that colombia has caved many times. migrants being deported back from the united states arrive here in latin america in handcuffs. >> a race against the rain. their aim to divert water that could trigger dangerous mudslides. >> we'll be here. >> however long we need to be. >> in order to help this community recover. >> it's just so hard to get to the super bowl and i don't take it for granted. >> these guys. >> are hungry. >> we got one more to go. they don't give me a vote for mvp, but i would vote for saquon. >> live from london. this is cnn newsroom with max foster and christina macfarlane. hello. >> and a warm welcome to our viewers joining us. >> from. >> around the world i'm max foster. it's monday january the 27th, 9 a.m. here in london, 4 a.m. in washington and bogota, colombia, where a trade war fueled by u.s. president donald trump's immigration crackdown now appears to have been averted. late on sunday, president trump
1:02 am
imposed, then quickly suspended a 25% tariff on colombia after the country agreed to accept military flights carrying deported migrants. earlier, colombia's president had apparently blocked two of those flights from landing in his country. but the colombian foreign minister now says they have overcome the impasse with the u.s. the white house issued a statement saying, quote, the government of colombia has agreed to all of president trump's terms, including the unrestricted acceptance of all illegal aliens from colombia returned from the united states, including on u.s. military aircraft, without limitation or delay. the statement went on to say president trump will continue to fiercely protect our nation's sovereignty. this comes as immigration raids ordered by the trump administration have been taking place all across the u.s. immigration and customs enforcement officials reported nearly 1000 arrests on sunday. they raided cities from atlanta to los angeles, from san juan,
1:03 am
puerto rico, to austin, texas. in chicago, ice officials performed so-called enhanced targeted operations. the white house border czar telling cnn the department had, quote, a good day in the city. vice president jd vance is defending the administration's sweeping actions. >> i support. >> us doing law enforcement against violent criminals, whether they're illegal immigrants or anybody else, in a way that keeps us safe. >> but illinois governor j.b. pritzker tells cnn that immigration officials, immigration officials are also rounding up productive community members. >> when we're talking about violent criminals who have been convicted and who are undocumented, we don't want them in our state. we want them out of the country. we hope they do get deported. and if that's who they're picking up, we're all for it. they show up with a warrant, and we're going to hand over people who are in our prisons or in our jails who fit that description. now, what
1:04 am
they're also doing, though, and it's quite disturbing, is they're going after people who are law abiding, who are holding down jobs, who have families here who may have been here for a decade or two decades. and they're often our neighbors and our friends. and why are we going after them? these are not people who are causing problems in our country. and what we need is a path to citizenship for them. >> well, this doorbell video shows ice agents at a man's home in georgia. they arrested a 53 year old undocumented immigrant from honduras. according to his family, he worked in construction and lived outside atlanta with his wife and four children. they say he had no criminal record aside from a ticket for driving without a license, for which he paid a fine. back in chicago, fear and uncertainty are spreading quickly over the sweeping immigration raids. cnn's rosa flores has those details. >> the trump administration's border czar, tom homan, was here in chicago last year, and he made a promise. he said, that chicago
1:05 am
would be ground zero for mass deportations, that chicago would be the epicenter of these mass deportations. and he has kept his promise. we have learned from ice officials that immigration agents are in chicago. they are on the ground, and they are enforcing immigration law. they are doing targeted enforcement of individuals who pose a threat to public safety or a threat to national security. here's how tom homan told abc news about these enforcement actions. >> whether you see the numbers steadily increase, the number of arrests nationwide as we open up the aperture right now is concentrating on public safety threats, national security threats. that's a smaller population. so we're going to do this on priority basis, as president trump has promised. but as that aperture opens, there will be more arrests nationwide. >> now, homan described these individuals with criminal backgrounds as a small population. well, we also learned from ice that ice
1:06 am
