:00:18. > :00:32.He is seeking to fundamentally change Homeric operates and fits
:00:33. > :00:35.into our world. The still happening. I would say I'm certainly planning
:00:36. > :00:36.on starting immediately. The President's also said
:00:37. > :00:38.he approves of waterboarding, that he may send federal agents
:00:39. > :00:41.into cities that can't control crime, that some federal agencies
:00:42. > :00:43.can't communicate with the press, that he looks set to severely
:00:44. > :00:55.restrict immigration There are reports in US media that
:00:56. > :01:00.the president intends to drastically reduce the role of the US at the UN,
:01:01. > :01:03.and he supports the creation of safe zones for civilians inside Syria.
:01:04. > :01:04.They would require someone's troops on the ground.
:01:05. > :01:08.Plus this is how he'll deal with illegal immigration from Mexico.
:01:09. > :01:16.We are going to get the bad ones out, the criminals and the drug
:01:17. > :01:21.dealers and the gangs and gang members and cartel leaders.
:01:22. > :01:25.Across the hour we will cover every development in the US. If you have
:01:26. > :01:31.questions and, my goodness, I think we all do, the hashtag is #BBCOS,
:01:32. > :01:32.you can e-mail or find me on social media. We will answer your questions
:01:33. > :01:53.across the hour. It is a measure of how extraordinary
:01:54. > :01:56.today is that when the president of America announces a major
:01:57. > :02:01.investigation into voter fraud, voter fraud for which there is no
:02:02. > :02:06.evidence whatsoever, it is ranking about nine four tenths in the most
:02:07. > :02:10.significant developments of the day. Across the hour, Anthony Zurcher
:02:11. > :02:16.will be live from Washington, DC. We have not seen many days like this?
:02:17. > :02:21.It is pretty remarkable and the challenge is to try to draw the line
:02:22. > :02:25.between what Trump is tweeting, saying during interviews and
:02:26. > :02:29.speeches and the actual executive action is getting documents on so we
:02:30. > :02:34.can see what is actually taking place as far as policy. That is the
:02:35. > :02:39.challenge, you will help us meet it. And Thiney is here, if you have
:02:40. > :02:42.questions, #BBCOS is the hashtag. We will go through the issues one by
:02:43. > :02:44.one, starting with immigration. Donald Trump always promised
:02:45. > :02:45.action on immigration. He's signed an executive
:02:46. > :02:57.order to build a wall There are elements of a wall on that
:02:58. > :02:58.border already but he wants one that goes the full distance.
:02:59. > :03:01.And his plan is that Mexico will pick up the cost.
:03:02. > :03:06.Here's Donald Trump in an interview he's just done with the ABC News.
:03:07. > :03:12.Are you going to direct US funds to pay for this wall, with American
:03:13. > :03:17.taxpayers pay for the wall? Ultimately it will come out of what
:03:18. > :03:21.has happened with Mexico, we will stop those negotiations relatively
:03:22. > :03:28.soon and be formally reimbursed by Mexico. They will pay us back? 100%.
:03:29. > :03:32.Is the American taxpayer will pay out first? We will be reimbursed
:03:33. > :03:37.later from whatever transaction we make with Mexico. Mexico's president
:03:38. > :03:42.said that Mexico absolutely will not pay, adding that it goes against our
:03:43. > :03:47.dignity as a country and as Mexicans. But he has to say that. I
:03:48. > :03:56.am just telling you there will be a payment, it will be in a form,
:03:57. > :03:59.perhaps a complicated form, you have to understand that what I am doing
:04:00. > :04:03.is good for the United States, it will also be good for Mexico. We
:04:04. > :04:08.want a very stable and solid Mexico. Went as construction begin? Sooner
:04:09. > :04:15.is we physically can. Within months? I would say so, planning on starting
:04:16. > :04:17.immediately. Hours later he was at the department of homeland security
:04:18. > :04:23.outlining his plans in more detail to a packed audience.
:04:24. > :04:29.The secretary of Homeland Security, working with myself and my stuff,
:04:30. > :04:33.will begin immediate construction of a border wall. -- working with
:04:34. > :04:41.myself and my staff. APPLAUSE
:04:42. > :04:44.We are going to get the bad ones out.
