I am going to read another story. This one is from NBC Boston. ``Protesters Rally as Doctors, Students Blocked From Entering Country After Trump's Orders.'' At Boston's Logan International Airport, at least six people from Iran were detained Saturday after their flights landed in the U.S. A Federal judge in New York issued a temporary stay late Saturday for all detainees affected by Trump's executive orders, which barred all refugees from entering the United States for four months, and indefinitely halted any from Syria. Trump argued the ban is needed to keep out ``radical Islamic terrorists.'' A tweet by Samira Asgari, an Iranian doctor, stated that she was denied boarding when she arrived for her flight to the U.S. from Germany. In a Skype interview from Switzerland, Asgari told us she had planned to come to the U.S. to start a study at Harvard Medical School analyzing tuberculosis. ``My view of America of course, doesn't change because of a decision a politician makes.
