Step inside the world of frontline policing with retired San Antonio Police Officer Ernie Stevens, co‑author, crisis‑response pioneer, and star of HBO's Ernie & Joe: Crisis Cops. In this powerful interview, Ernie shares raw, unfiltered stories from 30 years on the job — from adrenaline‑pumping pursuits to heartbreaking death notifications, bizarre calls, and the creation of one of the nation's most respected police mental‑health units. Host Steve Gould of Things Police See dives deep into Ernie's early days as a young officer, his most intense and terrifying moments, and the emotional toll that comes with serving a major city like San Antonio. Ernie also opens up about responding to officers in crisis, the evolution of de‑escalation, and what policing really looks like behind the scenes. If you're interested in law enforcement, mental health, crisis intervention, or real‑world police stories told without filters, this episode delivers.

I never thought I'd be glued to my screen watching court battles unfold like a high-stakes thriller, but here we are in the thick of President Donald Trump's second term, with legal fights erupting everywhere from federal appeals courts to the steps of the Supreme Court. Just last Friday, a divided panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit upheld the Trump administration's immigration detention policy, mandating that people arrested in the crackdown stay detained without bond, as reported by Reuters journalist Nate Raymond. It's a win for the White House's tough stance on borders, keeping the momentum from earlier victories.Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is buzzing with Trump-related pleas. On February 6, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, in National Association of Diversity Officers in Higher Education v. Trump, vacated a nationwide injunction blocking two of Trump's executive orders targeting what he calls illegal diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in federal grantees and contractors. Chief Judge Albert Diaz wrote the opinion, remanding it to the District of Maryland and signaling these orders might survive scrutiny, according to Law and the Workplace analysis. Employers, especially government contractors, are on notice—DEI initiatives could face real enforcement heat now.Over in immigration again, the Trump team filed an official appeal notice in a Haitian Temporary Protected Status suit, challenging U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes' February 2 ruling that halted the cancellation of TPS for Haitian immigrants, per The Columbus Dispatch's Bethany Bruner. Government lawyers even asked Reyes to pause her order by noon that day, pushing the case toward the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and potentially the Supreme Court itself.Redistricting wars rage on too. The Supreme Court recently cleared new maps for Texas and California—Texas gaining five Republican-friendly House seats, California countering with five for Democrats—yet battles like Louisiana v. Callais over race and the Voting Rights Act continue, as detailed by Washington Examiner's Jack Birle. And get this: Trump's lawyers are petitioning the Supreme Court to toss the 2023 E. Jean Carroll civil verdict against him, arguing in their final brief that the president is too busy running the country to fight old allegations, according to USA Today's Maureen Groppe. The justices will conference on it February 20.Don't forget the bigger picture from the Brennan Center: while Trump was convicted in New York City state court in May 2024 for falsifying business records over hush money to adult film actor Stormy Daniels, three criminal cases linger—federal ones in Washington, D.C., for election interference, Fulton County, Georgia, for the same, and Florida over classified documents. Lawfare's litigation tracker counts 298 active challenges to Trump administration actions on national security, plus 14 Supreme Court stays favoring the feds.Even whispers of impeachment surfaced, with ET Now's February 6 livestream claiming the House of Representatives is deciding Trump's fate—though details remain murky amid the chaos. From Venezuelan TPS revocations paused by the Supreme Court despite U.S. District Judge Edward Chen's rulings in San Francisco, to National Guard deployment blocks in Illinois that Trump ultimately pulled back from Chicago and Portland, these shadow docket moves have real-world bite, as SCOTUSblog explains.It's a legal whirlwind, listeners, with Trump fighting on multiple fronts, courts picking sides, and the Supreme Court wielding quiet power that reshapes policies overnight. Stay tuned as these cases collide toward 2026 elections.Thank you for tuning in, listeners. Come back next week for more, and this has been a Quiet Please production.

Radell Lewis kicks off the Purple Political Breakdown's weekly Ohio midterm election series by diving deep into the 2026 Ohio governor race between Republican Vivek Ramaswamy and Democrat Dr. Amy Acton. With Governor Mike DeWine term-limited, this open seat race is shaping up to be one of the most competitive in Ohio history and Radell breaks down exactly why.In this episode, Radell covers both candidates' backgrounds, character, and policy positions on the issues Ohioans care about most: cost of living, tax cuts, energy costs, job growth, education and the controversial EdChoice voucher program, healthcare and reproductive rights, public safety and crime, corruption and government reform, workers and labor rights, and elder care. He also shares his honest, unfiltered analysis on each issue from deregulation and data centers to why "tax cuts" might be a red herring.Plus, Radell covers critical Ohio news you need to know: the First Energy HB6 corruption trial, the threat facing Springfield's Haitian community under TPS termination, and what to watch as the 2026 primaries approach.Whether you're an Ohio voter looking to get informed or a political junkie following state-level races, this episode gives you the breakdown without the bias.New episodes every Saturday at 8 AM EST.

