About this listen

U.S. federal law enforcement, particularly focusing on how agencies like the FBI and ICE are reassigning agents from critical criminal investigations to immigration enforcement. Today, we’ll dive deeper into the implications of this shift, hear from those affected, and better understand the community's concerns about transparency and accountability.
Let’s set the stage with some eye-opening statistics. Did you know that nearly 3,000 agents from the FBI have been reassigned to immigration enforcement? That’s right—approximately 23% of the FBI's total workforce is now focused on immigration duties, and in major cities, that number skyrockets to over 40%. With such a significant reorganization of resources, what do we lose in the process? Former agents have voiced their outrage. One veteran remarked how infuriating it is, stating, "No drug cases, no human trafficking, no child exploitation." These critical issues, which once were at the forefront of the FBI’s mission, now risk being sidelined as agents focus on meeting deportation quotas.
