His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically.

The challengers in that case, led by the nonprofit International Refugee Assistance Project, argued that the travel ban is a thinly veiled attempt to block Muslims from entering the country, something Trump and his advisers talked about during and after the presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawyers for the Department of Justice countered that courts should look only at the language of the executive order itself, which does not mention religion explicitly. But that argument did not prevail. Writing for the 10-3 majority, Chief Judge Roger Gregory said the executive order \"speaks with vague words of national security but in context drips with religious intolerance.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/12/532620714/another-federal-appeals-court-says-trumps-travel-ban-should-remain-on-hold\">9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals\u003c/a> focused on federal law. The court found that the president likely exceeded his statutory authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The order does not offer a sufficient justification to suspend the entry of more than 180 million people on the basis of nationality,\" the 9th Circuit judges wrote. \"National security is not a 'talismanic incantation' that, once invoked, can support any and all exercise of executive power.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration moved quickly to appeal both rulings to the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Executive Branch is entrusted with the responsibility to keep the country safe under Article II of the Constitution,\" U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a statement after the 9th Circuit ruling.

But in order to decide if the lower court injunctions were appropriate, they had to weigh the probable impact of the order and the likelihood that the legal challenges would succeed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/05/25/530051807/4th-circuit-court-ruling-keeps-trumps-travel-ban-on-hold\">The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals\u003c/a> looked extensively at whether the travel ban violated the Constitution by discriminating on the basis of religion. The challengers in that case, led by the nonprofit International Refugee Assistance Project, argued that the travel ban is a thinly veiled attempt to block Muslims from entering the country, something Trump and his advisers talked about during and after the presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawyers for the Department of Justice countered that courts should look only at the language of the executive order itself, which does not mention religion explicitly. But that argument did not prevail. Writing for the 10-3 majority, Chief Judge Roger Gregory said the executive order \"speaks with vague words of national security but in context drips with religious intolerance.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/12/532620714/another-federal-appeals-court-says-trumps-travel-ban-should-remain-on-hold\">9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals\u003c/a> focused on federal law. The court found that the president likely exceeded his statutory authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The order does not offer a sufficient justification to suspend the entry of more than 180 million people on the basis of nationality,\" the 9th Circuit judges wrote. \"National security is not a 'talismanic incantation' that, once invoked, can support any and all exercise of executive power.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration moved quickly to appeal both rulings to the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It just causes, like, little explosions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He couldn’t have picked a worse day for this prank.

With the whole country on edge, the response to the incident at his high school near Lancaster escalated fast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's like SWAT team, hazmat, so many fire trucks, cops roll in, evacuate the school,” he says. “It was just bad.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"WkUBKTaE4l23LXlzWZg2v6hFYqYMLhkj\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vondersaar and his friends were afraid to come clean, so they kept quiet.

It's the most explicit statement yet that the Trump administration will not seek to deport the so-called \"Dreamers\" who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly officially revoked another program that might have protected some of their parents from deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then-candidate Trump promised to get rid of both programs during last year's campaign, saying \"we will immediately terminate President Obama's two illegal executive amnesties\" during a major immigration speech in August 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his position on so-called \"Dreamers\" has been shifting since the election. Here's where it stands now and what that could mean for \"Dreamers\" and their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>1. What did the Trump administration just do?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/news/2017/06/15/frequently-asked-questions-rescission-memorandum-providing-deferred-action-parents\">FAQ posted on its web site\u003c/a> Thursday night, the Department of Homeland Security says current DACA recipients \"will continue to be eligible for renewal,\" and that DHS will continue to abide by \"the terms of the original DACA program\" as outlined by the Obama administration on June 15, 2012.[contextly_sidebar id=\"l8kUN3qt1OQ3qCMVVRcWGHdupdWSTpoV\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/s1-exercising-prosecutorial-discretion-individuals-who-came-to-us-as-children.pdf\">The Obama-era memo\u003c/a>, issued five years ago this week, lays out who is eligible for DACA. It's also what protects people who signed up for the program from deportation, and allows them to apply for work permits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Does this go beyond what President Trump had said before?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after his inauguration, President Trump told ABC that DACA recipients \"shouldn't be very worried.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I do have a big heart. We're going to take care of everybody,\" he told ABC. \"But I will tell you, we're looking at this, the whole immigration situation, we're looking at it with great heart.\" Trump suggested that a new DACA policy would be forthcoming, but did not clarify what it was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. Is this a victory for immigrant rights activists?