Trump Suggests WH Will Enact New Security Measures While Order On Hold

Source: Talking Points Memo



By CAITLIN MACNEAL Published FEBRUARY 10, 2017, 1:48 PM EDT

President Donald Trump on Friday indicated that his administration will come out with new security measures while his executive order is on hold.

"We are going to keep our country safe. We are going to do whatever is necessary to keep our country safe. We had a decision which we think will be very successful with," Trump said at a White House press conference when asked about his order suspended by federal courts that would suspend the refugee program and bar visitors from seven predominantly Muslim countries. "So we'll be doing something very rapidly, having to do with additional security for our country. You'll be seeing that sometime next week."

"We'll be going forward, we'll be doing things to continue to make our country safe. It will happen rapidly, and we will not allow people into our country who are looking to do harm to our people," Trump added. "We will allow lots of people into our country that will love our people and do good for our country. It's always going to be that way, at least during my administration. I can tell you that."

The President spoke at a press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The two leaders are scheduled to travel to Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort for the weekend. The President's comments followed a report by NBC News, citing an unnamed senior official, that the White House is working on a new version of the order.

Pheniox was the trial run for ICE. Twenty Four hours later,they amp it up. You could see this coming days ago. Once Trump's anti-Muslim piece of crap went to the Circuit Court,you just knew this was the Trump idiots next move.
