'IT'S A DISGRACE': In lengthy and fiery comments to reporters outside the White House on Tuesday, President Trump excoriated the liberal-leaning 9th Circuit Court of Appeals as a "disgrace" hours after an Obama-appointed federal judge there issued a nationwide injunction against his newly announced emergency restrictions on asylum claims ... The president vowed immediate action and said he was "going to put in a major complaint" about the appellate court, based in San Francisco, without elaborating. U.S. District Judge Jon S. Tigar, who was nominated by President Obama in 2012 to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, issued a temporary restraining order late Monday against Trump's plan to refuse asylum to immigrants who cross the southern border illegally if they do not arrive at a port of entry. Trump took aim at Tigar in his comments on Tuesday and predicted he would win an appeal in the case at the Supreme Court, where conservatives command a narrow majority. - Reported by Gregg Re (@gregg_re on Twitter)
