    This has been a difficult week, as many mourn the deaths of Renee Good and others at the hands of ICE. As enforcement actions escalate across the country, the whole country becomes part of the borderlands, and thoughtful, detailed reporting from the region continues to become ever more important. This week, we were happy to bring you a review by Caroline Tracey of an art exhibition by Sonora-born artist Miriam Salado that touched on themes of natural resources and violence in the Sonoran Desert and a reported analysis by Todd Miller about how a dramatic increase in private contracts figures into current border enforcement. Melissa del Bosque also spoke with border activist and ex-Border Patrol agent Jenn Budd about the recent ICE killings and agent impunity.

  • A discussion with former agent Jenn Budd on Border Patrol and ICE impunity

    A discussion with former agent Jenn Budd on Border Patrol and ICE impunity
    2026/01/12

    I’ve been speaking with Jenn Budd for years about Border Patrol crimes, impunity and how the agency could be (and should be reformed.) But both Democrats and Republicans have refused to demand oversight and accountability for the highly politicized agency.

    Border Patrol and its paramilitary culture are now very much in control of the ICE & Border Patrol occupations in various cities in America. We talk about what this means for the investigation of Renee Good’s murder in Minneapolis by an ICE agent, and what that means for Americans as these occupations continue. We also talk about the many years of fatal shootings at the southern border, and the fact that not a single agent has been successfully prosecuted for lethal force.

    We also discuss previous efforts at reform and what can be done to hold the agents accountable for their crimes.

    You can learn more about Jenn’s work in this important documentary “Critical Incident: Death at the Border” which is out now on HBO Max. You can also listen to our 2022 podcast with Jenn about her memoir “Against the Wall: My Journey from Border Patrol Agent to Immigrant Rights Activist” about her time as an agent in the Border Patrol and her transformation into an activist and one of the fiercest critics against the agency.
