Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy Slams Judge On Immigration Ruling: Doesn’t Know The Law Book From A J. Crew Catalog
Story by Harold Hutchison - DCNF • 8h
Republican Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana accused an Obama-appointed federal judge of exceeding her authority Tuesday by blocking the revocation of parole for over 500,000 illegal immigrants.
United States District Judge Indira Talwani of the District of Massachusetts imposed a nationwide injunction barring the Trump administration from deporting migrants who entered the country during the Biden administration under the “CHNV program.” Kennedy said that Talwani “doesn’t know the law” while blasting her for using a nationwide injunction.
“The judge is wrong. He or she, obviously, doesn’t know the law book from a J.Crew catalog. I believe this judge issued a national injunction. In my judgment, those are illegal,” Kennedy told “America Reports” co-host Sandra Smith and guest co-host Bill Melugin. “A national injunction is when two parties go to court, plaintiff and defendant and that federal judge issues a ruling that doesn’t just apply to those two parties in court. It applies to the whole country.”
“Now, there is no basis in statutory law for that. There is no basis in Supreme Court precedent for that. There is no basis English common law for that, on which our justice system is based. The Supreme Court could fix it, and I hope it does quickly,” Kennedy continued.
