Texas Mosque Set on Fire Hours After Trump Signs Immigration Order
------------------------------------------------------------------

In Texas, a mosque went up in flames just hours after President Trump
signed Friday's executive order. Police have opened an arson
investigation into the fire, which completely destroyed the Islamic
Center of Victoria around 2 a.m. on Saturday. Meanwhile, a Massachusetts
man faces hate crimes charges after he kicked and mocked a Muslim woman
wearing a hijab in a lounge at JFK airport in New York. Police say the
man shouted, "Trump is here now! He will get rid of all of you!"
