The Intercept reports

A Federal judge in New York issued a nationwide temporary injunction [1], halting the implementation of President Donald Trump's executive order on immigration on Saturday night, blocking the deportation of travelers with valid visas detained at airports in the past 24 hours.

Judge Ann Donnelly, a United States District Court Judge in Brooklyn, issued the ruling at an emergency hearing on a lawsuit [2] filed by the American Civil Liberties Union and other groups on Saturday, as Trump's executive order temporarily banning citizens of seven nations with Muslim majorities from entering the U.S. took immediate effect.

The judge ruled that the government must immediately stop deporting travelers from those nations, including refugees who already went through a rigorous vetting process, and provide a complete list of all those detained, immigrants rights lawyer Lee Gelernt told reporters in Brooklyn.

    I know, right? OP is such a cunt.
    Who does she think she is? Bigotry won the election. Everybody must unite behind bigotry now and fight to destroy compassion and human decency.
    That is how a democracy works.
    Elections have consequences — Obummer!

    Muslims are scum, and should never be allowed to take root in Western nations. Actually, people from failed nations should never be allowed to immigrate into the U.S.

    There's a reason why their countries are failed states. And that reason is because they're goddamn savages best displayed as zoo exhibits.

      WoW! That's funny, 'cause you know Ethanol_fueled is also scum, and he seems to have taken root in a Western nation! I guess that explains San Diego.

      The irony of your own ignorantly savage behavior seems to be lost on you.

    No, Clinton lost the election. Even if she was running against Donald Duck, she would have lost.
