Millions fear deportation under new rules unveiled by the Trump administration.

鈥淭here鈥檚 nothing wrong with any country insisting that their laws be followed.鈥欌

A US sheriff explains why he supports Trump鈥檚 crackdown on unauthorised immigrants; immigrants at a 鈥渄ay labour鈥 centre consider 鈥渟elf-deporting鈥; a city debates offering 鈥渟anctuary鈥 to undocumented immigrants and things get ugly; Chandran Kukathas, a political science professor, asks why we even need borders; a businessman spends $1 million of his own money to help settle Syrian refugees; and a Swedish director learns that you can't direct a cat.
