US Supreme Court might uphold Muslim travel ban as Macron challenges Trump on climate change, Iran nuclear pact

It’s looking like the US Supreme Court might actually uphold The Donald’s so-called Muslim ban. The five conservatives on the nine-member court “indicated during arguments in the high-profile case their unwillingness to second-guess [Donald] Trump on the national security justifications offered for the policy,” Reuters reports.
In other news on The Donald, French President Emmanuel Macron “challenged many of the US president’s policies on Wednesday, urging the United States to engage more with the world, step up the fight against climate change and stay in the Iran nuclear pact for now,” just a day after making a public show of their bromance during his visit to Washington, DC. Reuters and Bloomberg have more.
