EPISODE 550 - Getting the Full Story!

In this Weeks Episode of The Green Line, Art Del Cueto discussed the topic of immigration enforcement, specifically the actions of ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and the media's portrayal of these actions. Art shared his experience of reading a story about ICE's enforcement at a taco stand in Phoenix, which he found to be a case of slave labor. He criticized the media and some individuals for their negative reactions to ICE's actions, suggesting that they might be defending the exploitation of undocumented workers. 

When it comes to Targeted Enforcement, Art shares the story of a case where an individual with a prior arrest for child molestation was released due to the asylum claim. Art explained the difference between an arrest and a conviction, and how the individual had not been convicted. The individual was allowed to continue with his child due to the high probability that the child was his son. Art also mentioned the Jane DOE lawsuit in Arizona, which found that detention facilities were not suitable for detaining children longer than 10 days. The individual was released and not deported, despite having a warrant for a crime against a child. Art concluded by stating that these individuals are part of targeted enforcement to ensure they face justice.

Art discussed the ongoing issues at the US-Mexico border, highlighting the conflict between cartels and the military in Chihuahua. He noted that cartels have amassed significant wealth, allowing them to acquire better weapons than the military. Art also pointed out the challenges in accurately counting the number of individuals crossing the border, as some are not detained and are considered "gotaways." He expressed concern that the numbers being reported might not be entirely accurate and could impact President Trump's efforts to enforce immigration laws.
