Former President Donald Trump has won the Republican presidential primary in South Carolina, the hometown of his fiercest opponent, Nikki Haley. 

Meanwhile republicans are divided in their response to a ruling from the Alabama Supreme Court that states embryos are children.

It has prompted IVF clinics to pause procedures until more clarity is given.

Finally Danielle discusses President Joe Biden's latest moves on border control.

He has told governors that he is looking into executive actions to stem the flow of undocumented immigrants on the southern border.
