"content": "\u003cp>On Monday, Tehran-born poet Kaveh Akbar began tweeting out poetry written by poets from the seven countries — Iran, Libya, Yemen, Sudan, Somalia, Iraq and Syria — impacted by President Donald Trump’s executive order that \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/trumps-immigration-order-tangle-legal-issues/\">temporarily bans immigrants\u003c/a> from those countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poetry Akbar shared includes work from \u003ca href=\"https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poets/detail/khaled-mattawa\">Khaled Mattawa\u003c/a>, a Libyan poet born in Benghazi who emigrated to the U.S. as a teenager, \u003ca href=\"http://www.narrativemagazine.com/authors/ladan-osman\">Ladan Osman\u003c/a>, who was born in Somalia and raised in Columbus, Ohio, and \u003ca href=\"http://safia-mafia.com/bio\">Safia Elhillo\u003c/a>, a poet born in the U.S. to Sudanese parents, but who didn’t move to the U.S. until 2000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Akbar said he was inspired to tweet Monday morning while reading the poetry of Persian poet Majid Naficy, and wondering what his life would be like without having read Naficy’s work. Naficy, who was born and raised in Iran, \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2012/03/13/31608/los-angeles-iranian-poet-writes-farsi-about-life-a/\">fled to the U.S.\u003c/a> after \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/middle_east-jan-june10-timeline/\">Ayatollah Khomeini\u003c/a> established theocratic rule in Iran in 1979, an experience that appears in Naficy’s poetry. His poem, “Allowance,” begins with the lines: “When creeping out of his tight skin / He suffers pain / And the world becomes small for him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was struck by how I was the very, very lucky beneficiary of this sort of gorgeousness and beauty,” Akbar said. “And how my person would be diminished from a lack of access to these sort of voices.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Akbar often shares poets from a range of backgrounds on his Twitter account and at \u003ca href=\"https://www.divedapper.com/about/\">Divedapper\u003c/a>, a contemporary poetry site he founded and edits. He said he has always felt compelled to share the poetry he loves with others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This seemed particularly important to him on Monday, after a \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/fallout-grows-trumps-new-immigration-crackdown/\">weekend of protests\u003c/a> over the ban. He hoped that in sharing the poetry it would channel the rage people felt “toward a kind of love, and gratefulness” for that writing, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ban also has personal resonance for Akbar, who was born in Tehran and moved to the U.S. when he was two and a half years old. Though English is his primary spoken language, he said “there is a part of Iran that is hardwired into me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11293628\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 267px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11293628\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/kaveh-akbar-author-pic-by-b-a-van-sise-small-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Kaveh Akbar\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/kaveh-akbar-author-pic-by-b-a-van-sise-small-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/kaveh-akbar-author-pic-by-b-a-van-sise-small-683x1024-160x240.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/kaveh-akbar-author-pic-by-b-a-van-sise-small-683x1024-240x360.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/kaveh-akbar-author-pic-by-b-a-van-sise-small-683x1024-375x562.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/01/kaveh-akbar-author-pic-by-b-a-van-sise-small-683x1024-520x780.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kaveh Akbar \u003ccite>(B.

Naficy, who was born and raised in Iran, \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2012/03/13/31608/los-angeles-iranian-poet-writes-farsi-about-life-a/\">fled to the U.S.\u003c/a> after \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/middle_east-jan-june10-timeline/\">Ayatollah Khomeini\u003c/a> established theocratic rule in Iran in 1979, an experience that appears in Naficy’s poetry. His poem, “Allowance,” begins with the lines: “When creeping out of his tight skin / He suffers pain / And the world becomes small for him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was struck by how I was the very, very lucky beneficiary of this sort of gorgeousness and beauty,” Akbar said. “And how my person would be diminished from a lack of access to these sort of voices.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Akbar often shares poets from a range of backgrounds on his Twitter account and at \u003ca href=\"https://www.divedapper.com/about/\">Divedapper\u003c/a>, a contemporary poetry site he founded and edits. He said he has always felt compelled to share the poetry he loves with others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After her story aired, KQED began receiving offers from listeners to provide rooms, storage spaces and anything else they thought might help Jones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a wonderful gesture of kindness, one listener went so far as to pay for an apartment for Jones. Her hope is that this will give Jones the opportunity to focus on her schooling and find a part-time job.

