The United States Supreme Court has upheld President Donald Trump's controversial order blocking entry by people from several Muslim-majority countries, rejecting a challenge that it discriminated against Muslims or exceeded his authority.
The 5-4 decision on Tuesday is the court's first substantive ruling on a Trump administration policy.
The court held that the challengers had failed to show that the ban violates either US immigration law or the Constitution's First Amendment prohibition on the government favouring one religion over another.
Lower courts had previously blocked the travel ban, the third version of a policy Trump first pursued a week after taking office in January 2017. But on December 4, the high court allowed it to go fully into effect while the legal challenge continued.
The challengers, led by the state of Hawaii, argued the policy was motivated by Trump's enmity towards Muslims
The White House maintains the ban targets individuals from countries that have failed to provide enough information to allow for proper vetting of prospective travellers. Trump also says it is needed on matters of national security.
The current ban, announced in September, prohibits entry into the US by most people from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen.
It has been widely criticised by human rights and refugee advocacy groups.

Lol... It seems the Trump haters are hiding in their safe space...imagine if the ruling was the opposite? You will see flooding comments of mockery. I knew in the end the Decision on the travel ban would be upheld. Good one I must say.

You must be happy with Trampy now I guess but don't worry we decent and good hearted Americans will laugh last. I must confess that's it's a good week for the Dotard but bad week for Americans. We will not stop resisting him because that's the foundation of our 1st Amendment rights and Democracy.

What do you know about America except the junk being fed to you by the racists ruining my beautiful country. I wish you and your uninformed friends are here and see how much hatred the people you support have for your kind. If they treat Latinos and Latinas like that, imagine how they will treat someone like you they call " mud people ".

And You are still in Nigeria dealing with Bozo Harem, Miyetti Allah and the deadly inferno on Lagos Ibadan express way. Charity begins at home. Your country is caving in and you who can't escape the calamity is foaming in the mouth about a country you can't even get a visa to travel to. Beware before the ritual killing in your village gets to you.
