We take a closer look at the case of journalist Mario Guevara, who has been in ICE detention since mid-June despite being in the country legally with all criminal charges thrown out. Cayden is joined by Atlanta area freelance reporter Sam Barnes. Read Sam's full story in the Georgia Recorder.

Then we take a broader look at the escalating normalization of state violence and erosion of civil liberties being enacted by the Trump administration's deportation programs and more. Cayden is joined by the International Associate General Secretary for American Friends Service Committee (or AFSC), Kerri Kennedy.
