Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary and U.S. Presidential candidate Julián Castro answers questions during a live town hall moderated by CNN's Nia-Malika Henderson at The Novo in Los Angeles.
It finally happened: on Tuesday, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi announced the beginning of a formal impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump. The final straw was a July phone call in which Trump pushed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate his potential 2020 rival, Joe Biden, and appeared to suggest that US aid to Ukraine might be contingent upon his compliance. Nearly all of the 2020 Democratic candidates have come out in support of impeachment proceedings. On this week’s Deconstructed, one of those candidates, former HUD Secretary Julián Castro, joins Mehdi Hasan to discuss the week’s developments. Intercept DC Bureau Chief Ryan Grim stops by to break down the political prospects for impeachment.

A whopping 20 Democratic presidential candidates met in Miami, Florida this week for the first in what promises to be a very long season of primary debates. Pre-debate buzz centered around frontrunners like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren—or Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, who let the fireworks fly on the second night in a heated exchange over the ex-Vice President’s record on school bussing. One surprise standout was former HUD Secretary Julián Castro, who made headlines on the first night for his radical immigration proposals and for clashing with fellow Texan Beto O’Rourke. Castro joins Mehdi to talk about his big night, and Intercept DC Bureau Chief Ryan Grim stops by to analyze the debates.

They discuss immigration, Puerto Rico, housing policy, why Democrats have underperformed with Latino voters and how he plans to make the debates and win.

Gov. Greg Abbott and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick were inaugurated this week as they begin their second terms as the top elected officeholders in Texas. Each made a solid commitment to funding public education while the House and Senate offered their initial budget proposals, each reflecting that commitment. It's a far cry from the beginning of the last legislative session two years ago when divisive public restroom restrictions, cracking down on undocumented immigrants, and sweeping abortion restrictions topped the agenda. Why the change? Former San Antonio Mayor and HUD Secretary Julián Castro launched his campaign for president in the Alamo City and Ryan was on the scene while Jeremy has the latest on why Beto O'Rourke says he's "in and out of a funk." Plus Ted Cruz gives a lesson on how to grow a beard. Go behind the headlines for a look at what's really going on at the Texas Capitol and in Washington with the state's #1 political podcast: The Texas Take. Join the conversation featuring Scott Braddock, editor of The Quorum Report, Texas Public Radio Capitol reporter Ryan Poppe, and Chronicle political writer Jeremy Wallace. Support the show.

This past week POLITICO reported that several progressive groups have targeted HUD Secretary Julián Castro, questioning his vice presidential qualifications if Hillary Clinton were to win the Democratic presidential nomination. That campaign led to dissension among Latino organizations, according to BuzzFeed. Others have weighed in on the story, claiming that Castro being Latino is just irrelevant. The chatter keeps getting stronger, so much so that Castro had to address it with NBC News. We talk with Matt Nelson, Managing Director at Presente.org, one of the groups who is criticizing Castro for "selling our neighborhoods to Wall Street." An online petition has generated close to 100,000 signatures in just a few days. Later in the show, Brent Wilkes, the National Executive Director for the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), will join us as well. LULAC and other Latino organizations have been critical of the campaign against Castro.
