    "...In January 2017, Trump issued an executive order during his first term in office banning travel to the #US by citizens of seven predominantly #Muslim countries — #Iraq, #Syria, #Iran, #Sudan, #Libya, #Somalia and #Yemen." (MuslimBan)

    Now, "...Trump is mulling 👉expanding his travel ban policy to 36 additional countries👈,...

  3. Not for nothing: #Trump's #TravelBan ordering the citizens of 12 countries to be blocked from entering the United States goes into effect at 12:01 AM ET (0401 GMT) on Monday, a move he claimed was to protect the US from "foreign terrorists."

    In Trump’s first term, he instituted a #MuslimBan which was widely protested.

  4. This is basically Donald Trump's Muslim Ban all over again, because these are the same countries he tried to ban during his 1st term.

    You'll notice he claims he did this because of a terrorist attack, but you'll note Egypt is not on the list, where the person is actually from.

  5. Neben 1000 anderen, wirklich existenziellen Dingen nehme ich es ihm ja schon seit Trump I. persönlich übel, dass er mit seinem beknackten „#MuslimBan“ der vertrottelten und dem für-Übersetzungen-zu-geizigen deutschen Medienlandschaft das Wort „#Bann“ ins Hirn geschissen hat.

    Das kulminiert dann in solchen Schlagzeilenkrachern wie diesem:

    „Bann für Busse und Bahnen auf der Bürgermeister-Smidt-Brücke?“

  6. #Trump has set in motion what is likely to be an eventual restoration of his first term ban on travel to the United States of citizens from several predominantly #Muslim countries. He issued an #ExecutiveOrder directing a 60-day study to come up with a list “identifying countries throughout the world for which vetting & screening information is so deficient as to warrant a partial or full suspension on the admission of nationals from those countries.”

  7. A #muslim friend (who should know better) asked me if I wasn't better off under the first #trump administration and I was so shocked that I didn't have a response. But then I realized that because of the #muslimban Two members of my extended family were "detained" twice when they tried to return home because they are Muslim. We must fight for our memories. linkedin.com/pulse/came-my-fam

    A significant (decisive?) number of Muslims in Michigan voted for #TheOrangeMenace b/c they were upset by #Biden'/#Harris' lack of support for #Gaza, while #MuslimBan #DonTheCon visited Muslim communities in Michigan and assured them he would support them. 🤦‍♂️

  9. CW: US politics / crowdsourcing offers of assistance

    For example, if someone in Canada or the UK has a spare bedroom and is willing to host a person (e.g. a university student who’s going to lose their place in January due to the Muslim ban) … how on are they going to find someone?

  10. CW: US politics / crowdsourcing offers of assistance

    Maybe a better question is, for those of us outside the US who are able to offer direct assistance in a small, targeted, personal way … how can we do so?

  11. CW: US politics / crowdsourcing offers of assistance

    Has anyone put together a database of offers of and requests for assistance getting out of the US? I’m specifically thinking of those who will be in urgent/immediate need – e.g. foreign students who happen to be Muslim, trans kids, asylum seekers whose cases are under review.

  12. But for many observers, “Protecting the Nation From Foreign Terrorist Entry Into the United States” would go down as…the #MuslimBan.

    Touted as an anti-terrorism measure, the first iteration of #Trump’s travel ban on foreigners from 7 #Muslim-majority countries—#Iraq, #Iran, #Libya, #Somalia, #Sudan, #Syria, & #Yemen—was a watershed moment.

  13. @realTuckFrumper
    Such a poll (showing Arabs favor T****) isn't that they are ACTUALLY "pro-T****", just upset with #Biden/#Harris over #Gaza/#Lebanon.

    Most don't remember his #MuslimBan, or saying we should just "Let it play out" regarding #Israel's attack on #Gaza.

    #TheOrangeXenophobe is ready to deport anyone with brown skin & an accent.

    I suggest The #HarrisCampaign start reminding everyone just who this man is. #racist #RacistInChief

  14. @NIH_LLAMAS @w7voa
    Off by a full year (and completely dismissing the #pandemic granting him the power to turn away anyone w/o reason.)

    #TheOrangeMenace is a Xenophobic isolationist (much like his racist base.) That's why they want The Wall™, a "#MuslimBan", extreme #tariffs on all imports, the end of #NATO and total isolation from the outside world.

    Just look at what it did for China (The Great Wall) & Russia (The Iron Curtain)? 🤔 #MakeAmerica1955Again

  15. What the fuck is going on with ICE and the Canadian #border? Why are they checking cars *leaving* the US?

    Twice in the past month I've gone to #Canada via #Buffalo NY, at two different crossings. Both times, #ICE / #CBP (#BorderPatrol) had makeshift stations set up on the no-u-turns-allowed approach roads to the Canadian customs/border stations. They were stopping all cars and questioning people. The first time I got a glance and a wave. The second time I got "What's your destination? What's the purpose of your visit? What are you carrying in your car? Do you have more than $1K in cash?"

    This is NOT NORMAL. #Cops do not stop people leaving the USA for #international #travel. They only stop those trying to get (back) in. Screening who leaves the country sets off my Jack-Booted Thugs Radar (thugdar? IDK). This reeks of #authoritarianism. It's freaky and I'm not coming up with any benign reasons for spending all the money/manpower to do this.

    Does anyone know what the hell is going on?

    Context: I don't trust ICE/CBP any farther than I can throw them, after living near the US-Mexico border for a decade, and after spending some time studying immigration and related things. ICE is arguably the most #corrupt police organization in North America (but see Canadian Mounties for a contender). They demonstrate serious #MissionCreep, and they are a tail wagging the political dog for #immigration issues. ICE sucks. Remember when they refused for weeks to comply with court orders to stop the #MuslimBan a few years ago?

    Any info on what's happening?
