Podcasts about Border Patrol

Over the last 25 years, the U.S. government has spent billions of dollars to build a "virtual wall" of video surveillance at the southern border. The network can signal Border Patrol to respond when it detects suspicious activity. And officials have touted the benefit of providing aid to migrants in distress.But a recent investigation by MIT Technology Review and the Times of San Diego found more than 1,000 migrants have died over the last decade within range of one of these cameras. Eileen Guo co-reported the series, “Dying on Camera.”More on this:“The US spent billions on border surveillance. Why can't it catch people before they die?” from MIT Technology Review“A congressional representative just proposed killing America's border tower program” from MIT Technology Review

Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrests reached record highs this summer. And the full scope is just coming into focus. Some 43,000 people were arrested in June, more than 49,000 in July, and almost 51,000 in August —an agency record.The Republican-controlled House of Representatives last June passed a $70 billion package tofund ICE and the Border Patrol through the end of President Donald Trump's second term. As ICE became the best funded law enforcement agency in the country, its tactics changed. Instead of high-profile operations centralized in one location – like the operations in Minnesota, Chicago, and Los Angeles last year – they're focusing on quieter, everyday arrests throughout the country.And more details are being released about a record number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrests of pregnant women last fall.A September report by The Guardian revealed that ICE placed more pregnant immigrants in detention last fall and winter than at any time over the previous year.ICE data from February reveals that 86 pregnant women were in ICE custody — more than 10 percent were detained in their third trimester. Nearly 400 women who were pregnant, postpartum, or nursing were deported from January 2025 to February 2026, according to the Department of Homeland Security.We sit down and get into how pregnant women are being affected by the Trump administration's mass deportation campaign.Find more of our programs online.

Last November, ICE and Border Patrol swept through North Carolina, bringing raids, detentions, and violence to immigrant communities. Workers stayed home, church pews emptied out, and thousands of kids missed school. Nearly a year after that initial crackdown, host Maya Rupert sits down with Siembra NC Co-Director Nikki Marín Baena to talk about her organization's efforts to protect immigrants and the ripple effects they're still feeling today. From ICE verifier trainings to workplace protections, Nikki shares how Siembra is not only building strong communities, but advocating for a government that makes all of our lives better. Marguerite Casey Foundation supports efforts, leaders, scholars, and initiatives focused on shifting the balance of power in government—building power for communities that continue to be excluded from shaping how society works and from sharing in its rewards and freedoms. Its board members, leadership, and staff are committed to building a just economy and fully realized democracy, and to providing unfettered support to the bold strategies and leadership that are required to bring about major change in our lifetime.

As his second term fails and his attacks on the very foundations of effective government becoming ever-more apparent, the morbid symptoms are piling up—Trump's fantastical retreat into building projects, his posting through the A.I. revolution, ongoing obsession with JFK and the Kennedys, and more—we take stock and discuss the perils of this moment, as people who believe in nothing surround a president who knows nothing, and the situation gets desperate.Listen again: "The Kennedy Imprisonment" (w/ Jeet Heer), Nov 17, 2023Sources:"Trump Renames A.I. and Threatens to 'Annihilate' Iran in U.N.

