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.

    Why are we not surprised? And the "Unitary Executive"? The "Nixon Doctrine"? The proper mix for concrete? What else has passed by you, Runaway? What else? As Dan Quayle said: "Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most."

      Which of my detractors are you? You have nothing better to do with your time, than to follow me around, making inane comments that contribute nothing. I'll probably just go mod bomb Aristarchus. Even if you're not him, he deserves it.

        Dude, paranoia much? What makes you think this was me? I am jmorris's SJW monitor, not yours! And besides, no one has to "follow" you around, you post shit everywhere, so it is kind of hard to avoid.

          It really doesn't matter - I shoot like Obama. Some raghead needs killing, Obama launched a couple drones into random places where he hoped the raghead might be. Same here - I can just shoot some random SJW when they start creeping me out. Aristarchus is pretty damned random, if you ask me.

            now, Now, I was going to come to your defense as one of the more reasonable and moderate right leaning bastards around here ;)

            In your defense you started with a good question, and you don't have to go to raghead and sjw's around here firing indiscriminately.

            To put it at your level, try being cool like bugs bunny and not reactionary like Yosemite Sam ;P
