Trump admin ordered to produce list of travelers detained under ban. A federal judge in New York ordered the Trump administration to produce a list of all persons detained as part of the president's executive order that limited travel and immigration from seven countries as well as temporarily shut down the refugee program. Brooklyn federal judge Carol Bagley Amon delivered the order Tuesday, asking for the names of people held for questioning or processed from Jan. 28 at 9:37 pm -- when another Brooklyn judge halted part of the ban that allowed for deportations -- until Jan. 29 at 11:59 pm.

Trump denounces anti-Semitic threats as 'horrible' after facing criticism. President Donald Trump denounced anti-Semitism Tuesday after facing criticism that he has not come out strongly enough against recent threats directed at U.S. Jewish centers,
ABC's VERONICA STRACQUALURSI writes. \"The anti-Semitic threats targeting our Jewish community and community centers are horrible and are painful and a very sad reminder of the work that still must be done to root out hate and prejudice and evil,\" Trump remarked after touring the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.

McMaster needs Senate confirmation because he's a 3-star general. The position of national security adviser does not require Senate confirmation, but when three-star generals like Trump's pick for the position, H.R. McMaster, change jobs within the service they do need the approval. The rule has nothing to do with the White House, but rather the military: all three and four-star generals must receive Senate confirmation whenever they seek to change jobs. What does this mean for McMaster?
ABC's ALI ROGIN and
LUIS MARTINEZ explain:

How H.R. McMaster's military rank could affect his role as national security adviser. The naming of Army Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster as President Trump's new national security adviser has raised some questions about how an active duty officer can serve in the job. It has been done before. McMaster will be the fourth active duty military officer to serve as national security adviser. There are some challenges that an Army three star general could face in the role while remaining on active duty.
ABC's LUIS MARTINEZ looks at some of the potential issues facing McMaster.
