2025 4Runner TRD Pro Review; AMG GT XX; New Seats

Sergio Siderman is an Immigration Attorney whose origin story includes kidnappings, random, and of course, the asylum process.  We invited him on the show to inject some facts into the goings on with ICE in an effort to fight through the noise and pundits. Sergio explains what is really happening to immigrants of varying immigration status, why this whole thing began, crime statistics, the effects it will have on your community, and what people with green cards, visas, in-process immigration, or not status at all, should do to prepare for the future.It's an incredible enlightening episode and even if you don't have any immigrants in your family, you surely know some, and this hour will help you better understand their lives.We also talk about the race that Matt, Sergio, and Jonny Lieberman will be participating in at COTA later this year. https://sidermanlaw.com/?lang=enThe study on immigrant crime statistics:https://siepr.stanford.edu/news/mythical-tie-between-immigration-and-crimeRecorded June 11, 2025  CashAppDownload CashApp Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/mfsirfru #CashAppPodDeleteMeGet TWENTY PERCENT off your DeleteMe plan when you go to joindeleteme.com/TIRE and use promo code TIRE at checkout.   New merch!
