6:30 pm
also the trump administration introduced revised tem rare travel ban today as you can see from the rundown on the side of the screen and these are top talkers tonight at 6:30 we invite to you join that conversation tweet us and let you know what is on your mind. >> and let's get right to it. the president new executive order on temporary travel ban for number of majority muslim naiing and hear what you're saying top five ways devices plan differs from original. it as effect in ten days and that took affect immediately
6:31 pm
and the new record removes iraq and syrians will be subject to the same 95 day ban travelers and 100 day for refugees and it does not affect green card holders and language that seemed to give priority to christians since were removed. >> the air has been focused on making sure whatever would be would be able to pass the muster of the cords that ruled on. it will it hold true? we'll see. that last provision seems to be a major role in it because a lot of people said it established litmus test for religions that predominantly discriminate against muslims. attorney general jeff sessions says it is within the president's pour to make this executive order. >> like every nation united states has a right to control who enters our country and keep out those that would do us harm and this executive order seeks to protect the american people as well as lawful immigrants by putting in place an enhanced screening and vetting process for
6:32 pm
for visitors if six countries. three of these nations are state sponsors of terrorism. and the other three have served as safe havens for terrorist countries and countries where government have lost control of territory to terrorist groups like isil oral kind aand affiliates. >> in this case it seems u.s. and government of iraq came to an agreement on how they screen them that country which is why iraq is removed from the list and some with saying still you don't talk about saudi arabia and other countries. >> which is what we'll hear from the folks arguing against this. >> society for law and policy, caroline, starts us off tonight. >> hi caroline. >> hi, >> what is different from this time to last time or is it the same? >> i guess you could say it's slightly more tailored vering of the same thing. you know it is still target people who h
6:33 pm
to be involved in terrorist activity in this nation. not one of those six countries has had somebody involved in terrorism in this country and no refugees and so it remains big question of what this ban is actually designed to accomplish because protecting us from terrorism doesn't seem to be objective. >> caroline the administration is working on this weeks to maketure is would pass the muster compared to previous travel ban. what sort of opposition do you think we will see? do you think we will see the same kind of opposition we saw the last time around? protes at the airport and protests in front of the white house? >> i think there's still going to be a great deal of protests that is this measure and muslim ban and you can renainl it and put a bow on it it boils down to the same thing. it's a little less poorly drafted in that they recognize people already have valid legal status in
6:34 pm
be swept up and the broad ban is really still going to meet with strong opposition both in the courtroom and out in the general public. >> you heard jeff sessions talk a moment ago saying the president has the right to preclude certain people from the country and immigration and nationality act of 1952 and any aliens or class of aliens in the united states that would be detrimental to interest of the united states could be band by president or entry could be suspended and that seems to be language that the trump administration goes back to. so, what's wrong with that. >> you know it does not allow the president to do thungz irrational. so i think what's atsh uhere you can look at the department of home land security just put out a report that says newspaper of these countries is associated with terrorism in this country. unfortunately terrorists accounts were person dated way more by otherpe
6:35 pm
countries. so i think the basic thing we need to ask of our president and dovrment is to do things rational. we want to be safe from ter six but this is not the way to go about it. >> caroline, thank you for joining us we appreciate your per pecktive tonight. >> she perceives this as muslim ban. it's got in their word. put it has a lot of people talking. >> the council of islaming relations reacting to the new travel band our own ronica cleary has that angle. >> thanks, jim, shawn, we're outside of care. this is council on islamic american relations and earlier today they held a press conference responding to new executive order. they're calling it muslim ban 2.0 now during today's remarks they called this new executive order a partial victory. however they did say that they still feel sgrim nature against muslims and they believe i
6:36 pm
unconstitutional and i asked how it could be a victory or partial victor dwri if they feel there's these very serious concerns and i had a chance to ask them about something the attorney general said earlier today. he said that they're in fact 300 refugees being investigated by the fbi drpinging forth this example of why this executive order is necessary. i asked him to respond that as well. take a listen. >> we believe trump administration was forced to change language and we consider that a victory. however it is partial victory because we believe still this new order target exclusively muslims and common denominator among these six countries is being muslim. >> what does that mean under investigation for potential terrorism either somebody did something wrong and should be arrested or they have not and why would you indat
