he White House is considering dramatically expanding its much-litigated travel ban to additional countries amid a renewed election-year focus on immigration by President Donald Trump, according to six people familiar with the deliberations.

A document outlining the plans — timed to coincide with the third anniversary of Trump’s January 2017 executive order — has been circulating the White House. But the countries that would be affected are blacked out, according to two of the people, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the measure has yet to be finalized.

We don’t need anymore dullards with a 2nd grade education and the inability to speak English.

We have plenty of homegrown dullards that can blow leaves, we just have to stop feeding the ones that won’t work!

We don’t want women with turbans on their heads or men who wear skirts. Will that pass? No religion there!

Should read: according to two of the people that have been caught leaking classified material and will be brought to trial.

AP is still getting leaks it would seem. Unless they are making it up which is equally possible.

Maybe that iranian with the knives and thousands in cash at Mar a Lago (probably from an obama pallet) might not have gotten in the country if that ban had been in place.

Quit calling it what the Left wants to call it.

It is NOT a “travel ban”.

It is an INVASION BAN. Illegal immigration is INVASION!!!

DO IT. My state should also bar flights from California, Florida, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and any other fruity state that I can think of.

Ban travel to and from Iran.

I believe they were included in the original ban.

The bill introduced last year by Rep. Judy Chu, D-Calif., with Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., in the Senate, would impose limits on the president’s ability to restrict entry to the U.S. It would require the administration to spell out its reasons for the restrictions and specifically prohibit religious discrimination.

As long as this type of thinking remains in this country, the Muslims will take it over, even if it takes a century to do it. - Tom

Judging by the number of Canadians killed on the Ukraine flight, I’d say Canada is more than willing to make up for any US ban.

So let THEM have the so-called ‘refugees’ (complete with I-phones and Nike’s).

“according to six people familiar with the deliberations”

i love how over the years, that the dying lying leftist Democrat fake stream enemedia trys to bolster it’s fake news with even MORE anonymous sources. At first they would just claim one source, as in “a source”, then it was increased to “two sources”, and now they’re all the way up to SIX anonymous “sources”, like the more anonymous sources they claim, the more valid is their fake rumor-mongering ...
