why was conway so off? sources say conway and other top officials aren't communicating. instead they're all trying to take each other out "game of thrones" style. but this morning conway pushed back insisting she wasn't out of the loop and that her statement jived with sean spicer's. >> both were true. the president is very loyal. he's a very loyal person. and by night's end michael flynn had decided it was best to resign. he knew he'd become a lightning rod and he made that decision. >> reporter: later this afternoon tweeting i serve at the pleasure of @potus. his message is my message. his goals are my goals. uninformed chatter doesn't matter. kellyanne's fumbles front and center over the past few weeks. >> president obama had a six-month ban on the iraqi refugee program after two iraqis came here to this country, were ral calized and were the mastermind behind the bowling green massacre. it didn't get covered. >> reporter: conjuring up a made-up masker before saying she misspoke and drawing ridicule for her twisting of the truth. >> sean spicer our press secretary, ga

could kellyanne conway face legal trouble? welcome to "early start." i'm miguel marquez. >> so much news. i'm christine romans. let's begin with this. president trump vowing to fight on in the battle over the travel ban. unanimous ruling by a three-judge panel means citizens of the muslim majority countries can travel freely to the united states. the judges determining the government relied too heavily on executive power for the ban. the president saying see you in court. security of our nation is at stake. moments later, he spoke to reporters at the white house. >> it is a political decision. we will see them in court. >> you believe the -- >> we have a situation where the security of our country is at stake. it is a serious situation. we look forward as i said to seeing them in court. >> does this under cut the early days of your presidency? >> this is a decision that came down. >> democrats and refugee groups applauding the court ruling. next, seek reexamination of the case by the larger panel of the judges or appeal directly to the supreme court. >

miss conway told a breakfast television programme to "go buy ivanka's stuff." her comments have been labelled over the line and unacceptable. know some of the main stories from bbc world service... —— now to some of the main stories from bbc world service... the international committee of the red cross is temporarily suspending its aid programme in afghanistan after an an attack on one of its convoys killed six staff dead. two are still missing. bbc pashto, that one. bbc mundo reports that julian assange will be given a month's notice to leave the ecuadorian embassy if the country's main opposition wins the presidency in next week's election. guillermo lasso is the candidate — he was talking to the guardian. this man in australia spent hours keep his head just above water after his digger toppled into a waterhole and then pinned him where he was. he was ok. i cannot believe you haven't already seen this. he was rescued and there we re seen this. he was rescued and there were no injuries. the good news. one of the reasons we've got a social media feed that

plus kellyanne conway says she apologized to mr. trump about promoting ivanka trump's clothing line. >>> who will be the next woman to be one of the men from team trump? . too bad. we are double booked: diarrhea and abdominal pain. why don't you start without me? oh. yeah. if you're living with frequent, unpredictable diarrhea and abdominal pain, you may have irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea, or ibs-d. a condition that can be really frustrating. talk to your doctor about viberzi, a different way to treat ibs-d. viberzi is a prescription medication you take every day that helps proactively manage both diarrhea and abdominal pain at the same time. so you stay ahead of your symptoms. viberzi can cause new or worsening abdominal pain. do not take viberzi if you have or may have had: pancreas or severe liver problems, problems with alcohol abuse, long-lasting or severe constipation, or a blockage of your bowel or gallbladder. if you are taking viberzi, you should not take medicines that cause constipation. the most common side effe

conway's correction to the mistake still was wrong. it didn't address that it wasn't actually a ban under president obama and now she's still responding. what's the latest tweet? >> absolutely kellyanne conway has taken to twitter to continue to pushback on this, she started out saying it was an honest mistake and fired back at chelschel chelscy clinton, either i miss spoke, you lost the election. so clearly hitting the clintons on losing the election, who will cover, who will care is the reference of what started this in bowling green was two iraqi refugees, who attacked and planned an attack that never happened. that's essentially what sparked this misstatement with kellyanne conway calling a mistake in an interview, but all comes within the very important context in the way the white house has sought to delegitimize reporters. she referred in particular with the mlk bust, that was quickly corrected by the reporter who was responsible for that. and yet, the white house from the briefing room here continued to push back on that and co

