hello, i'm christian fraser. donald trump has arrived in washington ahead of his inauguration on monday. at a fundraiser tonight in virginia, there is a dinner and firework display for the invited guests, in one of several events scheduled before he takes the oath on monday. but it will all look very different to how it was planned. the temperatures here are due to plummet in the next 2a hours. there is frantic work underway to move the inauguration indoors, with the set now being built in the capitol rotunda. meanwhile, thousands of anti—trump demonstrators have been marching through washington to protest against the policies of this incoming administration. organisers had expected 50,000 people. about 5,000 turned up.

the people's march — it was previously known as the women's march — is much smaller than it was in 2017 when trump first came to power. but according to those who attended, it is now a much more diverse group. it's a nice reminder that, even though we didn't have the numbers in november, that we are not alone. and we shouldn't give up andjust are not alone. and we shouldn't give up and just kind of role in our backs. in two years we can make some more change. i think that we should come out here _ think that we should come out here and — think that we should come out here and voice our concerns, like, _ here and voice our concerns, like. why— here and voice our concerns, like, why do you want people to id like, why do you want people to go back— like, why do you want people to go back home? because you think they doh't— go back home? because you think they don't belong here? america was built— they don't belong here? america was built upon immigrants. am i wrong? — was built upon immigrants. am i wrong? no, but it'sjust because, like, we should have a say in _ because, like, we should have a say in that, _ because, like, we should have a say in that, because we can't just— say in that, because we can't just deport people just because they feel a greater belong here _ the view there of some of those marching today. 0ur north america correspondent john sudworth was watching. well, they are calling this the

people's protest, a broad coalition of groups here on the streets of washington to protest against what they see as donald trump's threat to civil rights, socialjustice, civil rights, social justice, to civil rights, socialjustice, to women's rights, to the protection of minorities and immigrants. america is, few people can doubt now, deeply divided country on the brink of radical change. that is what donald trump promised before his election, it's why his supporters voted for him, and they will be hoping that this time around he is far more prepared to push his agenda through. for his opponents here on the streets, of course, that is precisely what they fear. the decision to bring the inauguration indoors because of the arctic weather forecast is posing some challenges, and when you think back to the scenes of violence that greeted the defeat in 2020, so far these protests have been very, very peaceful. what a

difference four years makes. let me show you again the picture we received in the last hour from dulles international. not very well lit, but you will make out donald trump there descending the steps, along with melania and his youngest son, baron. 0ur north america correspondent merlyn thomas has been telling me what the revised itinerary will look like over the next few days. this is the first of several inauguration dinners that donald trump will be attending in the next few days. yes, this is a weekend of real celebration for the incoming administration, and first on that list is at his golf club, at mr trump's very own golf club in virginia. and he's arriving with his family, his wife, melania trump, and he will bejoined by wife, melania trump, and he will be joined by 500 wife, melania trump, and he will bejoined by 500 guests — elected officials, cabinet members, supporters — already to celebrate with him and kick off what is essentially an inaugural weekend. inauguralweekend. yes, they say guests. —

sights. they include new york, la, miami and detroit. but another focus will be the southern border, arizona of course one of those southern states that has witnessed an enormous amount of illegal crossings over the past four years, and one of the states that flipped back to donald trump in november's presidential election. 0ur correspondent helena humphrey is there. i spoke to her a little earlier. helena, a border city like yuma, where you have been over the last few days, very much in focus at the moment. he's reiterated again today that mass deportations is a priority. how do they feel about that there? well, people have heard that pledge. they are not necessarily concerned about it, i have to say, christian. i think overwhelmingly the feeling here is one of excitement, perhaps a few nerves mixed in. but in terms of the support we are

seeing and hearing here in yuma, you've got to keep in mind that in this county, donald trump won by some 20 percentage points over harris. so there is excitement. a few people saying that they are apprehensive, but people have been speaking about immigration as an important factor for them. we'rejust about as an important factor for them. we're just about three miles away from the us — mexico border. underthe miles away from the us — mexico border. under the biden administration at times, particularly in 2003, for example, they did see an increase, times record levels, of illegal migrant crossings at the border. that has since fallen considerably since president biden put into place executive actions. but when i've been speaking to people saying, concerned about those mass deportation raids? they say yes, we are latinos, but we are here, of course, with papers, and that's not such a big concern. another issue for them really has been the economy. this is largely an agricultural community. a lot of people working on farms here. they are less likely than the average american voter to

have a college degree, and they say times for them have been hard. the past four years they felt the impact of inflation. now, i've been speaking to people out here at this market in yuma to find out what other concerns are on their mind. here is what people have told me. what matters to you? um... probably medical— me. what matters to you? um... probably medical freedom - me. what matters to you? um... probably medical freedom is - me. what matters to you? um... probably medical freedom is one | probably medical freedom is one of those — probably medical freedom is one of those things, no mandatory vaccination, stuff like that. i know — vaccination, stuff like that. i know he _ vaccination, stuff like that. i know he was into that. so thats— know he was into that. so that's good. so know he was into that. so that's good.— know he was into that. so that's aood. ., ~' that's good. so someone like rfkjunior— that's good. so someone like rfk junior as _ that's good. so someone like rfk junior as health - that's good. so someone like l rfk junior as health secretary, rfkjunior as health secretary, what do you think of that? absolutely wonderful. he is reai~ — absolutely wonderful. he is real. y , ., absolutely wonderful. he is real. g , ., , absolutely wonderful. he is real. g , ., , ., , ., real. my brother is a sergeant. he has deployed _ real. my brother is a sergeant. he has deployed right - real. my brother is a sergeant. he has deployed right now, . real. my brother is a sergeant. | he has deployed right now, and obviously— he has deployed right now, and obviously that— he has deployed right now, and obviously that is _ he has deployed right now, and obviously that is something - obviously that is something that— obviously that is something that is— obviously that is something that is always _ obviously that is something that is always in _ obviously that is something that is always in the - obviously that is something that is always in the back. obviously that is something j that is always in the back of my head. _ that is always in the back of my head, because... - that is always in the back of my head, because... but i that is always in the back of. my head, because... but we'll see _ my head, because... but we'll see i— my head, because... but we'll see tern _ my head, because... but we'll see. i am excited _ my head, because... but we'll see. i am excited but - my head, because... but we'll see. i am excited but not - see. i am excited but not excited, _ see. i am excited but not excited, and _ see. i am excited but not excited, and i'm- see. i am excited but not excited, and i'm ready. see. i am excited but not| excited, and i'm ready for change _ excited, and i'm ready for change “it _ excited, and i'm ready for change. i'mjust- excited, and i'm ready for change. i'm just ready- excited, and i'm ready for change. i'm just ready forj change. i'm just ready for change _ change. i'm just ready for change one _ change. i'm just ready for change. 0ne helena, - change. i'm just ready fori change. 0ne helena, what change. i'm just ready for. change. 0ne helena, what i

supporters. this meeting was set up by young latino voters, and they were organising a caravan, a convoy of vehicles to drive through yuma, through the streets, through the desert roads, flying flags in support of donald trump and jd vance. and i was curious to know more about the and i was curio
