Across America in cities large and small, "No Kings" protests were well attended. From Miami to New York to Portland to San Francisco, people came out to march with signs and sing and chant together. The events were mostly peaceful, except for a shooting in Utah. Initial estimates from the American Civil Liberties Union and MoveOn.org indicate that more than five million people participated in more than 2,100 rallies and protests.
While Americans were rallying against authoritarianism, Trump spent his birthday in DC watching the military march past his large parade stand built to showcase the White House in the background. Along with the tanks and troops, military equipment like drones and partners like Lockheed Martin were featured.
We welcome iHeart Radio and Television political analyst Gary Dietrich to talk politics.
We turn to the economy as the G7 Summit gets underway in Canada, Trump's Tariffs continue to affect the global economy and Crypto takes hold. Dr. William K. Black, associate professor of economics and law at the University of Missouri, Kansas City, and author of "The Best Way to Rob a Bank is to Own One," will join.
