Keith Ellison: ‘We Know the Intent’ of Trump’s Revised Travel Ban ‘Has Not Changed’

‘What’s the national security justification for this thing?’

EXCERPT:

CAMEROTA: "To remind people of what this new version looks like, let me just pull up some of the tenets of it. It will exempt legal permanent residents, meaning green card holders. Visa holders also exempt now. It will avoid any priority of religious minorities, as had been in the first one. There will be a phase-in period, so there won’t be the confusion that we had seen at airports. And that ban on Syrian refugees that had been indefinite has now been reduced to 120 days. You still don’t like it. What’s the problem?" 
ELLISON: "Well, it starts out with bad intentions. I mean, he campaigned on a Muslim ban. He said that explicitly. One of his deputies, Rudy Giuliani came out and said, look, he wants to ban Muslims but he wants to lawyer it up so that it passes muster. We know the intent of the thing has not changed."
