Angela Lang
Reverse Robinhood and Education’s Crossroads

What Does Democracy Mean to You? (Hour 2)
Matt and Angela begin the segment by highlighting Senator Cory Booker's extraordinary 25-hour speech on the Senate floor. While some critics have dismissed it as mere performance, the speech tackled several significant issues. Booker's lengthy address, which set a new record for the longest speech in the chamber, was bolstered by many Senate Democrats who asked questions to help share the speaking burden. This new record surpassed the previous one held by segregationist Senator Strom Thurmond, who filibustered for 24 hours and 18 minutes in 1957 in opposition to the Civil Rights Acts. Matt characterizes Trump as an egotistical maniac and con artist, claiming he is steering the country toward poverty and ruin. They also take calls from frustrated citizens who express their discontent with the Trump administration and the financial strain caused by his tariffs.

Weekly Best of Dom Salvia Show for Mar 15
Catch up on this week's best segments!
First, from Tuesday's first hour: in his first term President Trump was so proud of the stock market and told everyone to watch it. Now as it tumbles into correction? Not so much...
Then, from Thursday's first hour, we talk with Earl Ingram about key takeaways from Wednesday's first and only debate between candidates for the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
Next, from Monday's second hour: in discussion with Harvey Kaye, how can we discuss democracy when the press is in a stranglehold?
Finally, something good- of course! We conclude with Wednesday's final segment with Matt Rothschild sharing poetry and bird calls.
Constitution Consternation (Hour 1)
Matt Rothschild and Angela Lang, Executive Director of BLOC- Black Leaders Organizing for Community guest host today. Continuing the discussion Dom started with Angela yesterday, what should be the focus of the constantly expanding campaign for the Supreme Court of Wisconsin? Well, how about the Constitution? Many ads in these SCoWis races attempt to frame opponents as "soft on crime," which both serves as a racist dogwhistle and to reopen community wounds. Yet the state's highest court doesn't address common crime. It's time for change in these races- and we don't mean change as in money. With $59 MILLION already invested into this race, we desperately need LESS money in our judicial races. Regardless, this is the race we have this time. BLOC endorses Judge Susan Crawford for SCoWis Justice. Check your voter registration and all items on your ballot, then make a plan and vote by April 1st!
Then, moving on to another threat to our Constitution, this time our nation's. Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil is currently being held in an ICE detention facility after the Trump administration revoked his status as legal permanent resident. He has not been charged with any crime. So why is he there? Because of speech- a right protected in our First Amendment.
We end our day with something good- always. And as Matt joins us, we have a poem. Enjoy Audre Lorde's "A Woman Speaks," some bird calls, and a call to come together in community.
