Day 46 of 100
Trump issues the long-awaited revised version of his travel ban, which no longer restricts travel from Iraq, one of the seven majority Muslim countries listed in his original order. The new order, set to take effect 10 days afterward, includes Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Sudan and Yemen as part of the 90-day ban. Meanwhile, when White House deputy press secretary Sarah Sanders is asked on ABC's "Good Morning America" whether the president accepts FBI Director James Comey's statement that former president Barack Obama did not authorize any wiretaps, she says: "You know, I don't think he does."
