Concentration Camps, Asylum and "The Squad"

We discuss the latest political fight over immigration in US politics and highlight a very under-reported outcome of it all related to changes in asylum for immigrants coming from Central America. Also, Andy's statement on prisons about majority in jail for non-violent crimes is only true for Federal Prison, not State Prisons. There 55% are accused of committing a violent crime. Apologies in advance for the ‘clicking’ you will hear near the end of the episode.
