 Donald Trump has defended his hardline stance on immigration by hosting an event with relatives of people killed by what the president called "illegal alien crime" and contrasting the families who had been "permanently" separated from their loved ones with those currently languishing on the US border. Following the massive public outcry over his administration's "zero tolerance" approach to illegal border crossings - which has resulted in the separation of more than 2,000 children from their parents, Mr Trump reversed the policy earlier this week using an executive order. "These are the American citizens permanently separated from their loved ones," Mr Trump said.

South Carolina Republican congressional candidate Katie Arrington, who ousted incumbent U.S. Representative Mark Sanford in a primary this month, was seriously injured in a car crash that killed the driver of a second vehicle, her campaign said on Saturday. Arrington, 47, was the passenger in a car driven by a friend on Friday night when a vehicle traveling in the wrong direction struck them on Highway 17 in Charleston County as they were going to Hilton Head where Arrington was to receive an award from a state medical organization, her campaign said. Campaign spokesman Michael Mule said Arrington will definitely stay in the race for Congress.
