this afternoon, donald trump was blunt. the allegations against him are totally untrue and designed to undermine him. it is all fake news. it is phoney stuff. it didn't happen and it was gotten by opponents of ours, as you know, because you reported it and so did many of the other people. it was a group of opponents that got together, sick people, and they put that crap together. so what could moscow's role has been? in shadowy work, both to promote donald trump and also gain a hold over him? here he is visiting the russian capital in 2013, for the miss universe pageant, then co—owned by mr trump. the most lurid claim is that he used the same hotel suite which president obama had stayed in for unusual acts involving sex workers, all of it allegedly recorded by russian spy cameras and microphones. i was in russia years ago with the miss universe contest, which did very well, in the moscow area. it did very, very well. and i told many people, be careful because you don't want to see yourself on television. cameras all over

the new world vision of donald trump. we have some kind of donald trump. we have some kind of idea of what is already starting. shortly after becoming president, the department of housing urban development suspended the planned reduction of mortgage insurance premium rates which had been intended to make buying a home or affordable. arguably it could be less afflu e nt affordable. arguably it could be less affluent people who will suffer. those are the people who he... they were hoping he would help. and that is a question. why do people vote against their own interests? it comes down to communication and connecting on a personal level. but what fascinates me is this new world vision. many of us me is this new world vision. many of us don't necessarily know what his world vision is going to be. aside from his tweets and his big messages that he conveys he has no legislative record that we can look at. we don't really know what he is going to do. we know he wants to get rid of islamic terrorism we know he wants to getjobs islamic terrorism we know he wants

i, donald john trump, do solemnly swear. to protect the constitution of the united states, so help me god. tens of thousands gather to watch as mr trump vows to give power to them, to the people. a musician will govan our land. from this day forward its going to be only america first. america first. there's violence before and after the inauguration. more than 200 people are arrested. others make their point more peacefully. i think there's many people who are vulnerable in our country who will suffer under this presidency. and the walk to the white house. president trump and his wife melania make their way to their new home. donald trump is now the 45th president of the united states. he was sworn in before several 100 thousand people on the steps of capitol hill in washington. in his inaugural speech he said that from this day forward, "it's going to be america first". that means buying american and hiring american. and in what he called the scourge of abandoned factories and rampant crime. this is a live shot from the whi

it says may and trump have shown that opposites do attract. it is a similar story in the daily mail, "love in at the white house". the mirror, it is the same photo. under the headline "i wanna hold your hand," the paper says "touchy—feely donald trump" held theresa may's hand, as he promised to form a special relationship. and the times carries the headline "trump blesses britain", with the president pointing to the bust of winston churchill in the oval office. the bust had been moved to another room during the obama era. a reminder of our top story. president trump has signed an executive order to limit immigration from some muslim majority countries to the united states. this includes a ban on syrian refugees until the administration is able to toughen procedures to screen them effectively. mr trump has authorised new procedures for immigrants entering the united states from certain countries, though we don't know yet what countries are on that list. and you can get in touch with me on twitter. i'm @tomdonkinbbc. hello there. the weather i

donald trump said he is very pro—uk and wa nts trump said he is very pro—uk and wants the uk to make a success of brexit. theresa may will be speaking to him about that issue. meeting donald trump strengthens her hand. if she can show that that is a special relationship with the united states who she potentially will have a good trade deal with the united states that helps. the question is really whether donald trump wants to have a trade deal that benefits the us are benefits britain and that will probably a bit of board. in terms of the discussion which is going to have it would be sitting at a trade deal as yet because they can't engage in having any pen on paper. she has expressed and remark that trade will be one of her focuses. myself and people around me have spoken about the importance of trade agreement with united kingdom. —— donald trump and those around of spoken of it. i expect to be able to talk to him about that alongside other issues will be discussing with them whenl other issues will be discussing with them when i in washington. i think free trade is important a

