Second Judge Halts Travel Ban

A federal judge in Maryland delivered a second blow to President Trump's latest travel ban late Tuesday, arguing that the president's own words make clear that his focus is not on national security but on instituting a ban against Muslims.

A federal judge in Maryland early Wednesday issued a second halt on the latest version of President Trump’s travel ban, asserting that the president’s own comments on the campaign trail and on Twitter convinced him that the directive was akin to an unconstitutional Muslim ban.
