We also discuss President Trump’s plans to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which protects children brought to the U.S. illegally. Grilled seafood can be delicious but intimidating to prepare. During Food Friday, we learn the simplest ways to grill and serve our favorite fish.
