CNBC's Steve Liesman Drills GOP Rep Over 'National Embarrassment' Of ICE Camps

CNBC host Steve Liesman rebuked Rep. Jason Smith for not taking responsibility over deplorable conditions in ICE detention centers, describing them as an embarrassment for the administration.

Congressman Smith joined Squawk Box to discuss the state of affairs on Trump's tariffs, reorganizing ICE, and the murders of Good and Pretti.

The mood got dark for Smith when Liesman began systematically attacking the DHS over its behavior in Minnesota and the immigration detention centers overall.

Liesman asked if the Border Patrol and ICE need to be reformed, which lead to some heated exchanges.

LIESMAN: There aren't two people dead as a result of problems in government that need to be reformed. I mean, in Minnesota, right?

I mean, there are people in the streets that are protesting the actions by this agency, and there isn't concern about what they might do with elections and picking up people off the streets in schools, right?

I mean, that's a different story. Are you not in favor of reform for ICE specifically?

Rep. Smith, as usual, refused to comment on an ongoing investigation and then blamed President Biden for having porous borders. Kernen let him spew his bullshit about the security of the border under Trump.

Then when asked about the detention centers, Smith did the both-sides jig and Liesman would not have it.

'Whiskey' Pete Hegseth Smacked Down In Kelly’s ‘Illegal Orders’ Case

It’s another big, public fail for Donald Trump’s efforts to punish Democratic members of Congress for reminding U.S. servicemembers, in a video, they are obligated to follow the law and to disobey any illegal orders. Felonious Trump was so triggered by their remarks, he raged that it was “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!”

So far, it’s not punishable at all. Which is how it should be.

On Tuesday, Trump lackey Jeanine Pirro suffered a humiliating 0-6 loss trying to punish the six Democrats who spoke out in the video. She was unable to pass the very low bar of getting a grand jury to indict a single one of them.

On Thursday, federal judge Richard J. Leon temporarily blocked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s efforts to retaliate against Sen. Mark Kelly, a retired Naval officer, for participating in the video. Kelly had sued Hegseth and the Department of Defense for trying to discipline him and reduce his retirement rank and pension.

Fed Background Investigator Busted In Sex Sting

Bloomington, Minnesota, Police Chief Booker Hodges was discussing the results of a sex sting operation his department conducted, and one of the people they caught was more noteworthy than average:

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**

He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

— Minnesota House DFL (@mnhousedfl.bsky.social) 2026-02-10T20:53:32.740Z

This is the most disturbing arrest that we've had here. He is a backgrounder for ICE, Homeland Security, and federal agencies. So when you're getting your security clearance, this is one of the guys that does your backgrounds, which is kind of scary.
