Description

After last weekend's attack in New York City, the country is once again intensely focused on immigration. Much of this debate stems from fear, but for such an emotional issue, how much can facts really do to change people’s minds? And with Donald Trump facing so much criticism on his immigration policy, do Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and the Democrats really deserve a pass?

Julio Ricardo Varela leads a conversation with Liz Llorente, Politics Editor for Fox News Latino, and Kai Wright, Features Editor of The Nation and host of the upcoming podcast, The United States of Anxiety.
