        @tparsi is there any evidence that border agents are asking about Trump? What is the source for this?

          @tparsi @EliotHiggins That is unconstitutional. Everyone is protected from US govt infringing on 1A and denying equal protection.

          @Professing_Prof @tparsi @EliotHiggins Equal protection does not at all apply to aliens outside of the US seeking entry. Unfortunately.

          @tparsi Do you think it'll get better or worse as the EO goes into full effect?

          @AdotSad @tparsi I think it could go either way. B/c there's no waiver available for a 212(f) denial of admission/entry the administration..

          @AdotSad @tparsi should be on firmer legal grounds if it excludes everybody rather than using discretion and letting some in (if that's...

          @briantcairns @AdotSad @tparsi deemed an impermissible waiver). In that case, maybe they'll modify the EO to at least exclude LPRs entirely.

          @briantcairns @AdotSad @tparsi On the other hand, they could decide to deny everyone, which is obviously worse.