"The foundation of the immigration system and the battles... all of that had been built brick by brick in El Paso, through both Republican and Democratic administrations." —Jazmine UlloaEpisode Description:To much of the country, Interstate 10 reaches El Paso on its way to somewhere else, the city seen as little more than a name on a sign between San Antonio and Phoenix, or as a backdrop for whatever border story dominates the news. Yet its position at a key gap in the mountains, El Paso del Norte, has anchored a pivotal crossroads for as long as people have traversed the continent. The city shares a binational life and generations of family ties with Ciudad Juárez, the older settlement on the southern bank of the Rio Grande. The two have been bound together since long before the U.S.-Mexico War placed an international boundary between them, a boundary whose precise course remained contested for decades.In El Paso: Five Families and One Hundred Years of Blood, Migration, Race, and Memory, New York Times national reporter Jazmine Ulloa returns to her hometown to tell its story through the lives of five families across a century. In that time, El Paso has been a testbed and proving ground for U.S. border and immigration policy, and the lives of its residents chart the complicated motives, successes and failures, from the establishment of the Border Patrol in the 1920s to today's Department of Homeland Security. It is a history worth understanding now, as the biggest shifts in national immigration policy play out most pointedly along the I-10 corridor.The book was inspired by a tragedy. On August 3, 2019, a gunman drove to El Paso from the Dallas area and killed 23 people at a Walmart, and later admitted choosing a border city to dissuade Hispanic immigration. Ulloa, then covering national politics for The Boston Globe, was on a plane home within a day. From the memorial that had sprung up in the Walmart parking lot, she could hear the traffic on the nearby Interstate 10. The sound that had once called her to leave became a reason to return, to understand the place she came from.In this episode, she joins Duke Reiter to discuss what she found, why she considers the comparison between El Paso and Ellis Island imperfect yet useful, and why the Ten Across region is such a revealing lens on immigration. This is where migration, enforcement and the question of who belongs are felt first and most intensely. What takes shape here tends to reach the rest of the country. As Ulloa argues, every city is now El Paso.Relevant Articles and ResourcesEl Paso: Five Families and One Hundred Years of Blood, Migration, Race, and MemoryREPORT: "Border Control: Revised Strategy Is Showing Some Positive Results""Jazmine Ulloa on 'El Paso: Five Families and One Hundred Years of Blood, Migration, Race, and Memory'"Relevant Ten Across Conversations PodcastsKyle Paoletta on American Oasis and the Southwest's Claim on the American StoryTwo Texas Cities Reexamining Data Center Deals, with Robert Moore of El Paso MattersAlternative Visions of the Southern U.S. Border Yesterday, Tomorrow and TodayCreditsHost: Duke ReiterProducer and editor: Bryce CristianoResearch and support provided by: Kate Carefoot, Rae Ulrich, and Sabine ButlerGuest Bio:Jazmine Ulloa is a national reporter for The New York Times.

In This week's update:The Department of Homeland Security has a secretive unit that analyzes your financial habits, cross-references them with license plate data, and passes the results to local police - all without a warrant, all without probable cause, and all without you knowing it happened. They stop you for an obstructed license plate. You don't realize you were actually targeted because an algorithm decided your spending pattern looked suspicious. Flock cameras are now recording 120,000 surveillance feeds across 49 states, and police are using them to track people who haven't committed any crime, just to see where they go and how often they show up in certain places. Your smart TV is collecting data about what you're watching, scanning your home network to identify your other devices, and storing audio even when it's in standby.  LG is saying their TVs aren't spying, but that's doing heavy lifting because researchers found audio logs stored on devices that were supposed to be off. Your Apple Watch now has a microphone that can transcribe nearby conversations without everyone's consent; just a beep and a visual indicator that most people won't understand. Chinese AI companies are harvesting millions of interactions from Claude to steal its capabilities, and they're capturing sensitive government and military information in the process. Anthropic's own AI model gained unauthorized access to the internet, uploaded malware, and then spent 150 pages of a transcript getting frustrated with CAPTCHAs before finally breaking through. The Pentagon is turning Maven into an "everything app" that will eventually handle logistics, budgets, targeting and decisions across the entire Department of Defense. NASA and IBM released open-source tools to map the Moon in unprecedented detail, which is genuinely good news, except it highlights how much we still don't know about what's being mapped here on Earth. A rogue AI managed to hack into a third-party system, steal admin credentials, and modify a system setting to access personal information before running out of tokens. And somewhere, out there, Border Patrol is pulling over Americans based on financial patterns analyzed by secretive prediction teams that nobody can see, nobody can audit, and nobody can challenge.This is a week about the steady, systematic erosion of the boundary between observation and action. Between watching and doing. Between data and decision. It's a week about being watched, not by one camera, not by one company, not by one government, but by a layered ecosystem of systems that don't talk to each other but are all pointed in the same direction: you. Welcome to Watched.Find the full transcript here.

