Partial reinstatement of travel ban. Court to hear case in Fall.

Click the link below to see the video of Mark Sherman, AP Supreme Court Writer, and read the entire story from Newsday.com. According to Newsday.com, Trump's ban on visitors from Yemen, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Iran, and Libya can be enforced if they lack a "credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States." Also, taking effect on a limited basis is a 120-day ban of refugees.

Further good news for those dedicated to protecting and defending the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, three Supreme Court conservative justices (Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch) said they would already have let the full ban take place, that the government is likely to succeed on the merits of their case, and to interfere with their job will cause irreparable harm.

Specifically, Thomas said preserving national security outweighs hardship to those denied entry.

Big double-damn yay. 

(No SCOTUS justice said that. That's all me.)
