As Trump unleashes ICE on workers, grandmothers, judges and mayors, what does solidarity look like. Comedian River Butcher joins Francesca to talk about these brownshirts gone wild and Stephen Miller explaining how the administration is trying to suspend habeas corpus. Also, a small victory in the battle for trans rights in Maine isn't going unnoticed by Republicans still hell bent on focusing on the wrong one percent. Then Jaz Brisack formerly of Starbucks Workers United joins to talk about their new book "Get On The Job and Organize" and how we should organize under a Donald Trump presidency. But first, Matt Lieb stops by to talk about the Trump administration re-igniting ceasefire discussions with Hamas. The proof is in the pudding but neither he nor Francesca are convinced.
