Immigration lawyer: Trump admin 'trying to lock up as many people as possible' - Velshi - MS NOW



The Trump administration has been rounding up and jailing migrants without the opportunity for release on bond. A recent court decision now challenges that approach saying it raises "serious constitutional questions."

Immigration Attorney Allen Orr argues arresting migrants without criminal records isn't about lowering crime or immigration enforcement but pushing a political agenda. Orr says, "We're trying to lock up as many people as possible, take as much of the taxpayer money and give it to private companies as possible." - Aired on 05/03/2026.

It sounds like a petty argument approach but Trump doesn't like it so if it shuts them up every time they bring up their racist migrant lies then lets use it.
