I'm from Iraq, and back in 2014 I was awarded a scholarship and given the choice to study in the US or UK, I asked around and it quickly became obvious that a US visa, even for students, is a nightmare, many students had to wait for months only for their visas to be refused for no apparent reason other than them being Iraqi, I picked the UK to save myself the trouble, but it goes to show that even in Obama's era getting into the US for Iraqis wasn't easy at all!

Yeah exactly.

I’m fairly sure the ban wasn’t explicitly aimed at Muslims, but rather, at a specific set of countries. It just so happened, however, that these countries targeted in the ban were predominantly Muslim. If it was a Muslim ban, as critics stated, then why were countries such as Indonesia, which has a huge Muslim population - larger than that of many countries in the Middle East - not included in the ban? Having said that, it could be argued that the ban, by being targeted at countries that were overwhelmingly Muslim, did indirectly represent a Muslim ban, but the ban wasn’t a ban on all Muslims or Muslims as a whole, but rather, Muslims from those specific countries listed in the ban. TLDR: It’s a country ban for certain countries, not a ban on Islam or Muslims in general, although by being a country ban, it is effectively a Muslim ban for the Muslim citizens of those countries affected by the ban.

During the campaign trail, Donald Trump explicitly called for: "a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on." This actual ban we got was a compromise, since you'd have to be a nitwit to want all Muslims banned from traveling to the US, but the intent to make it difficult for Muslims to enter the US is clearly there. I have a hard time believing that this was an instance where "it just so happened" that the populations are majority Muslim. It's like with the grandfather clause in the Jim Crow South where to bypass poll taxes and literacy tests, one just had to prove their grandfather could vote. Sure, it's not explicitly denying blacks the right to vote, but considering it unreasonably and so disproportionately harms blacks, you can't say of the grandfather clause "it just so happens" to disenfranchise the black community disproportionately.

Semantics, but the definition you provided for "foreign national" is slightly misleading. The location of the foreign national is technically irrelevant as the term is relativistic. To the United States government, a French citizen is a "foreign national" regardless of whether they are standing in France or any other country.

Trump's travel ban almost mirrored that of Obama.

A normal part of immigration involves conducting a background check, and this will often include asking the home country for certain types of information, namely the potential immigrant's criminal history within that country. But this only really works if the new country can trust the home country's government to reveal an accurate-enough picture of the individual. Just as an example, suppose the Colombian government proritizes prosecution of non-cartel members over prosecution of cartel members. Perhaps the cartel buys off local judges or something, and can thus commit crimes with no record. Then the US has good reason not to trust that a Colombian immigrant with no criminal record isn't going to commit major cartel-related crimes.

I'll never forget living through the Trump Administration and all his tweets. I never thought a person born in the 40s would have a bigger social media presence than myself born in the 80s, oh and he's the President of the United States. A wild time that got progressively worse towards the end.

@@AdamSmith-gs2dv He didn't have to banned Indonesia when it was clear that he was banning majority Muslim countries. If he had always banned Venezuela and North Korea in all three executive orders, then yeah, it would have been a little less obvious, but isn't the smartest. Also, if it were just about terrorism, why didn't he banned Saudi Arabia? They are known for promoting it via their ideology of Wahhabism.

Could you consider covering Trump v. Thompson in this series? I think it’s an interesting case in terms of both the January 6th investigation and the controversy surrounding Clarence Thomas’ dissent in the case.

You should check out the song “Dear Justice Letter” by Fugazi, it was released in the early 90s as a fair well letter to Justice Brennan.

One question Matt, how long typically does an Executive Order stay in effect for? Do some last longer than others?

There really is no set standard. The usual perception is that it lasts till the end of an administration or when it is nullified in writing by the succeeding administration. As far as I know, they last till nullified in writing.

This travel ban cost me 900€. I was in the US army stationed in Germany, decided I wanted to go to Istanbul on thanksgiving (turkey on turkey day)find out when I got there that turkey put a hold on giving Americans visas because of this travel ban… so I had to buy a ticket for the next flight back to Germany….between hotel, and 3 flights I lost 900€. But I got a cool story out of it, who else can say they were denied entry/kicked out of a country

Yo, dude from Hawaii here, and we don't do much in the grand scheme of things with regards to driving the political direction of the States (four Electoral College votes, two Representatives). But when they threw down over the ban, I was very pleasantly surprised and proud. My first thought was "You tell em'!"

Haven’t seen my family since 2018 cause I’m worried I wouldn’t be able to renew the visa which happened to others

Trump v Hawaii is pretty significant in how the conservative legal movement viewed nationwide injunctions. Before this case, nationwide injunctions weren't too controversial (or headline-making for that matter) but this case made the right believe that they were disproportionately handicapped by nationwide injunctions and thus started criticizing the concept. Any activist could file a case in a favorable district court and enjoin enforcement everywhere in the country. Of course, this applies as much to conservatives suing over liberal policies on oil regulations and fun control (as examples), but Trump v Hawaii created the perception it mainly helped liberals. There's a similar complex with progressives and SCOTUS's emergency docket, but that's for another video/comment.

If those countries don't have good vetting for their citizens (they didn't), Common Sense would dictate it's not safe to allow anyone who wants to immigrate or just travel to the US just because they want to. It's not even like it's anyone's right to travel to a sovereign country just cuz they want to. Trump's decision was completely justified given the turmoil in those places at the time. Groups like Isis haven't even had their caliphate almost completely eradicated yet. Not to mention all the small Islamic Terror attacks and suicide bombings that were going on across the US and especially Europe at the time that people have inexplicably just forgotten about apparently, even at the time. It's honestly maddening. Trump's order wasn't even out of President given past Administrations and their actions. All Trump did was expand the restrictions and number of countries and expand the already existing list that had been in effect for years. Trump's only major problem was that he wasn't good at messaging, especially the first half of his presidency. Some people don't mind ignoring hyperbolic statements in exchange for action, but it leaves plenty of ammunition for a corrupt media and political establishment to whip their sheep into a frenzy.
