TribCast: What is Texas’ role in Trump’s immigration crackdown?
Sign up for The Brief, The Texas Tribune’s daily newsletter that keeps readers up to speed on the most essential Texas news.
TribCast hosts James Barragán and Eleanor Klibanoff are joined by colleague Alejandro Serrano who has been reporting on the swift movement of President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown. The gang discusses the role that Texas has played and will continue to play in leading immigration enforcement policy and whether a Republican administration in the White House could lead the state to reduce the billions of dollars it spends each year on border security.
They also discuss the Kansas City Chiefs' disappointing loss in the Super Bowl and TribCast host Eleanor Klibanoff showed off her impressive sports knowledge.