:04:45. > :04:50.The criminals and the drug dealers and gangs and gang members and
:04:51. > :04:54.cartel leaders. The day is over when they can stay in our country and
:04:55. > :05:02.recover, we are going to get them out and get them out fast, and John
:05:03. > :05:06.Kerry is going to lead that. Let's bring in Anthony in
:05:07. > :05:12.Washington, presumably the idea is that the war itself will get the bad
:05:13. > :05:16.ones out, it is part of a broader package of policies? -- the idea is
:05:17. > :05:19.that the wall itself. The God he talks about ending catch and
:05:20. > :05:27.release, people come over the border and are not formally deported.
:05:28. > :05:31.Talking about cracking down on sanctuary cities, US municipalities,
:05:32. > :05:35.more than 200 of them across the country, major cities like Los
:05:36. > :05:40.Angeles, Seattle, New York City, Washington and Boston turned --
:05:41. > :05:44.Boston and Washington, DC, they don't ask for immigration status
:05:45. > :05:48.from people living within their borders. The Trump administration
:05:49. > :05:53.says they will deny federal funds to cities with these policies unless
:05:54. > :06:00.they change, that is a marked change from past president. And boosted
:06:01. > :06:03.immigration funding or customs and enforcement, the hiring of new
:06:04. > :06:07.immigration officers, across-the-board spending and focus
:06:08. > :06:12.on rounding people up along the borders and sending them back and
:06:13. > :06:15.being more diligent about processing people who have already been brought
:06:16. > :06:19.into the law enforcement and immigration system.
:06:20. > :06:22.Lots of questions coming in already, one from if you are in the
:06:23. > :06:27.Netherlands wanting you to answer what is an executive order and how
:06:28. > :06:34.much power does it have? An executive order is a unilateral use
:06:35. > :06:38.of presidential power, they are kept track of by numbers, signed by the
:06:39. > :06:43.president, printed in the Federal register, they have binding power of
:06:44. > :06:46.law over executive agencies, they are different than laws passed by
:06:47. > :06:51.Congress which have more broad powers not just over the way
:06:52. > :06:54.executive agencies behave but all branches of the federal Government,
:06:55. > :06:58.there are different levels of presidential authority, a
:06:59. > :07:02.presidential declaration is the highest, and executive order is
:07:03. > :07:06.next, a memorandum which does not have to be published if slightly
:07:07. > :07:09.lower, directives are lower. Lots of it is almost non-mature, a way of
:07:10. > :07:14.organising them and resolving conflicts between them, but
:07:15. > :07:18.presidents recently, particularly George Dubya Bush and Barack Obama,
:07:19. > :07:24.have relied heavily on executive action when trying to get policies
:07:25. > :07:29.implemented that Congress is not willing to turn into permanent law.
:07:30. > :07:33.Andreu in the UK says don't executive orders have to be
:07:34. > :07:40.sanctioned by Congress or the Senate or the judiciary? No. Executive
:07:41. > :07:45.orders are done by the president and don't require any oversight or
:07:46. > :07:49.sanctioning from other bodies. Don't go anywhere, you will be with his
:07:50. > :08:01.across the hour. Keep the questions coming, #BBCOS is the hashtag, the
:08:02. > :08:05.e-mail is os@bbc.co.uk. Then asks what the estimated cost of the war
:08:06. > :08:11.will be, Mr Trump is putting between $8 billion and $10 billion, he says
:08:12. > :08:14.that Mexico will pay back in time. Absent surprisingly the Mexican
:08:15. > :08:23.president is not very clean on that idea. -- perhaps not surprisingly.
:08:24. > :08:26."It is evident that we have some differences with the new government
:08:27. > :08:29.of the United States, like the topic of the wall that
:08:30. > :08:36.We have a corresponding to Mexico City, I spoke to him earlier. In
:08:37. > :08:40.fact, he is he alive, I thought I was going to be playing one of your
:08:41. > :08:43.reports, and here you are, that is great. Tellers about how the Mexican
:08:44. > :08:50.Government is indicating it will play this challenge?
