Actor Danny Trejo is being questioned over his role in 'Pawn Shop', a Daily Wire production that critics say portrays ICE in a favourable light. The film's article title is 'not pro-ICE', suggesting Trejo or the filmmakers are pushing back against that reading. Discussion centers on whether his participation amounts to an ethical failing given the immigration politics involved.
Why now: People are debating the ethics of a well-known Latino actor appearing in a film seen as sympathetic to ICE amid heated immigration politics.
