Protests, Politics, and the Power of Soccer (Hour 2)
In a lively discussion, John and co-host Matt Rothschild dive into the evolving landscape of political protests, highlighting creative nonviolent tactics like France's economic shutdowns and Portland's inventive demonstrations. They dissect Trump's controversial National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, worrying it's a blueprint for a police state. The duo then shifts to a lighter note with Connor Caloia announcing a new women's soccer team in Madison, emphasizing soccer's growth in the U.S., but lamenting barriers to entry for young talent. Closing thoughts ponder engaging with Trump supporters empathetically as Mike McCabe shares insights from his book on unscrewing America.
