ICE Is Back. Has Anything Changed? Ft. John Sandweg

Dela

Why is ICE increasingly using traffic stops—and are they making immigration enforcement more dangerous?

In this episode, Carlo speaks with former Acting ICE Director John Sandweg about the recent fatal ICE shootings in Maine and Texas, the agency's evolving enforcement tactics, and the pressure to increase arrest numbers under the Trump administration.

Sandweg, who led ICE during the Obama administration, explains why vehicle stops have historically not been a core immigration enforcement tactic, how arrest quotas can influence operational decisions, and what questions should be asked following recent deadly encounters. The conversation also explores officer safety, use-of-force standards, and the challenges facing immigration agents on the ground.
