Maggie dives headfirst into a whirlwind of political drama and policy shifts in this hour. From the arrest of NYC Comptroller Brad Lander to the Trump administration’s escalating attacks on Democratic-led cities, Maggie unpacks the rhetoric—and the risks. Iowa State Rep. J.D. Scholten (scholtenforiowa.com), a professional baseball player (who plays for an official partner to MLB) turned Senate candidate, joins to share the grassroots energy behind his campaign to unseat Joni Ernst. Meanwhile, Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul celebrates a pivotal Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling that reinforces the state’s separation of powers. And Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson weighs in on Trump’s divisive tactics, calling for peaceful protest as a vital countermeasure.
