Washington Week with The Atlantic

Two federal courts block new travel ban

7m 53s

Two federal courts have prevented President Trump's revised executive order banning travel from six Muslim-majority countries. Trump defended the "watered down" plan and vowed to fight it, but many American businesses are wary of Trump's immigration plan. Plus, Trump visited the Nashville home of former President Andrew Jackson and praised his populist Democratic predecessor.
