News Flash:
Supreme Court OKs Trump/Pence Muslim Ban—This Fascist Outrage Must Be STOPPED!

December 4, 2017 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

Today the U.S. Supreme Court allowed the Trump/Pence regime to go ahead with one of the key fronts toward intensification and consolidation of fascist rule: the Muslim travel ban. The highest court of the land handed down an order allowing the regime to move forward with the ban while legal challenges continue. This was seen as an indication that the Supreme Court itself will likely rule in the regime’s favor when the issue reaches them.

The order means that there will be a ban or severe restrictions on travel into the United States by people from six predominantly Muslim countries—Iran, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, and Chad. The ban also applies to people from North Korea and some from Venezuela. According to the NY Times, “The restrictions vary in their details, but in most cases, citizens of the countries will be unable to emigrate to the United States permanently and many will be barred from working, studying or vacationing here.”

The Supreme Court action comes just a few days after Trump escalated the propagation of anti-Muslim venom by tweeting neo-Nazi anti-Muslim propaganda.

For anyone who continues to hold on to the illusion that some “saner” figures in Congress or the judiciary can be relied on to put a stop to the fascist nightmare: The hour is very late. Every day brings new outrages that make the danger humanity is facing even clearer and more urgent. NOW is the time for millions from all walks of life to join together to act on the demand: This Nightmare Must End: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!