Now she is safe and warm in an Oakland apartment, thanks to a KQED listener.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brittany Jones is a student at Laney College and was homeless when KQED reporter Laura Klivans began talking with her as part of the series \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/12/08/homelessu-a-college-students-life-without-shelter/\">Homeless U\u003c/a>, which explored the lives of three homeless college students, and the growing awareness of this previously invisible population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I first met Jones in the early part of December when I began photographing her going about her days at school, visiting her storage unit and sleeping on BART. Even with the situation she was in, Jones always had a positive and motivated outlook. She could laugh at life and was determined to keep pushing herself to finish school.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/6WFkcQgqhAY'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/6WFkcQgqhAY'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Lawyers representing legal U.S. residents detained at Los Angeles International Airport have successfully petitioned federal judges for their release, including a woman who was granted citizenship and has her swearing-in ceremony next month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Sunday afternoon, the ACLU and other lawyers could not say how many people were still being detained at LAX as part of the enforcement of \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2017/01/27/68510/trump-s-calls-for-new-vetting-measures-to-screen-o/\">President Donald Trump's executive order\u003c/a> temporarily limiting immigration from seven Muslim-majority countries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The order created confusion and protests around the country this weekend, including at LAX where a \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2017/01/29/68555/more-protests-of-immigration-ban-continue-at-lax/\">second day of protests \u003c/a>on Sunday disrupted access to the terminals. U.S. Customs and Border Protection did not respond to questions from KPCC and others about the numbers still detained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“CBP is not communicating with anyone — not members of Congress, not NGOs, not the volunteer lawyers that are at the airport right now,” said Jennie Pasquarella, director of immigrant rights for ACLU of California. “All we have is the anecdotal information coming in through family members at the airport. So we know there are quite a number of people who are still detained — we just don’t know the exact numbers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Saturday, lawyers with the American Civil Liberties Union in Southern California have filed two actions that call for the release of people who were detained at LAX, Pasquarella said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first was a temporary restraining order and petition on behalf of a person who was detained after he tried to re-enter the U.S. with a valid visa. Before the court could rule on the petition, Ali Khoshbakhti Vayeghan was sent to Dubai, where he was held in custody by local authorities working with U.S. border officials. Pasquarella said they threatened to transport him to Iran.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Sunday afternoon, Judge Dolly Gee of Federal District Court of Central California granted the ACLU’s request and ordered Vayeghan be returned to the U.S. on his valid visa, according to Pasquarella.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/josie_huang/status/825848256814931968/photo/1\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second action was filed on behalf of people with valid green cards who were being detained at LAX. Pasquarella said the action was filed around 1 a.m. Sunday, and CPB officials began releasing people around that hour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ACLU is now amending the action to add new information about other people who they have learned are still detained at LAX. Pasquarella said the amended action will be filed \"within half an hour.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ACLU of Southern California also filed a petition Sunday in federal court on behalf of two Iranian-born travelers who are legal U.S. residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The women say their detention violated U.S. law and the First and Fifth Amendments of the constitution, and amounted to discrimination.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection did not respond to questions from KPCC and others about the numbers still detained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“CBP is not communicating with anyone — not members of Congress, not NGOs, not the volunteer lawyers that are at the airport right now,” said Jennie Pasquarella, director of immigrant rights for ACLU of California. “All we have is the anecdotal information coming in through family members at the airport. So we know there are quite a number of people who are still detained — we just don’t know the exact numbers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Saturday, lawyers with the American Civil Liberties Union in Southern California have filed two actions that call for the release of people who were detained at LAX, Pasquarella said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>In his continued efforts to address the number of undocumented immigrants in the country, President Trump took a harder line against cities and jurisdictions whose mayors have said they won't cooperate with his plans to enlist their police forces to help the federal government round up undocumented immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president said that he will cut federal funding to the police budgets of so-called sanctuary cities — like\u003ca href=\"http://fortune.com/2016/11/11/new-york-los-angeles-sanctuary-cities-donald-trump/\"> New York\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://wgntv.com/2017/01/25/city-council-mayor-emanuel-say-chicago-remains-sanctuary-city/\">Chicago\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://dcist.com/2017/01/mayor_bowser_1.php\">Washington, D.C \u003c/a>— which could cost them \u003ca href=\"https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20170125/midtown/sanctuary-city-new-york-funding-how-much\">billions of dollars\u003c/a>. (\u003ca href=\"https://www.macfound.org/fellows/953/\">Ahilan Arulanantham\u003c/a>, a human rights attorney, told us on\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/podcasts/510312/codeswitch\"> the Code Switch podcast this week\u003c/a> that some big legal fights are likely between those cities and the White House over whether the federal government has the authority to withhold that law enforcement funding.