A caravan of people in Central America are fleeing a devastating situation in their home countries. They're seeking asylum because they have no other options. Donald Trump and Mike Pence mocked them by saying that the Democrats are funding the caravan and that members of ISIS are trying to sneak in through the southern border. They're lies. There's zero evidence that any of what Trump says is true. Trump also weighed in on the death of Jamal Khashoggi. He didn't say much to condemn the killing, but Sec of State Mike Pompeo announced that we are revoking visas of the men responsible. Hardly a strong reaction. We talk to Elise Foley from HuffPost, Jon Allen from NBC News and Lorraine Woellert from Politico!

Now that people are seeing the details of the "deal" we made with North Korea, there are more questions than answers. Did Kim Jong Un really agree to denuclearize? Are we really giving up our war games? What was the point? One thing is certain: This is a mess. We talk about it with Nahal Toosi from Politico and Jordan Fabian from The Hill.Plus, Jeff Sessions and the DOJ claim that violent Mexican gangs are a major problem, but then deny people the opportunity to seek asylum. It doesn't add up. Elise Foley from HuffPost gives us the details.

This week President Trump struck a surprising deal with congressional Democrats to fund the government for only three months.

This week, instead of the usual encore show, we will be airing a remix of the best segments from previous shows on the topic of illegal immigration. This subject is so dear to Bob's heart (and mind) that he has been compelled to revisit it half a dozen times, and he will continue to do so for as long as it remains an issue. Bob's stance on immigration: Let them all in.In defending this position, he has interviewed former two-term Governor and Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson, Cato Institute immigration expert Alex Nowrasteh, Huffington Post reporter Elise Foley, and Sophia Campos, an aspiring professional and undocumented student at UCLA. This one-hour special will include select segments from each of these interviews, along with lively debate between Bob and his numerous callers. Few subjects elicit such strong emotions from across the spectrum as illegal immigration. This is all the more reason to learn the facts and get answers to the questions you've always been too afraid to ask. Are open borders compatible with a welfare state? Why are our border regions so violent? Are the most recent waves of immigrants assimilating like past generations of newcomers to the United States? Find out, this Sunday at the usual time.

This week, after several months of "will-he-or-won't he" wonderings, President Barack Obama went ahead on his own and issued new executive actions to fill the space where a comprehensive immigration reform bill should be. We'll sort this out with HuffPost immigration reporter Elise Foley. Meanwhile, the Senate came one vote shy of approving the Keystone XL pipeline -- all because Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) got the notion that willing the pipeline into existence might rescue her all-but-doomed re-election prospects. HuffPost environmental reporter Kate Sheppard is here with her observations on this strange week in the life of the Keystone debate. Finally, have you heard about this CIA torture report? This long-awaited investigation of the troubled period in the War On Terror was supposed to be nearing its release. But that's now in doubt as legislators and the White House fight over redactions. We'll find out what secrets we can with HuffPost's national security reporter Ali Watkins. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Our Founders? worse fears have materialized, compliments of Janet Napolitano. For the first time in 233 years, our country has a national police force! The Department of Homeland Security has deputized the entire nation?s police departments to enforce our racist, arbitrary and un-American immigration laws. It?s called the Secure Communities Initiative and it makes Commissar Napolitano the Police Chief in Chief. Is that merely a very bad idea or the beginning of the end of locally controlled police departments? Join Bob and Huffington Post reporter Elise Foley this Sunday at noon to discuss the federal takeover of our cops. What?s next? Can it be stopped?
