The political theater of Eagle Pass, TX

Many residents of Eagle Pass, Texas, say they’ve had enough. But they’re angry with the Texas Governor, not the migrants crossing the border. They just sent him a letter, accusing his rhetoric of putting the community in danger now that armed militias are actively showing up after hearing the Governor’s words. In this episode of Y’all-itics, a local business owner who’s already sued the state tells the Jasons what life is truly like now on the ground in Eagle Pass. And you’ll learn why Congressman Michael McCaul calls the failed Republican-led effort to impeach the Homeland Security Secretary, who oversees federal border policy, an embarrassment.
