attorneys general from major states all saying trump's executive order is unconstitutional. president trump attacking all those who don't agree. attacking the courts and the media falsely claiming we under reporter rohr attacks. we're now in day 19 of the trump presidency. let's bring in our coverage with cnn's joe johns live at the white house. >> the first question is whether the president's immigration order ought to be reinstated until a court reaches the substantive issues, the immediate fate of the president's travel ban to be decided in an hour long hearing later today. three federal judges from the ninth circuit court of appeals will hear arguments from the justice department and from attorneys general from washington state and minnesota. these two states argue that the trump administration has failed to show the country would be

irrepresei irreparably harmed. >> we believe strongly that it is unlawful and unconstitutional. >> reporter: the president stoking fears. the threat from radical islamic terrorism is very real. courts must act fast. the justice department urging the appeals court to quickly reinstate the president's ban maintaining the executive order is a lawful exercise of the president's authority. >> he has broad discretion to do what's in the nation's best interests to protect our people and we feel very confident. >> reporter: the president using the legal travel ban to, quote, admonish the dishonest media. >> they're determined to strike our homeland as they did on 9/11. it's gotten to the point where it's not being reported. in many cases the very, very dishonest press doesn't want to report it.

they have their reasons and you understand that. >> the white house released 78 attacks but many were heavily covered by cnn and other media organizations. during the visit to u.s. central command on monday the president once again touting his election victory. >> we had a wonderful election, didn't we? i saw those numbers. and you like me and i like you. >> reporter: and in an interview with fox news mr. trump opens up about his relationship with former president obama. >> i don't know if he'll admit this, he likes me. >> how do you know? >> i can feel it. that's what i do in life. like i understand. >> reporter: reflected on the heated campaign and the historic moment the two men rode to the u.s. capital. >> we said horrible things about each other and then we hop into the car and we drive down pennsylvania avenue together. we don't even talk about it. politics is amazing. >> reporter: and what more does the president have to say about his immigration order? well, we'll see. we do expect to see the

president in front of cameras three times today starting at 9:30 eastern time, an event with county sheriffs. chris and alison, back to you. >> we have a lot to discuss. let's bring in our panel. we have errol lewis, senior congressional correspondent david drucker, and jackie ka sin fish and laura. they'll hear arguments on both sides about the travel ban and whether or not it should be reinstated. if the judges don't side with team trump, then what? >> well, we know the doj is saying, look, the district court in seattle shouldn't have second guessed the president's national security judgment here, right? the states don't have the ability to sue in this case but they've also now come up with this fall-back position saying

to the appellate court, if you're going to uphold the seattle district court, then at least try to limit it to the group of people who have been previously admitted to the u.s. like somebody traveling on a student visa. this is the group that the government says is at the heart of the state's complaint. they've now come up with this alternative argument to try to see if they can lessen the blow. >> to back up the political part of the argument, errol lewis, the president went before a centcom, central command audience, and accused the media of underreporting 74, 78 attacks that happened in the year as proof that we are denying the threat. it should be appointed. no one is quicker to accuse the media of covering events than the media.

i have a list of every one of these events. none of them has less than hundreds of story counts. many exceed the 3,000 hit count that you're allowed when you search for something like this online. let us just show you a quick montage of some of the events that the president referenced. >> good morning. here we are in paris as part of cnn's continuing coverage. >> the new developments telling how police uncovered the cell. >> more attacks were planned but were, apparently, quote, ready to go. >> we're in san bernardino, california. there is a lot of new information. >> a stunning admission from the friend of san bernardino shooter. >> breaking news in the plane crash that took the lives of 224 men, women and children. >> we stand here along the promenade here in nice where 84 people were killed. >> this is a nation -- >> this is a problem. if i'm not there, alison's not there, there's somebody from cnn everywhere where something like this happened. what is the political currency? >> it's worth pointing out.

