    America’s ICE Crackdown: Raids, Killings and Public Outcry
    Feb 9 2026

    Host Majid and guest Muttaqi Ismail discuss recent US enforcement actions—ICE and Border Patrol raids, the killing in Minneapolis, and community reactions—placing these events in the context of immigrant communities, politics, and public protest.
