  • Bill Burr's Rant: Bill Burr criticizes the segment of the American population that enjoys seeing immigrant families being torn apart.
  • Scapegoating Immigrants: Burr argues that immigrants are not the reason people can't make rent. He asserts that employers are to blame for not paying a living wage.
