Donald Trump's executive order on immigration (which is 100% a "Muslim Ban") is wreaking havoc and separating families, but it's also going to hurt the economy. Yet, Republicans seem eager to add more countries to the list, and, despite a court order, many people are still being detained at airports and prevented from meeting with lawyers. 

The ramifications are already resounding: hours after the ban was signed, a Texas mosque went up in flames. To the north, Canada is reeling after a terror attack last night targeted worshippers praying at a Quebec City mosque.