officials will be getting quotas. in essence, according to ice, that ice offices across the united states will be required to arrest 75 people per day per ice office. that's going to put a lot of pressure on ice agents to go into communities and arrest people. again, homan himself saying that there's a very small population of immigrants who actually have criminal backgrounds. so then how are these individuals going to meet their quotas? i can tell you from talking to sources and contacts here in chicago, that there is a lot of fear in immigrant communities, so much so that some individuals say that some people are not going to work, they are not sending their children to school. they are cooping up in their homes because they are in so much fear. now, these are individuals that don't have criminal backgrounds. these are individuals who are going through asylum proceedings, but they're afraid that they might be caught in these mass
1:07 am
deportations. as a matter of fact, there are organizations here in the in the chicago area that are dropping off groceries for some migrants because migrants are not going to the grocery store, they're not going to work. and now they're really worried that they might not have enough money for rent whenever rent is due. so there's a lot of pressure, there's a lot of fear, a lot of anxiety here in the city of chicago that we've learned from organizations, civil rights groups that are out helping migrants. now, we don't know exactly where the ice enforcement actions have happened in chicago so far, but we're expecting to learn more from ice about those numbers and about where these enforcement actions actually happened. rosa flores, cnn, chicago. >> joining us, thomas gift, director of the center on u.s. politics at university college london. thank you so much for
1:08 am
joining us. i mean, a real statement of intent here from donald trump. do you think he got everything he wanted because it seems as though he did. >> well. >> thanks so much for having me, max. it's great to be with you. you know, it's easy to lose track of everything that trump is promising on immigration. the bedrock of his policy is carrying out this largest mass deportation in u.s. history. however, the pentagon has also announced the deployment of 1500 additional u.s. troops to the us-mexico border. trump has ordered the halting of the processing of asylum seekers. he's done away with the smartphone app that migrants could log into to schedule appointments with the u.s. border control. trump is also increasing the authority of ice to execute these raids. so, you know, in this case, i think donald trump is getting a lot of what he wants. but at the same time, without bipartisan immigration reform, it's going to be very difficult for the president to achieve unilaterally everything that he's looking for., because he's obviously taking the you know, he's he's going ahead with a
1:09 am
big decisions with legal ramifications without going through, you know, a process of considering, you know, what those legal ramifications are, what would be the appeal procedure for people who want to stop him from doing what he wants to do? i'm not intimately familiar with all the details of the u.s. immigration system, but i think that there's very little that he can do. i mean, most of what donald trump is doing, he our actions that he can take through executive action or through executive order. i mean, there's always a case that kind of local, municipal or state authorities refuse to enforce some of those laws. but much of this is federal. and so it's unclear whether those migrants who are being deported will have much legal recourse if, in fact, they are put back to their home countries. >> an interesting precedent set with colombia with this idea that if they didn't accept the immigrants that he wanted them to accept, or the migrants he wanted them to accept, then he
1:10 am
would slap on this massive tariff which was going to escalate, wasn't it? within a week. and that proved effective and would show how he's going to, you know, respond to other countries that don't go along with what he wants. >> i think you've got that absolutely right, max. the colombia situation where the government is now agreeing to accept these repatriation flights, it's a case in point for how trump wants to use tariffs as a negotiating ploy rather than a long term strategy, but this is really the transactional nature of an america first foreign policy. it's not values based. it's all about america extracting concessions. so you're right that trump is definitely going to view this success in colombia as a reason to double down elsewhere. there's huge momentum right now inside the administration for 25% tariffs on mexico and canada. so we could be seeing a continental trade war in north america. and for trump, that may just be the opening salvo for hitting china with tariffs. and also eu countries with tariffs. so it's
1:11 am