there are people pulled off vacation if they're anywhere in the region, they'll drop what they're doing and do a lot of this saturation coverage. i see this more of what the trump administration has been pretty open about. this goes all the way back to the convention and on the campaign trail where they said they are specifically trying to discredit the media as a source of information, that it is part of their politics, to make sure people have more attachment to the administration and its words and its interpretation of the truth than to the media. i think it's a fool's errand. i don't know that's going to work. you get these kind of absurdities. you'll try and convince people that they didn't see what they saw. ism i mean, this network, it's saturation because it's 24 hours. you grind out fact by fact what's going on in these terrible situations around the world. >> there's another bizarre part to this list, jackie. the list of 78.

not only are the bataclan attack, which we all know just by name because it was so horrific, the brussels attack, paris where chris and i spent days, orlando nightclub. >> right. >> in addition to those that they're saying did not get enough media coverage, there are also about 30 attacks that they claim dhash they list on here from places like bangladesh and chad where there were no casualties. so why are they including things with no casualties on this list of things that they call major terror attacks other than, it seems, to stoke fear? >> you know, this is something that was -- this is -- this issue in the media, not covering terror attacks was something that info wars, a conspiracy theory site, which the president is fond of started months ago. so the fact that they're picking this up and running with it to

this scale is -- it doesn't make any sense, but that doesn't necessarily stop this administration sometimes. this is another situation where you have the president's staff trying to back up something he said and, you know, frankly not very successfully. >> look, it's something that needs to come out is it is no coincidence, david drucker, that what is not on this list is that when that white guy in canada last week killed six muslims. there, the president didn't tweet about it. it's not on the list. it didn't get any mention. how are we supposed to see that? >> i haven't been able to figure that one out. >> do you really think it's a mystery? >> well, it doesn't play into the president's narrative that the west is under attack from radical islam. now i do think that the president could still highlight that attack because it's a terrorist attack on people in the west and it doesn't undermine the case that we have a real problem with radical islam, but i think what the president is trying to do here is discredit the information

coming from the media because so much of it has been critical of his executive order on refugees and immigration. by discrediting us he makes a better political case i think is how they see it for his point of view in a sense saying the reason we're being critical of this piece of executive work is that we don't believe that there is a problem. everybody -- everybody knows -- not everybody. we all understand that this isn't true, but i think there are a lot of americans, look, i've talked to them. we all go home and talk to people because we live in this stuff every day and they'll complain to you and they'll say, you guys still want to cover this kind of stuff. we'll come back at them, no, that's not true, look at all the stories. oh, come on, you know what i mean. that's what the president is playing into. a lot of people who despite seeing every piece of coverage on this on cnn and other networks go, oh, come on, you guys really don't believe in this stuff. >> i've never heard of cover terror more. honestly, people always say to me, boy, you know, did you have

to go there? did you have to give it so much attention? you know, i'll say -- i won't even say the name of someone who's suspected in a terror attack because i'm worried of copy cat. i've never had somebody say can you give us more terror? can you go to things that are small and make them bigger so we think they're a major attack. i've never heard of that. >> this is madness and offensive. it's offensive when we -- i mean, that we've gone there and felt it and lived it. it has to be called out. there is reality. even if there is a parallel universe, there is still reality and we need to talk about that. >> absolutely. let's not lose sight of what they're trying to do. they're trying to build a case for this ban that sort of was random and came out of, you know, no -- there was no action that caused this reaction so their trying build this case by throwing this misdirection.

you don't know about it because the media isn't covering it. as you said, alison, that is not the case. that's just not true. and, you know, we just got to keep focused on what they're trying to push through. >> the only one that hasn't been mentioned, it got plenty of coverage, but it is the one that happened just last week, muslims were the victims. a white guy did the killing. somebody tried to report early on that he was from morocco, that wasn't true. it was ignored for an obvious reason. looking for an agenda play, there it is. >> they say their list ends december 2016. that's why it's not there conveniently. "new york times," errol, i'll read it for you, talks about where we are with this and what they see as a troubling line ahead. in the same week that he announced his nominee for the supreme court, the president of the united states preemptively accused not only a judge but the whole judicial branch, the most dependable check on his power of

