In cities across the country, from Los Angeles to Chicago to Minneapolis, residents have taken to the streets to oppose the militarized immigration sweeps, enforcement tactics and violence of ICE and Border Patrol under President Trump's second term. A new ProPublica and Frontline investigation looks at law enforcement's heavy-handed response to these protests, resulting in legally dubious charges that later unravel.
