Why Border Patrol detained tourists and green-card holders

Play

U.S. Customs and Border Protection apprehended and deported valid visa and green-card holders over the past few months. Newsweek reports that among them was a doctor from Brown University’s medical school. Business Insider says the administration’s hardline immigration policy and trade war are scaring away tourists.

Trump invoked a wartime law to deport hundreds of migrants allegedly affiliated with a Venezuelan gang over the weekend. NBC News reports that a judge blocked the law’s use, but not before the deportations had already taken place.

The Washington Post’s Meagan Flynn explains how the congressional spending bill could have broad impacts on Washington, D.C.

Plus, deadly weather claimed the lives of dozens of people across the country, the U.S. carried out airstrikes against Houthi rebels, and the NCAA men’s and women’s basketball tournament brackets are set.

Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.