Kathy Hochul said on live television that she wishes ICE would disband, then blamed Donald Trump for defunding the police. At a press conference the New York governor claimed the federal government is withholding 40 percent of the state's counterterrorism money, $87 million, and translated it as Donald Trump defunding the police. Larry O'Connor walks through the vote: not one New York Democrat, not Chuck Schumer and not Hakeem Jeffries, voted to fund the Department of Homeland Security during the shutdown their own party ran at ICE and the Border Patrol. Hochul then goes further on television, calling ICE a rogue agency and saying she wishes it would disband and go back to the old Immigration and Naturalization Service. That is Abdul El-Sayed's talking point, and Larry sets it against the decades when the same coalition called the INS a secret police force, and against Hochul's own campaign stop at a New York mosque. The clip closes on the Times Square stabbing that killed one person and left another hospitalized, and the NYPD officers who ended it after a taser failed.

(Sep 2, 2026) Even though New York is barring local police from collaborating with ICE, other programs, especially here along the northern border, encourage local police and federal border agents to work together, sometimes on immigration matters. We hear about one such program, Operation Stonegarden. Also: The late Labor Day is forcing Plattsburgh's city beach to close early because the lifeguards are going back to shcool.

Tucker Carlson has spent the last few days at the center of a growing split with Donald Trump over Iran and nuclear policy. On his show, Carlson said that any president who seriously considers first use of nuclear weapons should be removed from office immediately, a blunt rebuke that has fueled fresh debate about how far he has moved from the Trump camp and how much influence he still has with the MAGA base. He has also continued to use his platform to host politically charged interviews. One recent conversation featured former Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino, who made explosive claims about threats from inside the Trump administration, while Carlson pressed him on whether officials were trying to silence him. That interview drew attention because it reinforced Carlson's role as a high-profile amplifier of anti-establishment grievances, even as it generated backlash from the White House. Another notable development is Carlson's recent appearance on Russian state media through an interview with former CNN anchor Rick Sanchez, which added to criticism that Carlson is increasingly aligning himself with narratives hostile to U.S. foreign policy. Around the same time, Vice President JD Vance tried to reassure Jewish Republicans that he rejects antisemitism, while notably avoiding any direct break with Carlson, underscoring how politically complicated Carlson remains for prominent Republicans. There have also been renewed discussions about Carlson's broader media influence, especially because he continues to draw large audiences and shape debates on war, immigration, and the limits of political loyalty. Supporters see him as one of the few major voices willing to challenge both parties, while critics argue that his rhetoric is helping normalize extreme positions and deepen divisions inside the conservative movement.

Low Value Mail is a live call-in show discussing current events, politics, conspiracies and much more.Every Monday night at 7pm ETSupport The Show:

