BONUS: Trump Insurrection Act Threat, Machado Gives Trump Her Nobel Prize, ICE in Minneapolis and Katy Tur Reports on MSNow.

Independent Americans host, Army veteran and 9/11 first responder Paul Rieckhoff joins Katy Tur Reports to dig into the human and political fallout of America’s broken immigration and border system. From front-line agents to families and communities, he explains how putting ICE in an impossible position is “harming our national security” and eroding trust at home and abroad.​
