Joe Rogan called the Trump administration’s immigration raids on workplaces “insane” and said the federal government would be better off targeting “cartel members,” “gang members” and “drug dealers.”
Rogan, host of the wildly popular Spotify podcast “The Joe Rogan Experience,” also said during Wednesday’s episode that he didn’t agree with the administration’s detention of a green card holder and a graduate student over criticism of Israel.
Rogan offered up his comments as the Trump administration resumed and intensified rounding up undocumented laborers, reversing a brief mid-June pause that had applied to sectors like agriculture, hospitality and food processing.
