| The fallout from President Trump's temporary ban on refugees to the U.S. struck with full force Saturday, blocking some travelers from boarding their planes overseas, forcing others to turn around upon arrival in the U.S., and prompting customs agents at New York's JFK Airport to detain at least a dozen people. About 50 people were detained at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport and some families were left waiting for hours for relatives stuck in the process. The growing chaos also sparked legal challenges, airport protests, condemnations from politicians and denunciations from advocacy groups. In his first remarks on the order since he signed it, Trump said: "It's not a Muslim ban but it's working out very nicely. We're going to have a strict ban, and we're going to have extreme vetting, which we should have had in this country for many years."
