Listen "What Exactly Is ICE Allowed To Do?"
Episode Synopsis
Kristin Brey was joined in-studio by retired Milwaukee County Judge Mary Kuhnmuench and former U.S. Attorney James Santelle for a deep dive into presidential power and the limits of federal authority. The trio discussed President Trump’s decision to send the Texas National Guard to Chicago and Portland under the potential justification of the Insurrection Act, tracing historical parallels and public backlash. They also examined the reach of ICE, including reports of them using AI to track critics, and debated the balance between national security and free speech.
Later, Kristin spoke with Pam Jahnke from the Midwest Farm Report about how tariffs and trade tensions are affecting Wisconsin farmers, and Trump’s proposed bailout to ease the strain. The show wrapped with listener questions about weekend getaways, the Affordable Care Act, and favorite Halloween candy.
