This man decides if ICE face justice
Description: Donald Trump just installed Aaron Reitz — a far-right Texas Republican who says his goal is to "destroy the left" — as US Attorney for the Southern District of Texas. No Senate confirmation required. And he'll now decide whether the ICE agents who killed a man in the Houston area ever face investigation. David and Matt break down who Reitz is, his call to strip a Texas Democrat of his citizenship, and why "law and order" politics keeps handing power to people like this.
