Today's episode dives into the explosive political and legal firestorm in Minnesota: amid the federal immigration enforcement Operation Metro Surge, the Justice Department has issued grand jury subpoenas to Gov. Tim Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, Minnesota AG Keith Ellison, and other Democratic officials as part of a federal probe into whether local leaders obstructed ICE and other agents — less than two weeks after an ICE officer fatally shot Renée Good in Minneapolis, a killing the DOJ has declined to investigate criminally even as protests and criticism grow. We'll break down the Justice Department's tactics, the political backlash, and the drama over who's being targeted — plus cue up key video moments including local law enforcement detained by ICE, Bovino defending ICE's actions, and President Trump calling Good's death a "tragedy" while saying ICE will "make mistakes."

One year into Trump's return to power, we open with a look at how presidential authority is being tested and expanded — from the Venezuela operation to the Iran bombing — and what it signals about the scope of executive power. We also break down the Supreme Court's major cases in the 2025–2026 term and how the Court is shaping the political landscape heading into the next year.

From there, Minnesota becomes the flashpoint. Today's live show examines the escalating federal response to protests, a judge's attempt to rein in ICE, and the administration's move to appeal those limits while preparing troops for possible deployment.

This is what Trump's America looks like after one year.

Videos from Minneapolis show federal immigration agents dragging a woman from her car as she screams that she's disabled — the latest flashpoint in a much larger story. Today we examine ICE's growing use of force, its expanding surveillance tools powered by Palantir and digital data, and a political climate increasingly defined by "absolute immunity," ideological enforcement, and tolerance for extremism. From street-level encounters to courtrooms and data centers, we break down how immigration enforcement is being transformed — and what that means for civil rights, accountability, and the rule of law.

Minneapolis remains on edge after another ICE-involved shooting intensifies protests, political blame-shifting, and questions about federal power. As officials argue over responsibility, new reporting reveals ICE errors that sent improperly trained recruits into field offices — alongside the exposure of secret enforcement programs now under scrutiny. We break down newly released 911 audio that challenges the official narrative, raw footage showing what protesters are experiencing on the ground, and Mayor Jacob Frey's warning that the current federal posture is "not sustainable." Meanwhile, concerns over press freedom grow after the FBI executes a search warrant at a Washington Post reporter's home — raising alarm about whether journalists are becoming targets in this escalating environment. And as tensions rise, one question looms large: where is Jeff Bezos?

Who is ICE — and who are they really hiring? Today we dig into a controversial report from Slate by Laura Jedeed, "You've Heard About Who ICE Is Recruiting. The Truth Is Far Worse. I'm the Proof." — in which she recounts how she was essentially hired by Immigration and Customs Enforcement despite minimal vetting, raising serious questions about the agency's recruiting and screening practices.

We also break down the Justice Department's announcement that there's no basis for a civil rights investigation into the Minneapolis ICE shooting, even as video and public outrage grow and federal prosecutors resign in protest.

Plus: Trump pushes election rule changes while privately lamenting not seizing voting machines in 2020, and the DOJ faces fresh attacks from the White House as tensions with prosecutors and pardon politics intensify. Power, hiring, immunity, and accountability — all colliding at once.

After a fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis that left 37-year-old Renee Good dead — and with federal investigators controlling the probe and scrutinizing her actions — Minnesota has sued the Department of Homeland Security and ICE over aggressive immigration enforcement. Protests and outrage have also erupted after ICE detained employees — including U.S. citizens — at a Target store in Richfield, Minnesota. Today, we break down how federal power, policing, and civil rights are colliding in ways that feel unfamiliar — and deeply unsettling — to many Americans

New video from Minneapolis lays out key moments in the ICE shooting of Renée Good as protests spread nationwide and the federal response intensifies. Thousands more agents are deployed, congressional oversight is restricted, and the White House leans hard on the language of "absolute immunity." We break down what the footage shows, what the law actually says, and how escalation is unfolding simultaneously inside the Justice Department, the Federal Reserve, the oil industry—and abroad, as Trump revives threats over Greenland and NATO.

The federal government says one thing. The video shows another.

Today, we dismantle the official narrative surrounding the killing of Renee Nicole Good during an ICE operation in Minneapolis — and the rapidly shifting explanations offered by DHS and Trump administration officials afterward. As footage, eyewitness accounts, and DHS's own use-of-force policy circulate publicly, federal spokespeople appear to be arguing past the evidence, not with it.

We also explore the constitutional dimension — specifically the 14th Amendment's Due Process protections and the long-recognized right to bodily security, which legal experts argue makes blocking emergency medical care for injured individuals unlawful.
