About this listen

This episode breaks down the recent controversy in Minneapolis after ICE agents detained a 5-year-old and his father while returning from preschool, igniting national outrage and local protests. We also dig into a leaked internal ICE memo showing agents are being instructed to use administrative warrants — not judge-approved judicial warrants — to enter homes, raising serious Fourth Amendment and civil liberties concerns. Legal experts explain why that distinction matters and how courts are already pushing back. Finally, we look at the political response: Republican leaders defending ICE and framing protestors as dangerous or lawless, highlighting the growing divide between immigration enforcement, constitutional rights, and public dissent.