this just carries through and kellyanne conway did it, but she is subject to the laws. if they don't get what's going on or why this is important then they're going to continue to do it and for us to just trust them that she's being counselled doesn't give a lot of faith. >> is there anything we could draw upon or any ramification on this? >> i think there's a 0% chance that kellyanne conway didn't know there could be ramify indicatio - -- -- ramifications of this. but she's willing to take the reprimand and i'm sure made her boss very, very happy. he loves his daughter and very protective of her, i think she will perhaps get a slap on the wrist, and possibly harder after that. but. >> misstating sean spicer, saying atlanta, i think three times when he meant orlando, it's not been a good week. >> no, i think folks have watched how the president has quickly moved on these orders and now the spokesman and the president really getting tripped up on their words i think a lot of republicans are watching this and distancing themselves we have seen this today on jason chaffetz

maybe at 4:00 he told kellyanne conway, i have full confidence in flynn. then maybe he spoke to vice president pence, i am just making this up, who knows, maybe he had another conversation with somebody which made him take it back. i mean, that's a perfectly plausible explanation. and it also gives you a window into why this white house is having such a difficult time. i think it goes right to the top. >> there is almost like a thunderous silence from the president himself. he didn't take questions about it at friday's news conference or today's news conference when he was asked aboard air force one about flynn. i don't know anything about it. i'll look into it. blah, blah, blah. i don't hear him saying i have full confidence. certainly hasn't tweeted his support for general flynn. >> he is now acting as a politician here, allowing his aides to step in front and take the arrows. to gloria's point, it shows you the dysfunctionality within the white house, certainly within the west wing, of trying to please the president, always trying to get out in front of

conway acknowledged making a mistake. no comment from ivanka trump. >> a lot of people are saying this is all about her line. she was stepping away from. we'll see. nordstrom showing a tweet doesn't sink a stock. nordstrom says it was a business decision to drop the ivanka trump brand. traditional retailers are struggling. if the line were selling, you cannot afford to get rid of it. the stocks hit record highs after stalling for the past few sessions. a jump start after the session opened. >> we're going to announce something over the next two or three weeks that will be phenomenal in terms of tax. >> phenomenal in two or three weeks. after he said, that the dow jumped 100 points and held on to the gains to hit a record high. >> a giant thing to do if he can get tax reform done. >> a lot of work to do. >>> let's see what is coming up on "new day." chris cuomo. lucky us. he is talking to us. >> not only could that be a huge thing, but a great thing for the president if he can get something done. give him a broad base appe

kellyanne conway is a special adviser to donald trump. she referred to the bowling green massacre, something which didn't exist. she also came out yesterday afternoon to say that michael flynn, the former security adviser, enjoyed the full support of president trump, only for him to resign a few hours later. the white house has said that kellyanne conway has been counselled about her comments regarding ivanka trump's products, we will wait to see whether any punishment is handed out to her. now, a unique opportunity from the bbc — applications are now open for the bbc world news komla dumor award. ivanka it was launched in 2015 following the unexpected death of the bbc‘s komla dumor in 2014 — at the age ofjust 41. komla was an outstanding african journalist and much—loved across the continent, so the aim of this award is to continue his legacy by recognising and nurturing the next generation ofjournalism talent in africa. it's the third year now of this award, and this is how you can get involved. in memory of our friend and colle

i understand. >> comments also from kellyanne conway from earlier this week. this is not what she was counciled about but something she said to cnn earlier this week is that is it president doesn't comment on everything, so i want to contrast the statements about nordstrom with the lack of comments about some other things including for example the attack on quebec mosque and other similar environments. why is the president when he chooses -- >> you just brought that up. i opened a briefing a couple of days ago about the president and his condolences i literally opened the briefing about it. why are you asking why he didn't do it when i literally stood here and -- >> kellyanne's comments were that the president doesn't have time to tweet about everything. >> right. >> he's not tweeting about this. >> i came out and -- >> you're akwequating me with a tweet -- thank you you've asked your question, thank you. >> does that not diminish the language that you're using? >> go ahead. >> -- by republicans was his executive use of orders, and the president signed three m

