of the house. control of congress is up for grabs, how do you think this will end? t looks like the house is favored for republicans so that's the white house, the courts and both houses of congress. i would anticipate we will see donald trump try to put in his agenda, top priority the mass deportations and it is unclear whether he talks about approximately 18,000 undocumented people with a criminal history or the 12 million who are undocumented or at various points up to 60 million. that would include people who are here legally so it's hard to say what the deportations will look like, but i imagine he will prioritize that and maybe the tariffs, corporate tax cuts, donald trump cut the corporate tax from 35 to 21 during his first term, now proposing down to 15. we will see him , day one with a presumed mandate putting policies in place. >> professor from occidental college, thank you for your insight. as always. i'm sure we will continue to have these chats. switching gears let's get over to first alert meteorologist zoe mintz. today, the beautiful day and tomorrow,

unusual in recent years, we have tended to have divided government where at least one of the houses of congress was controlled by the other party, uh- than than the white house. and americans seem to prefer that, you know, that it's kind of a catch 22 because they tend to not want to let one party have all of the power to have that kind of check on, on, you know, checks and balances. but then we complain about nothing getting done in congress. so if indeed we know that the senate has a majority republican now, that's also not a surprise, given the seats that were up for election this year. that was pretty likely that the that the republicans would gain back control of the senate. we don't know yet about the house, but given again the trends we're seeing, it is likely that it could also have a republican majority in which case that really gives a lot of momentum and power to the republican party to enact their policies and agenda. now, trump has said a lot of different things over the course of his campaign. and, you know, some of them have been pretty disturbing. so we'll have to see what he ac
