Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D., Md.) falsely claimed on Friday that no individuals from the seven countries on President Trump's temporary travel ban had committed terrorist acts on United States soil.
MSNBC anchor Kate Snow asked Van Hollen to weigh in on the travel ban and clarify his position on whether he thought the United States was safer without the travel ban.
"Oh I think we are safer without the travel ban," Van Hollen said. "First, we know—and the court found this—that no individuals from these seven countries have committed terrorist acts in the United States.
"It was pure demagoguery and fear mongering for the president to suggest that this was somehow going to make us safer," Van Hollen added.
Van Hollen's claim is contradicted by a list released Wednesday by the Trump administration that included 24 examples of refugees and other immigrants from Somalia, Sudan, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Syria, and Libya arrested on terror-related charges, Fox News reported.

Well, this confirms the liberal idiots have yet voted in another lying obstructionist to thwart md's recovery. Stupid is as stupid does!
I am very unhappy to see Maryland associated with this ill informed person. My only consolation is I didn't vote for him!
Another democrat that's wrong, go figure.
Make that two of us who didn't vote for this guy. His record spoke for him, but nobody actually read it before voting, voting only for the (D) after his name instead.
I hope that someone is keeping a tally of (D)'s who are pushing fake news and lies, and what that fake news and those lies are, so that they can be put up as a feature.
vonholland a democrat and there isnt' a democrat alive who doesn't lie constantly. They prove it time and time again-all democrats are liars.
as the stomach turns...more lies from the left...
Van Hollen was the mouthpiece for the lying left on the Sunday shows when he was in the House.
Looks like he still has that job. And it amazes me that it seems to bother him so little.. the stuff just rolls right off of his tongue.
Majority of Democrats either can't read or are too lazy to, they seem to rely upon someone else reading for them or hearsay. My favorite quote is Pepsi with "we have to pass it to SEE what's in it" and not read it to find out!
Von Hollen is a lying turd. But what would you expect from another POS Democ-rat from PG County MD.

Liberals voted him in and they got this POS that is assisting in making MD a sanctuary state. The central / southern portion of MD can keep these illegals over there.
