For years, Mexican judges have come to the University of San Diego School of Law for training. The training is taking on a greater significance as Mexico changes to a system in which all federal judges are elected rather than appointed.

With a second Trump term around the corner, significant policy proposals have sparked widespread concern—from mass deportations to potential tariffs on Mexican imports. These developments, alongside Trump's cabinet selections, have particularly poignant implications for border communities. To delve into these issues and understand the expectations of border commuters, we invited Gustavo Solis, KPBS's Investigative Border Reporter, to join us for a discussion on what might lie ahead.

Almost immediately after Donald Trump won last Tuesday’s election, therapists who specialize in the mental health struggles of immigrants started getting calls.

Trump won a second term on Tuesday with promises to implement an unprecedented crackdown on immigrants. Advocates are taking their word seriously and taking steps to protect vulnerable migrants.

During the Trump era, few issues have received more attention than migrant crime. But it's also been the subject of much misinformation.
