A federal judge who blocked President Trump’s temporary ban on the entry of refugees and nationals from 7 Muslim “hotbed terror” countries reportedly helps refugees free of charge and promises to continue “that experience” from the bench.
This judge is perfectly OK placing Americans in danger to keep “helping refugees.”
Sickening.
From Washington Examiner
James Robart, United States District Court judge for the Western District of Washington State, told the Senate during his 2004 confirmation process that he did pro bono work for refugees from Southeast Asia, a large source of immigration into the Pacific northwest.
His work for refugees was raised by the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Sen. Orrin Hatch. On the day Robart was confirmed, Hatch offered up his work for refugees as a key reason he should win a seat on the federal court.
Hatch on June 17, 2004 said:
He brings a wealth of trial experience to the federal bench after trying in excess of 50 cases to verdict or judgment as sole or lead counsel, and he has been active in the representation of the disadvantaged through his work with Evergreen Legal Services and the independent representation of Southeast Asian refugees.Mr. Robart’s impressive credentials are reflected in his unanimous American Bar Association rating of Well Qualified. I am confident that he will be a fine addition to the bench and urge my colleagues to join me in supporting his confirmation.
On Feb. 11, Robart was introduced to his Senate confirmation hearing by Washington’s two Democratic senators, Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray.
It was then he talked about his pro bono work for Evergreen, which Law Newz by Dan Abrams reported has a record of aiding refugees trying to get into and stay in the U.S.
Robart said:
I think my time at Evergreen Legal Services had two very important functions for me. One was I was introduced to people who in many times felt that the legal system was stacked against them or was unfair. And one of the things, I think, that my time there helped accomplish was to show them that the legal system was set up for their benefit and that it could be, if properly used, an opportunity for them to seek redress if they had been wronged.
He said he would continue that service from the bench. “I will take that experience to the courtroom with me, recognize that you need to treat everyone with dignity and with respect, and to engage them so that when they leave the courtroom they feel like they had a fair trial and that they were treated as a participant in the system.”
The Trump administration has promised to fight Robart’s sidelining of the temporary travel ban. And the president and vice president have taken a swipe at him and is decision.

Fake Judge Robart must be prosecuted for treason and subversive activism from the bench. His ruling is not rational and puts the lives of Americans at extreme risk and puts the interests of terrorists before Americans. Is he part of #pizzagate? Judge James Robart, who are you working for? What’s in your closet?
He is a RACIST. I came to this country and did it the legal way. I hired an Attorney, got my O-1 Visa, then my Green Card and now I’m a Citizen. No one paid for my legal costs.
conflict of interest for the unhororable judge, helping illegals. Wonder what he think that word means and what he
pledged to do on the bench.
Where are these off center people coming from,didn’t realize we had spawned so many.
I would bet the farm this Seattle judge supports giving amnesty and U.S. citizenship to illegal aliens.
Liberal SANCTUARY Washington state, you say? o_O Say it ain’t so.
What do you expect from a piece of shit?
This is just crazy. Letting all these illegal immigrants into the US . What will he say when they start killing us?? Huh? I wanna know. Im just sick of this shit. DON’T LET THEM IN THE US. WE DONT WANT THEM HERE.
I don’t worry illegal aliens killing me…I know that this beautiful country I newly embraced and adopted will not be the same. It will be a shitty country like those countries they left behind.
I came in legally in this country. I received my vaccines and had my health checked. I didn’t bring diseases in this country. They do those people who don’t get through screening.
I’m insulted more by the people who give my legal documents with little or no value.
Well then. The Law should be amended holding these judges accountable for their descisikns. If even ONE of them commit a crime against a person, the judge should automatically be charged with aiding that criminal for affording said criminal the opportunity to victimize a US citizen. And the victim/family of said victim should be able to sue the estate of,the judge. #makethejudgeaccountable
