1/8/26 11AM: Illegal, Preventable, and Ignored

from The Truth with Sherwin Hughes · host Sherwin Hughes

Sherwin continues the conversation around an ICE agent’s actions—why they were illegal, why they were preventable, and why this keeps happening. He responds to a listener text about “dealing with anger,” then reads directly from DHS policy on the use of deadly force to show, once again, how the law was violated—before kicking Johnny out of the classroom. Later, Al calls in with a pointed cultural reflection: “White people want our rhythm but not our blues,” urging listeners to look up the song “The Loophole.” The episode wraps with final thoughts and closing conversations.
