Description

Ned Brower from 'The Pitt' and Karen Tumlin of the Justice Action Center join The Bulwark's hosts Sonny Bunch and Adrian Carrasquillo to discuss the impact of the "ICE episode"—and the Trump policies that it shone a light on. They discuss the reality behind ICE showing up in hospitals, what changed in U.S. policy, and why viewers—and real doctors and nurses—responded so strongly.

This was such an important episode. I'm glad the writers made the decision to address this.

I'm an ER and primary care doc. The Pitt is one of only 2 medical shows I can watch without shouting at the TV how wrong it is. And if ICE shows up... there's a lot of health care workers who know exactly what to do. There are some assholes in every profession, but most of us understand the assignment even if we can't say so in a public forum.

The Pitt also brings to light the health care crisis concerning insurance and cost of care.

I will binge the entire season after the last episode of that season has aired. I love Noah and would watch anything he makes!!

That's some treachery, there. Only Sonny Bunch could bring something like this to light. Once again, Mr. Bunch, you've outdone yourself.

As a nurse I just have to say that the way the show handled this storyline was extremely realistic.

Malcom Nance has said that the entire DHS needs to be DISMANTLED because “Hydra has invaded Shield”!!

The PITT also consistently does a wonderful job of representing unhoused persons with compassion and sensitivity. It resets the bar for what minimal level of humane concern we all should be showing our fellow citizens.
