Over the weekend, we saw "No King's Day" protests from San Diego to New York City. The demonstrations were part of a nationwide action against President Trump's military parade.

In downtown San Diego, 60,000 people marched to protest President Trump's recent policies. Many were motivated by recent immigration raids throughout Southern California.

On today's show, we sat down with two local attorneys to discuss the rights to free speech and due process for citizens and noncitizens. And, what federal threats to those rights could mean for democracy.

Guests:

  • David Loy, legal director at the First Amendment Coalition of San Diego
  • Tammy Lin, professor of immigration and supervising attorney at the University of San Diego's Legal Immigration Clinic