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not exactly. It's clearly a relief for some of the roughly 800,000 people who've signed up for DACA. As the fifth anniversary of the program approached, there were fears that the Trump administration might abolish it altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is an important win for those 800,000 individuals,\" says Muzna Ansari, immigration policy manager at the New York Immigration Coalition. \"But in the grand scheme of things, there are 11 million undocumented immigrants living in this country, who have really been living in fear\" under the Trump administration.[contextly_sidebar id=\"RpBL3zqXw2CpR2vtSnpGI1RJHn1hj9kk\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. How do President Trump's supporters feel about it?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some are deeply disappointed. Others are willing to give the president the benefit of the doubt because his administration has been aggressively cracking down on illegal immigration across the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He broke the DACA promise,\" says Dan Stein, president of Federation for American Immigration Reform, which advocates for lower immigration levels. \"Are we happy about it? No,\" Stein said. \"We think they should have allowed the work authorizations to expire. End of story, full stop.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Stein is taking the long view. He says the White House may want to use the DACA program as a bargaining chip in negotiations with Congressional Democrats on a broader immigration reform package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. What is DAPA, and how does it fit in?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DAPA is shorthand for Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents. It's another Obama-era program that would have extended protection from deportation even further. It was designed for the parents of U.S. citizens and legal residents who were themselves living in the U.S. illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was quickly blocked by the courts, and never implemented.[contextly_sidebar id=\"JxtyEpnP7laTO50PrQCMYtEKcxdF49JG\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DHS officially revoked DAPA on Thursday. But that was not a big surprise, since no one expected the Trump administration to defend the program in court, as the Obama administration had.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6.

What did the Trump administration just do?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/news/2017/06/15/frequently-asked-questions-rescission-memorandum-providing-deferred-action-parents\">FAQ posted on its web site\u003c/a> Thursday night, the Department of Homeland Security says current DACA recipients \"will continue to be eligible for renewal,\" and that DHS will continue to abide by \"the terms of the original DACA program\" as outlined by the Obama administration on June 15, 2012.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/s1-exercising-prosecutorial-discretion-individuals-who-came-to-us-as-children.pdf\">The Obama-era memo\u003c/a>, issued five years ago this week, lays out who is eligible for DACA. It's also what protects people who signed up for the program from deportation, and allows them to apply for work permits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Does this go beyond what President Trump had said before?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after his inauguration, President Trump told ABC that DACA recipients \"shouldn't be very worried.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I do have a big heart. We're going to take care of everybody,\" he told ABC. \"But I will tell you, we're looking at this, the whole immigration situation, we're looking at it with great heart.\" Trump suggested that a new DACA policy would be forthcoming, but did not clarify what it was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. Is this a victory for immigrant rights activists?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not exactly. It's clearly a relief for some of the roughly 800,000 people who've signed up for DACA. As the fifth anniversary of the program approached, there were fears that the Trump administration might abolish it altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is an important win for those 800,000 individuals,\" says Muzna Ansari, immigration policy manager at the New York Immigration Coalition. \"But in the grand scheme of things, there are 11 million undocumented immigrants living in this country, who have really been living in fear\" under the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. How do President Trump's supporters feel about it?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some are deeply disappointed. Others are willing to give the president the benefit of the doubt because his administration has been aggressively cracking down on illegal immigration across the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He broke the DACA promise,\" says Dan Stein, president of Federation for American Immigration Reform, which advocates for lower immigration levels. \"Are we happy about it? No,\" Stein said. \"We think they should have allowed the work authorizations to expire. End of story, full stop.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Stein is taking the long view. He says the White House may want to use the DACA program as a bargaining chip in negotiations with Congressional Democrats on a broader immigration reform package.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. What is DAPA, and how does it fit in?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DAPA is shorthand for Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents. It's another Obama-era program that would have extended protection from deportation even further. It was designed for the parents of U.S. citizens and legal residents who were themselves living in the U.S. illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it was quickly blocked by the courts, and never implemented.\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DHS officially revoked DAPA on Thursday. But that was not a big surprise, since no one expected the Trump administration to defend the program in court, as the Obama administration had.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6. Is this a final decision on the future DACA?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a word, no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House and the Department of Homeland Security have been emphasizing that this is not a permanent decision, and that president could still change his mind and revoke that program, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for now, the administration continues to accept new DACA applications.

