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.

What? How can you say this?
I thought it was consensual! Did you not want me all up in you? Well, you certainly should have said something! And now you are using our love to plaster a whole group of people fleeing for their lives from certain death? Well, you are certainly not who you presented yourself as when you first tried to seduce me! If I had known you were an alt-right skinhead, I never would have fucked you. So consider that taken back.
