Hey, everybody. It's me, Sam Stein, managing editor at the Bullock. I'm joined by Congressman

Krishna Murthy of Illinois in the great eighth district. I wanted to thank the Congressman

for doing this. Appreciate it very much. We're here to talk about a host of different topics,

and I want to start with what's happening in your state, which is it's become kind of the

epicenter of standoffs between ICE, I guess, Border Patrol, we should be more specific, and communities in and around Chicago.

And we've had pretty testy court hearings.

We've had incredibly tense scenes from on the ground, a lot of civil strife.

I'm wondering what your senses of the latest

and what your fears are about the days and weeks ahead here. Well, my sense is that I think I hate

to say this about a government organization, but they're acting out of control, Sam. They are,

you know, I'll just give you one example. In my own congressional district,

there have been multiple incidents, incidents recently, but one is where they actually

snatched a U.S. citizen, 18-year-old woman from her car, tackled her to the ground, put their,

the ice agent put his knee on her neck, even as she's

screaming, I'm not resisting.

She's basically saying she's a U.S. citizen.

They took her away.

Her parents don't know where she is for hours.

And then she has to present her papers and she's let go.

And this has happened multiple times all over the place, not to mention that they use excessive

force, tear gas, you know, where kids are located.

They're, you know, Halloween's coming up.
