On this episode of The Critical Hour with Dr. Wilmer Leon, there are those who believe that ICE should be abolished. Where are we with reuniting these kids with their parents and will DHS be able to meet the judges timeline?
Also, last week, the White House announced an executive order establishing a "National Council for the American Worker."

All of this while his 2019 budget claims to help struggling workers, but it cuts a range of programs supporting work and economic opportunity.
This is all very interesting and altruistic at a time when Trump's tariff's are impacting American manufacturing and President Trump's Council of Economic Advisers declared two weeks ago that America's long-running war on poverty "is largely over and a success," as it made the case for imposing new work requirements on Americans who benefit from federal safety net programs.
What's going on here?
