Alex Pretti ICE Takeover of Facebook Traffic | Freed Up Ep. 11

Описание: Robby Soave and Christian Britschgi kick off the show by unpacking newly surfaced footage of Alex Pretti's encounters with federal immigration agents in Minneapolis ahead of his fatal shooting last weekend. Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse, was killed by Border Patrol officers on January 24 during heightened ICE operations, sparking intense protests and national debate over federal law enforcement tactics.

They then pivot to a broader civil-liberties discussion, highlighting why Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has been particularly effective on issues of government overreach — especially regarding law enforcement abuses of power.

Finally, on a lighter note, Robby and Christian wrap up the episode with a fun conversation about Mad Men, Breaking Bad, and other standout prestige television shows — blending pop-culture talk with their usual political insights.
