United Wisconsin: What Is Fusion Voting? (Hour 1)

April 16, 2025

This Wednesday, Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project joins us via phone to share his perspective on President Trump’s deportations without due process. As more information becomes public, things are looking even worse for the rule of law in our country.

Then, Alan Robinson, co-founder of Herbal Aspects, joins the show to talk about the recent rumblings about medical marijuana legislation coming down the pipeline. While he doesn't want to harsh anyone's buzz, he says that anything put forward by Republicans will be sure to contain a poison pill.

Former Dane County Sheriff Dave Mahoney joins the Devil's to talk about his op-ed in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on January 6th. As someone who oversaw a massive peaceful protest himself during Act 10, he says he's confident that he can say that the insurrection was not a peaceful protest.
