Failed would-be VP Walz vows to protect Minnesota against 'hateful agenda'
In his first speech following Trump's victory on Saturday, Walz claimed “we’ve already seen the damage a president can cause when he’s in it for himself, not the American people.”
“It’s hard to lose, it’s hard to understand while so many of our fellow citizens, people that we have fought so long and hard for, wound up choosing the other path,” he cried.

Illinois judge overturns semiautomatic weapon ban
US District Judge Stephen P. McGlynn delivered an injunction on Friday against the ban that came into effect last year in response to the Highland Park shootings - only for Democrat state AG Kwame Raoul to immediately file an appeal.
"There are those who seek to usher in a sort of post-Constitution era where the citizens’ individual rights are only as important as they are convenient to a ruling class," McGlynn remarked in his ruling.
The injunction will only come into effect in 30 days' time.

🚨DENNIS KUCINICH SLAMS US'🇺🇸 UKRAINE PROXY WAR POLICY:
'There was a peace deal on the table which guaranteed Ukrainian sovereignty. But it was then Boris Johnson and people in the Biden Administration that resisted any kind of peace deal for their own motivations, admixture of megalomaniacal impulses, and just pure greed that comes from arms deals and this vanity that suggested that they were going to capsize the Russian government...the US policy of continuing to feed an escalation there has put the US at a disadvantage to be able to influence events there.'
-Veteran former Congressman Dennis Kucinich joins us for Saturday's Going Underground where he reacts to Donald Trump's victory, discusses how Trump can fulfill his promises to end the wars, and much more.
