Donald Trump’s ‘Muslim ban’ allowed by US Supreme Court.

The Express reports:
The ban is now set to go into “full effect”, although it is not clear on what timescale this will happen.

Legal challenges against the controversial measure are still making their way through the US courts, and have not yet reached the Supreme Court.

Challenges by the state of Hawaii and the American Civil Liberties Union said the latest ban, as in its earlier iterations, discriminates against Muslims in violation of the US Constitution and is not permissible under immigration laws.

However it will nonetheless go into full effect as the legal proceedings continue.
It appears President Trump understands basic legal concepts like "standing" in federal court.
