I wonder if the next step is to kick out people with valid visas within the country. Quote: People holding so-called green cards, making them legal permanent U.S. residents, are included in President Donald Trump's executive action temporarily barring people from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States, a Department of Homeland security spokeswoman said on Saturday.
"It will bar green card holders," Gillian Christensen, acting Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman, said in an email.

Officials Say Visas Were Being Revoked Prior to Trump’s Executive Order
NBC News
Excerpts:
Quote: President Donald Trump signed an executive order halting refugee admissions and immigration from certain Arab countries on Friday, but federal officials told NBC News that immigration officers may have been stopping and even banning valid visa holders from returning to the country weeks before the official directive.
Two federal officials familiar with the situation confirmed to NBC News that as many as 40 individuals with F1 student visas, many who left the country for winter break, were told their visas were revoked when they returned stateside to resume classes....
... some are advising caution to international students — particularly those from Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Sudan, and Somalia, the seven countries enumerated by Trump as needing "extreme vetting." ...
However, the students who ran into visa problems are not from the countries listed in Trump's executive order. Instead, they hold passports from places like Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Turkey....
Another high-ranking federal official verified to NBC News that there was an abnormal increase in complaints by Middle Eastern students who said they were blindsided with visa revocations after arriving in the United States in the week before Trump order....
"Essentially all valid visas are irrelevant now," the official said. "And they have been before the order." ...

Quote: Two federal officials familiar with the situation confirmed to NBC News that as many as 40 individuals with F1 student visas, many who left the country for winter break, were told their visas were revoked when they returned stateside to resume classes.
One of the individuals left the country on Jan. 3 and his visa was revoked on Jan. 4, one immigration official confirmed. An official stated that this is highly unusual since the individual had already been put through extensive security vetting prior to his departure.
...
It's possible that immigration officials saw the tide turning and preemptively applied polices they were anticipating, the official said.
Individuals stopped at immigration were told they have the option of returning to their country voluntarily or face criminal penalties for violating U.S. law, said another federal official. No other explanation was given as it is not legally required, the official said.
I know you want to dabble in alternative facts (otherwise known as liberal facts), but there's a limit on how far you can stretch the truth.
Of the 2 cases that were reported by your own source, they were both happening during Obama's watch, not Trump's. Also, by your own source, it was happening prior to the executive order being issued, by rouge agents.
In other words, while Trump's EO needs clarification, these were being doing prior to Trump's swearing in and prior to his EO.
Stop lying, or giving out "liberal" facts.

If you cannot tell the difference between actual reporting and dishonest reporting, then this conversation is too advanced for you. Now go play in the corner like a good little boy.

Iranian filmmaker Asghar Farhadi, an Oscar nominee for Best Foreign Language Film, will be possibly unable to attend the award show due to the EO.

Trump up to 59% approval in today's Rasmussen poll.
He's popular folks! Gallup: Trump Net Approval Rating Drops 8 Points In First Week In Office
Quote: President Donald Trump’s net approval rating dropped by eight points in his first week in the Oval Office, according to daily polls tracked by Gallup.
On Sunday Jan. 22, two days after being sworn in, 45 percent of respondents said they disapproved of Trump’s job performance and 45 percent approved. By Friday Jan. 27, the percentage who disapproved rose to 50 and percentage who approved dipped to 42.... Yup, in alternativefactland he is more popular than ever!

Approval rating polls are all over the place. It doesn't make a lot of sense to take one you like and disregard the rest, accusing any you don't like of being "alternative facts". It was a stupid term when it was coined, and it's getting even more stupid as time goes on.

except of course there no rational reason to think Trump doing what he said he would in his campaign would all of a sudden turn off his supporters.
But hey I do know many liberals who think the rest of America IS pretty dumb.
