U.S. District Senior Judge James Robart of Seattle on Friday issued a nationwide restraining order blocking the travel ban put in place by President Trump last week.

In issuing his decision, Robart was siding with Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson, who filed a suit to block key provisions of the president's executive order, which also bars Syrian refugees from entering the country.
In a conference call Friday night, airlines were told that the U.S. government would reinstate traveling visas that were previously canceled, CNN reported. CNN's report also adds that U.S. Customs and Border Protection advised airlines that refugees possessing U.S. visas will be allowed to enter as well.
I believe that if this holds, that's basically the ballgame for the ban unless Trump violates the court order. He seems to know it, too, as he's apoplectic.
When a country is no longer able to say who can, and who cannot , come in & out, especially for reasons of safety &.security - big trouble!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 4, 2017
Interesting that certain Middle-Eastern countries agree with the ban. They know if certain people are allowed in it's death & destruction!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 4, 2017
The opinion of this so-called judge, which essentially takes law-enforcement away from our country, is ridiculous and will be overturned!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 4, 2017
After being forced to apologize for its bad and inaccurate coverage of me after winning the election, the FAKE NEWS @nytimes is still lost!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 4, 2017
And for good measure...
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 4, 2017

This is the first time I've felt more calm without the help of medication since the election.
It appears there's a negative correlation between Trump's blood pressure and mine. I think I can reasonably project that if he has a coronary, I will achieve inner peace.