On this episode of The South Florida Roundup, we went back to the future to discuss Florida's new English-only drivers license test, which in Miami is a historically sore subject — and the subject of a new play that just opened here [1:09]. We also examined what's feeling like a trend: cities in Broward County opting out of law enforcement contracts with the Broward Sheriff's Office [19:22]. And we looked at what's next after a federal judge blocked cancellation of Haitian TPS — and where TPS stands after 35 years [33:12].
The Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for thousands of Haitian families living in Ohio has been temporarily extended. Previously, a federal judge stepped in at the last minute and blocked the Trump administration's attempt to end the TPS agreement.With their protected status still in effect, many Haitians in Ohio can breathe a sigh of relief– for now.But a court battle over the issue will continue. And the temporary stay does not take away the worries about immigration enforcement activity.We're talking about the status of the Haitian community in Ohio and the impact they have on the Buckeye state.Guests:Emily Brown, director, The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law's Immigration Clinic - (00:00)Sophia Pierrelus, entrepreneur/former secretary of the Mouvement Patriotique des Haïtiens Conscients - (17:01)Viles Dorsainvil, executive director, Haitian Community Help and Support Center - (36:17)If you have a disability and would like a transcript or other accommodation, you can request an alternative format.(Photo Credit: Jessie Wardarski / AP)
This week, 330,000 Haitian immigrants who've lived and worked in the U.S. legally, sometimes for decades, were set to lose their immigration protections.That's after the Trump administration announced it would end Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, for Haitians on Feb. 3. After a federal court order on Monday, the program remains in place for now, but could still be undone. The administration says it will appeal the ruling, potentially to the U.S. Supreme Court.What does it mean for Haitians who rely on TPS, who could go from integral parts of their community to undocumented immigrants? Even if they never crossed a border illegally or overstayed a visa?Find more of our programs online.

Today's Headlines: Europe was unusually productive yesterday. French authorities raided Twitter's Paris offices as part of a cybercrime investigation, summoned Elon Musk and former CEO Linda Yaccarino (voluntarily, lol), and announced France is ditching Zoom and Microsoft Teams in favor of its own platform. Spain followed up by unveiling plans to crack down on social media algorithms and hold tech executives personally liable for illegal or hateful content, after Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez accused Musk of amplifying disinformation about Spain's immigration policy. Not to be outdone, Poland's prime minister said Jeffrey Epstein was likely a Russian intelligence asset — and said his government plans to investigate. Back in the U.S., Trump floated the idea of “nationalizing” elections during a podcast appearance and teased more fallout from last week's FBI raid in Georgia, despite elections being run by states under the Constitution. Democrats held a public forum on ICE abuses that Republicans skipped entirely, featuring testimony from people shot at, assaulted, or detained without cause — including a disabled woman who says she was dragged from her car and later treated in an ER for assault. Meanwhile, ICE is reportedly preparing a major operation targeting Haitian immigrants in Ohio as TPS protections expire, even as the agency quietly spends hundreds of millions buying warehouses to convert into detention centers.Elsewhere, DC U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro briefly threatened jail time for anyone bringing a gun into the district before walking it back, Trump continued his Kennedy Center renovation saga, and New York Magazine published a deeply unsettling profile of Rep. Nancy Mace detailing erratic behavior and staff misuse.

Minneapolis journalist reflects on continued ICE operation following deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti All eyes have been on Minneapolis in recent weeks, following the deployment of large numbers of ICE and Customs and Border Protection agents to the area in December. The heightened federal presence has coincided with deadly use-of-force incidents that have ignited national concern, including the fatal shootings of ICU nurse Alex Pretti on Jan. 24 and poet and mother of three Renée Nicole Good on Jan. 7. Those and other deaths, as well as the federal government's handling of the investigations, have become focal points of protests, calls for accountability, and broader debates about public safety and civil liberties. Earlier this week, the "Sound of Ideas" Host Stephanie Haney spoke with Minnesota Star Tribune Opinion Editor Phillip Morris. Morris is also a former longtime columnist for the Cleveland Plain Dealer. He shared what he's been seeing on the ground and his thoughts on the broader political and legal ramifications to come. Wednesday's show will start with that conversation, then we'll turn to Springfield, Ohio, where Gov. Mike DeWine recently warned of a potential ICE operation coming to central Ohio. More than 12,000 Haitian immigrants with temporary legal status were about to see their protections end this week, before a judge delayed that order Monday. Guest: - Phillip Morris, Opinion Editor & Vice President, Minnesota Star Tribune Judge ruling keeps legal protections for Springfield's Haitian immigrants intact Springfield, Ohio is home to a large Haitian immigrant community living with Temporary Protected Status. TPS is a federal designation that allows people from countries facing extraordinary conditions such as natural disasters or ongoing instability, to live and work legally in the U.S. For Haitians, that protection was first granted after a massive earthquake in 2010 and has been renewed several times amid continued political and humanitarian crises, such as the assassination of Haiti's president in 2021. The most recent extension was set to expire on Feb. 3. But on Monday, a federal district judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration from ending TPS. In addition, residents are bracing for a possible ICE enforcement operation reported to begin today. According to the Department of Homeland Security, as of Dec. 16, ICE agents have arrested at least 280 residents in Columbus and the surrounding area, in what has been called Operation Buckeye.

