Maggie dives into the alarming influence of elite MAGA operatives aiming to establish an American aristocracy, backed by figures like Chris Buskirk and Peter Thiel. This shift, fueled by changes in taxation and Supreme Court rulings equating money with speech, represents a colossal wealth transfer to the ultra-rich, threatening democracy. The discussion then pivots to the Supreme Court's weakening of the Voting Rights Act, jeopardizing fair representation through gerrymandering, especially in Louisiana. On a lighter note, Maggie shares a cozy recipe for cold weather and uncovers Wisconsin's hidden history, spotlighting Harvey Higley's pivotal role in creating Veterans Day and the GI Bill.
