Senator Amy Klobuchar.
Senator, it's always a pleasure and an honor to have you with us, but particularly right now.
Thank you for your time tonight.
More news ahead.
Stay with us.
Everywhere the Trump administration tries to put new camps, new ICE facilities and ICE prison camps, they're being pushed back.
Now, this is something we've been trying to cover here on this show in recent weeks.
I do feel like we're sort of starting to get our arms around it, but I just want to say to our friends in the national media, we could use some help on this story.
I think this is an important story, and it'd be great to have more national media attention to it.
The Trump administration really is trying to build Trump prison camps all over the country.
And if you look, you will find that people all over the country, including in very unexpected places, almost uniformly are pushing back everywhere they're trying to do it.
And they're pushing back in diverse and interesting ways.
This is a really interesting, emerging story.
And again, we could use some more reportorial help with it.
But let me tell you what we know.
Last week, for example, it was Durant, Oklahoma.
Local people there packed a meeting to say they don't want ICE turning a local warehouse into a giant prison.
The local government in Durant, Oklahoma then passed a brand-new ordinance that gives them the power to say no to such a facility.
Tomorrow, city council in Oklahoma City is planning to address local concerns about a proposed ICE prison there on the south side of Oklahoma City.
Up in New Jersey, Roxbury, New Jersey, locals there started protesting like mad against ICE reportedly wanting to convert a half-million-square-foot warehouse in Roxbury into an ICE prison camp.
