President Trump has signed a new version of his travel ban, taking Iraq off the list and allowing in people with valid visas and green cards.

He’s just been confirmed as America’s most senior legal official – but did Trump’s Attorney general Jeff Sessions lie under oath?

Gone was the divisive rhetoric as President Trump hailed the start of a “new chapter in American greatness” in his first address to the US Congress last night. But what did his supporters make of his message?

Donald Trump faces the American political establishment in a few hours, when he makes his first address to Congress. Those congressmen and women have just returned from a break in their constituencies where many have faced the wrath of voters at town hall meetings.

He’s just declared “we don’t win wars any more” – and now the White House says Donald Trump’s forthcoming budget will ratchet up defence spending by a vast $54 billion.

The era of empty talk is over, Donald Trump declared, promising to begin work on his campaign pledges and repeating his attacks on the media – this time, claiming anonymous sources should be banned.

Donald Trump’s government has overturned guidance which allowed transgender pupils to use toilets matching their gender identity. The rules which were issued by his predecessor Barack Obama, had been hailed as a victory for transgender rights.

The White House says it’s working on a new executive order to replace the immigration travel ban, blocked by the courts. While that ban against refugees, as well as citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries, drew headlines worldwide, President Trump’s immigration policies at home have received less attention.

He’s blamed intelligence officials for leaking “illegal information” to the media, and blamed the media for treating his sacked national security adviser “very, very unfairly”.

The President’s National Security Adviser, Mike Flynn, has had to resign over telephone conversations he held with the Russian ambassador before he was appointed to office.

That other self-styled outsider who made it to president, Donald Trump, is finding life in power tougher than he expected. After the courts’ rejection of his migrant travel ban, now he is facing opposition to his National Security Adviser, Mike Flynn, who’s been accused of inappropriate relations with Russia and Turkey.

There are limits to executive power, and President Trump has just run slap bang into them. Last night an American court again refused to uphold his travel ban, leaving Mr Trump venting his fury on Twitter about what he called the “disgraceful decision” and vowing to fight back.

If you, like us, were puzzled by the assertion last night from Donald Trump that the “very, very dishonest media” were under-reporting terrorist attacks around the world, the White House has now listed 78 acts of terrorism, which it claims were under-reported.

Donald Trump began his day with a tweet dismissing as “fake news” polls that suggested public dissatisfaction with his migrant ban. But, despite his ready use of the label for pretty much anything he dislikes, Trump was seen as benefiting from made-up stories during the Presidential election campaign.
