As the son of an immigrant Australian mother, I'm not at that far a remove from those others seeking refuge from the storm today around the world.

A former American serviceman who served in Iraq, where he was born, says his sick mother died a day after being turned away from the U.S. as a result of President Donald Trump’s executive order abruptly banning entry to travelers from seven predominantly Muslim countries.

None of them expected any trouble on their return; Hager is a U.S. citizen, and his mother has lived in the U.S. since 1995. She had a green card. ~~ Green Card Holder Dies a Day After Being Prevented From Returning Home by Trump’s Order, Report Says ~~
