Nick Ramos, executive director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, joins us to break down their formal ethics complaint against judge Brad Schimel. Schimel is also, of course, a candidate for Wisconsin's highest court. And he's been going around 'joking' about begging on his hands and knees for campaign support. Meaning money. He's 'joking' about begging for money. As a judge. In direct violation of Wisconsin's Supreme Court code of ethics. Nick joins us to discuss how and why WDC filed their complaint and what they hope to achieve with it. Beyond this apparent financial impropriety, Nick and Dom discuss another of Schimel's concerning behaviors- pre-judging cases that are likely to appear before Wisconsin's highest court. We're especially concerned with his already well established position on Wisconsin's 1849 abortion law.
We finish the hour turning to the once Proud Boys, you can call 'em the Broke Boys now. Or really you can call them anything except the Proud Boys, as they've lost ownership of their name in a bit of truly tasty just desserts.
