Maggie engages with attorney Robert Held, who shares his experience with ICE protests in Chicago. Held, initially a passive observer, became an activist after witnessing federal agents using excessive force against peaceful demonstrators. He recounts being detained for eight hours without charges and criticizes the federal approach, emphasizing the importance of legal witnesses in protests. This hour also covers broader issues like the Trump administration's aggressive immigration tactics and extrajudicial actions, as highlighted by Senator Rand Paul. With insights from faith leaders and legal experts, Maggie critiques the normalization of government violence and the urgent need for accountability.
