Guests: Michael Smith
Crute takes a field trip to the state Capitol building, where Congressman Mark Pocan holds a press conference to talk about a variety of topics.
First, Pocan gives his thoughts on yesterday's US-Mexico border photo op by Republicans. Of course his colleague Van Orden was there! As Ron Johnson works to block funding to Ukraine and Israel over border funding, Pocan says that he thinks RoJo just doesn't want to work...
Then, Pocan gives his on-the-ground report of what he saw on January 6, 2021. With the three-year anniversary just around the corner, Pocan helps set the record straight on whether or not the crowds were violent that day (they were).
Sticking with January 6, retired Rear Admiral Michael Smith joins the Devil's to talk about why he is speaking out about that day. He says that, while military officers are usually supposed to stay out of politics, January 6 wasn't just simple politics, as he warns about why he's concerned if Trump gets elected once again.
