10:26Now PlayingFormer J6 Police Officer Michael Fanone and Maya May break down why a recent ICE shooting — and the government’s response to it — marks a turning point. From blocked investigations to violations of federal deadly-force policy, he explains why accountability is collapsing and why calls for “calm” no longer match reality.
As a former law enforcement officer, Fanone walks through what the rules actually say — and why firing into a moving vehicle, smearing victims before investigations, and shutting state police out of the process should alarm every American, regardless of politics.
This conversation isn’t about left vs. right.
It’s about what happens when institutions stop answering to the public.
