President Trump's travel ban

President Trump signed an executive order Friday night to keep refugees from entering the country for 120 days and immigrants from seven predominantly Muslim nations out for three months. The countries affected are Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Yemen and Somalia. This is the "extreme vetting" Trump promised during the campaign. White House officials noted why by saying the seven countries targeted in the executive order had already been deemed "countries of concern" for terrorism by the Obama administration. In December 2015 Obama signed into law a measure placing some restrictions on certain travelers from many of these countries. Trump's order is more broad than Obama's, though, banning all citizens from those seven nations from entering the country for three months. The President said while there's "compassion to those fleeing oppression," his first priority was to keep the nation safe. Hundreds showed up at airports across the country to protest. Foreign leaders criticized the ban. UK Prime Minster Theresa May said "we do not agree with this kind of approach." German Chancellor Angela Merkel called Trump and reminded the President of the United States' obligations to refugees under the Geneva Conventions. Even some members of the President's own party disagreed. Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham said the ban would only help ISIS and other militant groups recruit more terrorists. There is sure to be further interpretation by the courts to determine whether Trump's order is unconstitutional and discriminatory.

In Other News The Indian government plans to provide free WiFi to 1,050 villages across the vast country under a new pilot project known as Digital Village. Over the next six months, each village will get its own WiFi hotspot mounted on a special tower to which villagers can connect using their cell phones. Global tech firms and Indian internet providers are racing to grab a piece of the country's unconnected population of more than 900 million people. Terror suspects identified as Mohamed Khadir and Alexandre Bissonnette were arrested soon after the shooting at the Quebec Islamic Cultural Centre Sunday night. One of the gunman actually turned himself in, calling 911 less than 20 minutes later and giving officers his location so they could arrest him. The attack killed six people. Another five people were in critical condition and 12 others suffered minor injuries.
