Why would the text of President Trumps Executive Order suspending travel visas be readily available on CNN (HERE), New York Times (HERE), Wall Street Journal (HERE), but not on White House page (HERE)?
I dont think its accidental. The limiting Visa program was President Obamas action, not President Trump.
If you review the actual text of the executive order (copied below in full) what you will immediately notice is the order doesnt specify ANY countries to be included in the Visa suspension (Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen).
President Trump is not suspending visas from countries his team selected, they are simply suspending visa approval from countries President Obama selected. Additionally, Trump is suspending ALL visa applications from those countries nothing to do with Muslim applications.

From Article: "In 2013 President Obama suspended refugees from Iraq for six months. In 2015 Congress passed, and Obama signed, a law restricting visas from states of concern; and in 2016 Obamas DHS, Jeh Johnson, expanded those restrictions.
. all President Trump is doing is taking the same action as Obama 2013, and applying Visa restrictions to the nation states Obama selected in 2015 and 2016."

So a judge in Brooklyn has ultimate say over presidential actions?

For decades, laws have been passed in order to “look good” to constituents (will of the people). But they never pursued them - all words, no action.
There are already plenty of laws on the books, we just need to see them enforced.

My wife doesn’t follow politics closely.
She was watching the TV news this morning (I tell her she shouldn’t) and she was depressed by the MASSIVE CHAOS that is sweeping the country and disrupting ALL airports in the nation.
I told her that this is not true.
The media was agog with how many stories they had to cover. Trump has been busy. They are caught in between multiple topics, but the immigration EO seems to be their focus. As far as the media is concerned —
Trump is targeting Muslims.
Trump has selected certain countries for oppression.
Trump is engaging in an unprecedented campaign of bigotry against foreigners.
Trump is attacking refugees who need our help.
Trump didn’t think before he acted.
I told my wife to wait and see. This is just enforcement of what Obama had already put in motion. It’s not chaos. It’s going to be OK.

If the MSM reports that this was Obama’s order, it may be better accepted, but the “media” is not helping right now, but fueling the chaos.

And hey, what a coincidence, that’s the President’s job. #WINNING.

Would the wars of Independence have been won if we had been forced to obey the ‘niceties’ dictated by Marxist judges and a corrupt media ? The clear answer is no!
Trump should declare judges who have opposed him (despite his constitutional authority and democratic legitimacy) enemies of the Republic and order their arrest .

Obama dissed the entire Supreme Court in one of his State of the Union of Address , while all the Justices were seated there in front of him.
No need to arrest judges. They can be impeached.

Ping to article:

In 2013 President Obama suspended refugees from Iraq for six months.
In 2015 Congress passed, and Obama signed, a law restricting visas from states of concern;
and in 2016 Obamas DHS, Jeh Johnson, expanded those restrictions.
. all President Trump is doing is taking the same action as Obama 2013, and applying Visa restrictions to the nation states Obama selected in 2015 and 2016.
