As requested

Out of our very big country, with many choices, does everyone notice that both the "ban" case and now the "sanctuary" case is brought in ...

...the Ninth Circuit, which has a terrible record of being overturned (close to 80%). They used to call this "judge shopping!" Messy system.

The U.S. recorded its slowest economic growth in five years (2016). GDP up only 1.6%. Trade deficits hurt the economy very badly.

Oh foolish foolish Trump...

As George W. Bush was leaving the grandstand (after the inauguration), according to New York, he was heard to say, “That was some weird shit.”

Can just imagine Bush saying this!

I should add that, as far as I'm aware, Orrick does not sit on the Ninth Circuit.

Maybe I'm wrong of course.