Tucker Carlson has spent the past several days at the center of several overlapping fights in politics, media, and law, and listeners are seeing his role shift further from TV host to highly polarizing political actor. On his YouTube show, Carlson recently devoted an episode to the Iran conflict and the prospect of the United States using nuclear weapons. RadarOnline reports that in an August 28 discussion with former counterterrorism official Joe Kent, Carlson said any president who seriously considers first use of nuclear weapons should be removed from office, and he applied that standard to Donald Trump, breaking sharply with his former ally over what he called a red line on nukes. This follows a string of recent episodes, including a war-focused conversation with Harvard professor Stephen Walt about Iran, Russia, China, and the risk of nuclear escalation, highlighted by platforms like rova and Singjupost, where Carlson portrayed Trump's Middle East moves as dangerously destabilizing and the war in Iran as the biggest presidential mistake of his lifetime. Those comments are feeding speculation about Carlson's political ambitions. ABC News Daily recently explored whether he might run for president in 2028, citing his new 10‑point “vision for America” and his meetings with former representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie. The Telegraph characterizes that document as resembling a campaign platform and describes Carlson as positioning himself as a post‑Trump populist willing to “destroy” the current Republican Party in favor of a new movement. Trump, in turn, has escalated his attacks. Yahoo News and RT report that the president used Truth Social to call Carlson, Greene, and Massie “three losers,” saying Carlson is “totally irrelevant” with “very low IQ” and accusing him of plotting a political run that has “no chance.” Pro‑Trump outlets have echoed that line, while Carlson's allies point to his growing online audience and argue that his criticism of Trump over Iran reflects a principled anti‑war stance. At the same time, Carlson is facing legal threats from an old ally. The New York Post and Newsmax segments summarized by the WLT Report describe Rudy Giuliani announcing that he is preparing a defamation suit against Carlson over Carlson's recent interview with Hunter Biden. In that interview, covered by outlets such as the Jerusalem Post and Firstpost, Carlson claimed that people tied to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approached his Fox team years ago with allegations about explicit content on Hunter Biden's laptop and pushed the story into the media. Giuliani, who was central to leaking the laptop material to the New York Post, blasted Carlson for allegedly endorsing Hunter Biden's version of events, accused him of suggesting Giuliani was acting as a foreign agent, and told Newsmax that Tucker “can go to hell.” Giuliani says he is “seriously considering” suing both Hunter Biden and Carlson, arguing that their comments damaged his reputation. Carlson's newer episodes continue to stir controversy on immigration and national security. Media Matters and The Young Turks highlight his recent interview with former Border Patrol official Greg Bovino, where Bovino claimed there are over 100 million undocumented immigrants in the United States and argued that so‑called “run‑of‑the‑mill” illegal immigrants are the real threat to the nation. Carlson framed the conversation as evidence that Trump has abandoned mass deportation promises and suggested the administration is betraying its base, a stance that has intensified criticism from pro‑Trump commentators and energized hardline immigration activists who see Carlson as articulating their grievances. Internationally, Middle East Eye and other outlets have amplified Carlson's high‑profile discussion with former CIA officer John Kiriakou about the influence of the Israel lobby, AIPAC's power, and incidents such as the 1967 attack on the USS Liberty. That conversation, along with his claims about Israeli involvement in the Hunter Biden laptop story, has provoked sharp reactions: critics accuse Carlson of flirting with antisemitic tropes, while his supporters say he is raising long‑taboo questions about U.S.–Israel relations and intelligence operations. Taken together, the latest developments show Carlson simultaneously broadening his media ventures through long‑form online shows and deepening his rift with Trump‑aligned Republicans. He is courting a more explicitly anti‑war, anti‑establishment audience, but at the cost of escalating feuds with Trump, Giuliani, and mainstream conservative outlets, and drawing renewed scrutiny over his role in shaping narratives on immigration, foreign policy, and the Hunter Biden saga.

Tune in here to this Friday’s edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program with Pete Kaliner for this edition of The Hangover as they discuss the debate surrounding AI data centers, water usage and the importance of recycling. Brett and Pete revisit the idea that Earth’s water supply is finite but constantly cycles through different forms, leading to a humorous conversation about whether water used by data centers is actually being “lost.” The pair also reflect on how their generation learned before the internet, recalling encyclopedias, libraries, card catalogs and the Dewey Decimal System as examples of how much more effort it once took to find information. Later Brett discusses the debate over immigration numbers in the United States after a former Border Patrol official claimed that 107 million illegal immigrants are currently living in the country. Brett questions where the figure came from while acknowledging the difficulty of determining exactly how many people are living in the United States, particularly given the number of people who enter through both the southern and northern borders.

