Trump considering 'brand new' travel ban

None

US President Donald Trump said Friday that he is considering signing a "brand new order" while his original travel ban, which aims to block travelers from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the US, is held up in court.

 

Opponents of President Donald Trump's travel ban are seeking another legal victory against the measure. They believe they have the administration on the defensive

 

As government attorneys debated their next move, they faced unsympathetic judges on both coasts.

 

The San Francisco-based 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals sided Thursday with the states of Washington and Minnesota in refusing to reinstate the ban, opening the possibility that the case could advance to the US Supreme Court. On Friday, a federal judge in Virginia also seemed inclined to rule against the administration in a different challenge.
