The federal court for the Eastern District of New York has issued an emergency stay halting President Trump's executive order banning immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the U.S, The Verge reported Saturday night.
The court ruled on a habeas corpus petition filed by the ACLU on behalf of two Iraqi men who were detained at John F. Kennedy International Airport on Friday after Trump's ban.
Since then both men, Hameed Khalid Darweesh and Sameer Abdulkhaleq Alshaw, have reportedly been granted entry to the U.S.
Trump's order handed down Friday bars Syrian refugees indefinitely and halts the resettlement of all refugees for four months for the administration to review the vetting process.
Admission will resume only after vetting has been deemed "adequate" by the secretary of State, the secretary of Homeland Security and Director of National Intelligence.
The order also denies entry for 90 days for individuals from seven predominantly Muslims countries: Iraq, Iran, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Libya and Yemen.
And now the real fight begins. Trump vs the corrupt court system.
Obama appointee. Yawn.

Sorry but immigration falls under executive power. This judge is just a leftist pushing an agenda and will be smacked down. If there was a particular case of an injustice being done, like a legal citizen being denied entry, then certainly the courts could get involved. However, illegal aliens—or aliens in general—have no rights to demand entry into the USA.
4th thread
I’m no legal expert but a Brooklyn judge can overturn a Presidents executive order? Are you kidding me?
How many of Obama’s executive orders were overturned?
In the Real World they would be fighting to keep them out of the US
...4th thread...
Different sources.
sorry judge, issue of national security.
YOUR TRUMPED!
Chill out there will be more so save yourself some angst
It’ll be interesting to see what Trump does. I dont see how a judge can insert himself into the executive perogitive. If Trump respects this asses usurpation hell be owned for the next 4 yrs.
Eff the anti-American ACLU. Hopefully their days are numbered.
I do believe that Trump should have put a date like Monday it begins. Having those in the air has totally destroyed this awesome EO. Now we have a guy who worked with the American Military as their spokesman on Refugees. Ugh. Not a great start on the ban. Oh well a novice mistake I suppose.
Sounds to me like stay is for those that got caught up in the initial implementation on 1st days. Those already in the air.
They cannot be returned but those that aint here yet cant come.
No biggie
Don’t celebrate too much....
sec state is a tough test to meet right now. he isn't confirmed yet, and state is probably still pretty infested with obama people right now.
Non residents don’t get habeas corpus dammit!
Exactly right they have visas. No biggie.
