BREAKING : AMERICA FIRST! “Refugees” Detained at Airports Across the USA
On Friday, President Trump halted the refugee program, causing many potential refugees to be detained at airports across the United States.
Many thankful Americans are breathing a sigh of relief, as President Trump takes steps to place our needs and safety above all foreign interests.

Rights groups have filed a lawsuit in a New York court to demand the release of refugees in transit who have been detained at John F Kennedy airport.
Entry to the US for nationals of seven Muslim-majority countries has been stopped for 90 days by Donald Trump.
The exact implications of his order remain unclear. The US State Department has told the BBC it is working on the immediate implementation of the ban.
People fleeing Syria are banned until further notice.
The two Iraqi refugees detained in New York, one of whom had worked as a US Army interpreter, were in transit when the executive order was signed on Friday.
The National Immigration Law Centre (NILC) told the BBC that it was suing President Trump and the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.
It described the two Iraqis as “courageous Haneed Khalid Darweesh, who interpreted for US army & Haider Sameer Alshawi also targeted for aiding US military”.
The organisation had been unable to speak to the two men, it said.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is one of several other rights groups also involved in the lawsuit, filed in the Eastern District of New York on Saturday morning.
Lawyers are “keeping tabs on several flights” the NILC told the BBC, but did not have a full number of people who had been detained at US airports.
On Saturday several Iraqi passengers and a Yemeni national were prevented from boarding a flight at Cairo airport bound for New York, despite holding valid visas for the US.

Trump’s government already getting to work fast capturing bad dudes at the airport! USA USA USA
Detain those POS Refugees and send them back.
You people are everything that is wrong with the US right now Harry Repaq and Stephen Rios. Did you actually READ the part where people were detained that held VALID VISAS?? Or did your white KKK headdress get in the way of your vision?? Trump’s Muslim ban doesn’t include Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Dubai, Turkey, or Indonesia. Those are all Muslim-majority countries where he has business interests!! What excuse do you have for that??
Foreigners from the seven nations he DID ban ave killed zero Americans in terrorist attacks on U.S. soil between 1975 and the end of 2015 according Alex Nowrasteh, an immigration policy analyst at the libertarian Cato Institute.
Let’s see how you feel about #45 when he is done with all of us but the 1%. Good luck with that.
Great job Mr President. Track em and wack em!
so glad to finally have a POTUS with a brain !!!
