Episode Details

Federal raids in Minnesota are causing chaos and confusion in the streets. Protestors confronted federal agents at a St. Paul manufacturing plant on Tuesday, and we still don’t know who was detained. Amy Lange and Madeline Lohman from The Advocates for Human Rights help us digest this news. Plus, they explain why judges are dismissing immigrants’ cases, only to be captured by ICE agents waiting right outside the door. It’s Give To The Max Day, and there are hundreds of great orgs who need your support. We’ll name a few of our favorites.
