PRESIDENT TRUMP’S FIRST executive order banning immigrants, refugees, and travelers from certain Muslim-majority countries didn’t exactly go smoothly. So today he tried again. The “Executive Order Protecting The Nation From Foreign Terrorist Entry Into The United States” officially replaces the earlier order put on hold in court. It’s narrower in scope, but its very name signals the kind of misdirection it represents. Its prospects for keeping dangerous people out are dubious at best. But, as with the previous order, it will almost certainly keep very smart people out—specifically, folks in the worlds of academia, health care, and tech.
