From the what-separation-of-powers department:
The Department of Homeland Security has an update on the entry ban:
The Department of Homeland Security will continue to enforce all of President Trump's Executive Orders in a manner that ensures the safety and security of the American people. President Trump's Executive Orders remain in place—prohibited travel will remain prohibited, and the U.S. government retains its right to revoke visas at any time if required for national security or public safety. President Trump's Executive Order affects a minor portion of international travelers, and is a first step towards reestablishing control over America's borders and national security.
The NY Post adds:
The ACLU is getting "multiple reports" that federal customs agents are siding with President Trump — and willfully ignoring a Brooklyn federal judge's demand that travelers from seven Muslim countries not be deported from the nation's airports.

What are the federal laws concerning officers acting under the colour of the law in the US?
In many countries they could be charged with assault or murder for "doing their duty" under these circumstances. People acting under the colour of the law effectively lose all civil rights while doing so.

The US does have a Deprivation of rights under color of law [cornell.edu] law. The biggest benefit is that the individual or individuals who are doing the deprivation cannon hide behind their position. I have long said we need to see more instances of this being used as it seems all too often overlooked.
