ACLU wins legal challenge against immigration ban: ‘Hope Trump enjoys losing’
Yahoo ^ | January 28th, 2016 | Hunter Walker

The American Civil Liberties Union announced Saturday evening that a federal court in New York had issued an emergency stay on President Trump’s executive order banning immigration from seven predominantly Muslim countries. The court’s decision, which will affect people who have been detained in airports, came after the ACLU and other activist groups filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of two Iraqis who were held at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York as a result of the order.

“I hope Trump enjoys losing. He’s going to lose so much we’re going to get sick and tired of his losing,” ACLU national political director Faiz Shakir told Yahoo News shortly after the decision was announced.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the court ruling.

> If that court throws it out then it goes to USSC, no?

No, the US Circuit Court of Appeals.

Does this judge have jurisdiction outside of New York or whatever territory that the federal district covers? If not, then the ruling would apply only to the federal district that New York is in.

Also what about this? A jet in the air on its way TO New York isn’t in the space covered by that judge’s ruling or in any such jurisdiction, no matter what. As per a new order that Trump could maybe issue as CiC, passenger jets carrying persons from the banned countries could be denied landing rights. Divert them to Canada or somewhere else. Up the ante.

Yes . True

I’m a male but I know Islam is the worst thing ever.Keep all Muslims away from America

In 1400 year Islam has genocided countless whole populations the media hides. A recent genocide is the Armenian genocide where Muslim Turks in Turkey exterminated the whole Christian Armenian population of 2 million Christians in 1915. They tortured these people to death in the worst thing I’ve ever read, proof: http://www.gendercide.org/case_armenia.html

This is the plan they have for us, populate a country , install sharia law , achieve world dominance then genocide’
