A new budget plan was released on Monday that includes a proposal of $8.6 billion for construction of the border wall. Meanwhile, the long-awaited Robert Mueller report could be published any day, and a new House resolution was passed that broadly condemns hate. Maria and Julio are joined by All-Star Callie Crossley, host of WGBH’s Under the Radar, and Aisha Moodie Mills, political strategist and fellow at the Harvard Institute of Politics, to discuss these latest issues, plus their thoughts on the 2020 Democratic candidates.
