The Tara Show

In this episode, we dive into the controversy over federal agents in Chicago, unpacking decades of ICE, CBP, and INS operations, and exposing the myths spread by politicians and media about “militarization” of American cities. From Newt Gingrich’s historical perspective on the National Guard to accusations of ballot box seizure schemes, we analyze what’s real, what’s spun, and what it means for law enforcement and elections. Listeners will hear how long federal immigration authorities have actually been operating in Chicago, why claims of deranged Trump-led troop deployments are misleading, and how political narratives are shaping public fear. This episode cuts through the rhetoric to show the difference between historical precedent and today’s election-related panic.