abetting the murder of americans by terrorists. where does that leave us? >> well, it leaves us with one more institution under attack. we've seen kind of a crisis of faith in american institutions that's really kind of the theme that's run through not just this election but really several election cycles now where the polls suggest that people don't trust the media, they don't believe in congress, they don't have as much confidence as they used to in the marketplace and so this -- you know, the judiciary is supposed to be one of those bastians carefully structured where the president nominates, senate approves, lifetime tenure. everything you can do where there's consensus and protected space of this judiciary. it got in the way of the immediate agenda. >> the good news, spin at best. propaganda in the main and outright lies at worse are all cured by the same thing, truth. what this does is empower the

media and just get after the facts. very often this stuff becomes painfully obvious with a little bit of research. >> it will stick around if you would. speaking of politics, democrats are holding the floor of the senate. this is a last-ditch effort to block the confirmation vote of betsy devos, the president's choice for education secretary. these are live pictures from the senate chamber. it literally has been going on all night, this marathon session. they've been speaking. the messages have been obvious trying to overturn the nomination of this controversial choice. cnn's sunlen serfaty live on capitol hill with more. we saw elizabeth warren earlier saying, we just need one more vote, referring that this would already be history. the vice president needed to break a tie. >> reporter: that's right, chris. the reality of the situation up here on capitol hill for democrats. republicans though are confident that they do have the voettes tt betsy devos will be confirmed later today.

they do not expect any additional public defection. they will, indeed, need the support of vice president pence to come up here on capitol hill to cast the tie breaking vote to cement in her confirmation. this marathon overnight session lasted night wee hours of the morning. it's still going on right now. it is essentially the democrats' hail mary pass on all of this to try to convince one more republican senator to break rank. if they get one republican senator, that would sink betsy devos's nomination. that prompting a lot of empassioned speeches overnight on the senate floor. >> if you cannot be a champion for public schools, you should not be secretary of education. >> i feel a personal responsibility to ensure that if i cast my vote as a senator, that whoever takes that office will be tireless in the defense of all the rights and privileges

and liberties of our students. >> and that vote on betsy devos is expected around 12 noon today. looking ahead, there are some additional problems ahead for donald trump's other nominees. you have someone like most recently andrew hudser who's his labor nominee coming out and admitting he employed an undocumented worker for many years. republicans do not think that will derail his nomination. they hope by the end of the week republicans will accept four nominees in place. alison. >> sunlen, thank you. will that marathon session pay off for democrats? can they actually derail betsy devos's nomination? we discuss that with our panel next.

feet. the constitution says advise and consent. they don't have a right to block and be the final word. this is really about ultimately the president getting a nod towards who he wants. how much political leverage is there in opposition? >> i mean, i'm sorry, i don't understand the question, chris. >> advise and consent means take a look, see what you see there. >> right. >> but then ultimately these are the president's choices. >> sure. >> how much political currency is there in opposition to these nominees? >> well, if you're a democrat, this particular democratic congress has sort of vowed to really block the president at every turn. they've cast it in nicer prose, at the end of the day they don't like this nominee, they don't like any of the nominees other than maybe general kelly and general mattis, but in terms of betsy devos, you have two republican senators who say they don't think that this is someone

that should be the education secretary. so i think the benefit of what's going on on the senate floor is they're probably going to end up using these for campaign ads. >> david drucker, betsy devos first seems most imperilled. can democrats peel off one more republican? that's all they need. >> done a whip count internally. i don't see it. they were able to get susan collins and -- but every other republican that is there, the other 50 of them, for one reason or another i think will stick with betsy devos. some on policy, some because they need to build up some credibility with trump after not necessarily being his biggest fan during the election. this is going to be good for them in their primaries next year. i think the thing here to understand is that the democratic base wants the party on the hill to fight. they don't care who, they don't care how, they just want them to say no. we saw this of republicans right

after obama was elected. i think key for democrats once be they get through this confirmation process is can they develop a message, something to say about what they're offering other than no. even republicans, people forget this, even republicans were able to do this. then republican leader at the time, john boehner, came up with this slogan where are the jobs? it sounded trite. it sounded glib. it gave them something to say to put the question back on president obama. democrats need to be able to do that with trump. we haven't seen it yet. >> so forget about how much political capital this one senator would have on their back, you know, if a republican were to turn and be the deciding vote in this. that would be a lot of weight, a big burden and that discourages the outcome. then you wind up 50-50. that means mike pence, vice president of the united states, comes in and breaks the tie. we've never seen it. we haven't seen the president with party power not get a nominee since the 20s. how big a deal?

