Since returning to office this year, the Trump regime has mobilized the military, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Department of Justice in carrying out mass deportations. Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operate on the frontlines of this expansive web of terrorist tactics played out primarily in Latinx communities and in cities and regions with sanctuary laws. In their Left & the Law segment, Jan Haaken and Mike Snedeker discuss the failures of this racist playbook in the face of widespread and growing resistances and court rulings.
