Friday-On-the-Front-Porch, Head-ON With Roxanne Kincaid, 25 April 2025

Now the fascists are going after judges. Let that sink in. Judges. Pam Blondi has declared the 4th Amendment no longer in effect. Unidentified masked gunmen are stalking people's homes all over the country. And here we are, with ringside seats to the potential end of our time as a constitutional republic at the hands of an outlaw regime. The question is, how do we save it?

 

Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid — April 25, 2025

In this episode of Head-ON, Roxanne Kincaid broadcasts live from West Virginia, blending sharp political commentary with community conversation. Roxanne fiercely critiques the Trump regime’s recent assaults on the judiciary, detailing the controversial arrests of Judge Hannah Dugen in Wisconsin and Judges Joel and Nancy Cono in New Mexico over their handling of immigrants. She defends judicial authority, questions ICE’s tactics, and condemns the use of dehumanizing language like "illegal alien."

The show highlights alarming expansions of executive power: Attorney General Pam Blondie’s memo allows warrantless home entries under the Alien Enemies Act, stripping non-citizens of legal protections. Roxanne warns of nationwide immigrant roundups enabled by new cooperation agreements with over 150 local police departments.

Community voices shine during the "Front Porch" call-in segment. Roger discusses Social Security's racist exclusions and Trump-era veteran benefit cuts. Steve shares immigrant protection stories, while Sylvie sends a moving family story about life before Social Security. Good news arrives with the announcement of a retro electric pickup truck by "Slate" (not Tesla), sparking lighter conversation about sustainable transport and a humorous send-off about Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI’s funeral.

Listener Dave calls in with personal updates, offers to recite the Pledge of Allegiance in Latin for donations, and critiques ICE abuses. Micah, the "data girl," provides practical tech security tips, emphasizing the importance of using passcodes over biometrics.

Throughout, Roxanne underscores the show’s urgent funding needs, noting a deficit of $2,330 and the community’s ongoing support to keep independent liberal media alive. She ends with calls to action: stay informed, stay vigilant, and fight creeping fascism.