>> well, it would be a big deal. it would first of all get a lot of attention. the vice president making his way over, casting the deciding vote, history being made, lots and lots of headlines. that nominee, then secretary, would be sort of in some ways fatally crippled and try to sort of carry out her job in the regional offices, in the making of policy. it would really embolden the national education association, teacher's union to say the fight's not over. we're going to continue fighting. you're going to have to fight for every single policy that you get done. very much i think this is a matter of the democratic senators needing to not be less courageous than their base. >> right. >> when you see people out there demonstrating in the seats, to me the iconic picture is senator bob casey at the philadelphia airport when all of the demonstrators rushed down there in white tie and tails. he came from a society dinner, didn't bother to change his clothes and, you know, he's got the whole outfit on, but he's

doing what a politician frankly is supposed to do. you see the parade going by, you better get in front of that parade or at least get in the ranks. >> meanwhile, jackie, andrew puzner, mr. trump's pick for labor employed undocumented worker for years. this should drive president trump crazy. this is what he -- you know, some of what he hung his hat on during the campaign and this used to scuttle nominee's confirmations. no longer. >> no. and it's because the republicans have coalesced around these nominees. you're absolutely right. this exact example took down clinton nominees. but you've also had big budget chair forget to pay taxes. there are interesting things that may have sunk other nominees in the past and they do not seem to matter because there is a determination to put the president's team in place and whether or not the american people have a problem with that

down the road, democrats will sure try to make an issue of it, but that remains to be seen. >> so the point you made earlier about how the democrats need an organizing principle, you don't see opposition to the picks as that. they need something more. they need something more cohesive that goes to the people that they want in their ranks. >> yeah. they need something that tells people what they're about. they need something that they can sort of pin on the president that he's not delivering for the american people, at least in their view and that they can force republicans to have to deal with. that's what republicans did so well during the obamacare debate. it wasn't just about obamacare and dissatisfaction with that, it was about this other issue with jobs and basically saying, what are you doing about the number one issue people really care about? there's so much that the trump administration is trying to do understandably, and there's nothing wrong about that in terms of changing how government works and operates that the democrats have an opportunity there to zero in on something people really care about, jobs and the economy, and saying what are you doing about that? >> panel, thank you very much. got a quick programming note

for you. be sure to join us tonight. look at this. what a match-up. sanders and cruz are going to debate the future of obamacare. cnn's jake tapper, dana bash moderating a special town hall debate. i don't know if the audience is going to get much of a word in edgewise with these two tonight at 9:00 p.m. eastern only on cnn. meanwhile, is russia behind the new outbreak of violence in ukraine? president trump downplaying putin's role in the region. we have a live report from ukraine next. of me and my disc. so this year, they're getting a whole lot more. box 365, the calendar. everyone knows my paperless, safe driver, and multi-car discounts, but they're about to see a whole new side of me. heck, i can get you over $600 in savings. chop, chop. do i look like i've been hurt before? because i've been hurt before. um, actually your session is up. hang on. i call this next one "junior year abroad."

um, actually your session is up. that's why i use excedrin.n hold because of a headache. it has two pain fighters plus a booster and for some, headache relief starts in just 15 minutes. now moments lost to headaches are moments gained with excedrin. [heartbeat]

iran's supreme leader says he's not afraid of the trump administration. ayatollah ali khameni told military officers that mr. trump shows, quote, the real face of america and that, quote, no enemy can paralyze iran. the white house imposed new sanctions on iran after iran's recent missile tests. so far no plans to cancel the iranian nuclear deal as the president vowed to do during his campaign. it hasn't been a big talking point for american politicians,

certainly the president, but there's finally some calm in the ukraine following a week long surge in warfare. the fighting between ukrainian troops and prorussian separatists is the worst that has been reported in months. president trump seems reluctant to call out russian involvement in this situation. cnn's phil black live in ukraine with the latest. phil, we were there nor mh-17. you were actually first on the ground. then we were surprised at the presence of russian influence. what's it like now? >> reporter: what we're seeing, chris, seeing some of the most intense fighting of almost the 3-year-old conflict. we're seeing where the building has been hit. luckily the 65-year-old woman who lived there had fled only 15 minutes earlier. many be other people here were not so fortunate. dozens have been killed over the last week or so in intense

