Congress is debating restrictions for ICE this week, we'll go into the funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security; it seems the real negotiations are not between the Democrats and the Republican senators, but between the Democrats and Trump. The "Big Beautiful Bill" provided an additional $75 billion to ICE last July so, if no funding deal is made next week, the Coast Guard and FEMA will be shut down while ICE will continue to operate. Harold Meyerson comments.
Next: The Super Bowl is by far the biggest entertainment event of the year in the US, and this Sunday the halftime show will feature Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny, who has been demanding “ICE Out!” How did the Super Bowl halftime show become the center of resistance to ICE? Dave Zirin will explain.
Also: On February 1, 1960 four students sat down on stools at Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina and ordered coffee and donuts, challenging the rules of segregation with non-violent resistance. They were refused service but were joined the next day by a group of people – sparking a movement to desegregate with sit-ins nationwide.
As the Trump administration works to replace multiculturalism with white nationalism – this February – America's 50th observance – Black History month is especially important. From the archives, we revisit an interview with Isabel Wilkerson on her book about the great migration of Black people out of the South: “The Warmth of Other Suns” (originally recorded in 2010).
Plus: Your Minnesota Moment: A first-hand account of anti-ICE demonstrations in Minnesota, and attending Bruce Springsteen's First Avenue performance of "Streets of Minneapolis" – the No. 1 song in America this week.
