It was a total smack down for the Trump DoJ. Just about every argument they made was smashed. One part I enjoyed was that the government had made the argument that they had classified material that showed these countries were dangerous. The court said they could have brought any classified material in under seal but they failed to do so. In other words the court called their bluff.
