The US Supreme Court has partially lifted an injunction against President Donald Trump's travel ban.
The Supreme Court said in Monday's ruling: "In practical terms, this means that [the executive order] may not be enforced against foreign nationals who have a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.
"All other foreign nationals are subject to the provisions of [the executive order]."
Mark this down as a win for Donald Trump. The path to entry into the US for immigrants and refugees from the affected nations, if they don't have existing ties to the US - either through family, schools or employment - just became considerably harder.
The decision marks a reaffirmation of the sweeping powers the president has traditionally been granted by the courts in areas of national security. There was fear in some quarters that the administration's ham-fisted implementation of its immigration policy could do lasting damage to the president's prerogatives. That appears not to be the case.

It really is starting to look that way. I'm guessing he's far out on the ocd/aspergers/whatever spectrum and has a good handle on tech stuff, but social issues are such a mess that he just gets his worldview straight from conservative talking heads. Or maybe he just googles his favorite sites and cobbles together an answer, not vetting the sources for sings of "fakery". The possibilities are endless with someone so wacked from reality.

No, AC, J-Mo is an honest to goodness alt-reich goose-stepper. I've seen him drop "dindunuffin," for example, and he's outright said he wants to burn the nation down and start over. Peruse his search history to get an idea of what kind of person it is we're dealing with here.
Please understand, there is real evil in this world, and it takes the shape of humans at times. In every era there are people who have willingly made themselves vessels for the devouring void between the stars, and this is one of them.

Pretty sure he was a cryogenically frozen Hitler Youth.
