ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this week’s Tick Report, Trump declares “war” on ticks and mosquitos through an executive order promising a 90% reduction in the populations of the “foreign, invasive” species. Of course, the order makes no mention of global warming as the cause of skyrocketing tick populations.
We dive into big news this week that Democratic gubernatorial candidate David Crowley is publicly embracing a BadgerCare Public Option to dramatically expand access to quality healthcare.
We debrief the New MU Law Poll which says the governor’s race is too close. Further, the poll finds a stunning 68% of voters say they favor a statewide ban on data center construction for at least a year. We ask why elected officials are so out of step with their own voters.
We look at the mega donors who are fueling the Tom Tiffany campaign and state legislative Republican candidates. Finally, Robert schools us on Citizen Action’s new Democracy Defenders program to equip our leaders with action plans to confront Trump regime efforts and disrupt the midterm election.
