Family separations first. a lot of people are framing i.c.e. agents, ripping babies out of mother's arms. i want someone to give me one example where an i.c.e. agent ripped a baby out of a mother's armor mortgage-related one example where i.c.e. agent arrested anybody on a school grounds or a church or a hospital and i hear it every day give me one example and as far as separating families issues, you know this is at the doorstep of congress. i went up on the hill almost a year ago with the head of the ci s asking congress to fix the loopholes one is a settlement agreement we can detain famili...

Agents to be scared to not do their job. this isn't going to work. pete: yeah, exactly. i liken it to my own experience okay, could you actually bring charges against an individual soldier doing his job what's the basis for this and as you mentioned will it effect at all conduct of ice officers. >> it won't. if you are an agent or officer out in the field and you are doing your job and doing it right, the agency is going to cover your back. but not only do you have the agency, you have the u.s. attorney's office that will act as your lawyer to represent you. if this is just a tactic, it's a sc...

Pete: you are right. very much like the sanctuary city debate. mayor's say we don't want to work with ice. we don't recognize them. ultimately voters get a vote. we will see what happens through the primary process. what matters the most to me. what is actually happening on the ground? what does ice actually do? who are these men and women and what is their mission. earlier on in the program we had sheriff chuck jenkins on the show from frederick county maryland. they have an ms-13 13 problem in that area. we asked them. what's it like to work with ice? here is what he had to say. >> i have wo...
