Korematsu, Notorious Supreme Court Ruling on Japanese Internment, Is Finally Tossed Out

# data[].attributes.body
Summary

The case that put many Japanese-americans into detention camps may have ties to Trump’s travel ban. Korematsu v. United States set a law that isolated the japanese living in america due to suspicion of their loyalty after pearl harbor. The  Trump administration tried to set a travel ban which echoed Korematsu v United States all over it. Though the ban was tossed out after the Travel ban was also declined.

Reflection

The Supreme court ended declined both Korematsu v US and the Travel ban recently. Since the Travel ban seeked to ban certain cultures to enter the country. This was seen as a discriminatory law that Trump’s administration wanted to set out. Thanks to this the Korematsu v US was tossed out or rather finished its effect.

Supreme Court Ducks Dispute Over Florist Who Refused Gay Wedding Request

Summary

The Supreme court defends gay couples. A gay couple were planning for their wedding in which whenever they went to order the cake the baker refused. Similarly with the flower arrangers, and a baptist denomination person refused to cooperate with the gay couple. Therefore the state and the couple sued them for violating the anti-discrimination law and consumer protection law.

Reflection

The supreme court ruled in favor of a gay couple. Since the gay community has been under so much discrimination and rejection. There were anti-discrimination laws to protect minorities and as such they were put to work. Because this gay couple planned their wedding, but the people they asked to collaborate refused to make things for them which violated the law.

In Major Privacy Win, Supreme Court Rules Police Need Warrant To Track Your Cellphone

# data[].attributes.body
Summary

Police needs a warrant to search your cell phone location information. Supreme court denied the police to be able to search cellphones without a warrant. Since just being able to access an individual’s cell phone violates the 1st and 4th amendments. Justified by other judges and other individuals who wrote their strong disagreements on what the police wanted.

Reflection

Major privacy was nearly leaked by police. Because the police wanted to search the people through their cellphones to hurry investigations and such. Though this would have caused major ruckus among the U.S population. Because no one wants to be searched and have their privacy violated. Even so it violates the first amendment right to press and freedom, as well the 4th amendment guaranteed privacy.

Trump's wise to quit the UN Human Rights Council -- It's an oxymoron not worthy of our respect or support

# data[].attributes.body
Summary

President Donald Trump withdrew U.S participation on the UN Human Rights Council. Since the UN has been accepting “Human Rights abusers” which are the countries who do not give proper human rights. So the U.S gave the UN 17 months to reform the Human Rights Council to not accept countries that abuse its membership. The Human Rights Council want the Trump administration to come back because the council wants to demonetize Israel. Because the demonetization of Israel would be for the common good even if its undeserved.

Reflection

Trump terminated the U.S membership of the Human Rights Council in the UN. This was done because the Human Rights Council its abusing the fact that they are giving “proper” human rights. Though they are abusing the name they just want to demonetize Israel. Just because its supposedly for the common good. So because the U.S has been a country in which promotes the safety of human rights, and for the Human Rights Council to want to make an action that could violate Israel human rights.

Summary

The law does not affect presidents. Or at least that is what Donald Trump believes after posting a tweet on twitter stating that he is above the law. Though if the President where to be above the law and be able to pardon himself then President Obama  could have easily dropped Hillary Clinton’s email controversy. So what gives Trump security that he is above the law is the support/approval he gets from the Republican party having 87% of approval. So in the Judicial branch there are two ideas that the President is above the law since it has not been tested, and the idea that the President is not above the law.

Reflection

President Donald Trump Being above the law. The fact the Trump is above the law is frightening in itself because if that were the case he would be allowed to do so many atrocities towards the people he is in bad terms with like the Mexicans. Luckily what Trump tweeted out does not seem true nor Trump seems like he will test out his power. Because if he were to do such a thing then many families of immigrants would be deported, many people would be accused of “fake news”, etc.

Summary

President Obama is going to make his farewell address. President Obama is very disappointed that Donald Trump won presidency. So President Obama is going to write his farewell address by taking into account most of the best things that were done during his presidency.

Reflection

President Obama will remember all of his doing during his presidency. Donald Trump was elected president and will take the president space on the white house on Jan 20. So Obama will write a farewell address by pointing out most good things he has done during his presidency. While also planning to give Trump his seat without a high profile. This was done to at least improve the views of Obama as a president to improve.

