In this first hour -- heads are spinning after a whistleblower revealed a massive data breach exposing the sensitive information of 300 million Americans, with allegations tying the failure to Elon Musk. Despite repeated warnings, cybersecurity lapses are pushing the nation toward a full-blown privacy crisis. At the same time, Wisconsin Republicans are looking to pull in more out-of-state donations, raising fresh questions about corruption and outside influence. Jim Santelle joins Maggie to discuss the legal and political chaos after Donald Trump sets his sights on Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, sparking fears of constitutional upheaval. And back in Wisconsin, Rep. Clinton Anderson describes a bipartisan effort to support police recruitment in small communities—something most agree is desperately needed—finds itself mired in partisan gridlock. Common-sense solutions remain tangled in the web of political dysfunction.
