BREAKING NEWS: Trump's message to new citizens

The moment that Juliet Sanchez had been anticipating for nearly 30 years had arrived. Flanked by the original US Constitution and Declaration of Independence, she and 29 other immigrants from 22 countries became US citizens Friday morning.

While the new Americans watched a recorded message from President Donald Trump welcoming them to the United States, the President, from just a few blocks up Pennsylvania Avenue, nearly simultaneously was tweeting his opposition to "chain migration," a term referring to the process of immigrating to the country based on family connections.
