bondi-bombs-2026MILWAUKEE - Holy Bondi! Following a recap of Attorney General Pam Bondi’s bizarrely pugilistic appearance before the House Judiciary Committee. Next we dive into this week in the Trump Regime. This week ICE agents are flowing into small towns in Western Wisconsin while a possibly shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security looms due to Republican refusal to rein in ICE. Meanwhile Wisconsin U.S. House approves Brian Steils continues to burnish is MAGA credentials as his “show your papers” voter suppression bill passes the House.

New research finds climate change is making the Great Lakes’ winters shorter, but future tracking will be harder as the Trump regime scrubs climate change data. We discuss packed Public Service Commission (PSC) hearings where the vast majority of attendees demand rejection of a special electricity deal devised by We Energies for Data Centers. But will the PSC listen to the people or cave once again to the Big Utilities and their Big Tech partners? We also talk about a new Legislative Republican bill that would slow the revolving door between the PSC and big utilities.

We close with a discussion of the negotiations between Governor Evers and Legislative Republican leaders on the $2.5 billion surplus. Are both the Governor and the Republicans hellbent on giving away what remains of the surplus without dealing with the chronic under funding of public education, transit, and other vital public services?

Listen to the show.