really a tariff. first talk, second approach to diplomacy. he saw that it worked this time. so it's there's no reason for him to think that he won't do it again. >> i mean he's a businessman. he'll realize that you know if he does go ahead with these tariffs then other countries will tariff him back. i mean, the way the american economy works, it's truly globalized. it's going to have an impact on the american economy. he'll be aware of that. but do you think he you know, he's minded to reduce the tariffs as quickly as he puts them on? if he gets what he wants? >> well, i think you're right that donald trump can push around countries like colombia, but maybe less so the european union, for example, especially if they're acting in unison. even canada and mexico, which are very, very important to the u.s. economy. and you can absolutely guarantee that trump's tariffs are not going to go unnoticed. and there's going to be retaliation for sure. you know, trump has said that tariffs are the most beautiful word in the english language. but he's going to
1:12 am
figure out very soon what the impact of this is on the u.s. economy. maybe he doesn't care. but the main key issue that he kind of ran on in 2024 was getting prices down. and if there's anything that's more inflationary than tariffs, i would like to know it because essentially what companies are going to do is just pass on higher prices to consumers. so this could be, you know, a really tough learning curve for donald trump for sure. >> you talked there about how, you know, it's tougher with europe because, you know, amongst the eu countries at least, they are unified. do you think the risk here for donald trump is that he's creating common ground between other countries, which are facing the prospect of tariffs, and they could work together in unison to respond back, which would have a big effect on the u.s. economy. >> yeah, absolutely. and i think even worse than that is that this might be driving the european union and some of these other countries into the hands
1:13 am
of china and russia. so they can't look across the atlantic for, you know, what they need in terms of supply chains, in terms of markets and so on. then they're going to look elsewhere. that also includes for energy. so, you know, i think that there's a big risk here for donald trump. there's certainly some division within the administration about how far tariffs should be used. and again, i really do think that trump is just using this as a negotiating tactic. but if everybody knows that it's just a negotiating tactic, you have to wonder sort of how effective it will be. but donald trump has been very ideologically consistent on tariffs dating back to his first administration. and even before. and so i wouldn't be surprised if we do see 10 to 20% tariffs on all imports to the united states, upwards of 60% tariffs on imports from china. and that could have a huge ripple effect across the global economy. >> thomas gift as ever, thank you so much for your insights today. >> thanks, max. >> now, a database detailing the
1:14 am
criminal charges and successful convictions of january 6th rioters has been removed from the u.s. justice department's website. this comes. this coincides with president trump's decision to pardon all convicted january 6th defendants. records of the cases still exist, but it's now much harder to track them down. whilst january 6th, rioters celebrating the move u.s. justices are accusing or judges rather are accusing the trump administration of, quote, whitewashing the mob's attack on the capitol and some u.s. lawmakers are voicing a growing concern over how pardons are being issued. >> it was wrong to give these pardons. >> and. >> among other. >> things. >> what it says now. >> to the trump. family and to president trump's kids. they can engage in any kind of malfeasance, criminality. >> graft. >> whatever, and they can expect a pardon on the way out the door. >> but he said. >> it during the campaign. he's not tricking people, you know. biden promised not to pardon his family. he did. trump said, i'm
1:15 am
going to pardon these people. so the fact that he did it is no surprise. but i'll be consistent here. i don't like the idea of bailing people out of jail or pardoning people who burn down cities and beat up cops. whether you're a republican or a democrat. >> world leaders are gathering in poland to mark 80 years since the liberation of the auschwitz-birkenau concentration camp. in the coming hours. some of the remaining survivors of the holocaust will speak in a ceremony at the camp. nazis murdered more than a million people at auschwitz alone during world war ii. part of the 6 million jews killed throughout the holocaust, the nazis also targeted poles, the roma, gays and soviet prisoners of war at the direction of adolf hitler. when soviet troops arrived at the gates of auschwitz in 1945, they were greeted by scenes like this some 7000 weakened, emaciated prisoners. this year's commemoration of their liberation comes as the number of holocaust survivors is rapidly dwindling, and
1:16 am