An hour later, Trump was back at it, calling the investigation the “single greatest WITCH HUNT in American political history.” (People who followed McCarthyism closely might disagree.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/875321478849363968\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president also appeared to undermine Mueller’s leadership, saying the “witch hunt” was being “led by some very bad and conflicted people!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There has been an effort on the right to try to undermine Mueller to de-legitimize his potential findings …\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/newtgingrich/status/875314161345077248\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/newtgingrich/status/875314527583260672\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>… even though some of the same people just a month earlier had been praising the former FBI director for his esteem:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/newtgingrich/status/864998445244743684\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>News of Mueller looking into potential obstruction comes after former FBI Director James Comey testified last week. He said he didn’t know if Trump obstructed justice, but said it was for Mueller to decide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey testified that he told the president he was not personally under investigation three times and confirmed that Trump was not under investigation at the time of his firing on May 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, “Officials say that changed shortly after Comey’s firing,” the \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It stands to reason that the circumstances surrounding Comey’s firing would now be at the center of Mueller’s query. That’s particularly the case since other high-ranking administration officials have declined under oath in open testimony to provide more details about whether Trump asked them in any way to influence Comey or the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, National Security Agency Director Adm. Mike Rogers and Rogers’ former deputy, Richard Ledgett, agreed to be interviewed as part of Mueller’s investigation, according to five people “briefed on the requests” who were “not authorized to discuss the matter publicly,” the paper reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officially, Mueller spokesman Peter Carr told NPR’s Carrie Johnson, “We’ll decline to comment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NSA spokeswoman Vanee Vines told NPR’s Phil Ewing, “NSA will fully cooperate with the special counsel. We are not in a position to comment further.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for Trump’s personal lawyer in the Russia matter, Marc Kasowitz, said, “The FBI leak of information regarding the president is outrageous, inexcusable and illegal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”dZ5hkz8sRYhFsYhCEFfq4GQ2Wu3es6K6″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey’s firing is a “central moment that’s being looked at” in the investigation, \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> reporter Devlin Barrett told NPR’s Ari Shapiro on \u003cem>All Things Considered\u003c/em>, “but it’s not the only thing.” Investigators are also considering the conversations Comey and the president had leading up to that point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his testimony on June 8, Comey told the Senate Intelligence Committee that he believed Trump had fired him over his role as lead of the FBI investigation into Russian interference in the U.S. election and Trump campaign associates’ possible ties to Russia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House has been inconsistent with its public messaging about the dismissal — initially saying Trump took the recommendations of Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein about Comey’s management of the FBI and his handling of the Clinton email investigation. But then the president himself said he had made up his mind prior to receiving the recommendations from the two top lawyers at the Department of Justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey testified that initial explanations that he was fired because of poor leadership were “lies, plain and simple.” He also said Trump had privately urged him to pull back on the investigation into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn — \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/05/18/528989289/president-trump-holds-press-conference-with-colombias-president-before-overseas\">a claim that the president has denied\u003c/a>. Comey said he declined to tell agents