The San Ysidro-Tijuana border crossing in California, for instance, is the world’s busiest: It’s an entry point to a binational region with a gross annual product of more than $220 billion, according to data from UC San Diego’s Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies. Every day, it is traversed by approximately 63,000 pedestrians, 120,000 passenger vehicles and 6,000 trucks.Fonna Forman of UC San Diego’s Cross-Border Initiative, told me. “We have always believed that the wall, and the border region more generally, is a site of cultural, artistic and architectural experimentation. And in this sense, it is a laboratory for border region development across the globe.”“There is obviously a lot of fear and uncertainty in the border communities in which we work,” Forman told me.

DHS estimates that of the 45 million immigrants who entered the U.S. by air or by sea on tourist or business visas that expired in 2015, roughly 416,500 were still living in the country in 2016. That’s excluding those who entered via land boundaries—DHS did not release that data—so, the total number of visa overstays in 2016 is likely much higher. (By comparison, between 2011 and 2016, at the southern border ranged from 328,000 to 479,000 per year.) Politico

Today on the show, in the wake of Al Franken resigning amidst sexual misconduct allegations people are calling for Trump to do the same. Yes or No? should he? Also how much money do you spend on stuff to cheer yourself up in a year. We as Americans apparently drop a LOT of loot on retail therapy. Funkhouser rethink the amount of money he is spending on roast beef.

The actions of the junior Senator from Wisconsin have caused alarm and dismay amongst our allies abroad, and given considerable comfort to our enemies. And whose fault is that? Not really his. He didn't create this situation of fear; he merely exploited it—and rather successfully. Cassius was right: "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves. Joe"Gunner McCarthy became the most visible public face of a period in the United States in which Cold War tensions fueled fears of widespread Communist subversion.Edward R. Murrow

I know in my heart that nothing I have done as a Senator – nothing – has brought dishonor on this institution. I am confident that the Ethics Committee would agree.Nevertheless, today I am announcing that, in the coming weeks, I will be resigning as a member of the United States Senate.I, of all people, am aware that there is some irony in the fact that I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office Al Franken of Minnesota


"The industry and the broadcasting community have got to get used to the idea that now he’s on 'the list,' " he says. "And I think we will see how this settles over the next few months when this becomes less of a current phenomenon. Keillor is in the very special position and category of being a unique entity in broadcasting. He was an unusual broadcaster, a great storyteller, a very homespun, eclectic kind of guy, and he marched to the beat of his own drummer." Michael Harrison, publisher of the trade journal Talkers Magazine

In his own statement to MPR, Keillor expressed concern that the "country is caught in the grip of a mania" when it comes to reporting sexual misconduct and that he wishes someone would resist. But he was customarily pragmatic, noting, "I expect MPR to look out for itself, and meanwhile, I feel awfully lucky to have hung on for so long."

The country is experiencing a “mania” of harassment claims.“I have my own recollection of events, but I don’t want to take issue with Jon McTaggart’s decision,” he wrote. “I think the country is in the grip of a mania — the whole Franken business is an absurdity — and I wish someone who resist it (sic), but I expect MPR to look out for itself, and meanwhile, I feel awfully lucky to have hung on for so long.” Garrison Keillor
