It seems, for now, that the judicial branch is slowing their roll, at least in public anyway. Do I now suspect that future flights will be carried out in secrecy. You bet'cha. Does Trump truly care about what some lower court, federal judge says? Probably not, but he does value public opinion, and he knows that the optics of this debacle was bad. So, he will most likely continue with classified flights from now on. With his ever-increasing choke hold the U.S. mainstream media, he might get away with this for a while, until some independent reporters, like Zeteo or Ken Klippenstein expose him. That is what I want to see. What will Trump do when he is outed again?

This means that no one is safe in the US and anyone could be plucked off the street and be never seen again. Already it's been made plain that anyone wanting to travel to the US even if they have the right paperwork and/or are a resident/green card holder is likely to be arrested by ICE at the border and detained. In the present situation wanting to visit the US for any reason would be utter insanity.
