Donald Trump has won a Supreme Court victory, with seven justices voting to allow his latest travel ban to go into full effect. On Monday, the US Supreme Court allowed President Donald Trump’s travel ban to take effect pending appeal. White House rejoices“We are not surprised by today’s Supreme Court decision permitting immediate enforcement of the President’s proclamation limiting travel from countries presenting heightened risks of terrorism,” the White House said after the Supreme Court’s announcement. Omar Jadwat, the director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which has been representing some opponents of the ban, said the Supreme Court’s decision did not undermine the case against the ban. Trump issued his first ban after taking office in January and then put forth a revised version in March after federal courts blocked it.
