Woo Hoo, just read that Trump got his ban back on for six Muslim countries.
Too bad he didn't include more Muslim scum bag countries but this is a good start.

I see he didn't specifically say Christians from these countries would be given priority to leave, I guess that must be a legal thing, but I'm sure in the working process Christians will be given full priority, as they should, and the Muslims can stay and live in the sh^tholes they built for themselves.

Good job Donald, keep up the good work eh

the new travel ban is out. not much fan fair this time.

Trump's new travel ban exempts Iraq, caps refugees - World - CBC News


Interesting....
The revised order is narrower and specifies that a 90-day ban on people from the six countries does not apply to those who already have valid visas or people with U.S. green cards.

The White House dropped Iraq from the list of targeted countries following pressure from the Pentagon and State Department, which had urged the White House to reconsider, given Iraq's key role in fighting the Islamic State group. Syrian nationals are also no longer subjected to an indefinite ban, despite Trump's insistence as a candidate that Syrian refugees in particular posed a serious security threat to the United States.

Trump is a loose cannon. Won't be long before that fact is made manifest.


Do you think maybe he should sit down with a shrink for half an hour?

Well he seems to be learning quickly. He's installed a 10 day Grace period, hopefully to ensure folks don't get hung up enroute.

Trumpites kept saying Donny was gonna show them judges. Looks like he quietly accepted the errors of his ways. It'll be interesting to see if he gets bitch-slapped by a few more judges.

He could be on the couch every day for the rest of his life and they still wouldn't get to the bottom of his psychosis.


In a lot of ways I think he's on the right track. He just doesn't have a particularly endearing personality.

What's interesting is that Canadian citizens, holding Canadian passports, having been born in Canada, are being refused entry and told they need visas to enter the US.

Hawaii Blocks Muslim Ban 2.0

:lol:

Federal judge in Hawaii freezes President Trump’s new executive order

A federal judge in Hawaii has frozen President Trump’s new executive order temporarily barring the issuance of new visas to citizens of six-Muslim majority countries and suspending the admission of new refugees.

U.S. District Judge Derrick K. Watson froze the order nationwide.

Watson was the second of three judges to hear arguments Wednesday on whether to freeze the ban. A federal judge in Maryland said he also could rule before day’s end after a morning hearing, and the same federal judge in Washington state who suspended Trump’s first travel ban was set to hear arguments starting at 5 p.m. Eastern.

The hearing in Hawaii came in response to a lawsuit filed by the state itself. Lawyers for Hawaii alleged the new travel ban, much like the old, violates the establishment clause of the First Amendment because it is essentially a Muslim ban, hurts the ability of state businesses and universities to recruit top talent and damages the state’s robust tourism industry.

They pointed particularly to the case of Ismail Elshikh, the imam of the Muslim Association of Hawaii, whose mother-in-law’s application for an immigrant visa was still being processed. Under the new executive order, lawyers for Hawaii said, Elshikh feared that his mother-in-law would ultimately be banned from entering the United States.
