Today, Maggie and Angela chat with Dr. William Lopez, a Clinical Assisstant Professor on Health Behavior and Health Equity, a Senior Advisor on Poverty Solutions, and a Faculty Associate in Latino/a Studies at the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor. Here, they discuss how public health is tied to community as well as Dr. Lopez's public health research which draws methods from Anthropology, specifically considering the impact of deportation, and fear of deportation, on health by looking at ICE raids.

In today's news brief, Tina highlights the recent actions by President Trump to deport Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador's notorious Terrorism Confinement Center, citing the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to justify this deportation. Tina then expands on judicial efforts to thwart these actions, shedding light especially on President Trump's choice to ignore negative decisions and to go ahead with the deportations. Amidst this legal battle, Tina magnifies the potential implications that this case could have on the efficacy of judicial review when it comes to presidential action in the remainder of the current presidential term.