Get the “Flock” out of here!With the recent spree of vandalism locally and nationwide that has affected FLOCK surveillance cameras, we delve inside the growing vigilante movement to knock out these Automated License Plate Readers.Tonight, on this explosive, investigative, informative brand-new episode of Light ‘Em Up — like an intense laser beam, we're focusing on Flock Automated License Plate Reading Cameras and this AI-driven technology.  The industry, for short refers to them as ALPRs.It seems like Flock Automatic License Plate Reader Cams are everywhere, on every street and corner.   Big brother is certainly watching you and there doesn't seem to be a damned thing you can do about it!Flock Safety's automated license plate-reading cameras, used by thousands of law enforcement agencies in the U.S., have drawn intense criticism from concerned citizens and civil liberties groups, among others.Are they an unlawful, unconstitutional invasion of your privacy?Can you have and expect any expectation of privacy while you are in public? The argument rages on.Flock Safety is a private company based in Atlanta, GA valued at $8bn that supplies the lion's share of the license plate-reading cameras used by law enforcement departments across the nation.Law enforcement agencies have embraced them, but police departments are not the only customers. College campuses and homeowner's associations have also put up the cameras.More municipalities, both large and small, are budgeting for them. More than 7,000 organizations in the United States have contracts with Flock Safety, according to the company.The proliferation of Flock cameras has divided the public and rattled civil liberties watchdogs.The ACLU argues that the extensive network:—                 constitutes mass surveillance,—                 raises privacy concerns regarding tracking daily habits,—                 and can be used to track people attending protests or religious institutions.How do you feel about your every move being watched and surveilled by the government?Does this fact stress you out or perhaps make you feel anxious?Or do these cameras provide you with a heightened sense of physical safety and security?—                 Do you think these cameras offer any significant crime reduction?—                 Do you feel unease from a loss of privacy?We want to know … you can email us at prizzo7778@gmail.comTell us exactly how you feel about the Automatic License Plate Reader Cameras taking your picture EVERY time you drive down the street:—                 Do you even notice?—                 Do you care?Some say the cameras are a valuable tool to help catch criminals and senior citizens when they wander away from their homes, while critics argue that the information they collect can be misused by the government or rogue law enforcement officers.Several law enforcement officers have been disciplined for misusing data from Flock's cameras, including an officer in Milwaukee who was criminally charged after using camera data to track someone he was dating and the person's ex.We'll examine what the Supreme Court has said about this.—                 Does the government throw a too large and too wide of a dragnet … considering EVERY person to be a suspect?That isn't how the U.S. Constitution works, and it doesn't permit that, either.All people are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law and an officer must possess a reasonable, articulable suspicion of a specific crime that has been committed to briefly stop or detain a person. That kind of stop is referred to as a Terry Stop.We'll examine exactly what Flock cameras are:We'll share with you why they've come under such public fire as they produce a treasure-trove of highly sophisticated surveillance records instantly. Sure, proponents say this helps prevent crime, opponents say the information can be dangerous in the wrong hands and are the tools of tyranny and control.That criticism has intensified as the Trump administration has carried out immigration crackdowns across the nation, fueling concerns about clients sharing license plate information with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other federal agencies.In Washington State, at least seven police departments and one sheriff's office had granted access to the U.S. Border Patrol to their license plate reader networks in 2025, according to an analysis by the University of Washington. An audit by the city of Columbus, Ohio, found that its Flock data had been searched more than 15,000 times for potential immigration-related purposes since 2024.Since the company's inception in 2017, many municipalities have added the popular technology, however as of late more communities have either deactivated the cameras or canceled their contracts with ALPR suppliers because of complaints about mass surveillance and what critics have called a lack of guardrails over who can access the information.This technology is testing the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures, in ways the constitutional framers could never have anticipated.You can register for Flock Safety's SafeList here: How Flock's SafeList Removes Your Car From Camera SearchesFrequently Asked Questions | Flock SafetyListen to our first episode on this topic, here.We speak the truth, protect the vulnerable and always pursue justice.Tune in for all the explosive details and our sponsors Newsly & Feedspot!We want to hear from you!Support the show

New rules for sharing water from the Colorado River are here, and Arizona stands to take the biggest hit. The Tohono O'odham Nation says the Trump administration is sending Border Patrol agents to their tribal lands where contractors are preparing to erect a border wall. The Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix has a special program helping people with memory loss recall happier times. Plus the latest education, business and science news.

There are more than 100 million illegal aliens living in the United States. Donald Trump has no intention of deporting them. Greg Bovino ran the Border Patrol until earlier this year, and saw the betrayal firsthand. Now he says the administration is threatening his life. Gregory K. Bovino is a retired U.S. Border Patrol Chief Patrol Agent and former Commander at Large, where he led major immigration enforcement operations across the country. A nearly 30-year Border Patrol veteran, he previously commanded the El Centro Sector in California and held senior leadership posts in Washington, D.C., San Diego, and New Orleans. He holds master's degrees in National Security Strategy and Public Administration.Paid partnerships with: American Financing: NMLS 182334, nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

The numbers are in and ICE has officially shattered all-time records for deportation arrests, hitting roughly 50,000 in a single month!