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if threatening to cut off federal funding won't make sanctuary cities fall in line, the president is ready to try shaming them. According to one of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/01/25/text-trump-executive-order-on-enhancing-public-safety-in-interior-united-states.html\">executive orders he signed on immigration enforcement this week,\u003c/a> the White House intends to publicize when sanctuary cities do not comply by \"[making] public a comprehensive list of criminal actions committed by aliens and any jurisdiction that ignored or otherwise failed to honor any detainers with respect to such aliens.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not clear yet exactly how the White House will publicize this catalog of crimes committed by immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the available data on crime, immigration and safety in cities does not support the premise for the president's actions. \u003ca href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/news/archive/2016/06/immigrants-and-crime/486884/\">News outlets \u003c/a>and researchers pointed out during the presidential campaign that immigrants who are in the country illegally are less likely to commit crimes or be incarcerated than the general population. The American Immigration Council noted \u003ca href=\"https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/sites/default/files/research/the_criminalization_of_immigration_in_the_united_states.pdf\">in a 2015 study\u003c/a> that the recent period of rising immigration to the United States from 1990 to 2013 also corresponded with plummeting crime rates across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, \u003ca href=\"https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/immigration/reports/2017/01/26/297366/the-effects-of-sanctuary-policies-on-crime-and-the-economy/\">a new study conducted by Tom K. Wong\u003c/a>, a political scientist at UC San Diego, found that there are broad benefits for local jurisdictions that resist cooperating with federal immigration enforcement — they are safer in the aggregate and enjoy stronger economies. \"For the first time we're kind of seeing that crime rates are lower when localities stay out of the business of federal immigration enforcement,\" Wong said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He looked at federal data on immigration detainers, an ICE-initiated 48-hour hold on anyone identified as being in the country illegally. When someone is arrested and detained in a local jail, their fingerprints are cross-referenced with a federal database of undocumented immigrants. If the fingerprints match those of someone known to be in the country illegally, ICE can ask local law enforcement to hold that person as federal officials decide whether to start the deportation process. (There have been court battles over whether holding people for days without actual charges with these federal immigration detainer requests is in violation of the Constitution.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wong compared the data from thousands of counties, those that ICE said did not honor detainer requests and those that did. \"We don't have to make up a definition of what a sanctuary locality is,\" Wong said. \"We have ICE telling us what it thinks a sanctuary county is.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On average, counties that did not comply with ICE requests experienced 35.5 fewer crimes per 10,000 people than those that did. Wong also found that counties that did not comply with detainer requests had higher household incomes, lower rates of unemployment, lower rates of poverty and were less likely to have children under 18 in households receiving public benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The crime numbers did not surprise Wong. Research has shown that working with federal immigration enforcement made it harder for local police agencies to investigate crimes because witnesses and victims who were in the country illegally would be less likely to come forward if they thought they risked being detained and deported. It could be that sanctuary counties have immigrant populations who are more integrated into their social fabric and economies, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The research also revealed that smaller, more rural counties experienced the most significant impact from sanctuary policies on their crime rates (lower) and economies (stronger). Taken together, Wong said, the net benefits to sanctuary cities would offset the impact of Trump's shame offensive on them. \"The ultimate effect is going to be minimal,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

