Secretary Noem Visits CA-MX Border

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem made a high-profile visit to the San Diego-Mexico border last week to tout the Trump Administration’s policies cracking down on immigration and drug activity. But her visit comes as national support for federal tactics continue to decline, Congressional Democrats strengthen demands for change, and DHS shut down over the weekend after federal funding lapsed. CalMatters Investigative Journalist Wendy Fry joins Insight to talk more about Noem’s visit, and what it could signify about immigration enforcement across the country and in California.

CalMatters is a nonprofit newsroom that partners with public media stations across the state. 

Investigation into Pregnant Unaccompanied Minors

Mark Betancourt is a freelance journalist for the California Newsroom - a collaboration of public media outlets across the state. He joins us about his joint investigation with the Texas Newsroom, about the Trump Administration sending unaccompanied pregnant minors to a Texas shelter deemed medically inadequate.

Mose Buchele with The Texas Newsroom contributed reporting.

Wine Country Curling Club

Fans of the Winter Olympics are probably familiar with curling, the strategic sport defined by sliding stones and frantic sweeping. For almost 20 years, beginners and curling veterans across the Sacramento region have turned to the Wine Country Curling Club for the chance to get hands-on experience on the ice, including classes at the Skatetown Ice Arena in Roseville. Club President Katie Feldman and curler Lee Ann Shearing talk about how they fell in love with curling, and how interest in the sport continues to grow.