anti-semitism is on the rise across europe and the middle east. >> people think if they remember these, then such will not happen again. but it has not happened day by day. perhaps it happens not to jews, but some other ethnicity. the world had not seen so much cruelty as in the 20th century. >> well, as the world remembers the horrors of the holocaust, the remaining survivors want to make sure that the next generation never forget. i'd like to think. >> that they have opened their eyes a bit to what can happen well, that's coming up in about 30 minutes here on cnn. >> also ahead, displaced palestinians are finally being allowed to return home to northern gaza. we'll bring you the details of the latest agreement between israel and hamas in the u.s. southern california still battling wildfires. but now the region is facing a new threat. plus, the matchup for super bowl 59 now

1:21 am
of palestinians to finally return home to the north. look at those scenes there. tens of thousands of palestinians waited for two days at roadblocks after israel accused hamas of breaching a ceasefire agreement and refused to open crossing border points. this comes after hamas agreed to release israeli hostage arbel yehoud soldier agam berger and one other hostage on thursday and free another three more hostages on saturday. meanwhile, the u.s. says that the separate ceasefire agreement between israel and lebanon would remain in effect until february the 16th. lebanese officials said at least 22 people were killed and more than 120 injured by the israeli forces as thousands of people tried to return home to the south after a sunday israel withdrawal deadline passed. the idf had released an order prohibiting residents from returning to their villages. in southern california, many of the
1:22 am
wildfires that have caused so much damage are close to containment, but the scorched land left behind is facing a new threat, and that's flash flooding and mudslides. flood watches are now in effect until monday afternoon local time. rain moving through right now may be good for battling fires, but too much of it on dry, hardened soil can trigger mudslides and debris flow. several road closures have already been reported in places like los angeles county. could see between half an inch and one inch of rainfall, while higher elevations could get as much as three inches. cnn's julia vargas jones has more on what the national guard is doing to prevent these mudslides we're in. >> altadena, california. >> and we're entering the sierra madre. villa debris basin. >> the national. >> guard deployed to. >> assist first responders just. >> hours after the. deadly fires in pacific palisades in altadena began in the first week of

1:30 am
indicted president yoon suk yeol on insurrection charges. it comes after his short lived attempt to impose martial law in december. yoon remains in custody and denies any wrongdoing, but he is now the first sitting president in south korea's history to be indicted. well, at this hour, u.s. deportation flights to colombia have resumed after a dizzying turn of events late on sunday. u.s. president donald trump announced a 25% tariff on colombia for refusing to accept two such flights. colombia's president then threatened his own tariff on u.s. goods, but both sides soon backed down, seeming to have settled the issue pretty quickly. cnn contributor stephanie joseph aoun explains why the colombian president initially blocked those u.s. military planes from carrying deportees from entering the country. >> president petro was trying to send a message. the message was that they would not accept the
1:31 am
military flights or what he calls a inhumane treatment of these migrants. in one of the things that apparently was particularly hard to digest is that many times, migrants being deported back from the united states arrive here in latin america in handcuffs, as if they have committed any crime. and of course, the position of the latin american government is that a migrant does not commit a crime just by crossing into the united states. however undocumented. now, of course, that is the same that happened over a few days with brazil and mexico, who have also protested these treatment. pedro tried to draw a line and then probably. well, we have seen on one side the twitter diplomacy or ex diplomacy, we should call it with pedro. posting his ideas and his state policies on x in real time, and donald trump doing the same on his own social media. truth social, as if the two leaders were almost
1:32 am
messaging each other and bickering frankly in front of our eyes. and on the other hand, we have seen the diplomatic back channels that have provided a fruit and provided a success. colombia has been a staunch ally of north america, of the united states over the last 50 years. these channels have always worked in the last few hours. throughout today, we were in touch with sources, with experts, with analysts, with diplomats who were telling us that the phones were really busy as the professionals were trying to amend the rift that the two presidents had caused. and in the end, what we're still seeing two different versions, one on the one side, the white house saying that colombia has caved and they have accepted all of president trump's terms. and on the other side, the colombian government saying that they will accept deportation flights with humane treatment. maybe it's just a matter of using civilian aircraft rather than military aircraft, because this country
