Bibi, quite frankly, I do not know what you are saying. So here is a simple question. Do you approve the approach and execution of the Immigration Law trump signed on Friday???

Of course I do.  Of those 12 people detained yesterday, one was trying to enter the country without a visa and had to be deported.  Of the flights that came in yesterday, there were more than 500 Muslims, only 12 were detained.  They still have 6 of them under FBI surveillance so something is going on.

Trump cannot sign an immigration law by executive order.  That's Obama's law enforced by executive order.  The Federal Gov't has all jurisdiction over immigration law.

How many of the 9/11 bombers came from the 7 countries where the Orangutan banned refugees from?

This is not Trump's law. These seven countries were selected by the Foreign Relations Committee and the Deoartment of Homeland Security, and passed as law under Obama in 2015.  Trump signed an executive order to enforce the law. This is not Guyana Bai. You want the man get impeached??  The President of the United States cannot make immigration law.

Show me the law that give him the right to ban refugees from selected countries.  Stop posting shit from them redneck sites.

The Department of Homeland Security targeted these seven countries over the last years as countries of concern. In February 2016 “The Department of Homeland Security today announced that it is continuing its implementation of the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act of 2015 with the addition of Libya, Somalia, and Yemen as three countries of concern, limiting Visa Waiver Program travel for certain individuals who have traveled to these countries.” It noted “the three additional countries designated today join Iran, Iraq, Sudan and Syria as countries subject to restrictions for Visa Waiver Program travel for certain individuals.” It was the US policy under Obama to restrict and target people “who have been present in Iraq, Syria, Iran, Sudan, at any time on or after March 1, 2011 (with limited government/military exceptions).” This was text of the US Customs and Border Protection in 2015 relating to “the Visa Waiver Program and Terrorist Travel Protection Act of 2015“. The link even includes the seven nation list in it: “Iraq, Syria, Iran, SUdan, Somalia or Yemen.”  And the media knew this back in May 2016 when some civil rights groups complained about it. “These restrictions have provoked an outcry from the Iranian-American community, as well as Arab-American and civil-liberties groups, who say the restrictions on dual nationals and certain travelers are discriminatory and could be imposed against American dual nationals.”

It was signed into law on December 18, 2015, as part of the Omnibus Appropriations Act of FY2016.

What? So there was a Terrorist Travel Prevention Act of 2015 two years before Trump? There was a kind of “Muslim ban” before the Muslim ban? But almost no one critiqued it in 2015 because it was Obama’s administration overseeing it.
