Border Wall Funding and Tyrannical Elves!

View descriptionShare

Immigration and border security continue to make headlines, there is still no consensus on avoiding a possible government shut down because President Trump is not getting all of the funding for his border wall. The administration also set new policies for asylum seeking migrants where they will stay in Mexico while their claims are being processed. Ted Hesson, Immigration Reporter for Politico, joins us for more on that and a GoFundMe that has been set up for the border wall.  Next, we’re all in the midst of heavy shopping for the holidays and many are turning to Amazon but what’s the first thing you do to vet your items? See how many stars it has and read the reviews. But you have to be careful, there are tons of fake reviews being populated by shady Facebook groups. Joanna Stern, Personal Tech Columnist for the Wall Street Journal joins us for how to spot fake Amazon reviews.   Finally, it’s quickly becoming a Christmas tradition for many – it's Elf on the Shelf. The Elf watches your kids and reports back to Santa, so they better be good, and the next day he pops up in a different location. The problem is, many parents are struggling to keep up and are regretting ever starting the game. My Producer Miranda joins us for the tyranny of the Elf on the Shelf.
