About this episode

The episode discusses Tim Walz's defense of his pardon for an illegal immigrant convicted of child molestation and critiques from other political figures on immigration enforcement.

Tim Walz finally addresses his pardon of an illegal immigrant convicted of child molestation, arguing deportation "wouldn't make Minnesota safer" and that "we can't all be judged by our worst day." Then Texas Senate candidate James Talarico claims a border wall is unnecessary because God already built one out of cliffs and mountains, and Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin describes ICE agents involved in recent shootings as having killed people "in cold blood." The panel breaks down all three moments and what they say about the Democratic Party's stance on immigration enforcement.
