Phil Boas: Alejandro Mayorkas isn't cutting it as Homeland Security secretary

The Show regularly checks in with the editorial board of the Arizona Republic to talk about current issues facing the state and the region — featured in columns on the newspaper’s op-ed pages.

The Biden administration's border security policies have predictably been criticized by Republicans and conservatives, who cite a growing number of undocumented immigrants crossing into the U.S. But the administration has also frustrated progressives, who have wanted to see better and clearer humanitarian border actions.

Those realities have put Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in the spotlight, and he's the subject of an opinion piece by Republic columnist Elvia Díaz. The Show spoke with Phil Boas of the Republic to learn about Díaz's perspectives.
