MSNBC’s Chris Hayes joined NBC’s Late Night host Seth Meyers on Thursday for his third visit to a late night comedy show since the start of the year. As Hayes sees things, it is not Democratic politicians pulling stunts trying to get a viral moment in their interactions with ICE or DHS, but rather the Trump Administration, and this should lead people to be both “enraged and freaked out.”
Meyers recalled, “There's, you know, obviously the scarier stuff that is happening. You know, we saw a couple of, you know, elected officials in this country, mayoral candidate Brad Lander, here in New York City, he got detained by ICE. And you talked to him right afterwards. Like, I mean, was he still—was he shocked by what had happened.”
Hayes replied that, “He was pretty shocked. I mean, one of the things I think that's important context for the comptroller, Brad Lander, was he's been doing this for weeks.”
