About this episode
It's News Day Tuesday on The Majority Report On today's program: As airports remain in chaos due to the DHS shutdown, Trump has deployed ICE agents to assist TSA agents (stand around aimlessly). Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) says that the Senate had agreed on a deal to fund everything but ICE, which can be funded through reconciliation, but Trump shut it down. Trump has been very forceful in his opposition to any deal that doesn't include the SAVE Act which of course has nothing to do with DHS funding. Suzanne Mettler, Political Science Professor at Cornell University, joins the program for a conversation about her book co-authored with Trevor E. Brown, Urban Versus Rural: The Growing Divide That Threatens Democracy. In the Fun Half: The X account Call to Activism has leaked a video of Zoom meeting between Chip Roy, who introduced the SAVE Act, admitting that his chief of staff has had an extremely difficult time getting a real ID. Trump pits Stephen Miller and Kash Patel against each other in an ass kissing competition. all that and more Check out longtime MR listener Jim Di Bartolo's new graphic novel F*ck Billionaires To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.