Ces dernières années, la deuxième ville d'Haïti, Cap-Haïtien, a vu sa population augmenter de près de 30 %. La raison : l'arrivée massive de personnes déplacées qui ont fui les violences des gangs à Port-au-Prince et dans d'autres régions. Ces familles sont contraintes de tout recommencer, dans une ville qui n'a pourtant ni les moyens, ni les infrastructures pour les accueillir. De nos envoyés spéciaux à Cap-Haïtien, Franz, chauffeur de minibus, s'apprête à prendre la route vers Port-au-Prince depuis la gare routière de Cap-Haïtien. À bord : quelques passagers, de la marchandise… et beaucoup d'inquiétude. Car pendant les huit heures de trajet, les dangers sont nombreux. « Il n'y a aucune sécurité. Avant même d'arriver au soi-disant péage, des membres de gangs pointent leurs armes sur nous pour nous forcer à ralentir et à payer, s'inquiète Franz. Donc, non, on ne peut pas parler de sécurité. » Et cette insécurité permanente a fait exploser le coût du transport. Il y a cinq ans, un billet Cap-Haïtien – Port-au-Prince coûtait 2 500 gourdes, environ 19 dollars. Aujourd'hui, il faut compter 6 000 gourdes, soit plus du double. Et près de la moitié de cette somme sert à payer les différents groupes armés qui bloquent les routes et l'accès à Port-au-Prince. À lire dans le Journal d'Haïti et des Amériques En Haïti, la fin du TPS inquiète les familles des ressortissants installés aux États-Unis « Les gangs de Mirebalais m'ont forcé à repartir de zéro » Ce sont ces gangs qui ont obligé Franz à quitter sa maison, à Mirebalais, dans le centre du pays. Il y a neuf mois, il est venu à Cap-Haïtien, avec sa femme et ses enfants. « Avant, j'avais mon appartement, j'avais mon entreprise, regrette Franz. Aujourd'hui, on est six à vivre dans une seule pièce. Les gangs de Mirebalais m'ont forcé à repartir de zéro. » Comme Franz, Saradjine Darius a elle aussi fui la violence. L'an dernier, la jeune fille de 22 ans a quitté Port-au-Prince avec sa famille pour venir s'installer à Cap-Haïtien. « Un soir, tout le monde dormait, un voisin est venu frapper à la porte, témoigne-t-elle. Il passait de maison en maison pour prévenir que des bandits avaient envahi la zone. On a réveillé les enfants en pleine nuit, pris quelques affaires et on est partis. » Le défi de la gestion des déchets L'arrivée massive de personnes déplacées depuis deux ans représente un défi immense pour Cap-Haïtien. Alors que la ville croulait déjà sous les déchets, leur volume a doublé en deux ans. « Là, maintenant, avec la surpopulation, on a des constructions anarchiques partout, explique la mairesse Angeline Bell. Il y a aussi les constructions sur les ravines, les constructions dans les montagnes et donc, à cause de cela, quand il pleut, tous les débris, peu importe si on nettoie ou pas, descendent dans la ville. » Ces dernières années, Cap-Haïtien est devenue une ville-refuge. Tant que la situation à Port-au-Prince et dans d'autres régions du pays ne s'améliorera pas, les déplacés continueront d'affluer dans une ville déjà saturée.

Organizations across Ohio have been preparing for a possible surge of ICE activity related to the Haitian community in central Ohio and Springfield. A federal judge issued a last-minute reprieve blocking the Trump administration's attempt to end temporary protected status for thousands of Haitian immigrants in the U.S. Having their TPS status extended is welcome news for many Haitians, but it does not take away the worries about immigration enforcement activity.Local groups labeled as ICE Watch are gathering community members to spot ICE presence, and advocacy groups are holding protests and trainings. We will hear from leaders and professionals about how these groups are training protestors and educating immigrants on their rights in case of an ICE encounter.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled that the Trump administration illegally stripped Temporary Protected Status from Venezuelans and Haitians, finding that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem overstepped her legal authority. Judges said federal law does not allow DHS to undo or erase TPS protections once they have been lawfully granted. The court set aside the administration's actions under the Administrative Procedure Act, leaving hundreds of thousands of immigrants protected and able to work, remain with their families and avoid deportation.

