The Hill:
The White House is dismissing a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) intelligence report rebuffing President Trumps claims that citizens from seven predominantly Muslim countries pose an increased terror threat, the Wall Street Journal reported late Friday.
The president asked for an intelligence assessment, a senior administration official told the Journal. This is not the intelligence assessment the president asked for.
Trump administration officials claim that the report failed to include available evidence that supports the presidents Jan. 27 order barring citizens from Syria, Iraq, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Sudan and Somalia from entering the U.S.
