Apparently it was meant to allow for indefinite detention while extreme vetting occurred.

“It deals with people who are being deported. The action never spoke to it, never intended to deport people,” Spicer said.

A federal judge in New York on Saturday issued an order keeping U.S. officials from deporting people who fell under the travel ban and who were detained in American airports despite having valid visas.

Spicer claimed on Monday that the federal government never meant to deport any those who were detained. He said that officials detained them and determined whether or not “they sought to do us any harm.”

More mendacity. If you can’t enter a country’s borders you get sent back i.e. deported. I was a Project Mgr years ago and traveled with some team members for a meeting with a sub-contractor in Vancouver. One of my team members traveled with an Indian passport and was turned away by Canadian customs since he was required to have a work-visa for meetings (US passport holders didn’t have that problem). He was put on next flight to the US.

Really? Signing EOs that have not been vetted or reviewed by the relevant federal agencies and which are really nothing more than elaborate PR stunts can have unintended consequences?

Who knew?

That’s like saying, after you pushed Grannie off the cliff, that you “never meant” for her to hit the bottom.

OF COURSE there would be deportations, when the order was shared with the Homeland Security people as it was signed. OF COURSE there’d be deportations, because people were granted visas allowing entry to the U.S. OF COURSE there’d be deportations, because there were planes in the air, with people carrying valid visas promising entry into the U.S., when T-rump signed the order.

It’s not “deportation,” it’s “enhanced departure.”
