Description

After the president announced that there would be mass deportations coming over the weekend, he decided to delay planned immigration raids for two weeks to give Democrats time to change asylum laws.  This comes as we find out that the government has had to move almost 300 migrant children from a remote border patrol station in Texas due to poor conditions.  Alicia Caldwell, immigration reporter for the WSJ, joins us for the latest immigration news.

Next, as tensions have been running high since Iran shot down an unmanned American drone, President Trump is leveling new sanctions against Iranian leaders.  President Trump had previously called off a military strike and thought that this was a more proportionate response.  Bryan Bender, Defense editor for Politico, joins us for what to expect from these sanctions and how we got here.

Finally, there has been another fight that has gone viral.  This one included parents and coaches at a youth baseball game in Lakewood Colorado.  The players were all seven years old, and the parents were upset with a call made by the umpire, who is 13.  Six adults have been cited in this fight so far.  Jason Gay, sports columnist for the WSJ joins us to talk about why parents get so angry.
