Good evening, and its great to have you with us here on a monday night, and tonight, the fiery debate across the country, ignited with the stroke of a pin. President trumps executive order, and the ban on seven countries. Tonight, the protests coast to coast at airports across the country, and just days after leaving office, something we rarely see. Former president obama now weighing in. Tonight, major questions about who knew this was coming. President trumps two generals, one running the pentagon, the other Homeland Security. How much did they know about the controversial plan . Abcs chief white house correspondent, Jonathan Karl leading us off. Reporter the white house today firing back insisted its new extreme vetting travel ban is working out just fine i think this has been blown way out of proportion and exaggerated. Reporter this morning, the president himself declared the policy, which temporarily bans people from seven majoritymuslim countries was off to a good start. We actually had a very good day yesterday in terms of Homeland Security. And someday, we had to make the move, and we decided to make the move. Reporter the administration pushing back against stories of chaos and confusion. Families detained in airports. Tsa officials unclear on how to enforce the new policy. Terminals turned into makeshift legal aid clinics, with lawyers offering their services to travelers impacted by the ban. In dallas, the mayor personally apologized to one family that had been detained offering them roses. And sounding off on it all, protestors across the country from new york and boston to [ chanting ] reporter to portland and seattle. The plan was rushed through so quickly on friday top of dark. Protection of the nation from Foreign Terrorists entry into the united states. Thats big stuff. Reporter and secretary mattis was there when the president signed it, and even applauded. But he had no input whatsoever, and was surprised by its contents. And Homeland Security secretary john kelly Whose Department is charged with implementing the policy was getting his first full briefing on the executive order right as the president was signing it. The order also caught Top Republicans in congress by surprise. It was not properly vetted. So you have an extreme vetting proposal that didnt get the vetting it should have had, and as a result, an implementation, we have seen problems. Republican senators, marco rubio and tim scott said the rush to implement the policy created confusion, anxiety and uncertainty. John mccain and Lindsey Graham went further, saying, we fear this executive order will become a selfinflicted wound in the fight against terrorism. The white hou we made sure that the people coming in werent coming in to do us harm. The system worked well. Thats the takeaway from this. Reporter the president brushed off criticism. Saying, if the ban were announced with a oneweek notice, the bad would rush into our country during that week. A lot of bad dudes out there. You heard sean spicer say they think this is working well. Jon karl at the white house. And they appeared to move so quickly on this, they had to clarify a key part of this already . Reporter the key issue here is permanent legal residents of the united states. Those with green cards who are from the countries included in the ban, at first, the officials were saying that they would be included in the ban. Now later, we had a clarification saying green card holders from those countries are now granted waivers and are allowed to travel to the united states. January karl, thank you. A lot of questions this evening about the countries on that list. So we asked our brian ross to go back to 9 11, the boston bombings, and San Bernardino. Asking, where did those terrorists come from . If there is going to be a ban in this country, why werent those countries included . Heres brian ross. Reporter President Trumps ban somehow misses the very countries that have produced the terrorists responsible for the deadliest u. S. Attacks. None of those killers came from any of the seven countries on his list, libya, sudan, syria, iraq, iran, yemen, and somalia. The 9 11 hijackers came from saudi arabia, egypt, lebanon and the united arab emirates. None of them on the list. The wife in the San Bernardino terror couple came from pakistan, not on the list.

And were not letting people in if we think theres even a little chance of some problem. Reporter the white house today said other countries could be added if necessary. Its a 90day review period, and if you have other countries, please let us know. Reporter refugees from somalia, which is on the list, were involved in two us terror attacks last year at a minnesota mall, and at the ohio state university, but in each case, only the attacker died. The president s supporters also point to how the Obama Administration drastically curtailed the flow of refugees from iraq for six months in 2011. That came after the fbi discovered two iraqi refugees connected to al qaeda had made it into the u. S. And were plotting attackers from their new home in kentucky. And brian ross is right here with us tonight. Back to that question we asked the president just why were countries like saudi arabia, afghanistan and pakistan not on this list . There has been no answer from the white house, but the military believes the countries on the list are among the countries isis fighters may try to hide. The secretary said, if you know more, let us know. Thank you.