:08:51. > :08:56.I think you made the point that the Mexican president and his whole
:08:57. > :09:00.Cabinet, and a very large portion of this country, are on one single
:09:01. > :09:05.message to Mr Trump, they will not pay for this wall, not at the time
:09:06. > :09:10.of construction or in the future. There is a very serious conflict to
:09:11. > :09:13.be resolved. Obviously Mr Trump has suggested that federal funds United
:09:14. > :09:18.States will be used initially and they will somehow be reimbursed
:09:19. > :09:21.later, exactly how was still to be defined, whether there is some sort
:09:22. > :09:27.of border tax or what he has in mind, we do not know. Wherever you
:09:28. > :09:31.look, the presidential palace, the factory shop floor, workers on the
:09:32. > :09:36.streets in Mexico City, on the border region itself, people are
:09:37. > :09:42.really with one voice, as far as I have seen, they reject this policy
:09:43. > :09:46.not just as aimed towards them and splitting up families and stopping
:09:47. > :09:51.people coming across the border, but many people going as far as to call
:09:52. > :09:55.it a racist and xenophobic. We have a question from Lynette
:09:56. > :10:01.watching on the BBC News Channel, if Mexico was forced to pay for this,
:10:02. > :10:08.make it pivot away to Russia and China to seek further economic ties,
:10:09. > :10:12.or are Mexico and the US too closely intertwined? That is interesting,
:10:13. > :10:17.everything is happening at once, we also have the Nafta trade agreement,
:10:18. > :10:20.the North American Free Trade Agreement, Mr Trump said he will
:10:21. > :10:25.effectively rip that up or at the very least we negotiate. Mexico says
:10:26. > :10:29.they would be prepared to walk away from the agreement if it was no
:10:30. > :10:36.longer favourable to Mexico's needs and terms. At the same time the
:10:37. > :10:39.United States is walking away from the transpacific free-trade
:10:40. > :10:42.agreement which might open up things for China. The whole trade
:10:43. > :10:47.relationship between Mexico and the United States is sorted up for grabs
:10:48. > :10:56.at the moment. That said, it is one of the most long-lasting and solid
:10:57. > :11:00.relationships in Latin America, and what I was gaining in understanding
:11:01. > :11:03.from what Mr Trump said was that the United States continues to want to
:11:04. > :11:07.see a strong Mexican economy and that somehow the wall will benefit
:11:08. > :11:12.Mexico in those terms. It is still very, very early days but there is a
:11:13. > :11:17.lot to be negotiated. Thank you very much.
:11:18. > :11:21.One question said perhaps the Mexicans will refuse, what will
:11:22. > :11:26.happen then, but what Donald Trump has said and what Will was saying is
:11:27. > :11:30.that he wants to look at the interrogation ship between Mexico
:11:31. > :11:34.and the US, including trade and the wall, and any cost of the wall will
:11:35. > :11:35.be built into the negotiations and warned that the deal might be
:11:36. > :11:37.complicated. The White House also announced today
:11:38. > :11:39.that they would cut funding These are American cities,
:11:40. > :11:42.counties or states that protect undocumented immigrants
:11:43. > :11:44.from deportation by limiting cooperation with federal
:11:45. > :11:55.immigration authorities. Seattle, Los Angeles and San
:11:56. > :11:57.Francisco as well as Chicago, Two days after Mr Trump won
:11:58. > :12:11.the election, New York's Mayor said, "We are not going to sacrifice
:12:12. > :12:13.a half-million people who live amongst us,
:12:14. > :12:16.who are part of our communities. We're not going to tear
:12:17. > :12:28.families apart." Let's bring Anthony Zurcher back-in,
:12:29. > :12:32.the president said it was not about tearing apart communities but
:12:33. > :12:37.dealing with illegal immigration, presumably? Two decidedly different
:12:38. > :12:41.ways of looking at this issue. Republicans in the past and up
:12:42. > :12:45.through Donald Trump have seen this as major urban cities, often varied
:12:46. > :12:50.many of them are left-leaning, thumbing their nose at the federal
:12:51. > :12:52.Government and subverting their efforts at law-enforcement. This
:12:53. > :12:58.cities look at it as a way of taking care of people within their borders,
:12:59. > :13:01.if there are people who do not have normalised immigration status does
