On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss Taco Bell's announcement that it would expand its Live Mas Café platform to an additional 30 locations before the end of the year — and eventually to all U.S. locations. The test at a San Diego location has been so successful that Taco Bell expects beverage could be a $5 billion platform by 2030. So what does that mean for the beverage boom across the industry? Sam and Alicia break it down. Next they discuss the amicable split between McDonald's and Krispy Kreme, which launched in 2022 as the doughnut chain sought to leverage McDonald's 13,000-plus locations as access points for its goods. Sam and Alicia discuss why the partnership was ultimately a failure, and why restaurants should consider prioritizing quality over access on their growth journeys. Then they talk about recent data from Black Box Intelligence that showed that businesses serving large immigrant populations are experiencing sales and traffic declines, citing fears of the Trump administration's mass deportation campaign. Finally, tune in to a conversation between managing editor Leigh Anne Zinsmeister and Applebee's executive director of off-premises Vicki Hormann, held in person at the recent National Restaurant Association Show.

An explosive commentary dives into the unexpected surge in American wages—up 0.8% in April and another 0.4% in May—linking the gains to a mass self-deportation of illegal immigrants, reportedly spurred by Trump-era immigration raids. The host argues that illegal immigration is a tax evasion scheme benefiting elite employers and blames both political parties for selectively enforcing immigration laws. Citing a controversial memo halting workplace raids in agriculture and hospitality, the segment sharply criticizes Trump for yielding to donor pressure and calls for consistent enforcement across all sectors—blue or red.

President Donald Trump yesterday reversed his brief order instructing Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials to stop raids on farms, hotels and restaurants.

On Tuesday, two asylum seekers were arrested at the Portland Immigration Court after they showed up for scheduled hearings. After attorneys from the Portland-based Innovation Law Lab filed habeas corpus petitions on the asylum seekers’ behalf, a federal judge ordered the government to not move them out of Oregon without first providing notice and to wait for at least two days. The Innovation Law Lab is also representing two other asylum seekers who were arrested under similar circumstances at the Portland Immigration Court and who are being detained at the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma, Washington. In recent days, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials have ramped up arrests and deportations at workplaces and courthouses around the nation. Those tactics have sparked a wave of growing protests and clashes with law enforcement in Portland and other cities, including Los Angeles, where President Trump controversially ordered the deployment of the California National Guard and Marines to support federal immigration enforcement in the region. Innovation Law Lab’s legal director, Jordan Cunnings, joins us to share more details about the asylum seekers arrested in Portland and the legal issues surrounding their cases.

In a country that is free and gives people a better life the government has a funny way of showing it. The military style raids on stores, court houses and elementary schools is Un-American. Rather than a coordinated process to find the bad guys ICE raids the places they least likely to be. Make it make sense.
