Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump's government moved swiftly Saturday to comply with a federal judge's order halting his immigration ban -- even as Trump denounced the judge. The Department of Homeland Security announced it has suspended all actions to implement the immigration order and will resume standard inspections of travelers as it did prior to the signing of the travel ban. Also, a State Department official told CNN the department has reversed the cancellation of visas that were provisionally revoked following the President's executive order last week -- so long as those visas were not stamped or marked as canceled.
The State Department has said fewer than 60,000 visas were revoked since the signing of the order. It was not immediately clear how many from that group will continue to be without their visas because their visas were physically canceled.

How cute. One of the authors’ last names is koran.
President Trump should have doubled down and told that rogue judge to pound sand.
I saw that.
They need a group effort? 3 people to write a story?
But apparently the Judicial Branch is first among equals.
They are the most powerful branch of Government and one that we have least say in.
They check the other branches, but how do the other branches check them? If one can override the President of the Untied States?
“Standard Inspections” just got a whole lot tougher.
I am not sure how it works but can the president issue an executive order suspending issuance of new visas from those nations?
It’s just another way of doing the same thing with probably less confusion.
LOL! Did you read this story? A guy who works in a gold mine was caught smuggling out gold nuggets he stuck up his butt and the Judges name is Doody. LOL!

No new visas. You don’t need permission to do that.
Perhaps Trump should refer to this judge as PRESIDENT ROBART, from this point forward.
FUJR and I hope your sleep is forever interrupted with scary phone calls from this point forward!
I think Trump should create two new EO’s.
The first one will rescind the one the judge just tried to nulify. The second will be a duplicate with slight modifications, making it a different EO. They can then try to stop that one as well. Just to hold us through the weekend.
And in the meantime, this judge needs to be removed.
Quite a few cats to herd.
Also plenty of opportunity for shopping.
Heh, heh.
I suspect Trump is holding his fire for something big. Notice how quiet he’s gone. This judge sounds insane when you look at some of his decisions. Wonder if the CIA can help.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
The Donald is playing a long game here. He complies with the court’s ruling, under protest, then seeks an injunction or appeal, all the while sticking to Rule of Law. The 2009-2017 Regime had no such regard for the niceties of the legal system, they would simply ignore rulings they did not agree with, or slow-walk compliance for sometimes several years.
Obama defied a court order he didn’t like. Repeatedly.
but rules only apply to the right. Never the left.
President Trump can fire Homeland Security Agents who follow the court order and then Pardon any Homeland Security Agent who is charged with refusing to follow the court order.
