ICE Under Trump

The podcast examines the evolution and current state of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), particularly noting changes since the beginning of the Trump administration's second term. It highlights the increased use of National Guard troops and other law enforcement agencies in immigration enforcement, a tactic described as unusually visible and heavy-handed. ICE is averaging over 600 immigration arrests daily, with a stated goal of 3,000 detentions per day, leading to overcrowded detention centers and concerns about due process. The agency's increased funding, totaling $75 billion, raises fears of a shift towards a police state, with potential for militarized agents and checkpoints becoming the norm.
