News out just an hour before we recorded this is that the Wisconsin Supreme Court has accepted to use the "least change" maps of Gov. Tony Evers for Wisconsin redistricting. To help us shed light on the matter, we brought in expert Jay Heck, the executive director of Common Cause Wisconsin, a nonpartisan group that has pushed for a redistricting process that takes the map-making process out of the politician's hands.

EMERGENCY POD: Wisconsin Supreme Court accepts Gov. Tony Evers redistricting maps

President-elect Donald Trump made grand promises about grocery promises and is now re-negotiating that deal.

In his Time Person of the Year interview, Trump flip flops on bringing prices down.

“It’s hard to bring things down once they’re up,” Trump said in his Time Magazine “Person of the Year” interview published Thursday, referring to grocery prices. “You know, it’s very hard … But I think that they will. I think that energy is going to bring them down.”

We discuss how Democrats knew that was an impossible campaign promise and all the factors that surround prices going up, plus how Trump's policies on tariffs and deporting immigrants will actually raise prices.

What happened — Democrats lose but was it THAT bad in Wisconsin?

Republicans in Wisconsin, again, are putting a confusing question on your fall ballot that could take away your voting rights. Multiple organizations, nonprofits and the Democratic Party are saying vote no on this question: 

Voters must be prepared to answer this question on the November 5 ballot ⬇️

❌ Question: “Eligibility to vote. Shall section 1 of article III of the constitution, which deals with suffrage, be amended to provide that only a United States citizen age 18 or older who resides in an election district may vote in an election for national, state, or local office or at a statewide or local referendum?"

We get into the reason why this question is not only confusing, but dangerous for voting rights of everyone in the state -- "every" being the key word.
