The AM/DM podcast: Will federal troops be pulled from Memphis?
The AM/DM is The Daily Memphian’s weekday podcast. Listen in every morning around 6:30 a.m. to get the news you need for the day, as well as a critical — but quick — interview on a larger story.
In the last few weeks, special deployments of federal law enforcement have been pulled back in Minneapolis, Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland.
So what might happen to the Memphis Safe Task Force? If operations in other cities are ending, could Memphis be far behind?
Public safety reporter Aarron Fleming talked to the White House last week to answer that very question. This morning, he shares his insights with us.
