From the site:

President Donald Trump’s “Muslim ban” has caused over 100,000 visas to be revoked, despite the government claiming that the ban only affected hundreds.

After a pair of brothers from Yemen sued the government for being forced to fly to Ethiopia after arriving at Dulles International Airport on Saturday, an attorney for the United States government revealed that over 100,000 visas had been revoked since the Muslim ban took effect. The attorney could not say how many foreign nationals in total had been forced to go home from Dulles International Airport as a result of the Muslim ban.
