Any doubts about the sincerity of Trump?s anti-immigrant rhetoric have been decisively laid to rest in his first week in office.

Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto said he will not make a scheduled visit to Washington after the new US leader ordered a border wall between the two nations.

An agent of the border patrol, observed near the Mexico-US border fence, on the Mexican side, separating the towns of Anapra, Mexico and Sunland Park, New Mexico, this week.

In 2006, Democrats were saying ?build that fence!?

A 2006 bill shows how border security occupied Washington well before Trump made it the centerpiece of his candidacy.

What?s an executive order? And, more importantly, how is Trump using them?
