Attorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian dissect the constitutional crisis unfolding in Los Angeles as ICE agents conduct sweeping raids targeting Latino communities in parks and neighborhoods. They explain why stopping people based on skin color violates equal protection principles, how the Trump administration is using intimidation rather than legal authority, and the difference between targeting violent criminals versus hardworking families. The hosts explore the practical reality that agents cannot randomly demand papers, the emerging pattern of Section 1983 civil rights violations, and how these raids represent expensive political theater designed to appease Trump’s base rather than effective law enforcement.