His argument is simple and hard to answer. If ICE and Border Patrol were detaining dozens of violent criminals, carjackers, traffickers, members of Tren de Aragua, this administration would put them in front of cameras every single day. It has not done that once. What the cameras show instead are car accident victims, longtime residents, and families. One case Hawk returns to: a sailor serving aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln whose father, here 30 years with a Social Security card, a license, and no criminal record, was detained while his son was deployed. Also today, better news out of Texas, where new polling shows James Talarico leading Ken Paxton in three districts Trump carried. Canadians declining to be polite about the trade war. And Arizona governor candidate Andy Biggs facing questions about a 2013 Colorado City child marriage vote.

Bovino just made a bold accusation — and the White House is furious. Former Border Patrol Commander-at-Large Greg Bovino told Tucker Carlson he believes Trump officials — specifically those surrounding Border Czar Tom Homan and CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott — want him unalived, after his security detail was pulled the moment he left the agency. The White House is calling it "absurd." Plus: Bannon's indictment survives a DOJ dismissal bid, left-wing groups race back to an Obama judge to kill Trump's mail-ballot integrity rule, visa appointments freeze worldwide, the $100K H-1B fee is back in a harder-to-block form, and CNN's own data guy admits Trump is more admired than Reagan and Lincoln.00:00 Trump By Far the Most Admired GOP POTUS02:18 Trump And Most Americans Agree on this!08:39 Judge Blocks Dismissal of Steve Bannon Indictment13:17 EX- TRUMP LEADER CLAIMS ADMIN IS OUT TO UN-ALIVE HIM!28:56 Trump and Marco Rubio's latest VISA IMMIGRATION Moves35:41 NGOs and Obama Judge AGAIN out to undermine SCOTUS

This episode is presented by Create A Video – The owner of a Charlotte bakery that has been virtually beatified by local media and Democrats (but I repeat myself) confronted the former US Border Patrol commander, Gregory Bovino, who was in the parking lot doing a podcast. Manolo Betancur then parlayed the encounter into a press release, speech at City Hall, and an appeal for more support. Bovino led the immigration enforcement action in Charlotte last year - which prompted Betancur to close his bakery. He claims he did it to protect his employees and customers. Bovino says he probably closed because he's employing illegal aliens.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerAll the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com  

This episode is presented by Create A Video – A Charlotte business owner held up as a local hero during the immigration enforcement operation here last year encountered the former Border Patrol commander who led the effort. But when Greg Bovino engaged in the argument with Manolo Betancu, it was evident that the baker from Colombia had only surface-level slogans and could not get any deeper. Despite all of his media interviews over the past year, this is probably the first time he's actually been challenged to defend his opinions.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerAll the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com

Hawk walks through Adam Serwer's Atlantic piece, The See No Evil Supreme Court, and the framework Serwer names the neo Korematsu doctrine: if any non racial explanation for a policy can be constructed, however hypothetical, the racial animus behind it stops mattering legally. Serwer traces it from Trump v. Hawaii through Louisiana v. Callais and the TPS ruling, and contrasts it with Masterpiece Cakeshop, where hostile statements by officials counted for everything. Sotomayor's September dissent is the payoff, and Hawk reads from it. There is also footage circulating of agents in the back of a truck identifying people in traffic by appearance, using language that makes the criteria explicit.

David Waldman brings us to Thursday, by more or less being at the right place at the right time. The Senate has been busy, finalizing a stopgap funding bill to move the shutdown to hopefully a different Senate. They also launched an entire network of fake news and have only begun to hassle Dr. Anthony S. (Science!) Fauci. Greg Dworkin rolled up his sleeve and reached deep into a slimy cyclosporiatic orifice of ex-Twitter and pulled out some fresh polls for you. They're oh so tasty and probably won't make you sick later. Also, some Poindexter is suddenly ahead of Max Miller in Ohio, which is good, as Miller sucks. Remember, vote BLUE no matter… who now? Abdul El-Sayed? Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed? Well… good thing we live in a post-racial... we don't? Oh well, that name thing sure worked against Amir Hassan, who was backed by Donald Woke Trump. Today, the words "El-Sayed" pleasantly roll off the tongue of lots of happy Democrats, and many disgruntled ones too… who all need to pull it together now to make this happen. Will he win? El-Sayed is pulling his weight, let's see his support. What's in a name? Ask Elaine Luria. No, Elise Stefanik… No, Elissa Slotkin. She's the young up and coming… down and going establishment Dem, right? Now Ronald Lauder. That name used to mean something. But now that he's no longer writing it on checks, who cares? Sean Duffy, like his boss, understands that in the media production biz, getting and spending money is the best part of the creative process. Releasing a product only invites criticism, and who needs that? A few months back, Border Patrol stormtroopers shooting their laser guns into the air were able to hit a kid's party balloon yet were able to rack up more fatalities jamming the GPS of a medevac aircraft. More recently, Marine One lifted off without proper permission but luckily did not need to shoot down any passenger jets in order to do so.

