Texas Standard For October 30, 2018
It’s election season – do you know who you’re casting your ballot for? Are you sure? We’ll take a look at reports of problems with voting machines statewide. And: The White House calls for more than 5,000 active-duty troops to be sent to the border to intercept a so-called migrant caravan, and their mission doesn’t seem so much like backup as a front-line defense. We’ll have the latest. Also: The president announces a plan to end birthright citizenship – can he do that on his own? We’ll take a closer look. Plus: Flares in the field: why oil companies may be underreporting. All that and then some today on the Texas Standard:
