    Ep. 37 | From 9/11 to Now: ICE, Surveillance, and the Rise of the American Security State
    Feb 5 2026
    Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has expanded dramatically since 9/11, reshaping U.S. immigration enforcement, surveillance, and detention policy in ways most Americans rarely see. Jordan Ryan examines how ICE has evolved and what its current operations reveal about the modern American security state. This episode breaks down common myths about immigration enforcement, explores the realities of ICE raids and detention practices, and highlights documented cases of mistaken identity, prolonged detention, and the treatment of children and families. Jordan also discusses ICE’s deadliest year on record, mounting human rights concerns, and the agency’s growing relationships with surveillance and data-driven technology partners. Placing these developments in historical and political context, the episode challenges listeners to look beyond partisan narratives and consider what today’s policies signal about the future of immigration, civil liberties, and state power in the United States.
