A federal judge in Detroit on Thursday ordered the Trump administration to turn over a memo drafted under former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani's guidance outlining a plan to implement a travel ban without making it seem as if it was directly aimed at Muslims, Bloomberg reported.

According to a court filing by the Arab American Civil Rights League, President Trump ordered Giuliani during his presidential campaign to form a commission tasked with developing a "Muslim ban" that appeared legally sound.

1. Ohboyohboyohboy!

4. The "Wall" is closing in around drumpf and co.

8. He's finally getting his wall......

and it won't cost Mexico OR the United States a dime. What a jackass. I'm loving the avalanche of comeuppance rolling in tRump's direction at the moment. I hope it doesn't end until he's buried up to his comb-over.

5. Hah...can't help thinking about this:

6. This was back when they tried to comply with the law thru deviousness

now they don't worry. they are the law

7. Id love to see the Ghoul

go down. We don't have enough courtrooms and judges to prosecute all these criminals.

9. My bet would be on Trump refusing

to turn over the memo. Refusing to comply with a court order is what ultimately brought down Nixon. It's a stupid thing to fight, but we're talking about our fair leader here.

10. Or he'll claim he can't locate such a memo, and doesn't remember ever seeing one. (nt)

12. This! n/t

11. You can bet your bottom dollar this will never happen.

They may hurriedly draft a new one and backdate it, but they will never provide the original memo because you can bet it showed his true intent. He's not smart enough to cover that up.
