Show Notes

New data reveals that the recent ICE sweep in Maine, dubbed Operation Catch of the Day, primarily targeted individuals with immigration violations, not criminals as initially claimed. Only 12 out of 192 arrested had criminal convictions, while 153 were hit for immigration violations. This data, obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests, contradicts DHS and White House claims and has sparked outrage over targeting non-criminals. ICE maintains that all arrested individuals broke federal immigration law by being in the country illegally.
