    There was light violence outside of a Donald Trump rally in Albuquerque, New Mexico this week. Some of the protesters were waving a Mexican flag. Is that OK? Gustavo Arellano, editor of the OC Weekly and author of the syndicated column ¡Ask a Mexican!, says it is. We also discuss, as Josh Barro describes it, the "sad, sad politicians who endorse Donald Trump," despite their earlier critiques. The State Department Inspector General finds that Hillary Clinton's email practices posed "significant security risks." Does this change anything? And states are suing the Obama administration over transgender bathroom use.

    Josh Barro (Business Insider) moderates from the Center. Rich Lowry (National Review) is on the Right. On the Left, Dahlia Lithwick (Slate.com). Gustavo Arellano (OC Weekly and¡Ask a Mexican! syndicated columnist) is our special guest.