:13:02. > :13:05.not mean that they can't get government services or will not
:13:06. > :13:08.benefit from education, if they somehow just flat-out denied the
:13:09. > :13:12.services to people within their borders there all sorts of
:13:13. > :13:17.compensating factors that could make things even more difficult for the
:13:18. > :13:23.cities to manage. It is setting up a conflict the Trump administration
:13:24. > :13:26.and some powerful cities throughout the country, and it is helping to
:13:27. > :13:31.divide this country again on political terms because, as you may
:13:32. > :13:35.have noticed, lots of the cities in California, New York, Washington and
:13:36. > :13:38.Illinois, those states went for Hillary Clinton are not Donald
:13:39. > :13:42.Trump. Two more questions, they'll is in
:13:43. > :13:51.Kenny and says Canet President Rousseff and the previous executive
:13:52. > :14:00.order? -- bill is watching in Kenya and says can a president rescinds a
:14:01. > :14:05.previous executive order. Yes, one of the first things that Donald
:14:06. > :14:16.Trump reinstated after Obama rescinded it was to do with
:14:17. > :14:19.educational groups that might mention abortion. The thing about
:14:20. > :14:23.executive actions as they are only good as long as a president as it is
:14:24. > :14:27.in power, somebody else can come in and change them, they do not have
:14:28. > :14:32.the written power of law. There is a real fascination with this issue,
:14:33. > :14:36.one more tweets coming in from Will watching on the BBC News Channel in
:14:37. > :14:40.the UK, if the president can sign as many executive orders as he wants,
:14:41. > :14:48.does this not create a dictatorship and a threat to US democracy? That
:14:49. > :14:51.was a criticism, ironically enough, launched by conservatives against
:14:52. > :14:55.Barack Obama. He used executive orders to defer deportation for
:14:56. > :15:01.children, undocumented children who had come into the country and stayed
:15:02. > :15:05.here, and lots of Conservatives said it was a broad overreach of
:15:06. > :15:09.presidential power. Now you see it on the other side, Donald Trump
:15:10. > :15:13.using his executive authority to change immigration rules and you
:15:14. > :15:20.hear an outcry from the left. There seems to be a pretty substantial
:15:21. > :15:23.ground for justification for the president using this power, it has
:15:24. > :15:27.been challenged in court and a pelt before, but it is an expansion of
:15:28. > :15:30.presidential power and many are not happy and would much prefer to see
:15:31. > :15:35.the sorts of policies going through Congress the way they say this
:15:36. > :15:40.Government was devised. Anthony Zurcher, live with us from the BBC

:15:45. > :15:48.spending the whole hour talking about the Trump administration
:15:49. > :15:54.because it is moving at huge speed and changing facets of how America
:15:55. > :15:57.operates within its border but also how America fits into the world.
:15:58. > :16:02.Your questions are very welcome, we will do our best to answer them.

:16:11. > :16:13.Theresa May says the Government will publish a white paper

:17:03. > :17:16.that the plan will be set out in a White Paper published in this House.
:17:17. > :17:21.This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom.
:17:22. > :17:24.Our lead story is Donald Trump has signed executive orders launching
:17:25. > :17:27.plans to build a wall on the US-Mexico border and limiting
:17:28. > :17:40.funds to cities that protect illegal immigrants.
:17:41. > :17:45.We are talking about a number of stories, there have been a number of
:17:46. > :17:48.significant developments involving the Trump administration. Earlier we
:17:49. > :17:52.talked about Mr Trump saying he would get on with building the
:17:53. > :17:56.border wall between America and US, he has changed the way that
:17:57. > :18:00.sanctuary cities operate, these are cities that don't necessarily
:18:01. > :18:03.cooperate with federal agencies looking at immigration, Mr Trump
:18:04. > :18:07.wants to change that. Then this story which the New York
:18:08. > :18:12.Times is running, an article that claims, the BBC is not able to
:18:13. > :18:15.confirm, that the Trump administration is preparing
:18:16. > :18:18.executive orders that would drastically reduce the US role in
:18:19. > :18:24.the United Nations and other international organisations.