6:37 pm
they may do something wrong in the future and it just is one of those figures that you wonder where it comes from and what it actually means. >> when you drive up to care's headquarters you cannot help but notice this large sign muslims register here and in small writing underneath says just kidding not on our watch join care in depending we religious freedom today. during today's remarks they noted register me first web site. takes play on words to something they feel is brought up during the campaign. this idea of muslim registry and we're not seeing that presented or suggested by the trump administration now. but you say they have fears of that and with that asking people who support their cause to register and call to them for action. as time progresses with things they're concerned about possibly coming out of the
6:38 pm
back to you. >> the other big story tonight a brewing war between white husband and fbi after trump claims former president obama wire tapped him though he did not bring evidence. >> in unprecedented move james comey asked the justice department to publicly reject the klailz. democratic strategist and professor at george washington management and sullivan is with us tonight. >> spencer let me start with the you fbi director said no go and forler director of national intelligence say it didn't haten and forler president obama denied it. >> democrats say it's another way to divert away from investigation into russians medaling in the election. >> we have to recognize director comey as a pawn. depending on the year the left or right doesn't
6:39 pm
recognize him as villan or hero. with director comey back in the news and public eye these allegations again get back to trump space. trump is talking to base and it puts a focus back on former president obama in the election you know changes topic from the defensive posture that president trump was in the past week. we were talking again about the election and president obama and although president obama was not on the ballot his policies were and some felt left behind by these policies. >> let's bring you in on this conversation we had the statement it was rather extraordinary. president owe bham amany times blamed george w. bush for one thing or another. this is a whole different plateau. >> i don't get how it helps trump. it he gave a great speech by 48 million people and 76%
6:40 pm
had favorable reaction. why is he constantly stopping his momentum. it seems like every time he builds up momentum he says something like this that distractsing from it. >> let me ask you this spencer, i ohno you were saying this is playing to the president base but when you see the tweets that came out over the weekend accusing former president of felony and then actually short time later seeing him go after arnold schwartz naiinger for a completely different reason who is that for for the same base? and do you think these are the actions of someone who should be the president of the united states? >> look president trump surprise outsider and he legged by outsider and electorate voted him because he was begun the status quo the fact he's governing in a different way should not be surprised. every president since fdr or before them communicated in different ways. >> but specifically his tweets as president sp
6:41 pm
weight more than anybody else in the united states. it plays out to people around the country and they're also looking at that from us. >> i would argue fire chats holdle weight and former president obama addresses were to hold that weight and of course president trump twitter hold that weight and maybe future president would snap chat at 4:00 in the morning. >> we don't want that anybody snap chatting at 4:00 in the morning. >> he was elected as outsider and will govern as outsider and that should not be a surprise. >> we want quick sound kellyanne conway they asked her about this and this is what he he had to say. >> people sdevb to know why not include in existing investigation into russia this aspect that whether or not this actually happened. the other things going on here we have a double standard for anon us in sources and media loved anonymous sources for anything and everything that can be
6:42 pm
negative in administration and yet they refused to give any credibility to such sources when it may be something positive or sculptory. >>fy sat at that anchor desk and made that same claim that president obama was wire tapping president trump you're damn sure i would have to bring a fact to the table. that's part of my job as journ sfwliingt that's right. >> and i think what is frustrating to a lot of people the white house said we're not talking about this anymore. don't they offer that to the american people or owe that to the american sglem yes but a free with kelly and i think the congress should investigate all this and for sake of republicans they should do it quickly. in 5 years they had precedencey in both chambers of congress six years. they have amazing opportunity to get things done and keep getting distracted by side issues. >> gentleman i don't think side issue will stot stop any time soon. we'll continue this co