shelling. now ever since that broke out, not long after president's trump and putin spoke on the phone. other western governments have been calling on moscow to use the significant influence to get those pro russian separatists on the other side of the front line to back off and stop shelling civilian areas. now president trump in his interview with fox has discussed breaking that that may not be possible because maybe moscow doesn't control those separatist fighters. take a listen. >> within 24 hours of you on the phone with the russian leader the pro russian forces step up the violence in ukraine. >> yeah. >> did you take that as an insult? >> no, i didn't because we don't really know exactly what that is. they're pro forces. we don't know are they uncontrollable? are they uncontrolled? that happens also. we're going to find out. i would be surprised, but we'll see. >> reporter: president trump is essentially repeating the russian position.

moscow frequently says that it is not a party to this conflict, but that is not a view that has ever held any real credibility internationally where it's broadly accepted that russia trains, instructs and supports those fighters delivering instructions to them. the concern here on the ground in ukraine is that if president trump continues to water down support for the ukrainian government it will embolden the pro russian fighters and moscow, make the ukrainian forces more desperate and there will be more violence. >> it is so important to have you on the ground. thank you for that reporting. president trump pushing back the time line for replacing obamacare. it could be more than a year away now. millions of americans who depend on obamacare are concerned what their life will look like in the future. one family's story next. your me plaque psoriasis. be the you who shows up in that dress. who hugs a friend. who is done with treatments that don't give you clearer skin. be the you who controls your psoriasis with stelara® just 4 doses a year after 2 starter doses.

reminding that president trump vowed to repeal obamacare right away, maybe day one. we're two weeks into the presidency and the idea of a replacement for acac seems

remote. a west virginia family tells us that law is keeping their son alive. cnn's miguel marquez has their story. >> this is his breathing treatment. >> reporter: in the fight for obamacare, the most powerful voices, those like cedric claytors, the 29-year-old paralyzed from the neck down can't utter a word. >> you're okay. >> reporter: ten years ago cedric was an avid gym nist. a rare blood disease required a blood transplant. then he contracted a neurological disorder. over years it paralyzed him. >> reporter: how much is it to keep him going? >> from 6 to midnight is -- >> no sleep. >> the claytors have insurance through their job but obamacare did one thing for them and everyone else, remove the million lifetime limit on care.

anyone who's ever dealt with serious illness knows how rapidly the bills can mount. >> you can go through $1 million, believe me. we went through 600,000 in a month. >> reporter: before obamacare most insurance policies had lifetime and sometimes annual limits on care. the affordable care act got rid of all of it affecting everyone with insurance regardless of whether they got it privately, through their employer, or from medicare or medicaid. if obamacare goes away, do you know what will happen? >> no, you don't really know what's going to happen because nobody's said what's going to happen. >> if we can't afford his medicines, we don't know what's going to happen. >> reporter: cedric's medications alone administered by the handful ground up served intravenously morning and night cost in the thousands. >> we both work. i've got insurance. we make good money and it's

still hard to get by. if it wasn't for obamacare, he would have been dead a long time ago. >> smile for the camera. >> reporter: they have essentially transformed themselves into nurses, a full-time effort. their son's health now as uncertain as their health care. their message to those rushing for repeal. >> come and sit with us one day and see what we go through. that's all you have to do. >> i think what they need to be able to do is put faces to what they are talking about. >> reporter: cedric claytor, his body devastated by disease, still loved and a cause worth fighting for. miguel marquez, cnn, charleston, west virginia. >> that is a family just united in an endless struggle for their kid. just one example of how a law can make all the difference in a life. >> absolutely. that story really brings it home and there are others like that out there. all right. on a much lighter note.