working on the case about his conversation with Trump to shield them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/05/22/529586885/report-trump-asked-intel-heads-to-push-back-on-fbi-russia-probe\">The Washington Post previously reported\u003c/a> that Trump also asked Rogers and Coats to push back against the FBI’s investigation. The intelligence chiefs \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/07/531851337/intelligence-chiefs-wont-discuss-private-conversations-with-trump-in-open-hearin\">declined to discuss\u003c/a> their private conversations with Trump during a Senate panel hearing on June 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked whether Trump’s actions rose to the level of obstruction of justice, Comey testified last week: “I don’t know. That’s Bob Mueller’s job to sort that out.” But Comey \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/10/532321287/is-trump-guilty-of-obstruction-of-justice-comey-laid-out-the-case\">did lay out facts that a prosecutor could use \u003c/a>to try to prove obstruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and his supporters cast Comey’s testimony that he had told the president he was not personally under investigation as vindication. Trump disputed, though, Comey’s assertion he had asked for a pledge of loyalty. After Comey’s much-watched Senate testimony, the president said in a press conference that he would testify \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/09/532273772/trump-says-he-is-100-percent-willing-to-testify-about-interactions-with-comey\">under oath\u003c/a> regarding his interactions and conversations with the former FBI director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think, frankly, our story shows that the president is by no means out of the woods as far as the investigation goes,” the \u003cem>Post’s\u003c/em> Barrett told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chatter surfaced earlier this week that the president was \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/13/532763717/trump-considering-firing-special-counsel-just-another-example-of-stirring-the-po\">considering firing Mueller\u003c/a>. After a day of speculation, White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, “While the president has the right to, he has no intention to do so.” \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/13/us/politics/robert-mueller-special-counsel-trump.html\">The New York Times reported\u003c/a> that Trump had been waved off the idea by advisers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/05/17/528846598/former-fbi-director-mueller-appointed-special-counsel-to-oversee-russia-probe\">who appointed Mueller\u003c/a> on May 17, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/13/532756387/rosenstein-says-he-wouldnt-fire-special-counsel-without-good-cause\">testified on Tuesday\u003c/a> that he would not fire the special counsel without “good cause.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump is not the only one under scrutiny, Barrett said: Investigators are also looking into the finances of Trump associates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oftentimes what happens, frankly, in counterintelligence investigations is you start looking at sort of a core intelligence question — What did the Russians do and did they do it with any Americans? — and it grows into: What did any of those Americans do in their financial matters that may also raise alarms with the FBI?” Barrett said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mueller’s investigative team has expanded in recent weeks. \u003cem>The National Law Journal\u003c/em> reported on June 9 that Mueller has brought Deputy Solicitor General Michael Dreeben onto the team on a part-time basis. \u003ca href=\"http://www.nationallawjournal.com/id=1202789177543/Mueller-Enlists-Top-Criminal-Law-Expert-for-Russia-Probe?et=editorial&bu=National%20Law%20Journal&cn=20170609&src=EMC-Email&pt=Daily%20Headlines&slreturn=20170509104942\">Reporter Tony Mauro noted\u003c/a> the addition of Dreeben may signal that “Mueller may be seeking advice on complex areas of criminal law, including what constitutes obstruction of justice.” At the end of May, the chief of the Justice Department’s Fraud Section, Andrew Weissman, also joined the team, NPR’s Carrie Johnson reported at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justice Department policy is that a sitting president cannot be indicted by a grand jury, \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/special-counsel-is-investigating-trump-for-possible-obstruction-of-justice/2017/06/14/9ce02506-5131-11e7-b064-828ba60fbb98_story.html?utm_term=.6069366b7243\">the Post also reported Wednesday\u003c/a>.

