Trump Zeroes in on Immigration, Okays Ice Arrests at Churches & Schools, Asylum RulesChanges 1/22/25

Big changes are coming to the ability of immigration agents to track down and arrest undocumented immigrants. Long considered out of bounds, the Trump administration says ICE agents are able to make arrests at churches and schools. These sensitive areas are now fair game in the new era of immigration enforcement. While encouraged to use common sense, officials say, “criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest. The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense." We'll talk about changes to asylum policies at the border as well as we welcome presidential historian and political analyst John Rothmann to The Mark Thompson Show. We are saying goodbye to the Paris Climate Accord once again and the mantra "Drill, Baby, Drill" is back in action under Trump. What does that mean for America's part in taking care of the environment? Eco-journalist Belinda Waymouth joins for "It's the Planet, Stupid!"
