Maggie sounds the alarm on rising authoritarianism as protests erupt over Trump’s military deployment in California. Rallying behind the growing No Kings movement, Maggie urges us to embrace peaceful resistance and stand firm in defense of democracy. With Trump’s approval ratings in freefall and accusations of unconstitutional overreach mounting, the segment dives into the fragility of civil liberties in today’s political climate. Callers from across Wisconsin weigh in—some voicing fear over immigration crackdowns, others defiantly committed to protest and organizing. Maggie denounces the abuse of executive power and reminds all of us that true leadership is rooted in public accountability, not authoritarian control.
