Trump calls the judge’s block “unprecedented judicial overreach” and says he will take the case “as far as it needs to go,” including to the US Supreme Court.
HONOLULU/NEW YORK – Just hours before President Donald Trump’s revised travel ban was set to go into effect, a US federal judge in Hawaii on Wednesday issued an emergency halt to the order’s implementation.
