In Two Federal District Courthouses -- In Maryland And Hawaii -- Trump Is This Week Poised To Be Soundly Beaten, Again.


As I said I would on Friday, the below very aggressive timeline is why the tiny handed tyrant's lawyers will have their hands full this week.

In Maryland, the main motions hearing will be a week from tomorrow, October 17, 2017, at 9:30 AM EDT. Much of 45's hardline framework, released just yesterday, will befall the same fate as his now three banning attempts. On that you may reliably bank -- and for all the reasons we've articulated, since at least January of 2017. About 45 posts' worth.

His insistence on a "white supremacy" enabled immigration policy has thus far been his undoing -- and the Sunday framework is very much more of the same. Sen. Corker is right: someone missed their adult day care shift, at 1600 Penn yesterday. Who, indeed, was supposed to minding the miscreant in chief, yesterday? Jared? Ivanka? General Kelly? No matter -- Bobby Three Sticks will likely see him impeached by Christmas. Here's the latest, from Honolulu:

. . . .Upon consideration of Plaintiffs' Motion to Lift the Stay, and to Increase the Word Limit and Set a Schedule for Briefing on Plaintiffs' Forthcoming Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order ("Motion") (Dkt. No. 363), and good cause appearing therefor, the Court's April 3, 2017 stay of the proceedings in this case is hereby lifted (Dkt. No. 279).

Plaintiffs shall file their Motion for Leave to File a Third Amended Complaint and Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order by 6:00 AM Hawaii Standard Time ("H.S.T.") on October 10, 2017. The Government shall file its response to both Plaintiffs' Motion for Leave to File a Third Amended Complaint and Plaintiffs' Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order by 6:00 AM H.S.T. on October 14, 2017. Plaintiffs shall file their reply briefs by 12:00 Noon H.S.T. on October 15, 2017. The Court intends to rule on Plaintiffs' Motions without a hearing. The request to increase the word limit associated with the Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order is denied.

IT IS SO ORDERED. . . .


Now you know. Get ready to suffer more losses, 45. You've earned them. And Senator Corker (R, TN) is right -- about you being a WW III threat.

Even so, I am smiling -- the latest from Dan Brown is a fun light-hearted page turner, called Origin -- and now. . . soon I am off, with my passport readily at hand -- and pleasurable travel ahead.
