A Department of Homeland Security inspector general report on border facilities in the Rio Grande Valley was published Tuesday. The strongly worded report found “dangerous overcrowding” at a Texas detention facility that requires “immediate attention and action.” We’ll discuss the report, as well as President Trump’s plans for a major 4th of July parade, which is expected to divert approximately $2.5 million from the National Park Service to cover the cost of the event.

Guests:

Philip Bump, national correspondent, Washington Post

Chris Buckler, Washington correspondent, BBC