trump has been very careful —— trump has to be very careful —— trump has to be very careful about raising expectations unnaturally careful about raising expectations unnatu rally and impossibly. careful about raising expectations unnaturally and impossibly. the notion that he could in four or eight years eradicate islamic terrorism is, ithink, pie in eight years eradicate islamic terrorism is, i think, pie in the sky, and it is a phrase that will come back to haunt him. you have been an observer of inaugurations and presidents, you've been in washington for years off and on, and i wonder what you make of this moment. do we know what the map is even for the next few months, as far as this president is concerned? no, we don't. as i've said before, trump isa we don't. as i've said before, trump is a mystery to be revealed. so far, we have had slogans like america first and make america great again, we have had bits and pieces of policy popping up he ran there, including inauguration speech, we have had to drive a coach and horses through american foreign policy over the eu and nato, he has i

the trump administration or do you think this was a 1-off? this is the new normal, i think we can say that. that remark about holding the press accountable, calling people out, he called out one particular reported today about suggestions that the statue of martin luther king had been removed from the white house. that was not the case but they are going to take people on individually, if necessary, through these briefings. mr spicer looked as if he were a man who had been told what to say by his boss knowing full well well that that boss was watching every second of his remarks. this was the sort of use, it appears, that donald trump is going to make of his chief press spokesman. and that boss, if you would, briefly, donald trump, he appears to be genuinely upset by the scale of a protest against him and by the media reporting that there we re by the media reporting that there were fewer people at his inauguration. absolutely. size matters to donald trump, as they say, and clearly he is thin—skinned on this particular issue. with all this

any sign of having taken trump, who doesn't show any sign of having ta ken any trump, who doesn't show any sign of having taken any advice from the american russia specialists who are covered in scottish you from their dealings with putin in the past.|j am assuming there will be nervousness from his aides around that phone call, but also in eastern european countries. exactly. as i say, the eastern europeans feel there is a danger of a deal being done over their heads. some people speak about the yalta agreement, the 19a5 deal between stalin, churchill and roosevelt, where eastern europe got pa rcelled up and roosevelt, where eastern europe got parcelled up between east and west. so the ukrainians, the georgians, poles, latvians and lithuanians and the swedes and the finns as well are also worrying that there is going to be a deal where something will be done on european security in exchange for russian help on other things. the great misapprehension that mr trump is labouring under is that putin needs help against islamic state. and of course, what we have been seeing in syria and ira

asset is obsolete, but theresa may says that donald trump values nato. we have a lot to watch will stop it should be an interesting and remarkable visit. on trade, a simple reality check is that it will not be done within 90 days because nothing can be done within 90 days. we're still members of the european union. we have not even begun the process of leaving. and that will take more than two yea rs, by and that will take more than two years, by which time there will be another congress which may be republican—dominated, it might not be. and congress will have a view. the idea that something magical will happen on trade by friday, no matter the headlines, it's just happen on trade by friday, no matter the headlines, it'sjust not happen on trade by friday, no matter the headlines, it's just not true, is it? no. but beginning that conversation is important for both donald trump and theresa may. this morning she said "if i have a special relationship with donald trumpi special relationship with donald trump i can exercise influence". and this reflect a l

the reason they were in such a desperate rush is because they knew donald trump, but notjust donald trump, also hillary clinton, on the campaign trail basically said they would walk back from the transpacific partnership, a trade deal between the usa and asia. what you're hearing here is this talk of trying to get a better deal for america, something donald trump has made very clear, that he wants to be tougher on the country's trading partners, but what that means in practice is going to be crucial. does it mean, for example, he will impose tariffs, as he has threatened in some instances, against china and mexico? there could be affected on global trade, what will that be? and what will that be for the global —— mean for the global economy? there isa mean for the global economy? there is a huge rethinking about whether or not global trade is good or not, and looking last week in davos, you had the chinese leader advancing the case for globalisation, but here in the usa cn, perhaps it is not so good and we want to focus on the american market. michelle in new york, thank you so much.

donald trump has also threatened to disregard or scrap the nuclear deal. what is your organisation plan to do about this? many people say in response to what donald trump is proposing to get organised and to combat and what can you do in real terms, though? organised and to combat and what can you do in realterms, though? there isa you do in realterms, though? there is a lot to be done and there is much that is being done right now. there are several different avenues. we are looking at various legal challenges to this together with other organisations that are coming forward with lawsuits against the government on this. there are also challenges that can be mustered through congress. whether it is to be filed various elements are com pletely be filed various elements are completely overall by a passing laws that go above the executive order. there are many different ways to challenge this and right now we see a tremendous amount of energy and desire to do so. people are very committed to make sure that this does not become the new america. the swedish pho

