Time: The White House responded Monday to a State Department "dissent channel" cable critical of President's Trump's new immigration and refugee executive order by encouraging the officials to "get with the program" or find the exit.
“A policy which closes our doors to over 200 million legitimate travelers in the hopes of preventing a small number of travelers who intend to harm Americans from using the visa system to enter the United States will not achieve its aim of making our country safer,” the memo, first obtained by the Lawfare blog, states. “Moreover, such a policy runs counter to core American values of nondiscrimination, fair play, and extending a warm welcome to foreign visitors and immigrants.”