patriots fans getting ready

to hit the streets in downtown boston. andy scholes has more on the bleacher report. people don't know what duck boats are. they are a staple of boston celebration. >> that's right, alison. tom brady has declared today is a holiday in boston. he posted that to all managers in the city adding that today we dance in the streets. now it's going to be a very cold parade later on this morning. that's not stopping the team though from riding through downtown on those duck boats. parade scheduled to get started at 11:00 a.m. eastern. texas rangers and houston police department are on the case of tom brady's missing jersey. brady said he put the jersey in his bag after taking it off. when he came back moments later it was gone. collectors say the super bowl mvp's game worn jersey could be worth as much as a half million dollars. an absolute thriller, cavs down 3-3.

lebron gets it, hits an amazing fadeaway balling out of bounds. the three sends it into overtime. the cavs would go on to win 140-135. just like brady, chris, lebron coming through in the clutch. >> i don't know about that. what brady did in that game was -- >> a little more important for brady. i'll give you that. >> i don't know if the king called the kiss off the glass. >> he did not. >> i don't know. i'll explain what that means at the break. that sounded the wrong way. patriots fans are going to have to bundle up for their big parade. cnn meteorologist chad myers, what are they looking at? >> looking at some snow coming in this morning, could be heavy around parade time. i'm thinking 8 or 9:00 snow could be heavy. 35 degrees. honestly, that's not truly bundling up for a place like boston. 35, 35, 35 all the way through the morning hours. it doesn't change much but the rain does move in. the snow moves away. we get the rain/snow mix later on in the afternoon. this weather is brought to you

by purina. your pet, our passion. around the country, what else are we going to do for today? we're going to see the chance of scattered storms, some could be very strong to severe across the ohio valley. other than that we'll see the potential for that same weather into kentucky, tennessee, mississippi and alabama. this is not a tornado outbreak. we had 40 tornadoes on the ground. this is a warm weather event trying to get into spring down here in the southeast. for you, chris and alison, there is snow on the way. by thursday, 5 to 7 inches for new york city with this next storm here. >> 5 to 7 inches? >> yes. >> okay. duly noted. thank you very much. president trump's travel ban is giving mixed emotions. up next, we're speaking to two muslim men. what are their biggest fears? how is the ban affecting them?

abdominayou may have ibs. ask your doctor if non-prescription ibgard is right for you. ibgard calms the angry gut. available at cvs, walgreens and riteaid. clearly the law is on the

president's side. the constitution's on the president's side. he has broad discretion to do what's in the nation's best interests to protect our people and we feel very confident that we'll prevail in this matter. >> all right. that was white house press secretary sean spicer confident that president trump's travel ban will be reinstated by the federal appeals court. many muslims are watching this case with baited breath. joining us now is director of development haroun mogul. he's a former extremist and now an operative. mubine, i want to start with you. it's always fascinating to talk to you. you were a jihadist once and after 9/11 you had a crisis of conscience and you changed your entire philosophy and you, in fact, began working with canadian counter terrorism officials. you helped foil terror plots and you continue to do that now. you try to re-educate people who

may be geared towards extremism or jihad. how does this travel ban affect your mission? >> yeah, well, i see it from two perspectives. one is the ex-extremist perspective. i was a trainer for a coalition psychological operations, individuals who are in theater, on the ground in anti-isis messaging basically. i was to role play isis. so when everyone tells you that the recruiting bonanza that we have given isis is real, it's very real. it's making it very difficult for people like myself who are on the operational or practitioner's side to combat the isis narrative. >> how? >> which is look, they hate you because of islam. this is the whole point. they hate you because of islam. they're openly telling you that they hate islam or islam hates us, however you want to frame it, and it's just feeding into

their narrative. it's making life very difficult for people who are on the front lines doing the counter messaging. >> isis hates the west. you're not going to give them anymore incentive. all you're going to do is, one, recognize the threat which is from muslim extremists towards the west and give yourself a cushion during which time you can get vetting that will help you in places where there is no use for database because there is no communication, no digitalized security. >> i don't buy that. part of the reality here is that we have obviously troops on the ground in places like iraq and we have partners that we work with in muslim majority countries to fight isis and groups like isis. imagine for a moment you're an american soldier on the groundworking with iraqi partners and you find out that this travel ban has been put in place. basically what you're saying or this government has been saying, hey, we trust you enough to fight isis but we're not sure

you are isis so we don't want you in our country. what donald trump has done is put our troops in danger. it's working backwards. when you're alienating our allies because it feels good to institute a muslim ban, you have to face the long-term consequences. americans are less safe and there will be more american boots on the ground and more american lives on the front line. it's been pretty successful given the complexity of the situation. >> mubine, you don't just have these counter terrorism conversations professionally where you're trying to combat extremism, you're also a father of five. you have children, i believe, from 8 years old to 17. what are the conversations that you're having with them about the travel ban? >> yeah. it's just a general conversation on the president and the approach of your president.