donald trump's new executive toy. his first ride today on air force one, that potent symbol of us presidential power. but it was the cancelled travel plans of the mexican president that were at the centre of a diplomatic storm. his plane will stay grounded after a summit between the two leaders scheduled for washington next week was abruptly called off. this mexican stand—off is over the great totem of the trump presidency, the wall he's determined, notjust to build along the border, but also to get mexico to pay for. but in an angry speech last night, the country's president, enrique pena nieto, said he wouldn't foot the bill. so, shortly before leaving the oval office this morning, donald trump decided to conduct his diplomacy by tweet. by the time he spoke in philadelphia, the mexicans had announced the summit was off, and that earned a public scolding from president trump. the president of mexico and myself have agreed to cancel our planned meeting scheduled for next week. unless mexico is going to treat the uni

we lure them with money and donald trump was lord with money and donald trump was lord with money and donald trump was lord with money doing the miss universe pageant. we try to change their ideology, which donald trump now has and espouses the ideology of russia, we try to coerce or co—opt them through blackmail or preferably their corporation and then we play with their ego. donald trump is an easily manipulated person. he fits into the category quite well and for some bizarre reason he will not say one word against vladimir putin but he will disparage the current administration and any americans operating in the intelligence community. that would bring suspicion. but these are unsubstantiated allegations, this is not a full intelligence briefing as a result of work by the fbi and cia, this is what conducted and paid for bya this is what conducted and paid for by a member of the opposition, by the democratic party. but you are suggesting you firmly believe he is some sort of manchurian candidate. donald trump practically ran as the manchurian candidate. he seems to ta ke manchuria

donald trump offers usa i believe that donald trump offers us a clear pathway in dealing with serious issues of islamic extremism. the uk as well are familiar with the compromises we have made the extremist, and we have two stop the bloodshed that is happening, from 0rlando, bloodshed that is happening, from orlando, to london, to brussels. and so, asa orlando, to london, to brussels. and so, as a muslim, i believe that we have to handle this issue very clearly. as a woman i did not go to the women's march today. i was among those folks who stood at the inauguration, because i didn't believe that the women's march was for women. it was a march for women who are against donald trump, just as you guessed just spoke about. and so as you guessed just spoke about. and so what i want to do is stand for justice, and for peace, and for secular justice, and for peace, and for secular governance, justice, and for peace, and for secular governance, and that is very much why i wanted to vote for a change from the eight years that we have had of the 0bama administration. you mention the interview

will he make this transition from candidate trump to president trump? how important is it that he does that? it is not clear. he may stay the same and is able to be a successful president, even in that mould. a fully republican congress is likely to send him tax reform, some form of immigration reform, some reform or change to obamacare, perhaps an infrastructure bill, and maybe more. if he signs his name on the bills, he will look like a productive president. if his approval ratings stay low and they are historically low for an incoming president, will congress look at those numbers, and if he asks them for things they don't want to give him, they might think twice about it? perhaps, but congress has wanted to do most of the things ijust mentioned for more than a decade. they have their own motives and incentives to get these things past, independent of the president was mac popularity or not. you want to call him on sam, uninformed and unhinged. have you changed mine? we hope he can grow into the moment and position. -- changed your mind. after the ta

i am the blow for the trump administration. iam not the blow for the trump administration. i am not convinced they expected this kind of reaction. they were caught off—guard by that little bit and even on friday night when they first announced the signature of this executive order, they were not ready to explain what it meant and so they roll out of this from just a communications standpoint has not been great for this white house, but as you played earlier, president trump says and did so to us in the oval office yesterday that he is pleased at how it has gone and this is the right thing to do. thank you. the us military says a raid against al qaeda in yemen, authorised by president trump, has killed at least fourteen militants and an american serviceman. the raid targeted the houses of three tribal chiefs linked to al-qaeda in al baida province. local sources say at least a dozen civilians were also killed. we will find out how the latest news from america plays out in tomorrow's newspaper front pages at 10:30pm and 11:30pm. 0ur guestsjoining me tonight are jacqui franc

