11m 37s

Late Friday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to freeze refugee visas from several primarily Muslim countries. The new president is also expected to name his choice to fill the seat on the Supreme Court left vacant by the death of Antonin Scalia nearly one year ago. His list is reportedly down to three finalists, all white men.
