Show Notes
Todd Lyons, a former South Boston resident and Air Force veteran, rose to become the head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under the Trump administration. Known for his affable and professional demeanor, Lyons oversaw aggressive raids that led to hundreds of thousands of detentions and deportations, often separating families. Despite his personal struggles with missing his sons games, Lyons maintains a strict stance on immigration laws, sympathizing with broken families but insisting that those in the country illegally must face the consequences. Under new DHS boss Markwayne Mullin, Lyons promises a shift towards targeting criminals rather than everyday immigrants. Facing criticism in Congress over kid detentions and shootings, Lyons remains committed to his role, aiming to steer ICE in a more compassionate direction while upholding the law.
