Part 1:
We talk with Jeremy Wallace, of the Houston Chronicle.
We discuss Gov. Abbott's decision to NOT grant clemency to Robertson, who was scheduled to be executed for a "shaken baby" death. "Shaken baby" is under scrutiny by researchers, and may not even be a cause. Contrast the clemency granted by Abbott for the murder of an unarmed protestor earlier this year.
We also discuss the ongoing election campaigns of Ted Cruz and his challenger, Allred. Cruz has chosen transgender people as his target of focus, because of many missteps he has made in the past.
Part 2:
We speak with Bill Curry and Susan Milligan, a political writer.
We discuss the upcoming presidential election. We look at the strategy of the Democratic party to attempt to defuse the "border problem" ad defined by the Republicans. We talk about the contributions in work and taxes that immigrants have made, and continue to make. This includes undocumented immigrants. We raise the issue of "fast fascism" as practiced by the Republicans.
