in a statement it said, "the department ofjustice intends to file an emergency stay of this outrageousutive order of the president". but then 15 minutes later toned that wording down removing "outrageous". the white house has said it will act to overturn this at the earliest possible time. but the confusion and protests seem set to continue. our correspondent richard lister has been following developments from washington and told us more about the federal judge's ruling. it has been clarified to an extent. i mean, what we were in last week was a situation whereby there were a number of court rulings which in their various ways toned down parts of this executive order and made it actually not apply at all, at logan airport in boston in the state of massachusetts. what this ruling seems to be saying is the entire executive order has to be suspended temporarily, and that applies to the entire country. so last night the department of customs and border protection briefed airlines that in effect this executive order had been suspended, and that they were now free to fly passengers who had p

the offence of sally yates was to issue this memo to her staff at the department ofjustice. said she wasn't convinced that the executive order was lawful, and went on, consequently, "for as long as i'm the acting attorney general, the department ofjustice will not present arguments in defence of the executive order." this is what america looks like! this drama was unfolding as once again protesters had taken to the streets to oppose the ban on refugees coming to the us. that she was fired for defying the president was hardly surprising, but the language used by the white house was. "the acting attorney general, sally yates, has betrayed the department ofjustice by refusing to enforce a legal order designed to protect the citizens of the united states." the word "betrayal" is more usually reserved for spies, for people who have committed acts of treachery. sally yates would say she was doing what she thought was right and upholding the law, but what this episode shows us is how the trump administration sees dissent, and how it's going to deal with it. in essence, you're eithe

i think it is likely that a sessions administration at the department ofjustice isn't going to seak toreak new ground, but i think that it will faithfully enforced the law. the other criticisms of mr sessions are that he is essentially going to be donald trump's puppet. is this something that is likely to happen, do you think? you know, i doubt it. i mean, i understand that you hear that sort of criticism all the time, and it started when robert kennedy, the brother of presidentjohn f kennedy, was made the attorney—general. but look, sessions is very much likejohn ashcroft, who was the attorney—general in the george w bush administration, who was considered by many to be a puppet. and, when push came to shove, he stood up to the administration and refused to sign a particular warrant. i would expect that sessions would do the same thing. indeed, we've had something of an object lesson today, whenjudge gorsuch, the nominee for the supreme court, suggested that the president's comments about the court were disheartening and a bit out of line. i think you find people grow into these offic

at this stage we have not heard whether the department ofjustice has filed that appeal we were just hearing said quite clearly after this ruling they would move ahead with it, but publicly they haven't said anything about whether or not they have filed that appeal as yet. but it would be extraordinary if they didn't. clearly donald trump believes he is within his rights to have made this presidential executive order. he feels it is part of his duty as president to ensure the security of the people of america. and if he wants to exclude foreign nationals on the basis of national security he has every right to do so. they do not believe that the order from the judge in seattle is appropriate or will be allowed to stand. but as things stand we have not heard yet whether or not they have filed that appeal to the appeals court. ultimately, as i said in my piece, it seems likely that once the lower courts have had their say and this goes back and forth, it'll have to come here to the supreme court where the judges will have to make a final decision. and we'll find out how this story — and many ot

lawyers from the department ofjustice argue the countries listed pose a terrorist threat. from that hearing is being streamlined live over the internet and at least 100 thousand people are listening to it now. let's just hear one of the early exchanges between the one of the judges and a lawyer representing the department of justice. has the government pointed to any evidence connecting these countries with terrorism 7 the proceedings have been moving very fast. and the strongest point on that in that is that in 2015 and 2016, both congress the administration made determinations that these seven countries posed the greatest risk of terrorism. in doing so, restricted visa waver to people who had even traveled to those countries over the past five or six years. the executive order relies on that determination. that is, i think, the strongest kind of reliance where president is relying on congress's determination that these are countries of concern and congress's procedures to identify countries of concern based on significant terrorist activity in the countries. well — presi

in motions filed by the two sides, the department ofjustice said the executive order is a lawful exercise but the states of washington and minnesota, which brought the case, argue the list of countries targeted by the order is intended to disfavour muslims, which is a breach of the constitution. when we first created the constitution, one of the things we said was there would be no religious tests for office. this goes even further and erects a religious test for entry. and that just goes beyond what the constitution has. this executive order was done in the bests was done in the best interests of protecting the america people and this is something that has broad support from american people from one coast to the other and we are going to continue to do what we have to do and this president's committed to making sure this country and it is people are safe. around 130 tech companies are also opposing the ban, arguing they need access to foreign talent. among then are two companies owned by elon musk — spacex and teslar. he has now chosen to resist the ban, despite being on the president's

now, that is really central to what the department ofjustice is arguing.not people should be admitted into the united states on questions of national security, and they are saying that this executive order did exactly that. it identified people that the us believes are a potential risk to national security, and so the president was well within his right to decide that he would then impose restrictions. the other thing that they are arguing is that the state of washington, which is who brought this case to the attention of this judge in seattle who made this order, actually can't bring constitutional claims of the type that it constitutional claims of the type thatitis constitutional claims of the type that it is making. so this is what they are hammering out at the moment, and it could be that at the end of all this it will be a fairly narrow, technical decision simply about whether or not the states of washington and minnesota have the right to make the kind of case that they did, and that thatjudge has they did, and that thatjudge has the right to suspen

the role of the department ofjustice, in our system, is unique and it is part of the executive and carriessident works and there were circumstances in which there was a desire on the part of leaders in the white house for the government to ta ke white house for the government to take a position on certain cases, where, with my team, when we analysed it, we felt it was not consistent with what the rule of law required and we were not going to do it. we said no, we cannot do this andi it. we said no, we cannot do this and i will say, in every instance in which we did that and there were not many, just a few, but every time we did it, the president was 100% respectful on thatjudgment. did it, the president was 100% respectful on that judgment. the question is are you confident that the same set of circumstances will apply this time? i think it will require a new solicitor general with integrity and with courage, because under the best of circumstances, one in that role has to stand up to the white house and this, i do not think is the best of circumstances but i am hopeful they will find a ca
