With the government shutdown ending, Congress can get back to work doing… very little work. We’ll talk to COURIER’s Cam Stevenson in Washington, DC to see what kind of “normal” is returning to Capitol Hill. He also tells us about the searchable Epstein files database that he made with what is already available. And we’ll talk to Dan Shafer of The Recombobulation Area about Wisconsin political news, including a big ad campaign targeting US Rep. Bryan Steil for his role in allowing inflation to surge again, while cutting federal help for families facing all of those higher prices.
