Thursday’s PBS News Hour kept up its desperate rear-guard action fight against the Trump administration’s tactics in deporting illegal immigrants, so it was emotional and delighted to find a change of heart in a “deeply conservative” Montana town that didn’t turn out to be full of hate-filled rubes after all. The online headline: “ICE arrest in a rural Montana town prompts a conservative community to take action.” PBS didn’t issue headlines like “liberal Minneapolis fights ICE” earlier this year. Co-anchor Amna Nawaz declared: In a northeastern corner of Montana sits the small town of Froid. Rural and deeply conservative, it backed President Trump during every one of his White House runs. But, earlier this year, when federal immigration agents detained one of the town's longtime residents, this tight-knit community pushed back. Here's Montana PBS's Matt Standal.
