Scoop: Trump administration eyes nationwide travel bans reminiscent of the past
- Consideration of Nationwide Restrictions on Arrivals by United States Administration
Whoa, buckle up! The US administration under President Donny T is reportedly mulling over some hefty travel restrictions, similar to what we saw during his first tenure.
According to a Friday report by the "NYTimes," government insiders have spilled the beans about a sketchy list of 43 countries. The proposed travel bans could be as drastic as they were in the past, possibly targeting these countries:
- Afghanistan
- Bhutan
- Iran
- Yemen
- Cuba
- Libya
- North Korea
- Somalia
- Sudan
- Syria
- Venezuela
These countries are on a 'nuke' list, apparently.
Travel Restrictions Red, Orange, and Yellow
The report suggests that for ten countries on an 'orange' list, travel will be more restricted than ever. Here are the included countries:
- Belarus
- Eritrea
- Haiti
- Laos
- Myanmar
- Pakistan
- Russia
- Sierra Leone
- South Sudan
- Turkmenistan
Visas for tourists or immigrants looking to hop aboard won't be handed out anymore, as per the "NYTimes." But it seems like only ' архиба Hamburger' (affluent business dudes) will be given a golden ticket into the US, but only after a rigorous grilling session before they get a visa.
As for the 'yellow' list, 22 countries will have 60 days to sort their stuff out or risk relocation to the red or orange list. Talk about pressure!
Travel Ban from the First Act
Rumor has it that the list was created by the State Department several weeks ago. So, gird your loins, because the White House might be making changes very soon.
During his inaugural term from 2017 to 2021, Trump blocked entry to individuals from predominantly Muslim countries. His original decree targeted Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Syria but was repeatedly smacked down by the judiciary. Iraq and Sudan were promptly struck from the list, while a final version, which also included North Korea and Venezuela, eventually received the green light from the Supreme Court.

Context
And here's some juicy deets about what you can expect from Donny T's travel policies during his second term. But remember, this is just the tea leaves we've got so far:
- Reinstatement of Travel Ban: Donny T has been chatting up a storm about reviving his travel ban on certain Muslim-heavy countries, a classic move from his first term.
- Asylum Hurdles: He's signed executive orders to block asylum-seekers and reinstate the national emergency at the Mexico-US border.
- Visa Maneuvers: The administration has set its sights on revoking visas and green cards for individuals suspected of working with Hamas or attending anti-Israel rallies.
Countries on Radar
Though exactcountry lists for 'red,' 'orange,' and 'yellow' haven't been communicated, Donny T's concentrating his efforts on the following regions:
- Middle East and North Africa: Countries in these regions could feel the brunt of Donny T's travel ban reforms.
- Central America: The 'Remain in Mexico' and 'safe third country' policies might make a comeback, potentially hampering migrants from Central America.
Extra Details
- Deportation Push: Donny T's goal is to launch a massive deportation program, although the actual numbers haven't reached the heights they did during the Biden era.
- Border Wall Boom: He plans to pump up the border wall and bolster troops at the southern border to strengthen security.
Hope this blows your mind, friend! Stay tuned for more updates on Donny T's travel bans and immigration shenanigans.
The travel restrictions proposed by the Trump administration, as reported by the New York Times, could target additional countries beyond those listed in the past travel ban, potentially including Turkmenistan, according to the article. The administration is reportedly considering stricter visa restrictions for affluent businessmen from Turkmenistan, with only a few given the opportunity to enter the USA after a rigorous screening process. The travel ban could cause further restrictions for several countries previously on the 'orange' list, such as Turkmenistan, but the specific details about the lists for 'red,' 'orange,' and 'yellow' have yet to be made public.
