Dom Salvia
The Reconciliation Process (Hour 2)
Every Monday Maggie is joined by a special guest from the Center for American Progress Action Fund. Today we talk with Bobby Kogan, Senior Director of Federal Budget Policy, to discuss the upcoming budget reconciliation process, its significance, and how Republicans will try to change major policies through reconciliation, largely focused on tax cuts for the ultra wealthy and corporations. Bobby, known for simplifying complex topics, has held key economic policy roles in the Biden-Harris administration and worked with the Senate Budget Committee and Senators Patty Murray and Bernie Sanders.
Maggie is then joined by Dom Salvia for "In Case You Missed It," continuing the discussion about Donald Trump's historic sentencing today for fraud in New York, especially Trump's attorney's statement that there should never be any politically motivated prosecutions - you don't say, Todd. Maggie calls Judge Merchan a genius and Dom agrees. Find out why and tune in!

Holding The 119th Congress Accountable (Hour 2)
At the last minute, Mike Johnson was reelected as Speaker of the House, and the 119th Congress has entered session. To discuss what lies ahead, Maggie is joined by Laura Rodriguez, the Vice President of Government Affairs at the Center for American Progress Action Fund. President-elect Trump ran on bringing down prices for the average American, but a disproportionate amount of his cabinet members are millionaires and billionaires. Maggie and Laura talk through what a new round of Trump tax cuts could look like.
At the bottom of the hour, Dom Salvia returns to the show for another edition of In Case You Missed It. He and Maggie listen back to a conversation they had on the day of the insurrection in 2021.

Civic Media Spotlight for January 4th & 5th (Hour 2)
To begin the second hour this weekend, John and Gordy, of WMDX's morning program the John and Gordy Show, talk with Jim Santelle about being an intern at the White House in the summer of 1980 during the Carter administration, and how his presidency is unjustly overlooked.
Then, the Earl Ingram Show is joined by Alan Borsuk, Senior Fellow in Public Policy at Marquette Law School, to discuss the issues facing Milwaukee Public Schools. Earl and Alan talk about the politics of how the state funds education, how mismanagement led to the current problems, and the path ahead for the district.
After that on the Dom Salvia Show, Dom and cohost of the day Earl Ingram discuss the desperate need for elder leaders to pass the torch. With the average age of a US Senator being 68 years and a distinct lack of youth voices in politics, it's no wonder young people didn't turn up to vote. We need elected officials who represent AND resemble their constituents.
We close out the weekend with a segment from WGBW and WISS's morning program, Maino and the Mayor. The guys talk about this day in 1967 when the famed Ice Bowl took place in Green Bay. The Packers beat the Cowboys, and the goalpost came down. We visited this great memory with several guests, including former reporter Tony Walter. He shares many great stories based on that day in his book "Ice Bowl: The Game That Will Never Die."

Civic Media Spotlight for December 21st & 22nd (Hour 2)
It was 80 years ago this week that the Battle of The Bulge took place in WWII, and 100-year-old veteran Jack Kraszewski of Pulaski joined Maino & The Mayor and shared memories of that very day. Not only did he serve our country, but he also came back and became a cheesemaker and later a brewer of Schlitz beer in Milwaukee. A wonderful gentleman that we are honored to have met.
Then, on the Dom Salvia Show, Dom and cohost of the day Earl Ingram address the looming government shutdown and who is casting its shadow: Elon Musk. No one elected Musk, but people DID elect their legislators, who are now being overtly threatened by Trump and Musk.
On the John & Gordy Show, the guys are joined by Mike McCabe to talk about his latest digital piece on the parallels between 1930’s Bank Robbers and Luigi Mangione as folk heroes in the American psyche.
Last but not least, Todd Allbaugh Show has been following the closure of two-year UW campuses since the canary first stopped singing, and the saga is unfortunately far from over. A new article from WORT details that the Board of Regents spent a staggering $51 million on consultants over the last four years- over THREE TIMES the budget deficit in that same period that led to catastrophic layoffs at UW Oshkosh. We know the Republicans are behind this, but where are the Democrats? They aren't exactly trying to stop it.

Biden Pardoning (Hour 2)
Maggie Daun kicks off the discussion by sharing the news of Kash Patel's appointment to lead the FBI, alongside Donald Trump's decision to name Charles Kushner as the ambassador to France. She then touches on Pete Hegseth and his rather outrageous behavior at company events.
The conversation shifts to the controversial blanket pardon granted to Hunter Biden by his father, Joe Biden. Dom Salvia joins Maggie to review some of the week's significant news stories in a segment called "In Case You Missed It." The debate heats up as they tackle the challenges of defending the rule of law.

Civic Media Spotlight for the Week of November 18th (Hour 1)
On the Dom Salvia Show, Maggie Daun sticks around after her 2-4pm show to do some Overtime radio-ing with Dom as she does every Tuesday! On this week's Over Time w/Maggie Daun, former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman faces a SERIOUS disciplinary filing from our state's Office of Lawyer Regulations. For, well, violating just about every attorney ethics standard there is.
Then on the Todd Allbaugh Show, Todd dives into the story developing in Mauston, where a series of failed referendums to fund their public schools have left the school district in dire straits. They may have to dissolve completely! With the help of a caller who used to teach in Milwaukee, Todd explains how we got to this point, as well as some tricky ways our GOP-led state legislature diverts even more money to private schools.
After that on UpNorthNews Radio, whatever reason folks were thinking of when voting for Donald Trump, they’d better prepare for the impact on food prices and the economy. Dairy farmer Hans Breitenmoser talks to Pat Kreitlow about how mass deportations would cripple every part of America’s food supply chain and higher tariffs would lead to skyrocketing grocery prices.
In the final segment of this Spotlight, the John and Gordy Show is joined by Tim Slekar of the BustED Pencils podcast, to talk about the second Trump Administration’s announcement of Linda McMahon as the Secretary of Education.
