Donald Trump's revised travel bans suffers another blow

US President, Donald Trump's revised travel ban targeting six predominantly Muslim countries has suffered another blow after a federal judge in Maryland became the second to temporarily block the new order.  

The new executive order, which includes several changes from the original order signed by Trump on March 6, bars citizens of Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen for 90 days excluding Iraq and and also suspending all refugees for 120 days. 

Judge Theodore Chuang on Thursday ruled in a case brought by the ACLU and other groups representing immigrants, refugees and their families.

The decision comes a day after US District Judge Derrick Watson from Hawaii issued a temporary restraining order over the ban hours before it was set to go into effect.

According to Mr Chuang, he said Trump’s executive order was “the realisation of the long-envisioned Muslim ban” and also pointed to comments made by Mr Trump throughout his campaign.

In reaction to the new development, Trump said the decision "makes us look weak" and vowed to challenged the decision.

“This is an unprecedented judicial overreach,” Trump said. “You don’t think this was done by a judge for a political reason, no?”

“This decision makes us look weak. We’re going to fight this terrible decision all the way to the Supreme Court. We’re going to win. We’re going to keep our citizens safe, believe me,” he said.

The rulings apply nationwide.