He said he didn’t know if Trump obstructed justice, but said it was for Mueller to decide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey testified that he told the president he was not personally under investigation three times and confirmed that Trump was not under investigation at the time of his firing on May 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, “Officials say that changed shortly after Comey’s firing,” the \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It stands to reason that the circumstances surrounding Comey’s firing would now be at the center of Mueller’s query. That’s particularly the case since other high-ranking administration officials have declined under oath in open testimony to provide more details about whether Trump asked them in any way to influence Comey or the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, National Security Agency Director Adm. Mike Rogers and Rogers’ former deputy, Richard Ledgett, agreed to be interviewed as part of Mueller’s investigation, according to five people “briefed on the requests” who were “not authorized to discuss the matter publicly,” the paper reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officially, Mueller spokesman Peter Carr told NPR’s Carrie Johnson, “We’ll decline to comment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NSA spokeswoman Vanee Vines told NPR’s Phil Ewing, “NSA will fully cooperate with the special counsel. We are not in a position to comment further.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for Trump’s personal lawyer in the Russia matter, Marc Kasowitz, said, “The FBI leak of information regarding the president is outrageous, inexcusable and illegal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey’s firing is a “central moment that’s being looked at” in the investigation, \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> reporter Devlin Barrett told NPR’s Ari Shapiro on \u003cem>All Things Considered\u003c/em>, “but it’s not the only thing.” Investigators are also considering the conversations Comey and the president had leading up to that point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his testimony on June 8, Comey told the Senate Intelligence Committee that he believed Trump had fired him over his role as lead of the FBI investigation into Russian interference in the U.S. election and Trump campaign associates’ possible ties to Russia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House has been inconsistent with its public messaging about the dismissal — initially saying Trump took the recommendations of Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein about Comey’s management of the FBI and his handling of the Clinton email investigation. But then the president himself said he had made up his mind prior to receiving the recommendations from the two top lawyers at the Department of Justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey testified that initial explanations that he was fired because of poor leadership were “lies, plain and simple.” He also said Trump had privately urged him to pull back on the investigation into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn — \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/05/18/528989289/president-trump-holds-press-conference-with-colombias-president-before-overseas\">a claim that the president has denied\u003c/a>. Comey said he declined to tell agents working on the case about his conversation with Trump to shield them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/05/22/529586885/report-trump-asked-intel-heads-to-push-back-on-fbi-russia-probe\">The Washington Post previously reported\u003c/a> that Trump also asked Rogers and Coats to push back against the FBI’s investigation. The intelligence chiefs \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/07/531851337/intelligence-chiefs-wont-discuss-private-conversations-with-trump-in-open-hearin\">declined to discuss\u003c/a> their private conversations with Trump during a Senate panel hearing on June 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked whether Trump’s actions rose to the level of obstruction of justice, Comey testified last week: “I don’t know. That’s Bob Mueller’s job to sort that out.” But Comey \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/10/532321287/is-trump-guilty-of-obstruction-of-justice-comey-laid-out-the-case\">did lay out facts that a prosecutor could use \u003c/a>to try to prove obstruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and his supporters cast Comey’s testimony that he had told the president he was not personally under investigation as vindication. Trump disputed, though, Comey’s assertion he had asked for a pledge of loyalty. After Comey’s much-watched Senate testimony, the president said in a press conference that he would testify \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/09/532273772/trump-says-he-is-100-percent-willing-to-testify-about-interactions-with-comey\">under oath\u003c/a> regarding his interactions and conversations with the former FBI director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think, frankly, our story shows that the president is by no means out of the woods as far as the investigation goes,” the \u003cem>Post’s\u003c/em> Barrett told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chatter surfaced earlier this week that the president was \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/13/532763717/trump-considering-firing-special-counsel-just-another-example-of-stirring-the-po\">considering firing Mueller\u003c/a>. After a day of speculation, White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, “While the president has the right to, he has no intention to do so.” \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/13/us/politics/robert-mueller-special-counsel-trump.html\">The New York Times reported\u003c/a> that Trump had been waved off the idea by advisers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/05/17/528846598/former-fbi-director-mueller-appointed-special-counsel-to-oversee-russia-probe\">who appointed Mueller\u003c/a> on May 17, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/06/13/532756387/rosenstein-says-he-wouldnt-fire-special-counsel-without-good-cause\">testified on Tuesday\u003c/a> that he would not fire the special counsel without “good cause.