These EOs look like cut and paste jobs hastily put together by a struggling team of attorneys.

-1. No self respecting attorney wrote this crap, let alone a team of attorneys. This is Steve Bannon. On some guy hustling in a hospital waiting room for personal injury clients. Not attorney with the credentials to work in the White House-- even this White House- vetted this.

I don't know. This White House doesn't care that much about credentials.

If this ban remains in place, an Oscar nominated director from Iran will not be able to come to the awards ceremony in Feb. Okay, compared to people whose lives are truly in danger, this is small peas. But it just goes to show how random and stupid the EO is.

But certainly the White House saw this coming right? They refuse to issue (or even honor) Visas, and countries retaliate. Just like I'm sure they've thought through the implications for American Citizens, like Peace Corps volunteers and people with NGOs stationed in these countries. Or Americans traveling abroad, or doing business in these countries. Right? There is a strategic, well thought out plan. This isn't just some half assed amateur hour reality show stunt? Right? Trumpkins? (Crickets).

Buzz Feed has posted a video of protests outside JFK. In other news, the Washington Post reports that 2 refugees are scheduled to land at Dulles this afternoon. Just putting it out there into the DCUM ether...

There is an organized protest at Dulles this afternoon, meeting at international arrivals terminal.

It is being reported that Green card holders are being told to surrender their actual green card and sign paperwork relinquishing rights to their cards. This is really bad.

Heartbreaking for those affected including the interpreter and of course heartbreaking for the complete betrayal of American values. So distgusted and sad for our country. We've fallen so far in just one week.

Nice you can be so sanguine. Everyone else who actually is affected by this ban is not.

Compassion 101 is not considering those that died in your own country at the hands of barbarian terrorists, collateral damage. Because 'globalism'

Compassion 101 is not putting the needs and desires of illegals over the needs of those Americans in the inner cities

Some are even in the U.S armed forces. Just wait will we have US soldiers banned from the United States. It's bound to happen.

There are green card holders who have already been denied entry. They were on vacation and can't return to their homes in the US.
