New LA fire, Davos and DEI, Trump's immigration threats, tariffs-for-tax cuts and Syria’s police

Trump steps up his immigration crackdown, warning city and state officials not to interfere, while his push to use tariffs to pay for tax
cuts faces opposition in Congress. And Syria's new authorities are using Islamic teachings to train a fledgling police force, a move officers say aims to instil a sense of morality as they race to fill a security vacuum.