(\u003ca href=\"https://www.macfound.org/fellows/953/\">Ahilan Arulanantham\u003c/a>, a human rights attorney, told us on\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/podcasts/510312/codeswitch\"> the Code Switch podcast this week\u003c/a> that some big legal fights are likely between those cities and the White House over whether the federal government has the authority to withhold that law enforcement funding.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if threatening to cut off federal funding won't make sanctuary cities fall in line, the president is ready to try shaming them. According to one of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/01/25/text-trump-executive-order-on-enhancing-public-safety-in-interior-united-states.html\">executive orders he signed on immigration enforcement this week,\u003c/a> the White House intends to publicize when sanctuary cities do not comply by \"[making] public a comprehensive list of criminal actions committed by aliens and any jurisdiction that ignored or otherwise failed to honor any detainers with respect to such aliens.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not clear yet exactly how the White House will publicize this catalog of crimes committed by immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the available data on crime, immigration and safety in cities does not support the premise for the president's actions. \u003ca href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/news/archive/2016/06/immigrants-and-crime/486884/\">News outlets \u003c/a>and researchers pointed out during the presidential campaign that immigrants who are in the country illegally are less likely to commit crimes or be incarcerated than the general population. The American Immigration Council noted \u003ca href=\"https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/sites/default/files/research/the_criminalization_of_immigration_in_the_united_states.pdf\">in a 2015 study\u003c/a> that the recent period of rising immigration to the United States from 1990 to 2013 also corresponded with plummeting crime rates across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Wong\u003c/a>, a political scientist at UC San Diego, found that there are broad benefits for local jurisdictions that resist cooperating with federal immigration enforcement — they are safer in the aggregate and enjoy stronger economies. \"For the first time we're kind of seeing that crime rates are lower when localities stay out of the business of federal immigration enforcement,\" Wong said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He looked at federal data on immigration detainers, an ICE-initiated 48-hour hold on anyone identified as being in the country illegally. When someone is arrested and detained in a local jail, their fingerprints are cross-referenced with a federal database of undocumented immigrants. If the fingerprints match those of someone known to be in the country illegally, ICE can ask local law enforcement to hold that person as federal officials decide whether to start the deportation process. (There have been court battles over whether holding people for days without actual charges with these federal immigration detainer requests is in violation of the Constitution.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wong compared the data from thousands of counties, those that ICE said did not honor detainer requests and those that did. \"We don't have to make up a definition of what a sanctuary locality is,\" Wong said. \"We have ICE telling us what it thinks a sanctuary county is.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On average, counties that did not comply with ICE requests experienced 35.5 fewer crimes per 10,000 people than those that did. Wong also found that counties that did not comply with detainer requests had higher household incomes, lower rates of unemployment, lower rates of poverty and were less likely to have children under 18 in households receiving public benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The crime numbers did not surprise Wong. Research has shown that working with federal immigration enforcement made it harder for local police agencies to investigate crimes because witnesses and victims who were in the country illegally would be less likely to come forward if they thought they risked being detained and deported. It could be that sanctuary counties have immigrant populations who are more integrated into their social fabric and economies, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The research also revealed that smaller, more rural counties experienced the most significant impact from sanctuary policies on their crime rates (lower) and economies (stronger). Taken together, Wong said, the net benefits to sanctuary cities would offset the impact of Trump's shame offensive on them. \"The ultimate effect is going to be minimal,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Faith leaders who support the president’s executive order as a way to fight terrorism have been far less vocal, ceding the religious discussion to those overwhelmingly opposed to the president’s sweeping immigration order, which suspends refugee admissions for four months and indefinitely bars refugees from Syria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, which runs the largest refugee resettlement network in the country, said it “strongly disagreed” with the prohibitions and pledged to work “vigorously to ensure refugees are humanely welcomed.” The Orthodox Union, the largest association for American Orthodox synagogues, acknowledged the complexities of fighting terror, but said “discrimination against any group based solely upon religion is wrong and anathema to the great traditions of religious and personal freedoms upon which this country was founded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump’s executive order gives preference to refugees fleeing their countries over religious persecution.

The National Security Council is the staff inside the White House that coordinates decision-making by the president on such matters, in coordination with outside departments including the State Department and the Pentagon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's an unusual decision, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/01/29/512268714/the-surprises-from-president-trumps-first-week\">NPR's Mara Liasson reports\u003c/a>. \"David Axelrod, for instance, who had a similar job as Bannon in the Obama administration, never sat in on principals meetings,\" she added. When such figures seen as part of the political wing of the White House have participated in broader National Security Council meetings, it has sparked sharp criticism from the national security establishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten \u003ca href=\"http://www.whitehousetransitionproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/LBJ_National_Security_Forum_National_Security_Council_9-23-2016.pdf\">said last year\u003c/a> that President George W.

