Confusion over Trump administration’s travel ban led agents to violate court order, watchdog finds
The administration’s rollout of its first travel ban led federal agents to violate court orders by telling airlines not to let certain passengers board U.S.-bound flights, according to an internal watchdog. The Department of Homeland Security’s inspector general, John Roth, notified lawmakers of the violations and alerted them that his findings have become bogged down in a battle with the department over redactions that he said would obscure the true failures of the administration’s handling of the first travel ban.