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump is not the only one under scrutiny, Barrett said: Investigators are also looking into the finances of Trump associates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oftentimes what happens, frankly, in counterintelligence investigations is you start looking at sort of a core intelligence question — What did the Russians do and did they do it with any Americans? — and it grows into: What did any of those Americans do in their financial matters that may also raise alarms with the FBI?” Barrett said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mueller’s investigative team has expanded in recent weeks. \u003cem>The National Law Journal\u003c/em> reported on June 9 that Mueller has brought Deputy Solicitor General Michael Dreeben onto the team on a part-time basis. \u003ca href=\"http://www.nationallawjournal.com/id=1202789177543/Mueller-Enlists-Top-Criminal-Law-Expert-for-Russia-Probe?et=editorial&bu=National%20Law%20Journal&cn=20170609&src=EMC-Email&pt=Daily%20Headlines&slreturn=20170509104942\">Reporter Tony Mauro noted\u003c/a> the addition of Dreeben may signal that “Mueller may be seeking advice on complex areas of criminal law, including what constitutes obstruction of justice.” At the end of May, the chief of the Justice Department’s Fraud Section, Andrew Weissman, also joined the team, NPR’s Carrie Johnson reported at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In his opening statement, Sessions said:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Let me state this clearly, colleagues: I have never met with or had any conversation with any Russians or foreign officials concerning any type of interference with any campaign or election in the United States. Further, I have no knowledge of any such conversations by anyone connected to the Trump campaign.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The attorney general on March 2 recused himself from the FBI investigation into Russia's role in the election, saying he felt he was required to do so because he had been a prominent figure in Trump's campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Many have suggested that my recusal is because I felt I was a subject of the investigation myself, that I may have done something wrong,\" he said, stressing this was not the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The suggestion that I participated in any collusion, that I was aware of any collusion with the Russian government, or hurt this country which I have served with honor for 35 years, or to undermine the integrity of our democratic process, is an appalling and detestable lie,\" Sessions said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"WtC6eYpi6iOsN0ACuPPE69Jhqtiu8BXv\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His testimony came just six days after James Comey, the fired FBI director, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/08/watch-live-comey-testifies-before-senate-intelligence-committee/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">appeared before the same committee\u003c/a>. The former FBI director discussed a host of issues surrounding Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election, though his remarks also raised questions that were directed at Sessions on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey referred frequently to the attorney general, and included the tantalizing tidbit that there were \"facts that I can't discuss in an open setting.\" Sessions requested an open hearing, though he made clear in his opening remarks, and at several times during his testimony, that there were some things he would not discuss, including confidential conversations with the president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic senators expressed frustration with Sessions on several occasions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one tense exchange, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said, \"I believe the American people have had it with stonewalling. Americans don't want to hear that answers to relevant questions are privileged or off-limits.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am not stonewalling,\" Sessions said. \"I am following the historic policies of the Department of Justice\" on private discussions with the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner, the Virginia Democrat and vice chairman of the committee, raised his concerns in his opening statement:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Our committee will want to hear what you are doing to ensure that the Russians — or any other foreign adversaries — cannot attack our democratic process like this ever again. I am concerned that the president still does not recognize the severity of the threat. He does not acknowledge the unanimous conclusions of the U.S. intelligence community that Russia massively intervened in our election.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Before he became attorney general, Sessions served two decades as a Republican senator from Alabama. But his former Democratic colleagues pressed him repeatedly on his contacts with Russia and his role in the dismissal of Comey — who led the FBI's probe on Russia until he was ousted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The attorney general has acknowledged two meetings last year with Russia's ambassador to the U.S., Sergei Kislyak. But he denied reports that he had a third, previously undisclosed meeting with Kislyak at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington in April 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"eeWz2Qciif0urNgm82phDR9lkCAZDJPu\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I did not have any private meetings, nor do I recall any conversations with any Russian officials at the Mayflower Hotel,\" said Sessions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was asked about the event several times, and said at one point, \"If any brief interaction occurred in passing with the Russian ambassador during that reception, I do not remember it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his testimony last week, Comey said he and Trump had a one-on-one meeting in the Oval Office on Feb. 14 about the investigation into the former national security adviser, Michael Flynn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Comey, Trump said of Flynn: \"He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After that meeting, Comey said he told Sessions he did not want to be left alone with Trump, because he didn't think it was appropriate for the president and the FBI director to have such private meetings. The FBI is part of the Justice Department that Sessions heads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sessions confirmed Comey's account, but placed less emphasis on the Trump-Comey meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believe it was the next day that [Comey] said something, expressed concern, about being left alone with the president,\" Sessions said. \"But that in itself is not problematic. He did not, at that time, tell me any details about anything that was said that was improper. I affirmed his concern that we should be following the proper guidelines of the Department of Justice, and basically backed him up in his concerns.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., asked Sessions why, after recusing himself from the Russia inquiry, he signed a letter last month recommending that President Trump fire Comey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sessions said he agreed with a letter drafted by his deputy, Rod Rosenstein, that Comey should be replaced. Sessions added his own letter to that effect, and both documents were sent to Trump, who then fired Comey later on the same day, May 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Sessions refused to say whether he ever spoke with Trump about firing Comey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[SessionsAnnote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

