On a tumultuous Election Day, Maggie teams up with former U.S. Attorney Jim Santelle to unpack high-stakes mayoral and gubernatorial races across the country. The discussion intensifies as they examine Donald Trump’s controversial pardons — including one granted to a Chinese billionaire accused of terrorism financing — raising serious questions about presidential ethics and accountability. The outrage deepens with Sen. Lindsey Graham’s shocking “killing the right people” comment and another senator’s embrace of white nationalist rhetoric. Maggie delivers a fiery call for economic justice, proposing a tax break on the first $45,000 earned and higher taxes on the ultra-wealthy. Listeners join in with candid perspectives on race, class, and the growing divide in American politics, as Maggie insists that real reform must start with fairness — both in the tax code and in leadership.
