A Cabinet or More Like a Junk Drawer? (Hour 2)
The US Senate this week is busy with some contentious nominees for President-elect Trump’s Cabinet, with raised voices and numerous controversies. Sean Duffy, by comparison, had smooth sailing as the likely Transportation Secretary—but the question remains: Why?

Plus another round of visits with new Wisconsin legislators: Sen. Jodi Habush Sinykin and Rep. Tara Johnson.
