their decisions with different reasoning. So there's a pretty good chance they'll pick up the case. (Unless they decide that since it expires soon, there's nothing to pick up- which they may very well do).

There is almost no chance that the Supreme Court will decline to hear the case. The immediate issue is whether or not the travel ban should go into effect while the court is considering the matter. That issue will be resolved any day now. I'm guessing on Thursday.

If the law is no longer valid, that may be enough. Though the fact that the 4th Circuit decision was appealed by the administration may be enough. I'm fuzzy on how temporality plays into this. I haven't looked up the case law.

The Espionage Act (Which NEVER had a snowball's chance in hell of being relevant, btw) literally included intent in the wording of the statute. So it's not an "excuse", and I promise mens rea has mattered since the beginning of US law.

Please present cases of mishandling classified information where a conviction resulted despite no intent to mishandle having been established.

It's funny though.. in any classes/training that you are given (every year btw - just so the government knows we are aware of our responsibility).. everything that Clinton did is taught as an indicator and a reportable offense to superiors. In the old days, it would have completely opened an espionage investigation. If a person said, "awww.. I didn't mean anything by it", they'd be looked at even harder.. due to the conscious decisions made to implement such a system, especially with the amount of money that passed through family hands and affiliated businesses.

The real difference here is administrative penalties vs criminal violations.

Violating administrative policies is literally just violating your company's IT rules. It's not a criminal act, and you can't go after someone who doesn't work there any longer. (Also she was an original classification authority, so there's a whole argument there).

mens rea applies to criminal statutes only, and it applies to every criminal statute. That's the whole crux of the insanity plea- if there's no understanding that you did something wrong (or reasonable expectation that you should have known) , then legally there's no crime. Criminal statutes regarding mishandling of classified information all require you to have willfully mishandled. The people who get in trouble are the ones who knew what they had and knew what they were doing with it.

If you think Hillary didn't know what she did is wrong, then you are nuts. The amount of briefings, read on/offs, security reminders, memorandums and daily reinforcement of handling classified information that is shoved down our throats is absurd.

She was not violating "administrative policy".. she violated law. As in, you can be punished up to 5 years in prison and $50000 dollars per individual violation.. regardless of "intent" if it's so deemed by the authorities. Every person that's ever worked in that arena knows this. It's why we all found it so ludicrous...

Hence.. my anger at the split in how "elected officials" are treated versus the "rank and file" of our Government. The idea you compared what she did to someone working at an "IT company" is absurd and only highlights that distinction. It's aggravating to watch and have to live through honestly.

You should read the 9th Circuit Court decision. Your assessment of it is inaccurate.

It was decided on purely prima facie statutory terms, and Trump's intent was a very small part of the analysis. There's existing case law that basically instructs lower courts that if they are facing both a statutory issue and a constitutional one to focus on the statutory issue first and foremost and only touch upon Constitutional issues if necessary. The 9th Circuit determined that the INA was enough to render the EO unenforceable. So that was basically it. Trump's own words came up once or twice, but it was largely decided on the fact that the Administration was unable to produce any evidence that the EO genuinely tied to practical national security concerns- which is required by the INA. (Also that discrimination against people based on national origin is expressly prohibited under the INA)

And, again, intent is always relevant. The 9th Circuit didn't feel it needed to bother with intent in this case because the EO failed to meet the requirements laid out by the INA, but it's never a "special" thing to consider. It is fundamental to determining legality- as much as lay people like to pretend otherwise when it suits them.

Actually, Mr Troll, I argued several months ago that both EOs violated the INA's prohibitions against discriminating based on national origin and pointed out repeatedly that neither EO's stated purpose was related to its enforcement mechanism.

You may recognize those things as the basis of the 9th Circuit decision today.

No, just kidding. You never read it and probably wouldn't understand it even if you tried.

Then the FBI must be nuts. Because that's exactly what their career prosecutors thought. Comey confirmed this under oath last week.

There was nothing about the Clinton case that came close to criminal mishandling of classified information. I know the right just desperately needs to believe otherwise, but the Director of the FBI- who oversaw the investigation- just said under oath that you're wrong.

Go read the Espionage Act provisions that the right tried to say she was in violation of. There's nothing even close to criminal. It's time to move on.

The FBI is nuts for what they did. She should have been prosecuted. She did criminally mishandle classified information. I don't have to believe it, because this is an area I deal with on a daily basis. You keep referencing the espionage act. I never said she would be tried for espionage.. I said an espionage investigation would have been opened. She would have been found not guilty of espionage... that does not mean she is innocent of breaking all the other laws that apply to handling of classified information and should have been charged and judged just like every other person that deals with these matters.

