Scholten (scholtenforiowa.com), a former minor league pitcher turned Senate candidate, joins to share the grassroots energy behind his campaign to unseat Joni Ernst. Meanwhile, Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul celebrates a pivotal Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling that reinforces the state’s separation of powers. And Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson weighs in on Trump’s divisive tactics, calling for peaceful protest as a vital countermeasure.
