Federal judge grants stay on Trump ban for people who landed in U.S. with valid visas

Many of Obama's executive orders were halted by federal courts, usually in Texas.
Not the same thing, and the Supreme Court had ruled that those interment camps were constitutional anyway (and that decision, Korematsu, has still technically never been overturned either, though it's universally reviled by judges still).
1940s. Black people weren't equal either.
It was wrong and unconstitutional then too.
We've matured.

Kiss what I twist and I don't mean my wrist, you wrinkly orange bitch. Don't stop fighting ya'll, we ain't going gentle into the good night, not while are livelihood and progress is at stake.
The Supreme Court upheld the Japanese-American internment in the Korematsu decision, which basically all jurists now agree was totally improper.

First, we haven't gotten an definitive ruling on the constitutionality. We just got a temporary stay. Who knows what would happen if SCOTUS were to hear arguments on this. Second, EO9066 happened in a very different time in our history, both in terms of views on race and in terms of just being at war. That doesn't mean that SCOTUS ruling against Korematsu was just or truly constitutional though. It wasn't.

What a badass
I wonder how much harassment this lady is about to get. Is there any doubt people are gonna find her address and phone number?
All I can hear in my mind from the opposition: "Of COURSE it's a woman"
Do your part to help. Call you local Democratic headquarters and ask how you can get involved. Everyone that starts now can make a difference in the 2018 midterms.
Is it true the ruling doesn't allow them to enter the country ?

If true, this is a very small victory.

True. But in February they could overturn the whole thing, have hope.
I won't be satisfied with a simple turnaround. Bannon and friends must be embarassed to their salty yellow cores.

Fuck yes. #LetThemIn #TheirLivesMatterToo
This suit was filed on behalf of people already in transit. They'll be filing other suits on behalf of people newly applying to travel later.
So they are trapped at the airports for at least a week ?

Public perception is the biggest victory we had tonight. I'm happy a small group of people will be kept safe for now, but the true victory is Donald Trump's face being dragged through the mud on a national scale. This is what builds larger victories.
It's unclear, if they are allowed to stay then they should not have any charge to hold them with.

Expect more in coming days. Basically what they could do with such short notice.

This is the most important thing.
We all better pray no terrorist does anything in the coming months, or Trump stays.
Here in Mexico, we were almost going to get rid of Peña Nieto, until fucking DJTrump appeared. Now everybody has Peña Nieto's back and #fuckingPri is back on the road for next year's election

As an American,
I do apologize for how we totally fucked up the world in the last 60 years (Cold War paranoia is helluva of thing) But (as part of the allies) we did kick some Nazi& Imperialist Japanese ass
Please I ask of every international poster here, please remember there are good people in America who are getting screwed continually because the ignorance of the electorate. Every one of us who is sane and well adjusted, let us join the good people and protest and what not and donate to people who are as good as us or even better. DONATE PLZ

Their site is probably getting hammered. Lots of people are promoting the ACLU and promising to match donations.

Not that I needed an excuse to re-watch Scrubs, but...
Yeah, it took a little while to get through for me but it eventually did.
He could try undermining his supporters trust in the American courts. Of course it would bite him in the ass eventually but nothing Trump does is based on long-term planning or thinking.

I'm going to ignore the fact that it's been deemed by many as unconstitutional following the ruling it was alright in favor of a bigger issue:
What FDR did was wrong on so many levels(and kind of hurts his otherwise fantastic record), but at the very least the declaration was issued by a sitting president of 10+ years following the attack on Pearl Harbour, during which the USA was in a state of general panic. It was wrong, but the nation had been attacked by a state.
That is miles above Trump doing this during his first month in an entire region with no actual war going on.
Besides the fact that it is one of the best shows to ever grace television? This is also a good reason haha
Bruh, this thing just dominated the international news like no other Trump story has before
Hahah that's a great protest sign right there

They can't from what I understand. Basically the people here can't be deported now. Expect that to changed come this week.
The ACLU wanted to protect the people here from going back to dangerous countries. That's what they ran on in court. Because the US can't prove they won't be harmed going back. The judge ordered they can't return.