Les images ont sidéré une partie du monde : Nicolas Maduro menotté, lunettes noires sur le nez, enlevé à l'issue d'une opération militaire américaine en pleine nuit, à Caracas. Un mois plus tard, jour pour jour, c'est désormais Delcy Rodriguez qui est au pouvoir au Venezuela, nommée présidente par intérim et soutenue par Washington. Pour parler de ce qui a changé depuis pour les Vénézuéliens, RFI reçoit Yoletty Bracho, enseignante-chercheuse en Sciences politiques à l'Université d'Avignon. « Au Venezuela, les gens éprouvent des sentiments contradictoires entre espoir face à certaines décisions comme la libération de prisonniers, et inquiétudes et incertitudes au sujet de l'avenir économique et politique du pays », explique-t-elle. « Toute la question est de savoir si l'intérêt des Vénézuéliens va être pris en compte », interroge Yoletti Bracho. Une partie de la réponse se trouve dans l'évolution future de la relation avec les États-Unis. Pour l'instant, ils continuent de brandir la menace militaire pour obtenir ce qu'ils veulent des autorités vénézuéliennes. « Le gouvernement agit sous la menace étasunienne mais il profite aussi de cette opportunité pour se maintenir au pouvoir. D'autres acteurs, des membres des oppositions notamment, sont mis de côté. De ce point de vue-là, on ne peut pas encore parler d'une transition, mais plutôt d'une transformation en cours », décrypte la chercheuse. « L'impérialisme américain prend appui sur l'autoritarisme du régime. Reste à voir si les Vénézuéliens vont réussir à pousser par le bas pour qu'on en parle de démocratie. » L'expiration du TPS des Haïtiens bloquée Comme tous les mardis, nous faisons le point sur l'actualité haïtienne avec le directeur de l'agence Alterpresse, Gotson Pierre. Il revient sur le sursis accordé par une juge étasunienne aux Haïtiens au sujet du TPS. « C'est un ouf de soulagement en Haïti aussi car de nombreuses personnes vivent grâce au soutien de leurs familles installées aux Etats-Unis », explique le journaliste. Autre sujet à la Une d'Alterpresse : la situation sécuritaire. À l'approche de la fin du Conseil présidentiel de transition, samedi 7 février 2026, les autorités ont mobilisé la police car « elles craignent des troubles sur fond de désaccord entre les partis politiques sur la future gouvernance du pays », détaille Gotson Pierre. L'heure du dialogue entre Donald Trump et Gustavo Petro Le président colombien n'arrivera pas les mains vides à la Maison Blanche. Il va offrir à Donald Trump une corbeille en osier contenant du café et des chocolats, nous apprend El Tiempo. Café et chocolat produits par des familles de paysans qui ont renoncé à la culture de la coca. Car évidemment, le trafic de drogue sera au menu de l'entretien. Gustavo Petro veut convaincre son homologue américain qu'il en fait assez, explique le journal qui rappelle que les États-Unis ont retiré à la Colombie sa certification en matière de lutte anti-drogue et ont imposé des sanctions à Gustavo Petro. C'est d'ailleurs grâce à un visa spécial délivré par Washington que le chef d'État a pu voyager, indique El Tiempo. Un permis de séjour de 5 jours, pas plus, précise El Espectador. Les deux hommes parleront également du Venezuela. Un sujet sur lequel ils ne sont pas d'accord. Comme le souligne El Espectador, Gustavo Petro « estime que le dictateur déchu Nicolas Maduro est séquestré et qu'il doit être libéré ». Des propos qu'il a répétés la semaine dernière, ajoutant que l'ancien homme fort du Venezuela doit être jugé dans son pays. « Il ne peut pas s'empêcher de provoquer Trump, même quelques jours avant leur rencontre », s'inquiète le New York Times. Inquiétudes partagées par les conseillers de Gustavo Petro et des experts qui redoutent que la rencontre ne se déroule pas bien. Les deux hommes sont « imprévisibles (..). Ils ne suivent pas les scripts et sont aux antipodes idéologiques », acquiesce El Tiempo. En plus, insiste le New York Times, « Donald Trump a l'habitude de tendre des pièges aux dirigeants dans le Bureau ovale et Gustavo Petro est connu pour provoquer et pour s'emporter facilement. » Bref, comme le résume le quotidien étasunien lors de cette rencontre, « tout peut arriver », d'autant que Gustavo Petro a son avenir politique en tête. Il sera intéressant de « voir si Gustavo Petro se comporte en président ou en militant », décrypte Maria Jimena Duzan, journaliste colombienne. À quelques mois de la fin de son mandat, il pourrait être tenté de « cultiver son image de champion international des causes progressistes », approuve l'un de ses anciens ministres interrogé par le New York