Description

Civil liberties attorney and co-host of the podcast, "Previously Prohibited," Jenin Younes, joins Jon Stewart to discuss how MAGA’s rewriting of the Minneapolis ICE shooting signals a perpetual escalation in violating civil liberties. They talk about how Trump has transitioned from protecting free speech to supporting censorship, JD Vance’s justification over the legality of the Minneapolis shooting, how the Right’s anti-immigrant rhetoric appeals to working-class Americans’ frustrations, and why ICE is targeting blue states and sanctuary cities while exaggerating their “non-compliance.” #DailyShow #Minneapolis #ICE #JonStewart Subscribe to The Daily Show: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwWhs_6x42TyRM4Wstoq8HA/?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Daily Show: Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDailyShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedailyshow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailyshow Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: http://www.paramountplus.com/thedailyshow Follow Comedy Central: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ComedyCentral Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ComedyCentral Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comedycentral About The Daily Show: Jon Stewart and The Best F**king News Team host The Daily Show, an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning program analyzing the biggest stories in news, politics, and culture through a sharp, satirical lens.

“Meeting in the middle”, as she suggests, will put us all over the cliff. No thanks.

I was pretty disheartened watching this video - but I’m very heartened by all the comments pointing out the moral irresponsibility and a lie the both side-sing is.

They aren't even bothering to get warrants. They are grabbing random people.

I resent this both sides-ism. The Trmp regime and conservative media are practicing stochastic terrorism and it is getting people killed. Perhaps if there were 10,000 Luigis combing through Wall Street or pulling up in red states you could both sides the current predicament. But there is no left equivalent of what the regime is doing to its citizens.

What continues to astonish me is that we are focusing on the government and not the corporations, you know the ones controlling everything.
