Nothing funny about it...it's disgusting.  The federal judiciary (please read Article III) has the power to APPLY cases presented to them against the Constitution, and READING THE PLAIN LANGUAGE of the Constitution, decide whether the LAW, NOT the Constitution is correct.  Marshall, in Marbury v. Madison made a huge power grab, and exceeded the powers enumerated in Article III.  Courts don't issue "rulings" ... they issue "opinions"...otherwise, we'd still have slavery.  And if "respecting the courts rulings" is all there is to it...then the Dred Scott case, the Fugitive slave act, fdr's EO 9066, are all still alive and well.  (Hmm, seems the federal COURTS don't even respect their own decisions!)  As far as Trump's pardoning...I refer you TO the Constitution, Article II, Section 2, Clause 1.  And there's nothing funny about aliens from other countries entering and staying here illegally...that, in and of itself, constitutes criminal actions.