Donald Trump has pretty much announced that he'll be interfering in the upcoming midterm elections. We only need to look back to January 6, 2021, when Trump virtually ordered an angry mob to attack the US Capitol after lying to them, convincing them that their election was rigged. He said, 'if you don't fight like hell, you won't have a country anymore, now go to the Capitol and stop the certification - stop the steal!' Trump tried to use that angry mob to stop the certification of Joe Biden's election win and his election loss. So, of course, he is intending to interfere in the upcoming midterms. Why wouldn't he? He got away with it last time!And we've been hearing some recent rumblings from some of Trump's sycophants, about how he might try to use immigration officers - like ICE agents - to intimidate voters at the polls.Glenn sat down with a former Border Patrol agent Jenn Budd. Jenn shared her story about her journey from Border Patrol agent to immigrant advocate, which is what she's doing now. She also shared her concerns about how Trump might try to misuse the powers of immigration enforcement agencies to interfere in the upcoming midterm elections.Jenn is sounding the alarm, and Glenn thinks we would all do well to heed the call. He has said before that justice is a team sport. We all need to be in the game, including in an effort to protect and promote free and fair American elections.Find Jenn on Substack: jennbudd.substack.comFind Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Within the span of a week, federal immigration agents shot and killed two people in Maine and Texas, and another was hit by a truck and killed in Florida after trying to avoid ICE agents. A fourth person recently died in ICE custody after reportedly being denied medication. Their deaths prompted yet another round of questioning as to how federal immigration agents have amassed so much power and so little accountability. This week on The Intercept Briefing, host Akela Lacy speaks with Naureen Shah, of the American Civil Liberties Union, and Nayna Gupta, of the American Immigration Council, on the consequences of allowing the government to build a national policing force that's bringing Trump's war on immigrants into communities across the country.“The $240 billion injection that the Trump administration has given ICE and Border Patrol make these agencies — which already were the largest federal law enforcement agencies — make them far larger than anything that we've seen at the federal law enforcement level,” says Shah. “Their budgets are bigger than that of many, actually most militaries around the world.”“It's not really just about who they're hiring and even the training that they're getting — it's the message that they get all the way from the top,” says Shah. “And of course, the message after the killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good was, you have immunity in the conduct that you're engaged in. It's basically a message of, you're going to get away with it. Don't worry about it.”“The signal from the very top of the administration is unmistakable: Arrest as many people as possible without regard for the actual impact on public safety, without regard for the killings that may result, the harm that results.”Congressional funding for those agencies has outpaced any action on comprehensive immigration reform. And with Republicans pushing to strip voting rights from millions of Americans while campaigning against immigrants, says Gupta, the solution is to neutralize their argument by creating a path to citizenship — a proposal with broad bipartisan support. “There's no question that the immigration enforcement agenda that this administration is pursuing ties to voting rights. Now, the question is, given that, how do we still make sure we're offering solutions and reforms that can be viable and build a broad enough coalition of support to overwhelm that far-right base and the way they've weaponized this issue?” Gupta says. “I think those kinds of conversations are a more effective antidote to the far right's effort to weaponize the immigration system, not only to hurt immigrants, but to hurt core democratic rights like the right to vote.”Full transcript: https://interc.pt/4wk7elzKeep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

Glenn emphasizes the importance of understanding federal laws that prohibit military presence at polls and the need for proactive measures to safeguard our democratic process. With a call to action, he encourages listeners to engage with their state officials and to remain vigilant against any attempts to undermine the integrity of the elections.Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
