    A federal judge granted an emergency stay Saturday night for citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries who have already arrived in the US and those who are in transit, and who hold valid visas, ruling they can legally enter the US. The decision halts part of President Donald Trump's executive order, which barred citizens from those countries from entering the US for the next 90 days.

    We're going to select the best judges in the world. They're going to be incredibly impartial. And China is going to pay for it. Believe me.

    That didn't take long.

    A week in and Trump is already pushing the limits which incidently I think was his purpose. He probably thought hey, lets see where this gets me.

    Good to hear there are still judges who aren't totally wads in our system.

    “Immoral and stupid”: National security experts shred Trump’s Muslim ban

    National security and counterterrorism revealed in interviews with Mother Jones today the potentially disastrous ways that Trump’s Muslim Immigration Ban could thwart our operations in Muslim countries.

    Patrick Skinner, former CIA counterterrorism case officer who currently works for a security consulting firm:

    “Not only is it immoral and stupid, it’s also counterproductive.

    We’ve got military, intelligence, and diplomatic personnel on the ground right now in Syria, Libya, and Iraq who are working side by side with the people, embedded in combat, and training and advising.

    At no time in the US’s history have we depended more on local—and I mean local—partnerships for counterterrorism.

    We need people in Al Bab, Syria; we depend on people in a certain part of eastern Mosul, Iraq; in Cert, Libya.

    At the exact moment we need them most, we’re telling these people, ‘Get screwed.’

    Kirk W. Johnson, who spent a year on the reconstruction in Fallujah in Iraq with the US Agency for International Development (USAID)

    “This will have immediate national security implications, in that we are not going to be able to recruit people to help us right now, and people are not going to step forward to help us in any future wars if this is our stance.


    “The US is officially banning people in these countries at the same time we’re trying to build up local support to fight ISIS. It takes a long time to build trust with these people. This is like the Abu Ghraib thing. You have to start over, say, ‘Okay, starting now, trust me.’ How many times can you get away with that?


    “…It reads as though 9/11 happened yesterday, and that 9/11 was carried out by refugees, which it wasn’t, and it creates a series of policy prescriptions to solve a problem that doesn’t exist, as if the stringent measures that have been put in place over the past 15 years to screen refugees don’t exist…


    “These people who are directly and immediately impacted by this have done more to help our country than just about every breathing American has—especially the president. Shame is not a strong enough word for today. This is a disgraceful moment.”

    Elizabeth Goitein, who codirects the Brennan Center’s Liberty & National Security Program, said “The message this projects is that America sees Muslims as a threat—not specific actors who are intent on committing terrorist acts.

    The message that America really is at war with Islam will be ISIS’s best friend.”


    Indeed, in an interview with Buzzfeed, an ISIS militant has said “Trump will shorten the time it takes for us to achieve our goals.

    Trump Halts Program to Bring Jewish, Christian, Baha'i Refugees from Iran

    Austria has shut its door to about 300 non-Muslim Iranians hoping to use the country as a way station before establishing new homes in the United States, The Associated Press has learned. The action is an early ripple effect of U.S. President Donald Trump's effort to clamp down on refugee admissions.

    Under a 27-year-old program originally approved by Congress to help Jews in the former Soviet Union, Austria had been serving until recently as a conduit for Iranian Jews, Christians and Baha'i, who were at risk in their home country and eligible to resettle in the United States. Iran has banned the Baha'i religion, which was founded in 1844 by a Persian nobleman considered a prophet by followers.


    U.S. officials had been interviewing the candidates in Austria because they cannot do so in Iran. But the United States suspended the so-called "Iranian Lautenberg Program" in recent days, according to Austrian officials, who in turn stopped Iranians from reaching their territory. It's unclear when the program might restart.


    The episode isn't directly linked to an executive order Trump signed Friday that orders strict new screening for refugees to keep "radical Islamic terrorists" out of the United States. But it reflects the knock-on effects already occurring from his tougher line on immigration and refugees.

    Though Trump EO covered it:::
    [[[A source with knowledge of the case confirmed Darweesh will be allowed into the US due to provisions in Trump's order that allow the State and Homeland Security departments to admit individuals into the US on a case-by-case base for certain reasons, including when the person is already in transit and it would cause undue hardship and would not pose a threat to the security of the US.]]]
