She wanted to report the parents of a kindergarten student at her school.
And it looks like they have a child who was born in New York, which makes them an American citizen.
So we're looking to deport the parents and leave the child.
She thinks they're not in the country legally because she says they are Hispanic and there aren't a lot of Hispanic people in her community.
Yeah, because you normally see those people where?
Hispanics out of place now in country, not where they belong in city.
Many of the top commenters are alarmed that a teacher would profile a student and then facilitate separating that student from their family.
They use words like devastated, disgusting.
Ben opposes the administration's immigration enforcement tactics.
And yet, he's able to engage with callers like that teacher in his signature deadpan, low-firing amygdala tone.
Teaches at school, wants kindergarten child's parents deported.
Oh, well, I'm just writing down what you're telling me.
Once you kind of put it back on them, what's going to happen if what they called for happens, they get uncomfortable.
There's another lady who's like, I want to call about this employee that works at Publix.
