In the U.S. city of Minneapolis, two fatal shootings by agents of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement – or ICE – within just weeks have sparked protests across the country. Demonstrators are demanding accountability, questioning whether federal immigration enforcement is operating within legal bounds. So what do these developments reveal about U.S. immigration enforcement and its broader implications? Also in this episode, we turn to a phrase known as the U.S. "kill line" which has gone viral on social media, capturing concerns about economic vulnerability and social risk in American society.
Guests in this edition of Dialogue are Peter Kuznick, professor of history at American University; Benjamin Norton, founder and editor-in-chief of Geopolitical Economy Report; and Michael Popp, independent analyst of U.S. affairs.