with kellyanne conway, it's wrong. it should never happen again. >> that sentiment was shared by chaffetz' cow leagues on both sides of the aisle. >> i'm going to give a free commercial here. go buy it today, everybody. go buy it online. >> reporter: it was a sales pitch for the boardroom rather than -- >> this is a textbook violation of the federal ethics rules. >> chris lew is a former obama administration staff. he was told on day one an employee shall not use his public office for the endor endorseme endorseme endorsement. >> reporter: the republican chair of the oversight committee called conway's comments wrong, wrong, wrong, clearly over the line, unacceptable. the white house appeared to agree. press secretary sean spicer. kellyanne has been counseled and that's all we're going to go with. >> reporter: it comes a day after president trump blasted the retailer for dropping ivanka's brand. they sent a letter to the office of government ethics, calling on them to determine whether conway should be disciplined. the

jason chaffetz called conway's comments wrong and out of bounds. it was not just a high-profile plug for ivanka trump's clothing line, but it violated a ethics law. it bars public employees for using private office from endorsing any product. here's what conway told fox news on thursday. >> i do find it ironic you have some executives all over the internet bragging about what they have done to her and her line, and yet they are using the most prominent woman in donald trump's -- most prominent -- his daughter, and they are using her, who has been a champion for women in power and women in the workplace to get to him. go buy ivanka's stuff is what i would say. i hate shopping, i'm going to get some myself today. it's a wonderful line, i own some of it. i will give a free commercial here, go buy it today, everybody. go buy it online. >> for ethics experts, it raised red flags especially after 24 hours donald trump attacked nordstrom saying it would no longer carry his daughter's products. the company says it was not political, based solely on poor sa

counselor to the president, kellyanne conway is our guest, that is just ahead. obviously a lot to get to with her. also on the agenda, very serious questions about national security advisor michael flynn. did he have conversations with the russian ambassador before taking office about those sanctions that the obama administration opposed? no answers today from president trump, the question in fact didn't even come up at his press conference, but we will ask our guest about that in just a minute. also, on our agenda, stocks closing out record highs, once again today, is it the trump effect? our own stephanie rule is going to come back to join me and explain what is it that wall street seems to like about the way things are going right now? we begin though with our top story, inside the trump white house. the president at his press conference with the canadian prime minister justin trudeau just last hour. he did not get any questions from those he called on about michael flynn. national security advisor. flynn under scrutiny after a flood of press this weekend sur

>> well, first of all, kellyanne conway is a train wreck. starts out her job by talking about alternative facts and caught in a massive lie and here she clearly violates federal law by urging people to buy a product that is associated with the president. but, again, it starts from the top. the president attacked nordstrom's. kellyanne conway takes her lead from the tone that's set by the president. look, this is an administration that doesn't believe the president himself said that he's not con strant by any conflicts laws. that permeates through the entire administration. >> let's give the viewers that law. it's u.s. code. it says an employee shall not use his public office for his own private gain for endorsement of product, service or enterprise. so that's what it says. we are seeing at least the beginning os of oversight over this administration. let's go over to pete williams and talk a little bit about neil gorsuch. a lot of controversy right now about whether or not neil gorsuch has the obligation to go out in front of the american pe

he said that kellyanne conway has been counseled about this incident. that word choice not sitting well the president trump. a senior administration official says he hated that word choice that sean spicer used talking about this specific incident. >> sunlen, great reporting. let's talk about this. joining us is our panel, jennifer granholm former governor of michigan and jeffrey lord cnn political commentator and contributing editor at "american spectator." >> good morning, poppy. >> good friday morning. lots of news. >> yes. >> do you think, jeffrey, that kellyanne conway owed an apology to the president for that? >> i'm sure she probably felt that way. to be candid, i think this whole thing is ridiculous. >> why is it ridiculous, jeffrey? jason chaffetz, a republican along with democrats on the house oversight committee sent a letter to the government ethics office saying this is a clear violation of the ethics code. >> i understand. poppy, this is emblematic of an anti private sector feeling that has control of washington, sometimes frankly in both

