'WE NEED TO WATCH OUT': Maddow sounds alarm on ICE surveillance as Trump wields new weapon - Rachel Maddow MSNBC
Rachel Maddow explains that while much of Donald Trump's abuse of power is typical of authoritarians, Trump has a new tool that no authoritarian before him has had: extremely advanced spyware.
Trump is already deploying this new weapon through ICE, which intends to use this surveillance technology against immigrants but also against Americans who protest against ICE, and anyone they might snare with an extremely loose definition of "anti-fascist." - Aired on 10/27/2025.
