In this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” Sara tackles the increasing trend of Americans being punished for defending themselves. Highlighting the case of Scott Hayes, a veteran charged for protecting himself at a pro-Israel protest in Newton, Massachusetts, Sara points out similar incidents in New York and Texas. Under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Sara argues, self-defense is criminalized while left-wing movements and the media portray conservatives as violent aggressors. The conversation shifts to the Biden administration's CBP One app, which facilitates mass immigration at the Mexico-Guatemala border. Sara discusses how this policy mirrors Europe's immigration crisis with taxpayers footing the bill. She also addresses John Legend's criticism of immigration opponents, calling out the hypocrisy of elites is disconnected from the realities Americans face. Sara revisits the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, exposing whistleblower revelations about the Secret Service's failures. Senator Richard Blumenthal's warning about the upcoming report adds to concerns about government transparency. The discussion then covers Biden's resignation announcement and how Judge Scott McAfee dropped charges in the Georgia election case against Trump, highlighting the Left's manipulation of the justice system. Sara also addresses how the Left has overplayed its hand with name-calling, rendering labels like “homophobe” and “Nazi” meaningless. The episode closes with a discussion of the ongoing controversy around Fani Willis in Fulton County and Tim Walz's gaffe referring to Kamala Harris as a "young prostitute." Sara is joined by independent journalist Kyle Becker and Breanna Morello, host of "The Breanna Morello Show." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
From October 27, 2018: There is a caravan—you've probably heard something about it. Stephanie Leutert, director of the Mexico Security Initiative at the Robert S. Strauss Center for International Security and Law, has heard something about it. On Friday, Benjamin Wittes caught up with Leutert to talk about her time on the Mexico-Guatemala border traveling with migrants who are following a trail not unlike that of the caravan. They talked about why people are joining this caravan, what are alternatives to it, why certain migrants are shunning it, the factors pushing people out of countries like Honduras and Guatemala, and what it's like to be a child on the long trek to the United States.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

MCALLEN, Texas Congressman Vicente Gonzalez says cartels in Mexico could have earned $1.2 billion this year through smuggling undocumented migrants into the United States. The McAllen Democrat arrived at this figure by multiplying 172,000, which is the number of migrants known to have crossed the southern border in the last three months, by $6,000, which is the going rate to get an undocumented immigrant into the United States. Gonzalez is urging the Biden Administration to process asylum seekers on the Mexico-Guatemala border. That way, he said, you “take cartels out of the equation.Gonzalez recently took a bipartisan group of congress men and women, known as the Problem Solvers Caucus, to the southern border. He followed this up by quizzing Ricardo Zúñiga, special envoy for the Northern Triangle at the U.S. Department of State, during a hearing of the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s Western Hemisphere, Civilian Security, Migration and International Economic Policy Subcommittee.Another Biden official he questioned was Peter Natiello, deputy assistant administrator in the Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean, U.S. Agency for International Development. The hearing was titled, “Renewing the United States’ Commitment to Addressing the Root Causes of Migration from Central America.”Gonzalez represents the 15th Congressional District of Texas, Part of the district is on the Texas-Mexico border.“We do not have the resources to deal with 173,000 people who came mostly to my section of the border. It has really overwhelmed us and overwhelmed all our local capacity,” Gonzalez told the hearing.“What I have advocated is to have the same system we have in my district in a very humane, clean, first-class American facility closer to them on the southern Mexico border or the Guatemala border.”Gonzalez said he does not see an end in sight to the surge in migrants seeking asylum.“We are talking about climate migration down the road and maybe other countries down the road. What are we doing in planning long term ideas to be able to help folks closer to home and have these processing centers and maybe refugee settlements, or whatever it is, to help this mass migration that is coming north, further south and to keep them from coming through Mexico? Gonzalez asked Zúñiga.Gonzalez said he and a neighboring congressman calculated that, “just in the last 90 days, cartels have probably been enriched about $1.2 billion just from the migration that has occurred this year, at an average of $6,000 a head that they are charging.”Gonzalez said the United States should have same migration processing procedures it has in his district in place in Mexico and/or Guatemala.“Ultimately, I envisage actually having your asylum hearings in safe zones where we can ensure and guarantee their safety. I think we need to start having out of the box ideas or we are going to continue dealing with this on our southern border,” Gonzalez said.Editor's Note: Go to the Rio Grande Guardian website to read the full story.Editor's Note: The attached podcast features the news conference Rep. Gonzalez held with members of the Problem Solvers Caucus. It was held on the banks of the Rio Grande River at Anzalduas Park, in Mission, Texas.
North Carolina COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations keep rising, but NC is still in better shape than many Southern states. However, the disproportionate number of cases among Latinx/Hispanic communities continues to concern health officials and was the focus of Thursday's coronavirus briefing that included high-ranking leaders from the Mexican and Guatemalan Consulate . BPR's Helen Chickering asked NC Health News founding editor Rose Hoban about numbers, the push in prevention efforts in Latino communities and more during their Friday check-in.
Dr. Jason de León, professor of Anthropology at UCLA, talks to us about the Undocumented Migration Project (UMP), a long-term study of clandestine border crossing that uses a combination of ethnographic, archaeological, visual, and forensic approaches to understand this phenomenon in a variety of geographic contexts including the Sonoran Desert of Southern Arizona, Northern Mexican border towns, and the southern Mexico/Guatemala border. Within the UMP, we discussed Hostile Terrain 94 (HT94), a participatory art project.

