The Discrimination Playbook: ICE at the Super Bowl & How it Relates to Local Policing

Welcome to the De-Bug the System Podcast!This episode of "The Discrimination Playbook: ICE at the Super Bowl & How it Relates to Local Policing" discusses the consistent threats from the federal administration that ICE agents will be present in Santa Clara County for the Super Bowl and how this relates to local policing. Our conversation covers ICE activity already happening in Santa Clara County, especially at our local jails, the relationship of ICE violence to police violence, and the accountability we need from local political figures. This episode was recorded Friday January 23rd, 2026 before Alex Pretti was shot and killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis, MN. We send our deepest condolences to his family and community and we honor and remember all those loved ones killed by ICE agents or in ICE facilities this year in 2026:- Alex Pretti- Renee Good- Keith Porter- Heber Sanchez Dominguez- Victor Manuel Diaz- Parady La- Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz- Luis Gustavo Nunez CaceresWe are in solidarity with all the local communities that experience the force and cruelty that is paired with international sporting events and reflect on how we, in San Jose, are going to protect our people.
