Dems EAT Their Own in California, with Ana Kasparian, and Trump's "Softer" Deportation Approach, with Gregory Bovino | Ep. 1317
"It does seem like things have changed over this past year, and whether that's towards amnesty or less deportations, the book's still open on that. There is reporting, including from The Atlantic, that reports in January the Labor Department's Foreign Labor Certification Office announced it would cut the number of approved visas for seasonal workers by about 50%. Stephen Miller had been trying for a long time to get these things cut. But they report that after those two people were killed in Minneapolis, Trump reversed the visa cuts and that Miller was not even aware of the walkback."
After the deaths of Renee Goode and Alex Preddy in Minneapolis, the Trump administration quietly dismantled roving Border Patrol strike forces conducting interior enforcement in six major cities and reversed Stephen Miller's visa restrictions. Gregory Bovino confirmed the administration adopted a far softer approach, with hardliners like himself, Kristi Noem, Cory Lewandowski, and Chief Mike Banks all pushed out. The shift represents what Bovino called a return to de facto amnesty for illegal aliens who avoid committing additional serious crimes.