donald] trump and the first lady of the united states. he beamed as he arrived at galas across washington, clasping the hand of his wife and first lady. inaugural balls are part of the choreography of this historic day. and mr trump invited supporters from across the country. well, we did it. cheering. we began this journey, and they said we — we and me — we didn't have a chance, but we knew we were going to win. and we won. # i did it my way #. as he shuffled around the floor, word spread that he had already made his first executive move... this is an executive order minimising the economic burden of the patient protection and affordable care act. an action that will help repeal obamacare, his predecessor's signature health care law. across the country, gatherings of a more hostile nature sprung up from coast to coast. in washington, over 200 people were arrested after a handful of small anti—trump rallies turned violent. in chicago, hundreds peacefully voiced their concerns at donald trump's agenda, and in seattle, they marched th

right now, seeing what president trump is doing, ido seeing what president trump is doing, i do not think those values are shared. given that he is being ill offers a week is this where you thought we would be? -- he has been in office a week. i think it is worse than we thought it would be. we didn't have high expectations. the speed with which he has acted, the carelessness and recklessness with which he has acted is deeply worrying. the actions that he has taken, supposedly to keep the united states safe, is actually more likely to whip up the kind of narrative that precisely set the west on a collision course with islam. they're ple nty of collision course with islam. they're plenty of people who would like that being the narrative. i don't get should be the narrative, but that is what he is pursuing by the actions he has taken, and it is dangerous. aren't these the actions who is of somebody who is learning very fast ina new somebody who is learning very fast in a newjob. no, i think they are the actions of a racist bigot and we have to stand up to bullies and that is what the uk sho

president—elect trump from all positions in the trump from all positions in the trump organisation. further in addition his daughter will have no further involvement or management authority with the trump organisation. as she and gerard move to dc, they will be concentrating on their new homes. the president—elect has disposed of his invest. s. as a result the trust will have two types of assets. first cash, cash equivalents and some positions in a portfolio. second, the trust is going to hold his preexisting assets that people are familiar. trump owned golf clubs, resorts, hotels, rights to royalties from licences. things like trump tower, all his other business interests will be in the trust. through instructions in the trust. through instructions in the trust. through instructions in the trust agreement, donald trump ordered all pending deems be determinated. . this impacted more than 30 deals. as you can imagine, that caused an immediate financial loss of millions of dollarings. s for donald trump and don and eric. the agreement imposes severe restrictions on new deals. no new

brexit mean to brexit, trump means trump. he is committed to populist ideals that deviate from the republican orthodoxy. it sounded like a campaign speech to me than one of those inaugural speeches where people go on about the very big picture and do not mention the themes of the campaign that were divisive. the very big picture, staying to the themes of the themes of the campaign with populism, he is mr brexit, that is what he wants. he wa nts to mr brexit, that is what he wants. he wants to wrest control from the elites with respect to trade, immigration, infrastructure, spending, and others. you made the point he is not an ordinary republican in any way. how important is this relationship with republicans and congress? given the house of representatives is up in two years. house of representatives is up in two yea rs. every house of representatives is up in two years. every member of the house who is a republican will say, how will the school for me in two years? how close should i be to the trump presidency? an interestin

after president trump's inauguration. in vienna, bethany bell spoke to some of those who have come out in support of the women's march. in vienna, the marchers are out as well, as they have been across europe. i am here with catherine, an american who has been in vienna for 17 years. why did you come out today? because i have three children, this is my youngest, four months old, and the thought that a child anywhere would feel less because of statements made by those in power makes me heartsick. what is your strongest message today? women's rights. continuing reproductive rights. and climate change, that science is real. that was one of the biggest messages today that i supported. it's not just women out on the streets today, it is men as well. where are you from? born in vienna in austria, but i lived the last 30 years in los angeles. very important for me to be here to show solidarity, to stand behind women's rights and everything else this march is for. also here today, why did you want to come out today? i was not thr

because it was notjust about donald trump. his election perhaps was the straw that broke the camel's back. 2016 was a very difficult year. we had brexit, we had jo cox's stabbing, aleppo, so many difficult global occurrences, that we felt we wanted to come together in solidarity and move forward in a positive way. so what is the message, then, overall that you were trying to send? because obviously lots of different groups of people chose to turn up for their own reasons? very much so. i think what we wanted is to get people interested again in politics, involved in politics from the grassroots, who wanted to send out the message that you do matter, you can make a difference, get involved. but we also wanted to stand in solidarity together for across—the—board, religious groups coming together, different... just different causes coming together to fight for unity, human rights, dignity and also the safety of the planet. what difference will it really make, though? he hasjust begun his presidency in the usa, he has at least

