"Gold Star father Khizr Khan’s “freedom to travel abroad” is reportedly under review, and he says he doesn’t know why.

Khan was scheduled to speak at a luncheon in Toronto on Tuesday “on what we can do about the appalling turn of events in Washington — so that we don’t all end up sacrificing everything.” The two-hour event was to include a presentation and then a question-and-answer session.

But Khan was told late Sunday that his traveling privileges were under review, according to Ramsay Talks, which organized the luncheon....

Khan has been a U.S. citizen for more than 30 years, and his son, Humayun Khan, a University of Virginia graduate and Muslim American Army captain who died in Iraq in 2004, was posthumously awarded a Bronze Star and Purple Heart."

Trump and INS in cahoots? If there's a connection, a lot of people may think this is a disqualifying incident. You'd want to be rid of a president that had this happen. Arbitrary exercise of power in vengeance for free and entirely patriotic speech by a political opponent. Fundamental breach of the constitution in a dozen ways.
