a lesson to the world. hello and welcome to newsday. i'm steve lai. a federaljudge has temporarily blocked president trump's order to end automatic citizenship for babies born on american soil. the judge in seattle said the order was "blatantly unconstitutional" and barred the administration from implementing it for two weeks. the case, brought by four states, is one of several lawsuits challenging mr trump's effort to end birthright citizenship for children born to undocumented migrants and foreign visitors. 22 states in all are challenging the executive order. the us department ofjustice has responded, saying it: our north america correspondent nomia iqbal says this roadblock

was to be expected. this was always going to be a difficult one for president trump to get through. for more than 125 years, nearly anyone born on us soil does get automatic citizenship — and that's regardless of their parent's immigration status. so, we're talking about undocumented migrants, people who are legally in the us but temporarily, such as tourists, students, workers. but mr trump says the amendment should be interpreted differently and those who support it say that, basically, it's allowed illegal immigration to flourish. now, one of the lawyers for washington state, that brought forward this lawsuit, said that this block could not be overturned in the end. they were confident that the amendment would stand. but donald trump has said that he would appeal. now, he could take it all the way to the supreme court — as we know, the supreme court has a conservative supermajority, thanks to him, and therefore, donald trump's supporters, those who support his executive order are hopeful

that the justices, if they do see the case, could potentially get it through. president trump says he isn't sure of the value of spending any money on nato — a military alliance of 32 countries across europe and north america. mr trump has long called for other nato members to increase their contributions, leading to fears that the alliance will be weakened now he has returned to the white house. in comments to the davos world economic forum, he said that while the us was protecting other members, they were not protecting the united states. it is in contrast to his secretary of state marco rubio, who has reaffirmed his us commitment to nato. he also told the world economic forum that foreign businesses should make their products in the united states if they want to avoid tariffs. speaking via video link from washington, he took questions from leaders of major banks, investment funds and oil

companies and took a carrot—and—stick approach. come make your product in america and we will give you among the lowest taxes of any nation on earth. we're bringing them down very substantially, even from the original trump tax cuts. but if you don't make your product in america — which is your prerogative — then, very simply, you will have to pay a tariff — differing amounts, but a tariff — which will direct hundreds of billions of dollars and even trillions of dollars into our treasury. our economics editor faisal islam has more from davos. donald trump's address to the world economic forum was extraordinary. it was a collision of two worlds. one in particular where here, where you have global chief executives, financiers and european leaders and other world leaders. they had hoped that some of the campaign rhetoric, some even of the inauguration rhetoric we heard from the us

president, would not have actually made it through to actual policies all the way in which america is going to act on the world stage. and so, we have this curious duality from the trump speech. charm offensive in the most real sense of that phrase, charming. "come to america, set up your factories here with tax "breaks, buy into a booming technological miracle "that will the america be under the golden age "of donald trump" as he sees it. i imagine it would have been fairly seductive to many of the executives — charm offensive. also saying that, "if you did not happen to want to set "up your factories in the us, that's your prerogative" but an oddly menacing way, "if you don't to do that,

"then be sure that your exports into the us will be tariffed, "and not just lightly". the revenue, he said, raising hundreds of billions of dollars if not trillions and it could only be universal tariff applied to all imports into the us. at different rates, he said, but exactly the sort of policy mentioned in the presidential election campaign which did not come to fruition on day one and had hoped right here would've been parked. jessica chen weiss is professor of china studies at johns hopkins school of advanced international studies. she was also a recent adviser in the state department on china policy. i asked her what stood out to her most from what trump said that margravine. —— said at davos. i think here he was quite clear that if countries come to the united states and invest injobs than they can avoid these high punitive tariffs and so, i think the real question is whether or not the united states will welcome, you know, chinese investment or licensing of chinese renewable energy technologies and particularly in batteries, where chinese companies are far out ahead.

