Gianno Caldwell, Caldwell Strategic Consulting & Bryan Pruitt, RedState & Ari Rabin-Havt, The Agenda-SiriusXM Progress 127/The Benghazi Hoax all join Thom Hartmann. As the Trump goes, so goes the Republican Party - or at least a good chunk of it. On Sunday - Republican frontrunner Donald Trump finally unveiled his plan to deal with immigration - and that plan is - well - it’s pretty much what you’d expect an immigration plan from Donald Trump to be like. It’s six pages long - and aside from a few suggestions about H1-B visas and e-verify - really narrows down to three things: kick the Mexicans out - build a wall at the border - and end birthright citizenship - the principle by which anyone born on American soil automatically becomes an American citizen.

Mary Sweeters, Greenpeace USA, joins Thom. The president yesterday continued to confuse and anger climate activists and environmentalists by giving Shell the go-ahead to drill for oil in Alaska's Arctic sea. The announcement acomes just two weeks before he's scheduled to go to the Alaskan arctic to speak about climate change. The move is incredibly hypocritical and - in his last years in office - this move adds to what is becoming a very mixed record on the environment and climate change. The fact is though - even with Monday's nod to go ahead with drilling in the Arctic - Shell doesn't expect to start production in the Arctic until 2030. Which means there's a chance that the next president - depending who it is - could scuttle Shell's plans before any wells become productive. And at least one frontrunner has come out against the plan. Hillary Clinton tweeted this morning "The Arctic is a unique treasure. Given what we know, it's not worth the risk of drilling."

Ok - it’s a planetary pun.

Ari Rabin-Havt, The Agenda-SiriusXM Progress 127/The Benghazi Hoax & Vanessa Baden Kelly, Brave New Films both join Thom Hartmann. It's been over a decade since a frightened fervor swept America's reason and the nation's neocons led us to a bloody and costly war in Iraq. And after all that time - they're still drawing out the same old lines.
