11:00 am
trying to deal with donald trump and so i think that you know a large part of the political blame goes towards the republican party who have essentially emboldened donald trump by not calling out his reese's and his sexism his homophobia islam a phobia and mythology and so i think that a lot of the blame lies there as well. they've been gracious and customs enforcement raids have reportedly begun double trump announced that be a crackdown on undocumented workers intensity this weekend religious leaders in houston texas pledged to provide sanctuary for those facing deportation and it's part of donald trump's larger program to discourage central american migrants from traveling to the u.s. i have a lot of respect for our ice officers they're loyal they're compassionate but they have a job to do and it's a tough one and made a lot tougher when a lot of people in congress throw the vitriol at them that they are just for doing their job and enforcing the law as congress put it but what's going on why is the president telegraphing a big new effort to to deport will look if we don't have interior enforcement we
11:01 am
don't have deterrents then people think they can get by that 1st line just as you described earlier and they're done it's over well it isn't over and over a 1000000 people in this country have who are here illegally have gone through extensive due process have removal orders and have not left that how many of those people are going to how many people are you going to forcefully well we'll we'll see we'll see how many rolls on with and it's shows how far we've fallen that it's even news that ice is doing its job this is their job every day is and well it will in fact the numbers are far fewer. under you are fewer people being deported oh that's right president trump and under president obama that's correct ok let's find out more and what's been happening with gabriel is on in washington d.c. so gabriel how these ice raids materialize have been advertised by trump.
11:02 am
we don't think so at least there's no evidence of this as we've been following it since the early hours of sunday morning up until it's a little past 10 pm here on the east coast to us now and there's no evidence of any widespread immigration and customs enforcement raids an immigration immigrant communities in the u.s. in these 8 to 10 cities the trump identified that said that there would be raids happening los angeles chicago new york baltimore miami just to name a few so if they are happening we don't have any video of it and ice has not released any sort of statement about it at all so there's seems that it's not happening in a widespread manner like president trump and ice was saying that it was going to happen but i can tell you that even with that no evidence of this happening it still has left a chilling effect throughout immigrant communities throughout the united states today many migrant families staying away from their house or staying in their house
11:03 am
we heard of places in for example new york city where a park in suburban new york city that normally has dozens of migrant families out on the weekends saw nothing it was like deserted because people just don't want to be outside as much so it's had a real chilling effect on the migrant community throughout the country and that's remember that these more than 3000 people that were targeted with remove all orders roughly 3000 families they weren't necessarily criminals by any stretch of imagination some of them just dismissed court appearances and so that's why they were had removal orders but clearly lots of people were very worried about this but no evidence of these mass rape immigration raids that we were expecting so gay male if if there is that of these massive arrests as was proclaimed by trump why such a huge announcement about it. yeah i mean that's the big question it's very unusual for the u.s. government to do this it's unusual of course. for trump to do this it's
11:04 am
not normal policy i mean under previous presidents immigration custom of foresman would deport people and remove removal orders but they never come out and make a big. show about it like they've done now it's one of a couple things it's either trumps way of trying to scare the immigrant community as a deterrent for mostly central american immigrants maybe not to come to the united states that could be one it could be trump just playing to his base of america 1st base immigrant supporters that he has i mean he campaigned on that during 2016 and he won the presidency so he might be working towards that to reach revitalizing that base that believes in this or these raids could go on in in tomorrow monday tuesday who knows so they might just be temporarily on hold we just don't know but we do know that it just has had this chilling effect on the immigrant community
11:05 am
people just worried and quite frankly families that are scared even if they don't have a remove all order there was widespread fear that immigrant families or undocumented people in the u.s. could be swept away as part of a bigger deportation effort so have to keep a close eye on that to see if it really does happen indeed you know whatever their reason as always controversial and divisive thank you very much. and washington. we have plenty more ahead on this news hour including south africa's government takes an aim at gang violence on the streets of cape town. and we'll go to india's tower of trash that will soon be taller than. on top of the world england finally have their hands on the cricket world cup peter will have all the action and sports.
11:06 am
tens of thousands of people were back on the streets of hong kong to protest against what they say is beijing's growing political influence in the city's affairs but what started as a peaceful march in the suburb of shotton ended in violence as right police charged towards demonstrators in a shopping center dog that has this report from hong kong. after bringing central hong kong to a standstill on previous said days protesters are taking their fight to the suburbs . and government leaders are struggling to climb down on the resistance movement that is largely leaderless most of the protesters here are young people who tell us they are disillusioned about hong kong's future. protesters set up barricades in the center of shoutin and riot police arrived from different directions trying
11:07 am
to close off access routes. the situation is tense protesters remain defiant and the patience of police is wearing thin. by 8 pm the police sent out a warning. they are ready to charge but here you can see the pacific rim even begin to disrespect to the moment. these people you know here. thing. you know the feeling in the bed. with me because in fact even leaving me any more you want to make it seem some of the protesters retreated to a nearby and more complex the police went after them and that's when the situation became even more violent i
11:08 am
like so many protests here this march is meant to be a peaceful one most. people do not trust the. chinese and they did. go. for the past 5 weeks these have become familiar scenes in hong kong tens of thousands of protesters showed up here today surprising even the moments organizers and president did for a suburban area like shots and the message is quite clear to caroline's government enough is enough the controversy over the proposed law to extradite suspects to stand trial in china sparked large scale protests last month and now demands have broadened protesters want reassurances that their fundamental freedoms are protected britain returned hong kong to chinese rule in 1997 the so-called one
11:09 am
country 2 systems and over agreement guaranteed the people of hong kong freedom is not widely available in mainland china. but people here tell as those freedoms are being eroded by creeping or story tyrion ism from beijing it remains to be seen what sort of concessions chief executive caroline can offer that will be enough to pacify young people here for now protesters vow they will continue to push back until they. achieve meaningful political reforms. dog and i'll just 0 hong kong. and earlier my colleague barbara sara spoke with joshua wong a leading hong kong pro-democracy activist it was jailed for his role in the movement he says the protests will continue until their demands are met. more than $100.00 and people get on the street again government through withdrawal and
11:10 am
terminated their extradition bail and in the long term it's a must to apply free election in hong kong especially when one country 2 system eroded to be one country one in a hostile the government has not rift jodha bill yet in fact abused exists in the legislative program of cost the leader of hong call provide a misleading narrative claimed that the bill is set but when we check on the largest of the program of the parliament of hong kong the bill is due exis and can be easily reactivated again in the next trial that's why movements do continue and we urge government to terminate it to be you know free election is don't wait out especially half of this it's off the legislative council not democratically elected the leader of hong kong is selected by beijing instead of elected by hong kong people that's why we continue our strike and hong kong people it's just freedom and
11:11 am
democracy and if you seen any indication from authorities that they are taking you seriously that they are perhaps thinking of some concessions to give the demonstrators they claim that they take seriously with using baten attack on me and use pepper stray shoot on me and that's what i experience 7 hours ago in sight the shopping mall if peaceful demonstration is used so no one had to take race that might be prosecuted and jailed especially as the one had the job for 3 times. unfortunately hong kong to offset a minister of population which is 25 percent of hong kong citizen talk to district already but governments do and. that's why. to continue not only is wrong to government headquarters but also a protest rally happened in different districts including the district in the new