1:33 am
has received more than 124 deportation flights over the last 12 months. so it's not like that. these flights are a new thing. what really triggered this reaction was the use of military aircraft and probably the handcuffs towards these migrants. >> brazil is slamming the way u.s. agents are threatening immigrants, calling it degrading. the brazilian federal police say they discovered 88 deportees who were handcuffed by their feet and hands on a plane that was in poor condition. the country's foreign ministry says it violates an agreement with the u.s., which calls for the, quote, dignified, respectful and humane treatment of returnees. cnn has reached out to the u.s. department of homeland security and state department for comment on that. and president trump's aggressive push to crack down on immigration is bringing into question what his policies could mean for those in the u.s. legally on work visas. cnn's david culver reports on that. >> calling out to us from the back of the bus, juan manuel cisneros shows us
1:34 am
what he describes as his american dream come true. musica de. >> aqui esta. >> estoy aqui en este pais. >> i said, do you always carry that. >> document with you? >> and he goes, yeah. >> because if anything happens, he can. >> pull it. >> out and. >> say. >> i'm here legally in this country. everyone on this bus can say the same. they're farmworkers here on h-2a visas, which allow foreign workers to fill temporary or seasonal agricultural jobs. they come here for about eight months. all the folks on this bus are on their lunch break are from mexico. he says they're able to work the field, and as. >> he sees it. >> it's a good solution to be able to make money and yet at the same time, be here legally. but with that visa comes grueling work. >> nobody local wants. >> to work in agriculture. >> harvesting crops. nobody. >> these are. >> hard working. >> able bodied men, and that's what they're doing. they're doing manual. >> labor. >> and they're doing it in a
1:35 am
place that might surprise you. that's east. >> yeah. >> if i go far enough, i'll hit mar-a-lago. >> yeah you will. >> you need only travel about 40 miles from here as roth farms sits just on the western edge of palm beach county, florida. it certainly doesn't feel. >> like the. >> beaches of palm beach. >> but it has the weather. >> which can be brutally hot and humid for those working these fields. yet, despite his need for a reliable and cost efficient workforce, roth says he supports president trump's stance on immigration. is he going to get more difficult to get workers? do you think under president trump and the crackdown on immigration? >> no. >> i think it actually will get easier. >> we just want people. >> to be vetted., and we want. good workers that are. >> come out, come out here. >> so the h-2a. visa program may seem like a perfect solution to keep predominantly migrant workers employed on farms like this one here in florida. but critics point out that it doesn't cover every person or every situation. say, for example, those migrants who are fleeing violent and dangerous
1:36 am
situations and don't have a home to go back to once the season's over, or those who simply want to live and work with their families year round in the u.s., then you've got small farmers who say that the program is just way too costly and way too complicated. for now, though, roth sees h-2a visas as the best way to keep u.s. farms running. he hires a third party company to handle the logistics. they recruit the workers from abroad and then place them at several different farms, including roth's. >> you hire them in mexico and you transport them over here. you pay all the transportation costs for that. i pay all the transportation costs. we put them up in housing, we pay all the housing costs. the only thing we're allowed to charge them for is the cost of the food. when we feed them. >> so what is it like for these workers? >> so here it is about 5:00. >> in the evening. and these workers have just finished their shift at roth farms. they're arriving back at their housing

complex. juan manuel and the others invite us to meet them after their work day is over yeah. what do you do this time of the day? yeah. when you get here from work. >> de la. >> tarde llegamos a comer. >> dinner's at six c. we can go with him. he's inviting us up muchas gracias. aqui. no, they've been working ten hours today. they work six, sometimes seven days a week. they have just a few things that they need. a few changes of clothes, some snacks and not much privacy. juan manuel shows us his setup. he says what he makes is about $16 an hour. so here what you make in an hour, as he puts it, is an entire day's work in mexico. this is his third year on the visa work program, he said. the money that he makes here, he's able to support his family in mexico as well, and help his mom and dad and brother and sister., para poder sobrevivir. and he said, that's what you need to do to survive.
1:38 am
