Hello, everyone. I'm Kimberly Adams. Welcome back to Make Me Smart, where we make today make sense.

And I'm Rie Maechres. Thank you for joining us, everyone. It is Monday, July 21st. It is a news and smiles kind of day. Let's start with the news.

What have you been up to?

But when it comes to the actual news, you know, we have our Sunday morning

talk show traditions here in Washington where everybody sort of sees what administration

officials and members of Congress are saying. And I'm not usually like super plugged into them,

but I do like look at the recaps and things.

And it was really interesting because the head of ICE, Todd Lyons, was on CBS's Face the Nation this Sunday.

They are, you know, just broadening who they're targeting. And,

you know, it seems to be the perspective of the administration, you know, that they're, that if you

reasons that they deem as good enough.