The former FBI director discussed a host of issues surrounding Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election, though his remarks also raised questions that were directed at Sessions on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey referred frequently to the attorney general, and included the tantalizing tidbit that there were \"facts that I can't discuss in an open setting.\" Sessions requested an open hearing, though he made clear in his opening remarks, and at several times during his testimony, that there were some things he would not discuss, including confidential conversations with the president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic senators expressed frustration with Sessions on several occasions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one tense exchange, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said, \"I believe the American people have had it with stonewalling. Americans don't want to hear that answers to relevant questions are privileged or off-limits.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I am not stonewalling,\" Sessions said. \"I am following the historic policies of the Department of Justice\" on private discussions with the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner, the Virginia Democrat and vice chairman of the committee, raised his concerns in his opening statement:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Our committee will want to hear what you are doing to ensure that the Russians — or any other foreign adversaries — cannot attack our democratic process like this ever again. I am concerned that the president still does not recognize the severity of the threat. He does not acknowledge the unanimous conclusions of the U.S. intelligence community that Russia massively intervened in our election.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Before he became attorney general, Sessions served two decades as a Republican senator from Alabama. But his former Democratic colleagues pressed him repeatedly on his contacts with Russia and his role in the dismissal of Comey — who led the FBI's probe on Russia until he was ousted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The attorney general has acknowledged two meetings last year with Russia's ambassador to the U.S., Sergei Kislyak. But he denied reports that he had a third, previously undisclosed meeting with Kislyak at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington in April 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I did not have any private meetings, nor do I recall any conversations with any Russian officials at the Mayflower Hotel,\" said Sessions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was asked about the event several times, and said at one point, \"If any brief interaction occurred in passing with the Russian ambassador during that reception, I do not remember it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his testimony last week, Comey said he and Trump had a one-on-one meeting in the Oval Office on Feb. 14 about the investigation into the former national security adviser, Michael Flynn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Comey, Trump said of Flynn: \"He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After that meeting, Comey said he told Sessions he did not want to be left alone with Trump, because he didn't think it was appropriate for the president and the FBI director to have such private meetings. The FBI is part of the Justice Department that Sessions heads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sessions confirmed Comey's account, but placed less emphasis on the Trump-Comey meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believe it was the next day that [Comey] said something, expressed concern, about being left alone with the president,\" Sessions said. \"But that in itself is not problematic. He did not, at that time, tell me any details about anything that was said that was improper. I affirmed his concern that we should be following the proper guidelines of the Department of Justice, and basically backed him up in his concerns.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., asked Sessions why, after recusing himself from the Russia inquiry, he signed a letter last month recommending that President Trump fire Comey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sessions said he agreed with a letter drafted by his deputy, Rod Rosenstein, that Comey should be replaced. Sessions added his own letter to that effect, and both documents were sent to Trump, who then fired Comey later on the same day, May 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Sessions refused to say whether he ever spoke with Trump about firing Comey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[SessionsAnnote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

"content": "\u003cp>A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals knocked down President Trump's attempt to reinstate his travel ban, ruling Monday that a lower court's decision to put that ban on hold was justified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court noted that the law gives the president \"broad powers\" over immigration policy, but said the Trump administration's \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/03/06/executive-order-protecting-nation-foreign-terrorist-entry-united-states\">March executive order \u003c/a>still went too far when it barred citizens from six nations from entering the U.S. and suspended the nation's refugee program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Immigration, even for the president, is not a one-person show,\" Senior Circuit Judge Michael Daly Hawkins and Circuit Judges Ronald M. Gould and Richard A. Paez wrote in\u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=3863025-17-15589-Per-Curiam-Opinion-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> an 86-page ruling\u003c/a> in a case brought by the state of Hawaii.