An impeachment trial is a rare event in the United States but there is something unprecedented about this one. President Trump's troubles are rooted in his approach to US foreign policy and diplomacy. The president is accused of pressuring Ukraine's president to investigate his political rival Joe Biden and his son, in exchange for US military assistance. The implications of the senate's verdict will be felt far beyond America's borders. Former US ambassador Nicholas Burns says that despite the pressure, diplomats from the US state department have acted courageously and have set a positive example for a new generation of foreign service officers. Also, the death of a US citizen in an Egyptian prison raises questions about US diplomacy; the internet has made cheating by students more digital and more global than ever before, and that has opened up business opportunities in places like Kenya; we look to the Mexico-Guatemala border where a new migrant caravan has been stopped by Mexican security forces; and we compare the cost of maternity healthcare in the US with other countries around the world.

WOLA's Adam Isacson and Maureen Meyer covered nearly 400 miles of the Mexico-Guatemala border during a mid-August visit. Amid a U.S.-inspired crackdown on irregular migration, they saw National Guardsmen, checkpoints and patrols, a nearly collapsed refugee reception system, and thousands of asylum seekers from Cuba, Haiti, and Africa stranded after crossing half the planet. The crackdown, which began in June, has reduced migration but endangered people fleeing violence, while benefiting smugglers and their corrupt accomplices. By assenting to Trump administration pressure, Meyer and Isacson explain, Mexico has assumed the political costs, but has not yet dealt with the humanitarian and social consequences on vivid display in the southern border zone.

Hosts Rania Khalek and Kevin Gosztola interview Todd Miller, the author of Storming the Wall: Climate Change, Migration, and Homeland Security. It was published by City Lights Books in September and was praised by Bill McKibben, Christian Parenti, and Dahr Jamail, who has appeared on this podcast multiple times. Miller traveled to the Philippines, Honduras, Guatemala, the Mexico-Guatemala border, the United States-Mexico border, and Paris. There he observed and met individuals witnessing the escalating impacts of climate change on their communities. He also attended multiple expos or conventions, where people from the security-industrial complex spoke about how they are preparing for climate change—in order to control borders and make profits off future calamities. During the hour-long interview, Miller discusses the "21st Century Border," as well as the concept of "Prevention Through Deterrence"—how countries deter migration by increasing the potential for death. He highlights what he observed in the Philippines and recalls his experience at Milipol, a massive Homeland Security expo he attended in Paris days after ISIS attacked the city and around the time the Paris climate agreement was deliberated over by much of the world.