that was an hour after kellyanne conway had said on msnbc that the president had confidence in general flynn. but clearly, this report that has since broken that sally yates, the former acting attorney general, had warned general flynn and members of the white house top team several weeks ago that there was a risk the russians could be blackmailing general flynn with information about communications with general flynn that he had not reported accurately to his colleagues. brian? >> andrea, for folks just tuning in who haven't followed this story as you and i have today, let me see if i get this right. new sanctions come out in the waning days and hours, really, of the obama administration -- >> correct. >> -- and we expect russia and putin to react, react angrily as they usually do, but they don't. and the absence of a negative reaction causes american intel officials to look back through the intel that they take in all the time, that both sides know they take in all the time. buried in that intel is a conversation between mike flynn, who is poised to be the national security adviser t

listen, we have ivanka, we have kellyanne conway hawking ivanka's goods. we have president trump himself tweeting, attacking nordstrom for the way they've handled her brands. we talked about this yesterday. we have stories about melania, the first lady, a lawsuit filed on her behalf saying an article in a particular publication harmed her chances of making basically a bonanza on her line of goods while the president is in office. you take all that together, whether they're violations or not violations of rules, i think most americans agree that it's tacky. >> and tamara, now we have this added intrigue, our reporting that kellyanne conway apologized to the president, he was apparently gracious and stood by her, and apparently not at all happy with how white house press secretary sean spicer responded to the whole thing when he said that kellyanne conway had been counseled about those comments. it almost seems like internally, you know, sean spicer gets hit with everything. >> this white house is a likeea leaky seive and often sean spicer is the target of t

this is what kellyanne conway said on fox and friends. we'll listen to the moment. >> they're using the most prominent woman in donald trump's -- women in power, women in the, would place to get to him. i think people can see through that. go buy ivanka's stuff. i hate shopping and i'm going to go get some myself today. >> this after the president using the potus twitter account from the white house presumably, slamming nordstrom for dropping that line. here is what nordstrom said. they said they maefd this decision based on performance, it was a business decision. as we know, retailers are not rolling in the dough right now. if a line is doing very well, they keep it. they say over the past year, particularly in the last half of 2016 sales of the brand have steadily declined to the point where it didn't make good business sense for us to continue with the line for now. that is the statement there and the company said they had told ivanka this in january. the question is, is where is ivanka trump in all this? did her dad get defensive and

kellyanne conway can get out of anything by shifting blame. she should be bill cosby's lawyer. 15 minute trial and the jury will be angry at mariah careyy's sound guy.

and kellyanne conway said the same thing. with all the things people should be worried about, eight seconds on "fox and friends?" it's kind of a chatty show. it's not like everything -- i don't get it. do you get it? >> i think for democrats, they see this as an opening to maybe start to investigate the trump administration. remember, they've been questioning a lot about the president's ties to businesses. the president isn't held accountable to the same government ethics rules that his staff is. so democrats can see this as an opening and maybe smell a little blood in the water here to get in there and start investigating. >> shepard: so like in a courtroom, if you bring up a topic that hasn't been brought up by the opposing side, it's ready for the opposing side and they're using that tactic? this investigation wouldn't be about this, but to broaden it to other areas of interest regarding his money and finances and his businesses? >> yeah, we could see that happening. people are still asking to see the president's tax retur

>> it deepens that credibility issue for conway. it's more about the president. whatever conway was told by the president. if the president had full confidence in him by 4:00 p.m. that's not the decisive leader that the apprentice showed us on tv. >> you know what -- the bottom line is, kellyanne conway is a pro. not a lot of pros in this white house. people like to make trouble in this white house and this ain't a tv show and we're seeing it play out in real time. >> bill and brian, thank you very much. >>> thanks to our international viewers for watching us. "cnn newsroom" is next. for u.s. viewers "new day" continues next. >>> this is cnn breaks news. >>> welcome to your "new day." we begin with breaking news. trump's national security advise irmichael flynn resigning. the fire storm how he possibly misled the white house about his possible communications about sanctions before president trump took office. >> alysin says possibly, because the facts don't point this is all about michael flynn. the intelligence officials warned the trump white house weeks ago th

