Happy Friday! To kick off today’s show, Civic Media Political Editor and founder of The Recombobulation Area Dan Shafer joins us live from the WAUK studios to share some breaking news. Ostensibly, the Republican-led state legislature is finally getting serious about passing a state budget. Realizing that they cannot do it on their own, they have now invited Democratic State Senator Dianne Hesselbein to the table for negotiations. While this move inspires some hope that a budget may yet be passed by July, we maintain a healthy skepticism. Yesterday’s Joint Finance Committee meeting was rescheduled to 10 am today before being delayed twice more to 2 pm and now 4 pm as we began our show.
After that discussion, we are joined once again by our friend and legal expert Matt Flynn. Yesterday, we spoke with him about some state Supreme Court decisions. Today, the national Supreme Court has released an opinion that may put birthright citizenship in danger.