Times. « Gustavo Petro pourrait être tiraillé entre cette ambition et la nécessité de faire preuve de retenue pour se tenir, lui et la Colombie, hors du champ de vision de M. Trump », conclut le journal. En Argentine, désormais, toute la presse parle de la démission du président de l'Institut national des statistiques. Cela faisait six ans que Marco Lavagna dirigeait l'Indec, rappelle le Buenos Aires Times. Le fils de l'ancien ministre de l'Économie a claqué la porte hier (lundi 2 février 2026) car le gouvernement a décidé une nouvelle fois de décaler l'entrée en vigueur de la nouvelle règle de calcul de l'inflation. Comme l'explique Clarin, Javier Milei et le ministre de l'Économie veulent attendre que les prix aient fini de baisser afin que l'opposition ne les accuse pas d'avoir manipulé l'indice en changeant la méthodologie. Problème, de nombreux indicateurs économiques sont si ce n'est faux, du moins sujets à caution en Argentine, explique le journal de gauche Pagina 12. Marco Lavagna voulait mettre dans l'ordre dans tout cela et doter le pays de statistiques fiables. Le journal de la 1ère En Guadeloupe, les délinquants routiers sont dans le viseur des autorités.

President Trump is revoking Temporary Protected Status from Haitians in the United States, putting them at risk of deportation to a country experiencing unprecedented violence and a political crisis. Macollvie Neel, special projects editor at The Haitian Times, discusses the looming uncertainty for the hundreds of thousands of Haitians who will be affected.

À la veille de la date d'expiration du TPS, le statut de protection temporaire dont bénéficient notamment les migrants haïtiens aux États-Unis, l'inquiétude est totale en Haïti. Aux yeux de nombreuses familles en Haïti, la situation catastrophique dans le pays ne permet pas le retour de leurs proches installés aux États-Unis. Elles espèrent donc un renouvellement du TPS, ce programme états-unien qui permet à des ressortissants de pays en crise de vivre et de travailler légalement sur le territoire. Pas moins de 350 000 Haïtiens en bénéficient depuis des années. Sa suppression serait aussi un coup dur pour celles qui dépendent largement des transferts d'argent de leurs proches à l'étranger. D'autres citoyens dénoncent le laxisme des autorités haïtiennes qui n'ont entrepris aucune démarche auprès des dirigeants américains afin de trouver une entente. Un reportage de notre correspondant à Port-au-Prince, Peterson Luxama. Victoire de la populiste Laura Fernandez au Costa Rica Au Costa Rica, la candidate du parti conservateur Laura Fernandez a remporté l'élection présidentielle dès le premier tour. Une large victoire qui fera d'elle la deuxième femme à diriger le pays. Cette victoire, rappelle Clarin en Argentine, la politologue de 39 ans la doit à sa promesse de fermeté contre la criminalité et l'insécurité, les principales préoccupations de la population. Car le Costa Rica, longtemps considéré comme l'un des pays les plus sûrs du continent, est devenu une plaque tournante du trafic de drogue. Alors pour y remédier, Laura Fernandez entend s'inspirer de son homologue salvadorien Nayib Bukele, avec la construction d'une méga prison. Mais le modèle Bukele peut-il fonctionner au Costa Rica ? C'est La Nacion, le principal quotidien du pays, qui s'interroge. « Le modèle Bukele repose sur le contrôle total de l'Etat », écrit le quotidien. Mais, rappelle-t-il, « au Salvador, les régimes dictatoriaux ont toujours été la règle, et les gouvernements démocratiques, l'exception ». Au Costa Rica, c'est l'inverse. « Pour qu'au Costa Rica, une méga-prison puisse fonctionner comme au Salvador, sans que l'on sache qui y entre et pourquoi, écrit La Nacion, il faut se passer du système judiciaire et que le pays vive sous un décret d'exception, avec les garanties constitutionnelles suspendues et les médias persécutés et harcelés. » La suspension des garanties constitutionnelles, c'est justement ce que Laura Fernandez prévoit dans les districts à forte criminalité. Mais ça n'inquiète pas ses partisans. Et surtout pas Marianela Moreno, une dame de 76 ans, que le New York Times a rencontrée. Elle en est sûre : « L'intention n'est pas de créer une dictature, mais plutôt d'avoir plus de pouvoir pour changer les lois. » Promesse d'amnistie au Venezuela Au Venezuela, la présidente par intérim Delcy Rodriguez promet une loi d'amnistie générale. Une bonne raison de se réjouir pour les quelque 700 prisonniers politiques toujours incarcérés et leurs familles. Mais pas pour El Nacional, qui écrit : « L'amnistie, lorsqu'elle est proposée pour “corriger” une