kellyanne conway. [applause] mercedes: what drives you? kellyanne: first of all, everything you just said is an absolute blessing. women in the country work so hard, and not all of them get their shot. and i feel like i worked hard and got my opportunity which puts me in a different category of blessings. i was raised in a house, i call it south jersey's version of golden girls. nobody ever had a single political conversation. my mom, her mom, two of her sisters, but my father left while i was very young. but i was raised to be a very strong and independent woman. we just were taught to be freethinking, independent, and look at your goals, and that old saying, you can never go home, it was never true in my community. we always felt we could go home. i believe donald trump is someone who is not fully understood for how compassionate and what a great boss is to women. he has been promoting and elevating women in the trump corporation, in the trump campaign, in the trump's cabinet, in the trump white house, it is a very natural affinity for h

kellyanne conway is paid by the taxpayers, she's paid by us. we all, not just journalists, people watching this program, expect attention to detail and attention to the facts. ultimately it's not about journalists who are just bothered by this, it's about all the people online on that social media that larry was talking about, who look at this and laugh but there's something more than laughter too. she's sowing fear, creating fear and confusion. that's not helpful when we're talking about a controversial policy. >> i'll correct a minor mistake i just made, it's 13 hours, not 13 days. >> that's what we do, we correct our mistakes. what is their accountability at all? will she apologize for this, address it in more detail, or will spicer blame the media? >> you bring up mr. trump believes there are all these fraudulent votes and he was going to launch this big investigation. we haven't really heard much about that. he seems to be backing away from that. so is he now discovering that, you know, the american people aren't quite so gullible any long

after kellyanne conway, there have been plenty of lawyers gone on tv and not necessarily told the truth all the time. why go after her >> going after kellyanne conway is a response to the fact that she has the loudist mega phone at the moment and she has the greatest responsibility. it's one thing for a lawyer to say something in private. it's quite another to go into the public arena and speak dishonestly and we think that principle is so important it has been enforced and it's not always enforced for sure but in this kind of a situation, with all of the, that is riding on everything she says these days, it is incredibly important, particularly in a world of alternative facts when we, as a profession want to be remind our students, colleagues at the bar, judges and everyone else, that we have special standards that apply to lawyers and they even when you're a public citizen? what is it you're hoping comes out of this letter? you know, perhaps disbarment but what can happen to her when it comes to punishment via the white house? >> she is suspended because she hasn't paid her bar dues.

the white house says pres trump "absolutely" continues to support conway. meanwhile, president trump says he intends to roll back regulations and promote investment in airports. he made the remarks yesterday during a white house meeting with executives from more than a dozen airports and airlines. he said he'll announce a plan in the next three weeks to reduce taxes on businesses. the executives who emerged from the meeting called it a positive session. the sister-in-law of one of the san bernardino shooters will be sentenced in november, in a case involving immigration fraud. tatiana farook pleaded guilty yesterday. her attorney admitted.. farook sought permanent residency for her sister, by claiming her sister was married to enrique marquez. investigators say marquez is suspected of having ties to the 20-15 mass shooting that left 14 people dead. if convicted, tatiana farook faces up to five years in federal prison. the snow in the northeast is inconvenient for some.. but others are enjoying it. the snow has forced schools across new england to close. som

kellyanne conway is a special adviser to donald trump. it was she who referred to the bowling green massacre, something which didn't exist, and she also came out yesterday afternoon to say michael flynn, the former national security adviser, enjoy the full support of president trump, only for him to resign if you hours later for the white house has said that kellyanne conway has been counselled about her comment regarding ivanka trump's products and we will wait to see what punishment if any is given to her. another one to watch. thank you for that. the united nations says it's willing to use further force against militia in the central african republic to prevent the country sliding back into anarchy. thousands of un peacekeepers have been deployed amid fears of genocide. rival christian and muslim militias began fighting in the car more than three years ago. one fragile un red line is around the town of bambari, where thousands of civilians have sought shelter. from there our special correspondent fergal keane reports. out in the countr

kellyanne conway said general flynn decided he should we sign last night and the president accepted that resignation, it was the president who demanded the resignation after he lost complete trust in his ability to carry on those national security responsibilities. very, very stark words from sean spicer. >> right. if you were to do a word cloud today i think the word trust would be the biggest on the page because what sean was emphasizing here was that he did not, and the white house does not consider this a matter of national security or even a legal infraction. what they said is it came down to an issue of trust what we called an evolving and eroding process. and sean did tell us a lot more about the timeline of all this was -- and what we learned is that it took the president 18 days from when he first heard about this to when in fact he did tell the national security adviser to resign and that they were informed by the department of justice and that they waited and that the department of justice he says waited to tell them until january 26th. that is when they were told and you will