:18:25. > :18:28.Let's go back to Anthony live in Washington, DC. Is anybody else
:18:29. > :18:32.backing up this New York Times article? That is the only report I
:18:33. > :18:37.have seen at the moment but it doesn't surprise me given the level
:18:38. > :18:40.of rhetoric coming out of the Trump administration and Trump on the
:18:41. > :18:44.campaign Trail directed towards international organisations and the
:18:45. > :18:47.UN, which has attracted a particular amount of scorn from conservative
:18:48. > :18:51.circles when the Security Council had their resolution condemning
:18:52. > :18:57.Israel for its involvement in the occupied territories, so I think
:18:58. > :19:02.this reflects that. Nonetheless, if this happened, and I
:19:03. > :19:05.don't mean to be melodramatic, it would fundamentally reshape the way
:19:06. > :19:09.that all the major international bodies in the world work, wouldn't
:19:10. > :19:17.it? The US is central to them at the moment. UN bashing is nothing new
:19:18. > :19:20.among Republicans, I remember Ronald Reagan made comments about the UN at
:19:21. > :19:27.the time, it was not followed by action. We will have to wait and see
:19:28. > :19:31.exactly what the details, the parameters of what the Trump
:19:32. > :19:36.administration is proposing, if it is merely reducing US funds going to
:19:37. > :19:39.the UN that is nothing particularly new, republican governments have
:19:40. > :19:44.done that before, drastically cutting back support for
:19:45. > :19:50.environmental issues and various other causes in the UN urges the
:19:51. > :19:54.overall juice that the US is meant to pay, but if it is something more
:19:55. > :19:59.than that then it would be a significant change, we have never
:20:00. > :20:02.seen Republican administrations talked down the North Atlantic
:20:03. > :20:06.Treaty Organisation in the past, that is definitely knew. Stay with
:20:07. > :20:11.us, we will play a couple of reports and come back to you, more and more
:20:12. > :20:16.questions are coming in, if you want to find Anthony Zurcher online, that

:20:19. > :20:22.to exchange information and answer questions.
:20:23. > :20:24.Let's get some more detail now on sanctuary cities.
:20:25. > :20:29.The BBC's Franz Strasser has been finding out more about them
:20:30. > :20:38.We will end the sanctuary cities, cities that refuse to cooperate with
:20:39. > :20:43.federal authorities will not receive taxpayer dollars.
:20:44. > :20:49.We're not going to be by federal policy that has us compromise values
:20:50. > :20:57.that we know are very defining for our community.
:20:58. > :21:03.What is a sanctuary city? All it means is that when a president comes
:21:04. > :21:07.in contact with local law enforcement, he will not be asked
:21:08. > :21:10.about his legal status and the local jail won't hold undocumented
:21:11. > :21:16.immigrants for deportation proceedings unless they regard them
:21:17. > :21:20.as violent criminals. Despite threats of funding cuts by
:21:21. > :21:25.Donald Trump, major US cities have already come out in favour of
:21:26. > :21:28.remaining sanctuaries. They represent a quarter of all
:21:29. > :21:33.undocumented residents in the US. And if they don't cooperate, it will
:21:34. > :21:37.be hard for the President-elect to enforce his deportation plan.
:21:38. > :21:41.I want you to know your city will stand by you and protect you every
:21:42. > :21:45.step of the way. At the root of this debate are the
:21:46. > :21:50.values of Santa Fe, they are values that have been in place since the
:21:51. > :21:55.earliest days more than 400 years ago. With 14% of our population
:21:56. > :22:01.being made up of immigrants, we can't afford to lose them back into
:22:02. > :22:06.the shadows all to see them leave our community, because we rely on
:22:07. > :22:11.them showing up day in, day out, to provide critical services to our
:22:12. > :22:15.community. My childrens are American citizens,
:22:16. > :22:20.and I am not. And that worries me a lot because we could be separated.