injustice créée par l'État lui-même, risque de normaliser l'arbitraire antérieur, en déplaçant l'attention de l'illégalité des arrestations vers la prétendue magnanimité du libérateur. » TalCual, de son côté, titre sur « Le double D qui nous gouverne ». Car cette promesse d'amnistie a été faite sous la pression des États-Unis. Et elle s'ajoute à celle d'une ouverture du secteur pétrolier aux entreprises états-uniennes. « La révolution apprivoisée s'allie à l'empire, constate ainsi le journaliste Gregorio Salazar dans la rubrique Opinions du journal. Leurs objectifs coïncident étroitement, bien que pour des raisons très différentes. » L'auteur voit dans cette relation l'occasion pour le chavisme « de prolonger son régime totalitaire ». « La nouvelle manne financière dont il bénéficiera, pronostique Gregorio Salazar, sera utilisée comme une baguette magique pour renouer avec la population grâce à la santé et à l'alimentation. » Menace sur les midterms Aux États-Unis, les élections de mi-mandat prévues en novembre sont déjà en péril, s'alarme le New York Times. « Ce n'est pas un exercice », titre le quotidien new-yorkais. Et pour appuyer sa démonstration, il nous invite à faire preuve d'un peu d'imagination. Alors imaginons : nous sommes le 30 octobre 2026. L'ICE poursuit ses opérations anti-migrants en toute impunité, en se basant sur l'apparence ethnique. Résultat : les électeurs non-blancs n'osent pas s'approcher des bureaux de vote. Ceux qui possèdent un nom à consonance étrangère ne peuvent même pas voter par correspondance parce qu'ils ont été rayés des listes électorales. Dans le même temps, la base Maga continue à se radicaliser. Sa colère est attisée par les propos complotistes de Donald Trump qui accuse le parti démocrate d'être une organisation criminelle. « Ce qui est horrible, écrit le New York Times, c'est qu'aucun aspect de ce scénario n'est tiré par les cheveux. Il se produit déjà en partie. » Et pour s'en convaincre, il suffit d'aller lire la suite sur le site du journal. Au chevet du système de santé équatorien En Équateur, le système de santé s'effondre. Et même s'il a fait de la lutte contre la délinquance sa priorité, le président Daniel Noboa s'en est bien rendu compte, puisqu'il a nommé la vice-présidente Maria José Pinto à la tête du ministère de la Santé. Mais certains estiment que le système de soins doit être largement refondé. La semaine dernière, on écoutait sur RFI le calvaire des patients. Ce lundi, parole aux docteurs et aux spécialistes équatoriens. Un dossier signé Eric Samson.
It's pretty disheartening to look back at the date of the last proper TPS session. May 2024. Truth is I did fall off. I let life get the better of me and blamed it on a whole bunch of shit. In April of 2025 I had surgery to remove an organ which for months before and after left me feeling anxious. That anxiety made it impossible to sit in my own company and do the work that creates these shows. I tried to distract myself by being around the wrong sort of people and attempted to numb out the negative feelings with substances until it all backfired. The combination of this and the ongoing health issue put me in hospital several times. The moral of this is that life is incredibly delicate and making the wrong choices can strip you of everything. I am so incredibly grateful to have my health & mental wellbeing back in check and to be able to work and create these sessions once again. Shout out to my friends and family who supported my though my bullshit and all the fans of TPS who stuck around despite the absence. With that though TPS is back for 2026 and plans are set for a full 12 months of guest. Starting things off thick with Buffalo based ENOKALYPSE who is part of the legendary Phonk Around & Find Out roster. We connected over two years ago and discussed getting this show together but it's finally here. The first guest mix and interview of the year and it went incredibly well. What should have been a 30 minute interview turned into a 3 hour recording. What started out as a chat ended in a friendship, sounds cheesy that but for real. His catalog of music is absolutely massive and stacked with bangers, along with collabs with so many heavy hitters like Von Storm, 120seven, Sheltr, Berrymane & many more. Hopefully get to meet him in the flesh this year as I am planning a trip to the US for a certain special wavy festival... So thank you once again for bringing yourself here and taking the time to enjoy these shows. I hope you find some new music today or just enjoy classics blended to perfection. It really is a blessing to be back.

