Trump promised to deport violent criminals — something EVERY American agrees SHOULD happen. He DIDN’T say he’d also target legal asylum-seekers… and now, that’s exactly what he’s doing.
Instead of focusing on felons (like himself), Trump is planning to mainstream a new deportation technique developed by shadow president Stephen Miller.
The method dismisses all legal proceedings against an immigrant — which SOUNDS good — until you find out that, with no pending case, ICE can execute an expedited deportation without the threat of having to return them so they can have their day in court.
The Trump administration is planning to use this method to “get rid of” up to 1.45 million people with pending affirmative asylum applications.
Obviously he lied . . . AGAIN! He'd have to know where the criminals live to only deport them. That would take lots and lots of time and manpower to find out. He has no patience for that kind of detail work and since he promised this on day one, he gave himself no time to do this detailed kind of work. So, what happens? EVERYONE who looks like an illegal is being scooped up, families, kids even sick ones and legal people who've been here FOR YEARS!
He has never been the same person as he was before stroke - or at least from my far away few that seems when things changed in his mind… not the same person who ran for office (imo) He is not all there - so makes sense he’d go for MAGA
Thank you, Jim for bringing Ritchie Torres to us. It's good to know their are some young Turks ready and willing to stand up to the old guard and let them know, firmly and succinctly centrist is not the direction we're heading. I'm 92 and I've never been old guard, Like Bernie Sanders I believe in our Constitution.
Especially thankful for Glenn Kirschner. I agree we need term limits for Judges and Justices, I would like 5 year terms for up to 5 terms. I'd also like to see the Supreme Court expanded to 13. There were 13 colonies, 13 original States,13 bars on the flag, 13 Circuit Courts and 13 is a prime number. But, not now. We need to get rid of the maggots first. So, 2029 is the year for change.
You're preaching to the choir. We know all this. What are you going to do about this? I was born in Pelham Parkway so I know Montefiore very well. Jacobi, too. This is an outrage.
wow- I just looked up Congressmen Torres' congressional district while listening to him speaking about the poverty there. This is what I found: "New York's 15th congressional district for the United States House of Representatives is located in New York City, State of New York. The district has been represented by Democrat Ritchie Torres since 2021. It is the poorest congressional district in the United States."! I am shocked! I thought it would be in Mississippi, Louisiana or W Virginia.
People are dying in ICE custody. When will Trump and ICE be held accountable?
Weak government as a whole is allowing this. Spineless!!

This is NOT making America “great.”

Desantis is an absolute moron.
Disgusted with the Supreme Court & the Republicans...
Fetterman is a MAGA - no respect from me!
I absolutely agree , I have called his office many times and to no avail . Sad to say he still has 4 more years 😠
He has never been the same person as he was before stroke - or at least from my far away few that seems when things changed in his mind… not the same person who ran for office (imo) He is not all there - so makes sense he’d go for MAGA
Leavitt is a consistent liar. She's a nightmare!
she's a stepford wife
Absolutely.
Most corrupt & cruel Administration ever!

Great show, Jim, with or without jet lag.

Can Senators be recalled?
I wish !
Jim, I would love to hear your thoughts on the resignation of the University of Virginia president that was reported over the weekend.
Trump is almost as bad as Hitler with this Alligator Alcatraz !
Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney sacrificed their careers. Heroes!
Jim - ask Tillis or Bacon to come on your show! Wouldn’t they be interesting interviews for you?
Michael has it right! Stephen Miller and P2025 are the ones who really want Alligator Auschwitz.
The congressman was a great interview and I really hope this bill fails for his constituents’ well being.
I follow Glenn and am so thankful for his voice on Substack.
The answer is to get rid of trump and then raise the tax for all income over 10 million a year back to 91%. That tax rate built our middle class