:22:21. > :22:24.This woman entered the country illegally with her parents as a
:22:25. > :22:28.child. An executive order by President Obama in 2012 gave the
:22:29. > :22:33.temporary legal status, a place in nursing school and a job at the
:22:34. > :22:36.hospital. Yet, I have a better job, my kids have a better
:22:37. > :22:42.quality-of-life, we have better quality-of-life. We were thinking
:22:43. > :22:49.about buying a house. Yeah, because I feel safe, I don't feel a great --
:22:50. > :22:53.afraid. That executive order, along with city century status, is under
:22:54. > :22:58.threat. My fear is that I will not feel free any more, I will not feel
:22:59. > :23:02.confident to buy house, what will happen after that? People will start
:23:03. > :23:10.working again like back then, cleaning houses, yard work,
:23:11. > :23:14.construction. Without licence. Critics of sanctuary cities say they
:23:15. > :23:19.shield criminals from being detected by federal authorities and put
:23:20. > :23:22.residents in danger. People who are here to work and work
:23:23. > :23:26.hard, I don't think they will be affected by any of the sweeping
:23:27. > :23:32.changes, it is more about the drug cartels. We have a massive drug
:23:33. > :23:35.problem in New Mexico. When it comes to the murder rate, Santa Fe says
:23:36. > :23:40.quite well against similar sized cities actively cooperating with the
:23:41. > :23:44.immigration and for Smit agency. Santa Fe's mayor says that while the
:23:45. > :23:49.city has always pursued violent criminals, it will not use local
:23:50. > :23:52.police to enforce sweeping deportation plans.
:23:53. > :23:58.We need law enforcement to focus on combating crime which can be hurtful
:23:59. > :23:59.to citizens, not being deportation agents of the federal policy seeking
:24:00. > :24:09.to destroy families and hurt people. We are looking at the Trump
:24:10. > :24:12.administration today and the many new policies it is bringing in. This
:24:13. > :24:16.is what has happened to the Dow Jones.
:24:17. > :24:19.The major business story of the day - the Dow Jones hit 20,000 today.
:24:20. > :24:24.The Dow Jones had been gaining value since the election of Donald Trump.
:24:25. > :24:27.It went from just under 18,000 when he was elected to 20,000 today.
:24:28. > :24:29.Let's get more on this from Samira Hussain.
:24:30. > :24:37.What should we see the Dow Jones as? What does it represent? It is
:24:38. > :24:43.looking at a grouping of the biggest US companies and how they are
:24:44. > :24:48.trading. Really what this signifies is it has crossed this milestone of
:24:49. > :24:52.going above 20,000 points. Does it really represent something
:24:53. > :24:55.significant? In a way, not really, it is just a nice really round
:24:56. > :25:00.number that people can wrap their heads around. It communicates a few
:25:01. > :25:04.things with regard to investor sentiment and I think you
:25:05. > :25:09.highlighted that when you mentioned the fact that we have seen markets
:25:10. > :25:12.skyrocketed since the election of Donald Trump. With a lot of the
:25:13. > :25:17.executive orders that we have seen Mr Trump signing in the last few
:25:18. > :25:21.days, it is a sign for Wall Street and investors that he will be making
:25:22. > :25:26.good on some of the promises he has major in the election campaign. Some
:25:27. > :25:32.of the things that people on Wall Street are really concerned about
:25:33. > :25:36.our regulations, and he wants to see the rollback of some of the banking
:25:37. > :25:40.regulations that have come into place and the reforms of some of
:25:41. > :25:44.America's tax codes. Based on some of the things we have seen in the
:25:45. > :25:49.first few days of his administration it seems like there could be likely.
:25:50. > :25:53.We appreciated. In the second half of the programme we will be live on
:25:54. > :25:56.the Washington newsroom and the State Department. Keep your
:25:57. > :26:05.questions coming, we will get you plenty of answers.
:26:06. > :26:11.Thank you for joining me and welcome to our latest update on a number of
:26:12. > :26:13.stories from around the world that have caught my eye
