California Underground

In this episode of the California Underground Podcast, host Phil and co-host Camille welcome journalist Jorge Ventura, who shares his experiences covering immigration and the border crisis. Jorge discusses his gonzo style of reporting, the shift in Latino voting patterns, and the humanitarian crisis at the border, including the tragic stories of migrants. He compares the immigration policies of the Biden and Trump administrations, highlights the role of cartels in drug smuggling, and shares unique stories from migrants. Jorge also sheds light on the impact of illegal marijuana farms in California and his transition to News Nation, where he continues to report on these critical issues. Are you a Californian who feels isolated and alone in your political views in a deep blue state? Feel like you can’t talk about insane taxes, an overbearing government, and radical social experiments without getting a side eye? Then join us on the California Underground Podcast to hear from people just like you.  Original air
