Judge Lifts Trump’s Iran Travel Ban, Now NYC’s Outbreak Is Due To Travel From Iran
bigleaguepolitics.com ^ | Mar 17, 2020

Daniel Horowitz of Conservative Review made an interesting observation on March 16, 2020.

He tweeted, “Nearly the entire outbreak in NY came from a traveler from Iran, a place that was supposed to have a travel ban, but thanks to lower courts continuing to militate against Scotus decision, it was rendered moot. “

Although what you say is true, the reasoning behind the travel
ban is irrelevant. the fact remains that had that judge not removed the travel ban the woman would not have been here.

My understanding is that the 2017 travel ban was for Iranians coming here. It wasn’t for U.S. citizens going to visit family in Iran. The 2nd most recent ban was for any travel

“So, an Iran travel ban is still in effect?”

As far as I know.
The Supreme Court upheld in 2018 that the original ban was constitutional.
I don’t think there’s any question regarding the most recent one pertaining to the spread of COVID-19

No, you’re misunderstanding the ban. The woman in N.Y. travelled to Iran to visit family. That was never part of the ban. The ban was not allowing Iranians to come here.

“If the 2017 ban was fully in effect you wouldn’t need a second ban. “

Yes, you would, because U.S. citizens who are Iranian were still allowed to travel under the original ban. Now, no one can travel to/from Iran.

Trump must instruct the DOJ to immediately charge this judge with treason.

This is misleading.
The Iran travel ban the author is referring to, is the one put in place back in 2017 (I believe). It had nothing to do with the virus. The travel restrictions regarding COVID-19 and Iran, were put in place on Feb. 29th (I believe), a day before the AP announced that this woman traveler was diagnosed with the virus (Mar. 1). Those 2 things are not related. She returned before the COVID-19 ban was put in place.

That bears repeating. When you do a websearch, check the dates. Travel ban cases have been kicking around the courts since President Trump took office, and it was very difficult for me to prove or disprove what the source said, since there were so many articles from previous years.

I was just thinking yesterday, that there should be a widely posted correlation of sanctuary cities and cases of COVID19. I’d like to shout from the rooftops, “Isn’t being a sanctuary city GREAT, folks?” Sanctuary cities, letting all the disease-carrying refuse from other countries with low level health systems come and help themselves to our bounty, contributing practically nothing except foreign diseases and more mouths to feed, parasitizing our schools, hospitals, housing, etc.

Yes. We need to pull together as a Country. Many hearts and minds may be changed by our common travel through this experience.
Prayers for us all!
