We’ll review what Gov. Tony Evers had to say in his annual State of the State address and whether some of his proposals will attract new Republican support in an era of fairer legislative maps. We’ll get analysis from Democratic strategist Joe Zepecki. And we’ll question what made management at a Milwaukee TV station think it was a good idea to fire a well-liked meteorologist after she criticized Elon Musk for his Nazi-adjacent salute at the presidential inauguration.
