On California farms, ICE raid fears persist — at least half of the state’s crop workers are undocumented. As a result, the farms that grow three-quarters of U.S. fruits and nuts are experiencing worker shortages as harvests begin. In this episode, Trump's immigration policy clashes with the realities of labor-intensive farm work. Plus, growth on the June jobs report may be overstated, lower tariffs are still tariffs, and we check in on the import sector. Every story has an economic angle.