president trump says that's one of his top priorities. predictably, we have already had calls from baghdad for the government there to respond. the imps when shall schar cleric has said that americans should now have to leave iraq. there are about 5000 us troops on the ground there, playing a very important role, largely assisting and advising the iraqis in this battle against bias. at this stage, we don't know what action the iraqi government might be willing to take, but it will face domestic pressure on this. for both countries, there's a lot at stake. for individual iraqis, they are already falling victim to these policies. we spoke to a man who should been beginning a new life this weekend in the us, and instead he was turned around here at cairo. he said he had put his life on the line, and after all of that, donald trump had destroyed his dreams. thank you. a us special forces raid against al-qaeda in yemen, authorised by president trump, has killed at least 14 militants and one us serviceman. the raid targeted the houses of three

should president trump's state that it go ahead? she was tight—lipped but downing street be a populist gesture to scrap the invitation and i don't intend to do so —— has made it clear. i think it is right that i should make the position very clear on the views that i have on the proposed state visit by president trump, which is that it should be postponed and we should make that position very clear. and in view of the number of people who have come out in the last two days, a substantial number of the british public absolutely agree with me. but this former party leader defended donald trump. what has happened here, the countries upon which trump has put a temporary travel ban while they work out how to put extreme vetting in place, that list was drawn up by the 0bama administration. what was a diplomatic success now looks like a political difficulty, getting close to the new us administration could be good for the post brexit economy but not necessarily for theresa may's domestic popularity. 0ur assistant political editor, no

donald trump has also threatened to disregard or scrap the nuclear deal. what is your organisation planning to do about this? a lot of people say in response to what donald trump is proposing to get organised and to combat it, what can you do in real terms? there is plenty to be done and plenty that is being done right now. there are several avenues. we are looking at various legal challenges with other organisations that are putting forward lawsuits against the government on this. there's also challenges that can be mustered through congress. whether it is to defund various elements of this or to completely overrule it by passing laws that can go above the president's executive order. there are many ways to challenge this and i think right now we see a tremendous amount of energy and desire to do so. people are very committed to make sure this does not become the new america. we are getting reports a boat has gone missing in malaysia. it was heading for an island popular with tourists. rescue teams were deployed when it arrived and bad weather is hamperin

president trump takes office as the most unpopular new president ever. today's march, he faces up to that fact. katty kay, bbc news, washington. we spoke with david willis about his first day. donald trump has gone on the attack on day one, the first full day of his presidency, blaming basically the dishonest media for any misunderstanding that might have occurred, and that sentiment was echoed by a very unusual press conference, it wasn't really a press conference, it wasn't really a press conference, it was a long statement from the white house spokesman, sean spicer, this evening, in which he rallied against the media, as donald trump had earlier, saying that this new administration would hold the media accountable, as he put it, for things like false reporting and selling dissent and also things like that. mr sean spicer in a very competent mood, reading from a statement which, as i say, very much echoed donald trump's remarks from the cia earlier, but not taking any questions and basicallyjust turning on his foot and marching out at the end. and dav

donald trump, our president, doesn't get it. this is wrong and we're going to fight it, right here on the streets, we're going to fight it in court and we're going to fight it every place and in every corner of america. this is not who we are. it's just a day since donald trump ended his first frenetic week by fulfilling his promise to impose tough new immigration rules aimed at predominantly muslim countries. rules he says that will keep america safe from terrorism. i am establishing new vetting measures to keep radical islamic terrorists out of the united states of america. we don't want ‘em here. people from libya, sudan, somalia, yemen, syria, iraq and iran cannot enter the us for 90 days, even if they have a valid visa. all refugees will be kept out for 120 days with the annual limit of around 100,000 halved in future. syrian refugees will be barred from america indefinitely. this iraqi—born software engineer has been advised to stay put. i had trips planned for yesterday and next week that i was going to go to africa f

donald trump ozma —— donald trump ozma victory was the second. really what today is about though is creating a show of unity. at least the three of these leaders it's an election year. marine le pen is hoping to become the next leader in france. denmark have an election and also germany. these leaders have a lot in common. they tend to use pretty fierce anti—islamic rhetoric. they are very much opposed to angela merkel‘s fiji policy which has been described today as catastrophic. they do however share some commonality. —— angela merkel‘s refugee policy. there is much that divides them, but there was a lot that brings them together. what is shared is a growing support amongst ordinary men and women who are concerned about the migrant crisis and feel disillusioned and let down by the political mainstream. there area by the political mainstream. there are a great deal of alarms through those political establishments, certainly with the german public and there were big protests going on last night and today over this meeting from which memb

president trump takes office as the most unpopular new president ever. today's march, he faces up to that fact. katty kay, bbc news, washington. the marches may have sparked widespread support across the us and worldwide, but let's hear now from a supporter of donald trump who feels differently. judy alexander is a county employee from croswell in michigan. thanks very much indeed forjoining us. thanks very much indeed forjoining us. those marches, you could dispute the figures of the inauguration, there is no doubt there are a lot of people taking part in marches around the world. yes, i saw that today. ..

mr trump is what we might call a known unknown. he will do unpredictable things and abandon know position. he will learn as he goes along and what we have to remember is that our security and that europe depends on the atlantic alliance. does my right honourable friend agree that there must be no question of our refuse to go welcome him to these shores in the hope of setting him along the right path as soon as setting him along the right path as soon as possible to our mutual benefit? well, my right honourable friend is entirely right in the sense that the prime minister, succeeded the other day in getting her message across about the north atla ntic her message across about the north atlantic alliance and about nato and president trump affirmed very strongly his commitment to that alliance. it is vital for our security, particularly the article 5 guarantee and the new president is, i think, very much in the right place on that and it is totally right, he said so. it is totally right, he said so. it is totally right, of course, tha

not president trump, one might think. one of the concerns about the middle east under trump is that his america first approach indicates a lack of interest in pursuing a multilateral agenda for solving the myriad of problems the. america is not going to ask for permission in the middle east and what we have heard is that his singular deep focus will be on eradicating terrorism and extremism which is a hard military security orientated approach. the reality is that the middle east, no matter where, confronts challenges about broader issues of development and governance and the military approach alone will not address those. he is quickly going to find as past presidents have that if you try to go it alone you are likely to stir up go it alone you are likely to stir up more problems than you solve. go it alone you are likely to stir up more problems than you solvem terms of global influence, this is perhaps nowhere on mr trump was much agenda, but the usa, money that goes to projects that are deemed to be good around the wo

a new creation — the donald trump burger. like the man himself, it's larger—than—life, and for some, difficult to swallow. it's a symbol of the high hopes — the very high hopes — russia has for trump, and its appetite for a closer relationship. steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. an update now on an incident in australia. at least one person has died and several peole have been injured after a car hit pedestrians in the australian city of melbourne. officials say several people were struck by a vehicle in the centre of the city. what are you doing on this? we are studying eyewitness reports suggesting a similar sequence of events. a vehicle coming up on the sidewalk and collision with objects and people as it carried on its path. it started along the central flinders station in the centre of melbourne along the popular pedestrian shopping area. we know the driver has been stopped and arrested. as you said, one person has died, dozens of treated for injuries. it is a developing scene. some people talking about a sense o

mr trump is having none of it, neither is the kremlin. only a handful of people had this information. the president—elect is clear who he thinks leaked it. i think it was disgraceful, disgraceful, that the intelligence agencies allowed any information that turned out to be so false and fake, out. i think it is a disgrace. and i say that, and i say that, and that is something that nazi germany would have done and did do. i think it is a disgrace. ian pannell from the bbc news. bbc news, that is another beauty. if they come back with any kind of conclusion that any of it stands up, if any of it is true, will you consider your position? there is nothing they can come back with. this is related to the hacking scandal. the kremlin is accused of a cyber attack on the democrats and denies the hacking attack. until now donald trump has refused to single out russia for blame. as far as hacking i think it was russia and i also think we were hacked by other countries, and other people. even so, mr trump plans to rebuild relations with russia. if p

