>> ♪ >> president trump's travel ban is set to take effect in just a matter of hours. at the same time homeland security wants airports around the world to step up security. >> as you you can see from the run down on the side of the screen this is one of the big talkers at 6:30. we invite you to join the conversation as usual. just use that #5at630 when you tweet us. >> first though we have some breaking news tonight. the house approved kate's law. the bill stiffens punishments for immigrants who reenter the united states illegally. the house also passed a second immigration measure. it would strip federal dollars from sanctuary cities that would shield residents fro
6:31 pm
authorities. we have been talking about that leading up to this vote o the bill will now head to the senate. it's no not a done deal yet. >> president trump's travel ban 2.0 goes into effect tonight at 8:00. it will limit travelers from six majority muslim nations. they will only be allowed into the u.s. unless they have a bona fide connection. the administration is also leaning on airports and airlines overseas to increase their own security for flights into the u.s. >> okay, so a lot of changes here. joining us tonight is nicoh espirano. i apologize. i knew i was going to butcher your name. thank you for joining us nonetheless. what are you telling folks, international travelers how to deal with this and how are you advising them and what can they expect. >> well, for the folks arriving shortly as early as this evening, for those who
6:32 pm
have valid visas, the extent of the current ban shouldn't affect those individuals. but we're also encouraging those attorneys who want to go to airports to monitor the situation to coordinate with the local efforts to do so so that we don't have a repeat of what happened when president trump first tried to install his travel ban. >> in fact i understand there are a group of lawyers that are headed to dulles airport to be there this evening. let me ask you a little bit about some of the details of this. they're saying need to have a bona fide relationship, a family relationship or connection here to the u.s. in terms of a job or be related to, you know, a spouse or a parent but it doesn't include fiancés or grandparents or aunts or uncles. do you expect to see some pushback on that part of this. >> absolutely. the idea that a grandparent or a grandchild isn't a close familial
6:33 pm
common ideas of what a family s with respect to that fiancés one of the plaintiffs in our case was petitioning on behalf of his fiancée and the supreme court in its decision looked to the plaintiffs in our case and in the hawaii says as examples of the type of folks who -- who would not be barred by the travel ban. and so it seems really strange that the federal government has pushed for such a narrow reading of what a family member is. >> right. all right a you're obviously with the immigration law center as we mentioned national immigration law center so what is in the works now moving forward given this new development litigation-wise? what's going to be happening on that side of things. >> well, obviously the supreme court has said it's going to hear the fulmer f
6:34 pm
case. we're exploring all options to ensure that the supreme court's order and the lower court's order are enforced to their fullest and that means not extending the ban further than the supreme court indicated that it should be. >> nicoh we got about 30 seconds here just to play devil's advocate the trump administration would say we're doing this to keep america safe, to keep what they believe to be potential terrorists out. what's your response to that. >> their own national security officials said this isn't the way to do it and yet they've persisted down this path despite that fact. >> all right. nicoh espirot with the national immigration law center we and appreciate you joining us tonight. >> thank you so much. >> with those major issues going on in the country the president is still taking time to go after the media and today's target of choice msnbc host joe scarborough and micco brzezinski. the president tweeted "i heard poorly rated "morning joe" speaks badly of me
6:35 pm
then how come low iq crazy mika and crazy joe came to mar-a-lago and insisted on joining me. she was bleeding bad from a face-lift. i said no. >> i was stunned when i saw that and -- i was, too. >> it's not just us. i mean, there were all kinds of even gop lawmakers who came out -- i know one republican senator who is a frequent critic of the president tweeted please just stop. this isn't normal. it's beneath the dignity of your office and that's just one of several but i was stunned that you attack somebody personally when you're the president of the united states. >> even speaker ryan even came out and said, you know, this is not appropriate for the president to be saying these types of things. >> but the question is can anybody stop it. >> right. >>we asked you guys about this on facebook, have the president's tweets gone too far. denise wrote whether you support him or not this is not okay. >> gus chimed in no freedom -- no.
6:36 pm
it is mr. president. >> kelsey added i think the media has gone past the point of too far in your biased coverage of him. you treated obama with kid gloves. you bent over backwards to kiss up to him. still i don't care w what you say -- this is not first time we've seen when he was a candidate, when he was a private sit is that we saw attack on rosie o'donnell. on the other hand we always hear when he gets punched he punches back harderrer. >> forcefully that's for sure. >> let's bring in ronica cleary. what are folks saying. >> reporter: they're saying everything, shawn and sarah. a wide variety of responses. we're having a lively discussion about this on twitter. we took to the streets here. take a listen to the handful of responses that we found right around the white house. >> predictable and tacky. >> i think you got to read into trump. he has meanings and thoughts and
6:37 pm
he says usually and they don't read into his mind so he's a new york oh, i'm from new york so i understand what he's saying. >> i always think it's sad when we can't just be positive and when we can't think and say things that are positive, i will say that he is our president and so i don't want to say anything bad about the president. i think we all come from different perspectives and from his perspective maybe that's acceptable. >> i don't know why you'd repeat a story like that. it's just a weird thing for someone to tweet. >> reporter: well, now let's go to twitter. we asked for your responses using that #5 at 6:30. the first says it is what it is, mika fired the first shot, got an expected trump response. now she gets the victim spotlight. #5at630 and another person on twitter says #5at630 nobody has reported what joe scarborough and mika brzezinski said this morningaidg in today's press briefing sara
6:38 pm
handful of quotes and comments that the administration is pointing to that maybe led to a response like this. not just aimed at president trump but also at staffers and people who make appearances on behalf of the president on shows like "morning joe," in defense of those responses and as you both said the administration is defending what they're saying, saying that he fights fire with fire. let's keep that discussion going. i'd love to hear from you. way in use that #five at six at 6:30. >> ronica thank you very much. not quite back to the drawing board. a day after calling off a healthcare vote senate majority leader mitch mcconnell is now trying to send a revised version of that bill to the congressional budget office as soon as tomorrow. the hope is a vote can still take place this summer. the president supports a plan saying it will include a great surprise when it does come to a vote. >> but there are still notice nine gop senators who still say i can't sign off on this as it stands right now. i think this is
6:39 pm
really tough for them to get to that point. >> uh-huh. >> but there's speculation that they would get there, you know, it comes back and then they end up passing it in the end similar to what happened in the house but then it's still not a done deal 'cause you still got to reconcile the house bill with the senate bill. >> i thought it was rather telling, too, that mcconnell was indicating that they may have to work with democrats on this and reach out to them which i thought was interesting because i thought that was the point all along anyway that they were supposed to do but, you know, bipartisanship, they might have to result to that. see what happens. >> well, the road to the white house takes us to loudoun county where a virginia man charged with sharing top-secret documents with a chinese agent appeared in court. >> fox5's paul wagner joins us live with the very latest on this story. hey, paul. >> heys, ladies, kevin mallory will be able to get out of jail if he meets few conditions, $10,000 bond and he will be in home confinement. we did learn some new information today. the prosecutor in the case was asked by the judge if any new

6:41 pm
and wounded in iraq. the reason he went to government officials is because he was concerned the people he had met in china what part of the intelligence community and he was not going to "betray his country." but the lead prosecutor in the case said there was evidence mallory was going to sell other documents to the chinese. he understands trade craft. lied to the fbi. and the chinese have great incentive to get him out of the country to see what is in his head. prosecutor john gibbs told the court that the chinese gave mallory a phone to communicate with them and had indicated he was getting setting up a bank account in another name where the chinese could allegedly deposit money. prosecutors argued that mallory has money troubles and the only money he made this year was the $25,000 mallory says the chinese had paid him for two white papers. now, the judge also asked the prosecutor if other classified information may have been found inside the house. the prosecutor told the judge that some of it is
