economic relations between iran and its economic partners it has done all of that it has prevented. basically dissuade threatened companies from engaging with iran so the economic benefits of the of the nuclear have not been at the level that had been promised well as trump was hosting mccraw a u.s. judge ruled against the white house's previous decision to end a program that protects young undocumented immigrants the scheme known as dhaka shielded thousands of so-called dreamers from deportation and gave them work permits the judge said counseling it was unlawful and ordered it to resume on fisher has more from washington d.c. . always a point to remember what doc is it's the deferred action for childhood arrivals program a barack obama program which essentially protected the children of people who came here as undocumented migrants from deportation and also provided them with two year
8:06 am
ruling what parents know donald trump's white house decided it was scrapping the program it said it was going to be challenged in the courts by texas and other states didn't think it would be able to defend the death of programs and therefore it was ending there have been a number of court cases to this point but i fed will judge in washington d.c. has essentially said that the government needs to come up with a better explanation in his ruling he said that the decision was arbitrary and capricious because the department failed to adequately explain its conclusion that the program was unlawful put a stay on that decision for ninety days which means that the government can appeal but this comes on the back of similar rulings by courts in new york and california as far as the white house is concerned you'll remember the donald trump said that baca is dead he has lambasted democrats saying that they don't want to work with
8:07 am
him to come up with a new program but after being told of this latest decision by the courts the white house said it is come clean studying the decision well bruce fein is a former u.s. associate deputy attorney general he says the ruling is a substantial blow to trump's immigration crackdown. the judge went out of his way to denounce the trumpet administration for what he characterized as just completely flimsy all teary motives that were behind the band had nothing rational about it indeed when the government argued that it feared that the program would be held illegal the government ignored the fact that the most comparable program got to the u.s. supreme court a couple of years ago it was divided four to four so it's obvious it's not a clear cut case one way or the other but i do believe that this will create at least a new renewed effort would seem to be dead in the last month to try to resolve this
8:08 am
in the congress well the courts handle the matter and i would expect to add disadvantageous to mr trump he will probably denounce the judge who was appointed by george w. bush he has a habit when he loses the case to blame it on judges who he believes are in some kind of conspiracy against him now judges are a clubby just like the members of congress are and that will hurt i believe mr trump if he comes out in need tribute to the decision to some personal characteristic it will going to irritate not only judges in general but the u.s. supreme court to be very skeptical about upholding the things that trump does with ulterior motives police in malaysia say they believe two suspects in the killing of a palestinian a hamas member are still in the country but they don't know who they are officers released a new photo image of one of the men thought to have shot saudi at least fourteen times in the box last saturday he was heading to a mosque in kuala lumpur where he worked as an engineering academic from syria has

this man's brother is one of some one hundred fifty million people affected by the trumpet ministrations travel ban he's chosen not to be identified for fear of consular staff permanently banning his sibling from the u.s. he's a good life there's a nothing wrong ever. law abiding paying taxes doing everything the right way and now he's punished and he stuck a bride just because he's from a certain country but under the terms of donald trump presidential proclamation issued in september of last year this man's brother should be eligible for a waiver because he's previously been admitted to the u.s. for work however government statistics suggest only a fraction of thousands of way replications have been approved i feel very anti-american the u.s. is supportive and. you can be whoever you want to be here you can establish yourself regardless of where you come from what your name is what your religion is and this is the exact opposite of the current version of the travel ban affects five muslim majority countries libya somalia iran syria and yemen they're also

restrictions on north korea and venezuela but they're not being contested at the supreme court the government's case is based both on the president's constitutional responsibility to administer foreign affairs and the president's congressional authority to restrict the entry of aliens in the national interest. this isn't the first version of the ban which caused chaos in a week after trying to office the solicitor general argue that this version of the ban is based on a worldwide review of immigration vetting procedure and it's not the judiciary zero to intercede in matters of national security opponents of the. say the president doesn't have unconditional power the law says immigrants cannot be denied entry to the u.s. based on race sex mashonaland birthplace all residents in addition the first amendment of the constitution prohibits religious discrimination. is calling for
8:19 am
a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states and that's the campaign promise that opponents say is unconstitutional and that the administration is trying to fulfill it even as lower courts find it in violation of the law the government say. to the supreme court ignore what the president says don't take anything he says seriously restrict your view to a tiny sliver of the evidence that's before you and disregard the statements that have come out the president's own now a majority of justices appear to signal some sympathy with the government in december when they allowed the travel ban to take effect as legal proceedings continue a ruling is expected by the end of june she overturns the older zero washington. but trump has announced he's sending his treasury secretary to china within days to negotiate ongoing trade disputes over the past few months both the u.s. and china have imposed or threatened tariffs with billions of dollars sparking fears of a trade war the tit for tat measures are overshadowing one of the world's biggest
8:20 am
auto shows that's kicking off in beijing i'm on this let's cross live to adrian brown who is in the chinese capital agents talk of this trade war trump is sending his treasury secretary to what can we read into this. well i think u.s. auto manufacturers executives who are here at this auto show the world's biggest have really been holding their breath darren you know for the past few weeks but i think they're not holding back their brands because even though there is this uncertainty over the state of trade relations between china and the united states the big u.s. auto manufacturers are here and they have to maintain a high profile. because this increasingly is the most important market for their cars for instance general motors sold more than four million vehicles in china last year that's how important this market is and of course china has threatened to impose a terrace of up to twenty five percent on imported u.s. vehicles if indeed things do lead to
8:21 am
a trade war but now we hear the president trump is dispatching a high level delegation involving his most senior trade and economic officials to beijing i understand they'll be there possibly on the third or fourth of may that i think is going to perhaps reassure those u.s. executives here at this auto show that perhaps perhaps we're not heading for a trade war after all but it is early days because china sent a similar delegation to washington last month and they achieved absolutely nothing so take top goes the clock but the fact that this delegation is coming to beijing next week the fact that president trump is sending his most senior economic and treasury advisors is i think possibly you know a hopeful sign at age and as you say this is the world's biggest auto show with china showing off its motor might but what about electric cars. well this is really an opportunity for china to to showcase its electric car
8:22 am
ambitions and since the last auto show with that was held here two years ago china has really unveiled a whole new slew of car of specializing in electric vehicles you know china's government has this this goal that it wants to increase sales of electric cars significantly so that seventy years from now thirty percent of all sales all car sales in china will comprise electric vehicles that is a phenomenal goal but it illustrates i think just how serious the government is here about getting more and more motorists to switch over to electric vehicles now of course china's government has had. an incentive for doing that its cities are plagued with pollution some of that pollution is blamed on the fumes that come from cars but also more of pop in a china want and that interest. lies in the pension it is going to be a real money spinner stuck in thickness this.