it isa coverage is and how trump responds. it is a challenge, butjust looking at those pictures, americans are being asked, do you believe what the white house press spokesman says what you can see with your own eyes, and this will not play very well because the facts are against the white house line. i think you have to look at the context. people are doubting the press partly because of the direct attacks against the press but also because of false coverage, and that is true with the dossier. in the us there was the rolling stones and its rape case, that was a false story, so there is a history of improper reporting by the press and what is being selected. for donald trump many americans have an issue with his tweets. there are so much content out there that people are talking about that he is providing, and we have to be selective in what we choose to debate on. as a working mum, i only have so much space to talk and consider things, and i wanted to be about the economy, change, immigration. i don't care about size of crowd

donald trump is however holding firm and ina donald trump is however holding firm and in a tweet this morning he says countries needed strong borders and extreme betting, now. the. we did support from the leader of the dutch freedom party, saying it is the only way to stay safe and free. the countries included in the trump order are reeling. iran's foreign minister asked the swiss ambassador to convey that it was against human rights conventions. and in iraq and american ally there is confusion at this kurdish family was prevented from boarding a flight to the states. as someone signs effective immediately, what does this mean? it is like saddam hussein's decisions. president trump seemed very common at about the decision when signing it yesterday that the ink is barely dry and it is already causing a furious debate in america, and around the mould. that world. the northern ireland secretary has criticised the way inquiries are being conducted into the troubles. james brokenshire said the current re—investigations into the conflict were "disproportionately" focused on the police and

this has already been signalled by mr trump himself. he said on the campaign trail, and you implied this, mexico will pay for the wall. now he says initially the mexican taxpayer might have to stump up mexican taxpayer might have to stump up the cost but somehow america will carry that cost so it might not be in the form of a payment. he's implying there will be some kind of border tax levied on the southern border tax levied on the southern border to mexico's disadvantage and that money might be set off against the cost of building the wall. sounds an awful lot like flimflam. american taxpayers are going to pay for this wall assuming it gets built. what do you make of the plans for deportations? barack obama already deported millions, and paul ryan says it won't apply to the so—called dreamers, the people who came to the us illegally as children, they don't have to worry, the focus will be on deporting criminals. but that definition, people who are criminal aliens prioritised for removal, this order vastly expands that definition, do

we come not to appeal to donald trump. because he's made it clear what his policies are, and what his nominations are. we come to say to the democrats in the senate and in the house, and then to the moderate republicans, to get some backbone. get some guts. and, in a separate development, broadway starjennifer holliday said she is pulling out of a concert celebrating the inauguration, this after her gay and lesbian fans described the forthcoming performance as a betrayal. rehearsals for the inauguration are in full swing, but few big names have agreed to perform for mr trump, and friday's ceremony looks to be dominated by military bands, rather than a—listers. earlier, i asked andra gillespie, a political scientist at atlanta's emory university, who lives in the district that john lewis represents, whether mr trump's comments about the congressman are accurate. i'm very proud to havejohn lewis as my representative. he is a living legend of the civil rights movement. i've gotten a chance to meet him, he is a lovely person

yesterday we saw a donald trump defending a donald trump as opposed to defending the rights of americans. it will be interesting to talk to a lot of donald trump supporters on the back of that press conference, asking is this the president that can unite your country on the back of a divisive election? saying this news conference was about donald trump, it wasn't setting out an agenda, he did talk generally about manufacturing and the car stories we have talked about but this was very much about him and we know how he is going to divest his business interests from the presidency. but everytime he says anything and every time he does anything and every time he tweets something, the markets react. what have we got? stocks dragged down by trump comments. some are dragged down, some are still going up, there's a lot of optimism. the dowjones going up, there's a lot of optimism. the dow jones opened going up, there's a lot of optimism. the dowjones opened up 0.5%, let's not forget that, but certain sectors are feeling the pressure. u nfortu nately, are feeling the pressure. unfortunately, one

a while keeping a suitable distance from mr trump. a huge challenge the prime minister will have to get used to. in a moment, we'll be speaking to our north america editor jon sopel in washington, but first, eleanor garnier is here. how much detail do we have on how to teach citizens might be affected? this is not an exemption for the uk, this is a clarification of the rules and ina this is a clarification of the rules and in a sign of how difficult it has been to unpick everything, conversations have them at the highest possible level all day. just to clarify, if you are a british citizen who happens to be travelling to the us from iraq, you will not be subject to the ban. if you are a dual national and you travel to america, you will not be subject to the ban though you may face extra checks. as the foreign office understands it, it is only people who are nationals of those seven named countries currently subject to a band. most hush macro mo farah fundamentally disagrees with what he calls a divisive and discriminatory policy. ther