so that's a real, i think area, to watch — maybe nptjust in that sector but in others. you know, not everybody in the trump coalition, i think, is quite so keen on but the president himself has made that quite clear, so that's an area to watch. yet, as faisal mentioned, there is a belief that the rhetoric of trump's campaign trail may not translate into actual policy. was that naive thinking? the thing is that on the campaign trail, trump said many different things, right? in many ways, there have been some inconsistency. —— in many ways, there have been some consistency. he said he would save tiktok. here he is, trying to save tiktok and find some kind of deal. and i think that it was interesting that there was not quite as much tough on china rhetoric during the campaign as i think many may have expected, given the so—called bipartisan consensus on china. i mean, of course, there was a fair bit of that but here, again, i think trump himself mentioned the idea that china could come — chinese

companies could come and invest in the united states butjd vance came out against it and so, i think there's a lot of noise and so we're still seeing i think how that all shakes out. on tuesday mr trump announced he will be pumping billions of dollars into an ai infrastructure partnership called sta rgate infrastructure partnership called stargate but the project is also sparking some questions and scepticism, including criticism from one of mr trump's closest advisor, dtek billionaire elon musk. for more on how it will be navigating its ties with the tech sector, we are joined its ties with the tech sector, we arejoined by its ties with the tech sector, we are joined by romesh. its ties with the tech sector, we arejoined by romesh. thank you forjoining me. what's a key thing we should be keeping in mind when it comes to big tech ceos and how they have been cosying up to donald trump? i been cosying up to donald trum? ~' ., trump? i think of the united states we've _ trump? i think of the united states we've never - trump? i think of the united states we've never seen - trump? i think of the united

states we've never seen so l states we've never seen so close same image between the state and political branch and the corporate branch and specifically a few billionaires, right, so if you billionaires, right, so if you billionaire is literally at the inauguration already making a number of concessions to mr trump and these are billionaires who control the ways we get our news, far more ways we get oui’ news, far more so ways we get our news, far more so than most media networks, they control the screens by which we receive and exchange information and they control the platforms that have taken over almost every kind of sector of the economy imaginable, from hotel accommodations to taxi driving and so on, so we are seeing an incredibly close relationship between mr trump and these tech oligarchs which is very troubling because it really confounds how we get our news and whether there is some sort of public component outside of what these corporate leaders and trump themselves are telling us to do, and their decision seems to be almost unlimited at this point so that's what we need to be aware of and vigilant of ——

need to understand the end of the day, appropriate for our conversation, what is going to benefit american voters, what will benefit american voters because this is what trump wanted to promise — that he would live on jobs and a better and an automatic economy that is growing more uneven at the moment. there are promises about creation ofjobs but we know next to nothing about this. musk and altman may have... ~ ., ., ~ , ., have... we will have to keep a close eye _ have. .. we will have to keep a close eye how— have... we will have to keep a close eye how that _ have... we will have to keep a close eye how that does - have... we will have to keep a close eye how that does play | close eye how that does play out, romesh.— close eye how that does play out, romesh. yes, thank you. those out, romesh. yes, thank you. these other— out, romesh. yes, thank you. those other questions - out, romesh. yes, thank you. those other questions we - out, romesh. yes, thank you. those other questions we will| those other questions we will to ask. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. the met office has issued a rare red weather alert for northern ireland and the central belt of scotland for storm eowyn tomorrow. affected areas could see gusts of up to ioomph and flying debris resulting in danger to life. an amber warning is in place

remember as this was beating me, i did not look at her eyes. i looked at her forehead. me, i did not look at her eyes. i looked at herforehead. i did not make a sound. because my mother had once told me the more you show that they hurt you, the more pleasure they get. it was the mantra in auschwitz. don't show. don't give them the satisfaction. suffer in silence. beatings, hunger, freezing weather, being barefoot — that's a survival skill. don't let them know who you are. i contact is something that people recognise. —— eye contact. don't look into people's lives. it contact. don't look into people's lives.- people's lives. it is an incredible _ people's lives. it is an incredible survival - people's lives. it is an | incredible survival skill people's lives. it is an - incredible survival skill for such a little girl as well to have learned and being taught
