Summary
This hour, Newell pushes back against a report by The Washington Post that highlights that ICE has arrested more than half a million people since President Trump returned to office, with roughly 40% of those individuals having no prior criminal convictions or pending charges. Then, Dr. Brian Fitzpatrick, Fordham’s National Research Manager, joins the show to discuss if high school grades are becoming meaningless in the age of AI and endless screen time.
