Of course, qualitatively, the lower-court injunctions in the Biden cases were almost entirely horseshit, while the injunctions in the Trump cases are almost entirely slam dunks

Canadians are vacationing at home. International tourists are choosing Canada.
It's not just the insults, or the tariffs. It's too dangerous to go to America. ICE's powers are without limit. We can't go to a country that treats international visitors as new enemies instead of historic allies.
