58:46Now PlayingAfter a court temporarily blocked the deployment of Guard troops in Illinois, ICE agents began ramping up their operations around Chicagoland. They are now demanding that residents produce their papers—particularly if they have brown skin. Officers stand outside churches holding Spanish-language Mass or they go into tourist areas to confront people, including U.S. Citizens. If someone doesn't have an ID with them, they'll be detained. The power-hungry officials around Trump, including Stephen Miller, are likely behind the enhanced menacing.
Meanwhile in Israel, the resilience of the surviving hostages—after a sustained campaign of deprivation—is worthy of celebration. Plus, the Hamas executions of Gazans, our American pharoah's comfort with Middle East strongmen, and even Newsmax says the new Pentagon press rules are a bridge too far.
Gov. JB Pritzker and The Atlantic's Frank Foer join Tim Miller.
