Summary

Mexico has handed over 26 high-ranking cartel members to the United States on Tuesday as part of a deal with the Trump administration to properly address the threat of criminal groups smuggling drugs over the border. Back in February, President Trump signed an executive order that designated six different cartels as a foreign terrorist organizations. Texas Congressman Tony Gonzales (R-TX) joins to discuss the situation at the border and Texas Democrats who've fled the state. Some college students are already getting settled into their dorm rooms to begin college while prospective students are awaiting their admissions letters. The future of college education may look different, as the growing challenges of getting accepted may stem from an increasingly saturated application environment. Jeff Selingo, author of Who Gets In and Why: A Year Inside College Admissions, joins the podcast to stress the importance of prioritizing the right fit over prestige and what factors prospective students should really consider when it comes to their higher education. Plus, commentary from the host of “The Big Ben Show,” Ben Domenech. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
