The 2^nd travel ban from the U.S President Donald Trump restricts entry into the United States by individuals from 6 countries. New travel ban is built on assessments from intelligence agencies the president has attacked and sometimes ignored since taking office. The 2^nd entry ban from Trump administration includes Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Nigeria and Myanmar to its first travel ban. It also restricts individuals hailing from Tanzania and Sudan from getting green cards via the visa lottery program that Trump has panned. First travel ban from Trump administration was forced to revamp several times and was upheld by the U.S Supreme Court. It will be an official U.S policy, very soon.U.S President

The new travel ban represents the latest contradiction of the Trump presidency due to it was based on a rationale that overwhelmingly depends on the U.S intelligence community. A White House proclamation that accompanied the second ban builds a legal case and operational description of why the administration determined it is needed and how it will be implemented. The document says it is based on improvements to DHS (Department of Homeland Security) threat assessment metrics also used to craft the first ban. But, it was crafted with more customized data from the United States Intelligence Community. The White House said, “With the benefit of two years of experience, DHS has worked closely with the Intelligence Community to define intelligence requirements and customize intelligence reporting”.

The statement further indicates, “That offers a detailed characterization of the relative risk of terrorist travel to the United States from each country in the world. This additional detail improves DHS’s assessment of national security and public-safety risk”. The president informed supporters during a January 9 campaign rally about the U.S military operation that killed Iranian Top General Qassem Soleimani. Trump’s 2^nd travel ban depends heavily on intelligence agencies Trump also sought to discredit during House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry. The 2^nd ban makes it more difficult for thousands of additional people from non-white majority countries to enter the United States.
