Summary

The Obama administration implemented a large-scale deportation strategy, similar to current ICE deportations under the Trump administration. CBS News is facing criticism from left-leaning citizens for its attempt to appear more centrist, particularly regarding sensitive ICE raid coverage. Mark interviews economist Steve Moore. Steve discusses the ongoing labor shortage and expresses concerns about President Trump’s proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10%, suggesting it could reduce available credit options for consumers. Nearly $800,000 has been raised for the Ford employee who heckled Trump during a plant visit. Questions arise about whether the Trump administration has issued illegal orders to the US military, with Senator Mark Kelly regularly challenging Pete Hegseth on the matter. Mayor Mamdani passionately discusses First Amendment rights, which Border Czar Tom Homan may not fully support. Mark interviews Jimmy Failla, WOR Weeknight host. The conversation highlights that “angry Caucasian women” are leading protests against ICE raids, and asserts that following police instructions reduces the likelihood of trouble.