look, i try to be diplomatic with them. i don't want to, you know, just say he's -- he's this or he's that. they themselves, they hear the narratives from school. they see reactions on tv. they look at -- they hear the reactions of everyone, and i try to explain to them that, look, america is -- it really is a great place. almost like there's a split personality. on one hand there's very, very tolerant people. i mean, i reinforce to them the outpouring of support that muslims have been getting. there was a funny joke about now muslims are praying at the airport and it's okay, so i try to explain to them, you know, to put it in context that it is very abrasive, the manner in which this -- you know, this is being done by the current president, but i remind them that the u.s. is a big place with different kinds of views. >> but, you know, haroun, polls have the country -- you don't need a poll to tell you the

americans are split on this. there are real feelings about our root cause in diversity and the new poll of the statute of liberty. it has a competing pressure which is safety. it's not an accident that the president is calling out attacks over the next two years and saying we could be next if we're not safer. what do you say to people in america, haroun, when you say look at all of these other places, they're getting attacked. i could be next. we could be as safe as possible. we have to do better than we do now? >> one of the biggest challenges of being a muslim in the public space and being a muslim in america is people have an opportunity to collapse you. you are a muslim, therefore, if you're opposed to the travel ban it must be because you're muslim and it must be because at best you're skeptical of the united states. you're not loyal to the united states. that's a frustrating reality. it's part of the way a lot of media sources and hollywood and the way muslims are portrayed

are always collapsing the identify. i had a great conversation before a cnn segment with a republican, with a trump supporter, he asked me what i did. i said part of my work is bringing muslim leaders to jerusalem to study with israeli counterparts and to build bridges of understanding. it's remarkable where the u.s. is only one of the countries that you can do that. >> people are anxious toos whether they'll be allowed back into their own country. sometimes it's about reframing it. instead of seeing threats which is unfortunately how islam is portrayed, you have to see how america creates it. they don't stop terrorism as in prevent attacks but actually weaken and degrade and destroy groups like isis because that's where we want to go. we don't want to keep ourselves relatively safe, we want to win this. >> haroun, mubine, thank you as always for your message. we always appreciate talking to

you. thank you to our international viewers. for you, cnn "newsroom" is next. for our u.s. viewers, "new day" continues right now. radical islamic terrorists are determined to strike our home. it's not even being reported. >> his assertion is laughable. everybody out there knows it's laughable. >> journalists are putting their lives on the line every day reporting on terrorism. >> we will not allow it to take root in our country. >> not going to allow it. >> you don't need access to classified information to know people fleeing terror and torture pose no national security threat. >> the president is operating within his authority. >> you don't uphold the constitution by saying the courts are not valid. >> we should have something within the year and the following year. >> this was a promise made to the american people and we deliver on that zbloms we are putting in a wonderful plan. >> obamacare doesn't work. this is "new day" with chris cuomo and alison camerota. >> good morning. welcome to your "new day." up first, we're going to see our

justice system in action today. a federal appeals court is going to hear arguments on whether to reinstate the president's controversial travel ban. the justice department is claiming that national security is at risk. >> the two state attorneys general suing the president say his executive order is unconstitutional. meanwhile, the president making some incredible claims about the media again. in a speech to u.s. service members he falsely claimed the media under reports terror attacks. it is day 19 of the trump presidency. let's begin our coverage with cnn's joe johns live at the white house. good morning, joe. >> reporter: good morning, alison. the president's misrepresentations, false assertions over media coverage throwing in an element of misdirection from the main event, which is that hearing today to determine the immediate fate of the president's executive order on immigration. three federal judges from the ninth circuit court of appeals will hear
