February.
It's the hardest word of the year.
Hey there, it's the NPR Politics Podcast for Thursday, February 5th.
2026.
I'm Tamara Keith, I cover the White House.
I'm Ashley Lopez, I cover politics.
And I'm Domenico Montanero, senior political editor and correspondent.
Today on the show, we have a new NPR PBS News Marist poll,
and it finds a significant share of Americans say ICE.
Immigration and customs enforcement has gone too far.
Domenico, after the past month of intense focus on ICE tactics and alarming video out of Minnesota,
maybe it doesn't come as a total surprise, but Help us understand the numbers.
Yeah, the 65% in this poll who say that ICE has gone too far is up 11 points since last summer.
So a big reason has been everything that we've seen on TV, you know,
the two American citizens who have been killed just in the past few weeks over this.
And really the biggest movement has been with independents and Democrats by double digits.
They've moved to saying that ICE has gone too far.
We take Republicans out of it.
It's just huge numbers.