Immigrants Could Gain Full Medicaid Coverage in California

# data[].attributes.body
Summary

Healthcare is available to everyone in California. President Trump’s “zero tolerance” immigrant policy seems like an obstacle for immigrants to receive healthcare. Though California has a law that was passed during 2015 that granted children extending healthcare for every children no matter their immigration status. Which costs the golden state around $1.7 billion per year to cover undocumented immigrants over emergency and pregnancy related services. So California’s governor Brown has not vetoed or signed the bill which the GOP wants to cutback on the spendings of the healthcare coverage, but if the GOP succeeds California will be forced to not be able to cover every immigrant.

Ryan announces DACA votes as discharge petition stalls

Summary

The discharge petition to grant “dreamers” U.S citizenship is losing steam as votes on DACA are announced. Paul Ryan the speaker of the House proposed the idea to vote on DACA between the conservatives and moderates. Since several conservatives and moderates are sure that they would not reach a solution over immigration. So Henry Cuellar representative of texas signed the discharge. Even though the discharge petitions to grant citizenship to “dreamers” is still going on, and the discharge only needed 2 more signatures to shield the “dreamers” of deportation the petition seems to be a failure.

Reflection

The Dreamers are in danger of being deported after failed efforts of republicans to help the dreamers. Since the house of representatives speaker proposed an idea to have a vote over DACA. Which would lead to the demise of the discharge petition that would have helped dreamers obtain citizenship. Though the republicans believe that they would be able bring the discharge petition again, but the results might not be the same.

Summary

President Trump fulfilled one of the promises to expand financial aid to the Choice program. Since the House voted before Memorial Day to help the VA programs. Even though there has been a long debate in which veterans said that they don’t want to see too many movements outside the VA because it could bleed dry the healthcare system.The program would grant veterans before September 11th more access to private care.

Reflection

Health system opened up more to veterans before September 11th. President Trump wanted to appreciate the veterans for their work by granting them access to private care through the Choice program. This mostly helps the veterans who have worked for this country. Though this funding does not seem that it might fail like past programs that tried to be made into laws.

Summary

The GOP is supporting  immigrants be able to receive an amnesty or at least similar to an amnesty. Since there are many “dreamers who have come to this country when they were children, they should be able to remain legal and be supported in their education. So the GOP afraid that there would be a civil war if this continues they decided to even grant trump his so desired $25 billion wall between the U.S and mexico. But because there is more than 1 million people who would be receiving the benefits of the amnesty there are democrats, moderates, and even trump who would disagree to this amnesty.

Reflection

The GOP helps immigrant families receive an amnesty. An amnesty for the immigrant population specially the illegal immigrants would be helpful for those who have reasons like escaping from death, seek to help my family, etc. Though the “dreamers” are the focus this time because they can be supported and properly educated and grant them the opportunity to seek a better future. Even though the decision to grant citizenship to the DACA people would affect them and the people already here by adding a sense of hatred from the illegal immigrant view, and racism from the view of racist people.

Farm bill fails in House, amid conservative uprising over immigration

# data[].attributes.body
Summary
Immigration laws and bills are far more important than national farm bills. At least this is what this article is all about because the GOP ( Grand Old Party) seeks to better improve and tighten the food stamps rules, but because many of the house members were democrats they would oppose republican ideas. So the farm bill failed to be recognized due to the focus conservatives are giving immigration. Since the conservatives want to boost the border patrol security as an effort to decrease illegal immigration to the country.
So because immigration is at the moment one of the most important matters caused the farm bill to fail in the house which would not have done nothing to decrease immigration.

Reflection
Immigration has gone over the board lately that it has become a pressing matter which requires everyone’s  utmost attention. Immigration has rose victorious against a farm bill in the house which was supposed to tighten the food stamp rule which would help low income individuals by making food more accessible for them and to open more to the public. Though because immigration is so active lately that  many illegal families and illegal individuals who expect their family to come to the U.S that it has been decided to boost border patrol to decrease the amount of illegal immigration which was decided after the farm bill the GOP was trying to get to pass failed. So the reason why the farm bill failed was because of shaky leadership due to the leader of the GOP is in the process of retiring. So basically many people are affected by this decision, but because immigration is too active it is causing that the focus of the government is immigration.
