CNN is fishing for stories of people being negatively impacted by the travel halt so they can run more stories bashing Trump. That was the idea, but apparently conservatives have been blowing it up making up fake stories and saying the impact has been that they feel safer. The number is 646-535-9720.
Here are some stories they've already put up.

lol at one of them not postponing, but cancelling their wedding because the wife couldn't pass a background check to get here soon enough. And another whose parents can't come see her graduation, even though the halt will be over by the time she graduates. Another guy from Iraq said he was detained briefly and then released and said "America is the greatest country". Don't know how CNN let that one slip through. I'm a little confused about who's getting turned away and who's getting released.
