This year has seen unprecedented — and unconstitutional — meddling in the decisions of a sitting president. Despite it all, President Trump has been able to sidestep and undermine much of this interference simply by enforcing current law. As a result, illegal immigration is down, the asylum program, which had become little more than an alternative form of immigration, is slowing as authorities check for attempted fraud, and refugee resettlement levels are lower because of Trump's reduced annual caps. Meanwhile, President Trump patiently took the constitutional route of appealing the travel ban injunctions to the Supreme Court, confident that the justices would rule in his favor. Yesterday, in a 7-to-2 decision, the Supreme Court did just that, allowing Presidential Proclamation 9645, the third iteration of President Trump’s travel ban, to come fully into effect pending two legal challenges expected to be heard soon in the oft-overturned Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals.