Again, to reiterate... the double standard is what angers most people in this line of work. The fact that someone would have held the highest office after such violations most found insane. But you're right.. it's not important what our elected officials do.

So candidly Shaps, in this thread alone you've completely misrepresented the role of intent in the law, you've confused administrative statutes with criminal ones, you presumed to know more than career FBI prosecutors about how a case that they knew far more about than you do, and your assessment of the 9th Circuit decision was based on absolutely nothing (and was incorrect).

I'm just going to gently suggest here that maybe some of your resentment is based on some pretty fundamental misunderstandings of how the law works and what happened in the Clinton case.

I recognize that nothing in this Agreement constitutes a waiver by the United States of the right to prosecute me for any statutory violation.

Not sure how much more clear something has to be.

As for you to keep claiming what the FBI Director stated in any way made sense and the DoJ's decision to not prosecute Clinton is a vindication of her is incorrect.. just shows how partisan you truly are.

I recognize that nothing in this Agreement constitutes a waiver by the United States of the right to prosecute me for any statutory violation.

So the first section is listing the consequences for a current employee who violates the "company rules", as it were. It's just saying what I said to you earlier- that these are violations of the company's IT policy. You can get in trouble for violating them. But that doesn't make you a criminal. And, since it's just an administrative statute, it doesn't have to follow the basic requirements for criminal law. (Just like my current company's IT policies don't have to account for mens rea). And I'm not sure what it is you think that your current agency could do to you if they found out you violated the IT policy AFTER you left, but the answer here is: nothing. Trying to force Clinton to face some sort of administrative proceedings though she was no longer an employee of the State Department would have been a double standard (also insane).


That's further acknowledged when they have a separate provision that says what you do MAY constitute a criminal violation. i.e. There's nothing that automatically makes breaking the company IT policy criminal. My own employment contract with a private company also has similar language, btw. It's pretty standard "scare you into submission stuff". It's important for Government Agencies to have that language though, obviously, as they constantly walk a tight rope between a relationship as your Government and a relationship as your employer. It leads to some pretty interesting (and often frustrating) case law.


As far as your comment about Clinton, the DoJ, and vindication...when the Director of the FBI is under oath and says he didn't want a special prosecutor because he didn't want to give the public the impression that he expected a criminal indictment to come out of it...that's pretty clear. And when an investigation ends with "No reasonable prosecutor would ever take this case", then yeah, the person is vindicated. In the case of an investigation, recommending no charges is literally the definition of vindication.

Actually, Mr Troll, I argued several months ago that both EOs violated the INA's prohibitions against discriminating based on national origin and pointed out repeatedly that neither EO's stated purpose was related to its enforcement mechanism.

You may recognize those things as the basis of the 9th Circuit decision today.

No, just kidding. You never read it and probably wouldn't understand it even if you tried.

You said you were right and we were wrong. Can you quote a post where I stated that the 9th Circuit would side with the Trump Administration on this? It never happened.

Stop being willfully retarded

Oh. So you didn't argue that the EO was Constitutional?

A rejection by the retarded 9th Circuit has nothing to do with the Constitution and everything to do with alt left politics.

Bring it to SCOTUS

4. I have been advised that any breach of this Agreement may result in the termination of any security clearances I hold; removal from any position of special confidence and trust requiring such clearances; or termination of my employment or other relationships with the Departments or Agencies that granted my security clearance or clearances. In addition, I have been advised that any unauthorized disclosure of classified information by me may constitute a violation, or violations, of United States criminal laws, including the provisions of sections 641, 793, 794, 798, *952 and 1924, title 18, United States Code; *the provisions of section 783(b}, title 50, United States Code; and the provisions of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act of 1982. I recognize that nothing in this Agreement constitutes a waiver by the United States of the right to prosecute me for any statutory violation.

Not sure how much more clear something has to be.This says "may constitute a violation". Which provisions are you claiming that Clinton did in fact violate?

The 9th Circuit today (http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/12/politics/9th-circuit-travel-ban/index.html)followed the 4th Circuit in refusing to reinstate most of the revised Muslim ban:

Oh, and Methais dear, that would be yet another thing I was right about. Meanwhile the conservative clowns of PC were wrong.

Again.

Full Decision here. (http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/uploads/general/cases_of_interest/17-15589%20per%20curiam%20opinion.pdf)

This was my favorite post in this thread.. up until this one:

Remember when time4fun created a fictional story of her being right and everyone who said it was within the President's power to have a travel ban was wrong?

Adorable.

And no.. I'm STILL not tired of all this winning.

It's STILL funny reading Androidpk's political posts prior to his meltdown/breakdown...

I don't recall who time4fun is, but man, they don't know shit about the law, per SCOTUS.

Maybe there should be a night set aside for snowflakes to yell at the sky in angst?
