  • Summary

  • In this episode, we delve into a House Homeland Security subcommittee hearing examining the effects of open border policies on law enforcement. Witnesses, including sheriffs and police commissioners, shared alarming accounts of rising crime rates and the growing influence of transnational criminal organizations like Tren de Aragua, shedding light on the strain these issues place on local resources and officer safety. A contrasting perspective came from a Cato Institute representative, who challenged the notion that mass deportation would enhance public safety. The hearing also sparked debate over border security strategies, sanctuary cities, and Homeland Security grant funding. While no clear solutions emerged, this episode unpacks the key arguments and challenges surrounding one of today’s most pressing issues.