Docket Alerts:Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard led a raid on the Fulton County Election Hub and Operating Center in Atlanta. ProPublica got the warrant. Mo Ivory, a Democratic commissioner for Fulton County, breaks it down on Instagram.In Chicago, Marimar Martinez has moved to unseal evidence from DOJ's failed effort to prosecute her for getting shot by ICE.Reuters reports that Marcos Charles, the top official in ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations division, issued new guidance instructing ICE to target only immigrants who have been arrested or convicted of crimes. This would be a huge improvement, but DHS won't comment.Main Show:Once again, this is all the Supreme Court's fault. Specifically, its rulings in J.G.G. v. Trump and Trump v. CASA led directly to the mayhem in Minnesota. First the Court forced immigrants challenging their detention to file thousands of individual habeas cases. And then they drastically limited the power of federal judges to issue relief when it “discovered” that nationwide injunctions are illegal. The Trump administration took this as an invitation to break the law, irrespective of how many courts tell them not to, on the theory that CASA means precedent doesn't count any more. DHS dummied up a memo saying that actually everyone without a green card must be held indefinitely. This is a gross misstatement of the law, as literally hundreds of courts have already ruled. But the Trump administration says because of CASA, they can continue to lock up people who've lived here for decades, checking in with DHS, working, paying taxes, and taking care of their families.Judges are deluged with habeas petitions, which differ from each other only in the particulars of the cruelty being visited upon the individual immigrant. After ICE failed to obey a court order to release a habeas petitioner, Chief Judge Patrick Schiltz in the District Court of Minnesota ordered Todd Lyons, the Acting Director of ICE, to either release the guy or show up and explain why he shouldn't be held in contempt of court. ICE released the petitioner, but Judge Schiltz was still furious. He published a list of 96 violations of court orders in January alone — and that's only in Minnesota! Thanks, Chief Justice Roberts!On the plus side, Judge Schiltz's colleague Judge John Tunheim issued a TRO ordering ICE to release every refugee detained under the erroneous memo and quit kidnapping them and spiriting them away to Texas.And for subscribers, we'll discuss the Ninth Circuit's ruling that bars Kristi Noem from unilaterally canceling temporary protected status for a million Venezuelans and Haitians.Hundreds of judges reject Trump's mandatory detention policy, with no end in sighthttps://www.politico.com/news/2026/01/05/trump-administration-immigrants-mandatory-detention-00709494Fulton County Election Hub Warranthttps://www.documentcloud.org/documents/26513986-1-28-26-fulton-warrant/Marimar Martinez Motion to Unsealhttps://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.ilnd.487595/gov.uscourts.ilnd.487595.100.0.pdfExclusive: ICE officers in Minnesota directed not to interact with 'agitators' in new ordershttps://www.reuters.com/world/ice-officers-minnesota-directed-not-interact-with-agitators-new-orders-2026-01-29/J.G.G. v.

This Day in Legal History: Hitler Appointed ChancellorOn January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany, a moment that marked the beginning of one of the darkest legal and political transformations in modern history. Contrary to popular belief, Hitler did not seize power in a coup; his rise was accomplished through entirely legal means under the Weimar Constitution. Once in office, the Nazi regime moved swiftly to erode civil liberties, beginning with the Reichstag Fire Decree, which suspended constitutional protections like freedom of speech, assembly, and due process. This decree, signed by President Hindenburg, gave the government extraordinary powers under the guise of national emergency.Shortly thereafter, the Enabling Act of March 1933 granted Hitler the authority to enact laws without the involvement of the Reichstag, including laws that violated the constitution itself. The judiciary, instead of serving as a check on executive overreach, largely complied or cooperated, enabling legal persecution of Jews, political dissidents, and other marginalized groups. Laws were passed systematically to isolate, disenfranchise, and ultimately exterminate entire populations, all with the appearance of legality and bureaucratic order.What happened in Germany is a stark reminder that authoritarianism often arrives wrapped in the language of law and order. The rule of law is not inherently just—it depends on who writes the laws, how they are enforced, and whether constitutional checks are robust enough to resist consolidation of power. Today, as various democracies grapple with executive overreach, politicized judiciaries, and emergency powers, the legal path taken in 1933 offers a chilling historical parallel. The slow erosion of legal norms, once set in motion, can be devastatingly hard to reverse.A federal appeals court ruled that the Trump administration unlawfully ended Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for roughly 600,000 Venezuelans living and working in the United States. