The U.S. government just won't answer a seemingly simple question: Who was detained at U.S. immigration or deported in the wake of President Donald Trump's executive order barring entry to refugees and citizens of seven mostly Muslim countries?
U.S. District Court Judge Carol Bagley Amon ordered the government on Feb. 8 to respond to a request in a lawsuit over the travel ban for a list of people who were detained or removed under the executive order, the countries they were sent to and the flights they were put on.
The government's answer: zero being detained, as of Feb. 7. Also, no one's been deported as of Feb. 7, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
