Joan Esposito
Just Ask Joan (Hour 2)
The members of our regular Week In Review panel are getting an early start to the weekend, but we’ve found one woman up to the challenge of pinch-hitting for the whole crew—Chicago broadcasting legend Joan Esposito. We’ll discuss the impact of cuts being considered by Republicans in Congress. And closer to home, we’ll review the new endorsement from Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders of 3rd District congressional candidate Rebecca Cooke.

Some Bread to Go With Our Circuses? (Hour 2)
The bromance breakup of Oval Office besties makes for colorful commentary, but it doesn’t yet change anything about how Republicans in Congress are moving forward with plans to explode the national debt and slash important services to pay for a massive handout to corporations and the very-wealthy. If we’re going to get circuses from our equivalent of Rome, could we at least get some of the bread back too? We’ll talk to our Week In Review panel and avoid distractions while our pockets are being picked.

Trumps Ends Local Service Offices (Hour 2)
Step away for a moment from the big numbers about all the people President Trump is terminating. Look at the local level and you’ll see how your federal tax dollars help provide services through offices around the country. Trump and Elon Musk are closing more than a dozen such offices around our state. We’ll tell you what they do and how the guys who promised to make government more efficient are in the process of making much less efficient.