conway repeatedly an attack that never happened. >> i would like to know what the counseling was. it would have been the bare minimum that would have happened. >> the top republican sent a letter to ethics calling on whether conway should be discipli disciplined. the president will have the final say but they noted he has a conflict of ies conway was hawking his daughter's products. >>> a new attorney general, jeff sessions of alabama. >> so help me god. >> i wish the rise we are seeing in crime in america were some sort of aberration or a blip. having been involved in criminal law enforcement for many years is that this is a dangerous permanent trend. >> sessions was sworn in by mike pence and later made his first stop at the justice department which he will now lead. it was a drawn out angry affair. more now from nancy. >> now that sessions is leaving he has advice for the battle behind. >> in the future maybe the intensity would die down. >> in what now passes one democrat joined every republican in voting to confirm sessions for attorney general. he urged excolleagues to treat

conway: it is new information after -- that there was a man that -- ban. they were the masterminds behind the bowling green massacres. amy: that is fake news. we will talk about real news when the government did feel able -- fear a bowling green massacre from a white supremacist. all that and more, coming up. welcome to democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. a federal appeals court in san francisco has unanimously upheld a suspension of president trump executive order temporarily banning people from seven muslim-majority countries from entering the united states. thursday's decision appears headed for an appeal to the supreme court. president trump responded to the ruling, tweeting, "see you in court, the security of our nation is at stake." in washington state, the attorney general who successfully challenged trump's muslim ban, dan ferguson, hailed the ruling. court ofson: the appeals, in a unanimous decision, effectively granted everything we thought. we are a nation of law, and as i have said, as we have said from

eastern kellyanne conway says the president has full confidence with flynn. then the press secretary sean spicer says the president is evaluating the situation. no repeat of the words full confidence. and then they put out another statement saying that that is the operative statement, that's what the president wants the public to know, that the situation is being evaluated? >> this is the first three weeks of a new administration, but it suggests they haven't gotten their sea legs. and there is a keystone aspect to their operation. having concern on the message on such an important issue on whether the national security adviser retains the president's confidence or is being reviewsed, is a message control issue and i think that this frankly does not reflect well on the trump administration. >> we heard on the democratic leader, chuck schumer, he wants an independent investigation of flynn, conversations he had with the russian ambassador to the united states and in the meantime he wants flynn's national security clearances to be revoked. do you agree with him

tonight ethics experts in the house oversight committee headed by republican jason chaffetz want conway punished for the plug. this all stems from nordstrom's dropping ivanka trump's clothing line. they said because of poor sales. >> look, it was out of bounds. there is no if, ands or buts about it. of course we're going to call it out. it needs to be dealt with. >> earlier today the white house said conway was, quote, counseled about her remarks. she appeared on fox news tonight and said president trump still su push another one of president trump's cabinet nominees through the senate despite hours of objections from democrats. you are looking live at what's happening on the senate floor right now where we expect the vote over tom price for health and human services secretary sometime after 1:00 a.m. republicans say the sergeant and seven-term member of the house is the man to help repeal and replace the affordable care act. democrats says he has a shady history of trading health care stocks and his policies will leave more americans uninsured. >>> there will be a parent and teacher vi

her guest, counselor to the president, kellyanne conway. that is up next. >> martha: breaking tonight, we are awaiting the very first reaction from the white house. kellyanne conway about to join us after her ongoing meeting with the president and the white house right now. we will also get remarks in the governor of washington state after the ninth circuit court of appeals rejects national security warnings from the president and rules against the white house for the first showdown between president trump and the courts, which has happened just 21 days into his still young presidency. i am martha maccallum entasis "the first 100 days" with a lot of breaking news tonight. so, moments ago, the judges that you heard debating my case live here handed down the highly anticipated disaster and against the president. they will not allow the president's executive orders on the extreme vetting, the controversial and serious campaign promises to go forward for now. the decision nearly guarantees that despite it will go to the supreme court most likel