The explicit inclusion of Bannon means that Trump's top adviser on messaging, strategy and other partisan issues means he could also be part of decisions about policy toward adversaries, military actions and other such decisions.\u003cbr>\n\"What does it all mean, in practical terms? It's too soon to say. Former national security council staffers say their day-to-day meetings and process were not governed by whatever formal instruction issued by their respective presidents. Political staffers from the White House have attended meetings in the past. The committees invite who they think they need to invite given the topics under discussion — something that will likely continue under [national security adviser Michael] Flynn.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Attorney John Bellinger, who served on the National Security Council during the George W. Bush administration, told NPR's \u003cem>Weekend All Things Considered\u003c/em> on Sunday that presidents structure the National Security Council in the ways they think work best for them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's no law against the president taking advice from anyone he wants,\" Bellinger said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said the headlines about the \"demotion\" of the Joint Chiefs chairman and the director of national intelligence were overblown. Bellinger said time would tell how the council practically operates under Trump and Flynn, but that some of its dealings legitimately might not need to involve those leaders — when leaders meet to plot their strategy for responding to a hurricane, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Top security officials from the Obama administration are blasting the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who served under Obama and George W. Bush, called the demotions a \"big mistake\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/ABCPolitics/status/825717265446342660\">in an interview with ABC News\u003c/a>. \"I think that they both bring a perspective and judgment and experience to bear that every president, whether they like it or not, finds useful,\" Gates said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former national security adviser Susan Rice called the move \"stone cold crazy.\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AmbassadorRice/status/825612583159803904\">In a sarcastic tweet\u003c/a>, she said: \"Who needs military advice or intel to make policy on ISIL, Syria, Afghanistan, DPRK?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House press secretary Sean Spicer responded in an interview with ABC News. \"That's clearly inappropriate language from a former ambassador,\" Spicer said. \"We are instilling reforms to make sure that we streamline the process for the president to make decisions on key, important intelligence matters. You've got a leader in Gen. Flynn who understands the intelligence process and the reforms that are needed probably better than anybody else.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spicer also defended Bannon's qualifications. \"Well, he is a former naval officer. He's got a tremendous understanding of the world and the geopolitical landscape that we have now,\" Spicer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. John McCain, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, told CBS News, \"I am worried about the National Security Council. Who are the members of it and who are the permanent members? The appointment of Mr. Bannon is something which is a radical departure from any National Security Council in history.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCain added that, \"One person who is indispensable would be the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in my view.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

The explicit inclusion of Bannon means that Trump's top adviser on messaging, strategy and other partisan issues means he could also be part of decisions about policy toward adversaries, military actions and other such decisions.\u003cbr>\n\"What does it all mean, in practical terms? It's too soon to say. Former national security council staffers say their day-to-day meetings and process were not governed by whatever formal instruction issued by their respective presidents. Political staffers from the White House have attended meetings in the past. The committees invite who they think they need to invite given the topics under discussion — something that will likely continue under [national security adviser Michael] Flynn.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Attorney John Bellinger, who served on the National Security Council during the George W.

Bellinger said time would tell how the council practically operates under Trump and Flynn, but that some of its dealings legitimately might not need to involve those leaders — when leaders meet to plot their strategy for responding to a hurricane, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Top security officials from the Obama administration are blasting the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who served under Obama and George W. Bush, called the demotions a \"big mistake\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/ABCPolitics/status/825717265446342660\">in an interview with ABC News\u003c/a>. \"I think that they both bring a perspective and judgment and experience to bear that every president, whether they like it or not, finds useful,\" Gates said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former national security adviser Susan Rice called the move \"stone cold crazy.\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AmbassadorRice/status/825612583159803904\">In a sarcastic tweet\u003c/a>, she said: \"Who needs military advice or intel to make policy on ISIL, Syria, Afghanistan, DPRK?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House press secretary Sean Spicer responded in an interview with ABC News. \"That's clearly inappropriate language from a former ambassador,\" Spicer said. \"We are instilling reforms to make sure that we streamline the process for the president to make decisions on key, important intelligence matters. You've got a leader in Gen. Flynn who understands the intelligence process and the reforms that are needed probably better than anybody else.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spicer also defended Bannon's qualifications. \"Well, he is a former naval officer. He's got a tremendous understanding of the world and the geopolitical landscape that we have now,\" Spicer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. John McCain, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, told CBS News, \"I am worried about the National Security Council. Who are the members of it and who are the permanent members?