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with a lower court that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem exceeded her authority by terminating protections that had been extended under the Biden administration. The court emphasized that, since Congress created TPS 35 years ago, no administration had claimed the power to cancel a country's designation while it remained in effect. Judges found that the statute's language clearly limits executive authority and does not permit unilateral termination mid-designation.Despite the ruling, the decision will not immediately restore protections because the U.S. Supreme Court has allowed the policy to remain in effect while the case continues on appeal. The court noted that the termination has left hundreds of thousands of migrants in fear of detention, deportation, and family separation, often to countries where they previously faced violence. The ruling also upheld a finding that TPS protections for Haitians were unlawfully ended, though the administration has pursued separate efforts to terminate those protections. One judge wrote separately to argue that the policy was influenced by racist stereotyping, citing public statements by senior officials about Venezuelan and Haitian migrants. Advocacy groups welcomed the ruling but stressed that, because of the Supreme Court's order, affected migrants remain vulnerable in the meantime.Trump administration unlawfully ended Venezuelans' legal status, US court rules | ReutersA significant wave of attorneys has left the U.S. federal government since Donald Trump returned to office, fueling a major shift in the legal workforce. Between January and November 2025, over 8,500 licensed attorneys exited federal service, leading to a net loss of 6,524—one of the sharpest declines in decades. The Department of Justice (DOJ) was especially affected, with notable departures from its Civil Rights Division and Federal Programs Branch, and the closure of its Tax Division. Some resignations were linked to policy disagreements, while others were the result of force reductions or shifting departmental priorities.This exodus has dramatically reshaped the hiring market for large law firms. In 2025, top-grossing firms hired over 1,100 lawyers directly from government positions, more than doubling the rate seen in prior years. Recruiters report a flood of interest from government attorneys, many of whom began reaching out even before Trump's inauguration. However, while high-ranking officials and prosecutors remain in demand, lower-level attorneys without niche skills are facing a tougher private market.The overall federal workforce, not just lawyers, has contracted significantly under Trump's renewed efforts to reduce government size. The DOJ alone has seen a net loss of nearly 9,000 employees. While the number of federal lawyers remains close to 2017 levels, the recent surge in departures marks a striking reversal of long-standing hiring trends.Lawyers leaving US government drive workforce shift | ReutersMassachusetts Governor Maura Healey has proposed legislation that would block other states from deploying their National Guard troops into Massachusetts without her approval. The move comes in response to President Donald Trump's controversial use of the National Guard in 2025, when troops from various states were sent to cities like Chicago and Los Angeles without consent from local governments—breaking with long-standing norms regarding domestic military deployment.Several states already have similar laws, designed to prevent out-of-state Guard deployments unless coordinated through mutual agreement or in federally controlled situations. However, legal gray areas remain when the federal government asserts control over state troops. Last year, the Trump administration attempted to deploy federalized National Guard units from California and Texas to assist immigration enforcement in Portland, Oregon. That effort was met with lawsuits from state officials, who claimed no valid emergency justified the action; the troops were withdrawn before the legal battle concluded.Healey's bill aims to reinforce state sovereignty over such deployments and to guard against federal overreach in the absence of local consent. The National Guard is typically used across state lines only in emergency situations like natural disasters, and even then, usually with approval from affected states.Massachusetts bill aims to block National Guard deployment from other states | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.This week's closing theme is the Lacrymosa from Mozart's Requiem in D minor, a work shrouded in both mystery and mourning. Mozart began composing the Requiem in 1791, the final year of his life, and died before completing it—adding an eerie depth to a piece already suffused with sorrow and transcendence. The Lacrymosa movement in particular is a haunting meditation on grief, built around the Latin text “Lacrimosa dies illa” (“That tearful day”), which describes the final judgment and the weeping of the soul.The music swells with mourning, yet carries within it an unmistakable dignity—grief not as chaos, but as reckoning. Today, as we reflect on events that echo the legal and moral breakdowns of the past—and resound in the present—the Lacrymosa feels like a fitting elegy. It reminds us that great tragedy often begins under the guise of order, and that mourning is not only for the dead, but for the living systems and values that can perish when unchecked power takes root.Mozart, though apolitical and far removed from the 20th century, composed music that reaches across time to articulate the emotional weight of collective loss. The unfinished nature of the Requiem also mirrors the historical unfinished business of justice—how societies reckon with their past, or fail to. This piece, suspended between the sacred and the human, between hope and despair, offers a solemn moment of reflection as the week closes.Without further ado, the Lacrymosa from Mozart's Requiem in D minor – enjoy.

On this episode of The South Florida, our show came to you live from the Little Haiti Cultural Complex in Miami, where we devoted the program to the immigration crisis facing our large and important Haitian community. Tuesday, Feb. 3, may see the cancellation of the Temporary Protected Status, or TPS, that has shielded more than 350,000 Haitians from deportation to Haiti — that is, back to a country that's been rendered dystopian by the chaos of violent gang rule. Does Trump have a case? Or will the U.S courts block him?
In line with President Trump's broader crackdown on immigration, the administration has moved to end the Temporary Protected Status program for certain countries including Venezuela and Haiti. TPS has allowed immigrants from countries with unsafe environments to temporarily live and work legally in the United States for decades. On today's show, Marketplace's Elizabeth Trovall joins Kimberly to share her recent reporting on Haitian care workers in Florida who will soon lose their legal status and the wider impact it could have on the U.S. economy.
