The decision was a fresh setback for the administration’s efforts to limit travel from several predominantly Muslim countries. Mr. Trump had narrowed the scope of his first executive order, issued in January, in response to an earlier appeals court decision halting it. But the basic flaws in his approach remained, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit ruled.

The Richmond, Virginia-based 4th Circuit is the first appeals court to rule on the revised travel ban, which Trump’s administration had hoped would avoid the legal problems that the first version encountered. “Congress granted the president broad power to deny entry to aliens, but that power is not absolute.

The actual decision is 200 pages from what I saw, but I haven't found any links so far to it.
Trump is such a loser.

No dissenting opinion? Cool.
How likely is it that the SC will kill this shit once and for all?
Oh damn they aint having that shit [media]https://twitter.com/nycsouthpaw/status/867817068917178368[/media]
The travel ban would've been over by now. He only wants it to fill in his muslim ban campaign promise but that's precisely the reason it can't pass. It is as we call it a "double bind".
