2517 - Trump Administration Thuggery & The Coopting of the Military w/ Jeet Heer

It's Casual Friday, and it is so casual that we have pre-taped today's show Thursday evening in order to attend Emma's wedding. Sam starts off by discussing the implications of Senator Alex Padilla being man-handled and handcuffed by federal agents while trying to ask DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. He gets further into that and Donald Trump's propensity to politicizing the military with The Nation's Jeet Heer. Check out Jeet's writing and podcasting here: https://www.thenation.com/authors/jeet-heer/ After that, we take a look at Donald Trump's changing tune on immigration enforcement. Apparently famers and business owners in the "leisure industry" have managed to get Trump's ear, because he's suddenly concerned that rounding up and deporting vital workers in those industries is bad for business. Who'da thought?!?! Donald Trump is having a big bad birthday party on Saturday featuring tanks and planes and all sorts of military toys for the birthday boy, but he has an ominous warning for anyone planning to protest that day.
