Investigation is Demanded into White House and Border Agents Defiance of Federal Court Order

The senators of Illinois, Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin, are requesting an investigation in the unprecedented refusal of the White House and their agents in the Custom & Border Protection to comply with multiple federal court orders to stand down from their illegal "Muslim ban".

Multiple people, legal residents of the US, still remain illegally detained without access to counsel or due process, in international airports.    Thousands more are now stranded internationally,  unable to return home to lives, schools, jobs, spouses, and children.

It appears that the White House, which issued a statement defying the federal order, has no intention of complying with constitutional checks and balances that protect our democratic republic.

This should terrify everyone, from Republicans to Democrats.
