Trump's goal is to unwind Biden's policies and resume where he left off after his first term. He has promised to close the border and launch the largest domestic deportation operation in U.S. history.

Expect to see a focus on menswear: jackets, trousers, suits, hats, and maybe a cane or two.

Humanitarian organizations – including the Haitian Bridge Alliance in San Diego – are urging the Biden administration to stop all deportations to Haiti, where armed groups have taken over large parts of the country. Then, starting this month, the cities of Oceanside and Vista will be getting their power from the Clean Energy Alliance. Plus, a look at the subsidy chasm for childcare in San Diego.
