Description

Big shakeups to the Trump administration as Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen resigns and the US Secret Service Director is also out. The changes signal a shift in the priorities for the president to tougher enforcement on the border as the acting head of DHS will be Kevin McAleenan, the Customs and Border Protection commissioner. Steve Gregory, national correspondent for iHeartMedia, joins us to discuss the current changes at DHS and also President Trump’s recent trip to the southern border.

Next, former “Smallville” actress Alison Mack has pleaded guilty for her role in the alleged sex-slave cult, NXIVM.  After making a tearful apology, Mack admitted that she helped find, recruit, and control women who joined the NXIVM founder Keith Raniere’s inner circle. Some of the women were branded with the founders initials and blackmailed into performing services for Raniere.  My producer Miranda joins us to break it all down.