theresa may has to tell a difficult line with donald trump because she wa nts a line with donald trump because she wants a trading relationship with the us and britain leaves the european union, but there will be those who say that actually when there are issues like this where britain is completely opposed to an american course of action that she should speak more loudly and express her opposition. susannah, thanks. the northern ireland secretary, james brokenshire, says the system for re—investigating killings during the troubles isn't working. mr brokenshire has told the sunday telegraph that the process focuses disproportionately on killings by the police and the army — and he stressed that this posed a danger of re—writing the past. 0ur ireland correspondent sara girvin said this would continue to be a controversial subject. this issue of how to deal with the past of northern ireland has always been controversial. at the moment police are investigating all deaths that took place during northern ireland's troubles. 3500 people were killed between 1969 and 1998. 302 of those w

mr trump said to ruijude —— campaign rhetoric. mr trump said to rui jude —— rudy campaign rhetoric. mr trump said to ruijude —— rudy giuliani, get yourself a panel of lawyers, find yourself a panel of lawyers, find yourself accommodation of words to make this legal. the motivation is quite clear. well, i don't know if thatis quite clear. well, i don't know if that is actually, the motivation is clear as to what is actually done. rudy giuliani said that when this first issue came up, that was the discussion. but i don't think you said when that was an if it was when it first came up, that was over a year ago. so this does not apply to the muslim world in general, it applies to seven countries. and in terms of whether people from those countries had conducted past attacks, that is not the point of the security measures that are taking in immigration. it is meant to prevent foreign fighters in a new environment, one that didn't exist ten yea rs environment, one that didn't exist ten years ago, being infiltrated into the us, much as they have been infiltrated into europe. and isis's

donald trump. i don't want to change too much. i can be the most presidential person ever, other than possibly the great abe lincoln, all right? but i can be the most presidential person. he's still obsessed with the crowd size at his inauguration. a sea of love. but in a new interview with fox news, he turned his attention to the group calling itself "islamic state," saying its fighters were sick and demented. the people that we're going against, they don't wear uniforms, they're sneaky, dirty rats. and they blow people up in a shopping centre. and they blow people up in a church. these are bad people. the presidency is travelling at a hurtling pace. the late—breaking news that he's now calling for a 20% tax on mexican imports to pay for the wall. donald trump is clearly revelling in his seat of power, whether it's in the oval office or at 30,000 feet. beautiful. great plane. nick bryant, bbc news, washington. britain's prime minister theresa may has arrived in america at the start of a trip whi

but before all that, can president trump do this? well, yes. i mean, there are a lot of questions here. of course, ultimately, what is going to happen with this executive order? it does appear that there are going to be legal challenges. there were more advanced today, and that ultimately the fate of that very controversial move to basically prohibit the arrival into the united states of refugees, syrian refugees, indefinitely, and other refugees for several months, could end up going all the way to the united states supreme court. or write, david. we will see very soon, i think —— or write. and in the past few hours, senior democratic politicians have gathered at a rally outside the supreme court. house minority leader nancy pelosi and senate leader chuck schumer called mr trump's executive order un—american. all of us take an oath of office to protect and defend the constitution of the united states. what the president has done is not in the interest of security. it is reckless. it is reckless and rash. america, for its history, has bee

that is donald trump's pick, the alabama senator. the democrats have also been thwarting a couple of appointments, oi’ thwarting a couple of appointments, or at least delaying a couple of appointments, that donald trump wa nts to appointments, that donald trump wants to see? this was a surprise move. they have walked out of scheduled votes for tom price, the health and human services secretary, the treasury secretary. if all of the treasury secretary. if all of the democrats walk out and they are not in the committee hearings when they were going to vote on confirmation to advise is... advance that, the votes can't take place. they need at least one democrat there to have a vote. the democrats have realise they have the power to slow things down. the objection, as far as price goes, is that there has not been enough investigation into some stock—trading he did companies getting preferred access to trading. for the treasury secretary, they are interested in this company that he was involved in that was foreclosing on homes and whe
