On UpNorthNews with Pat Kreitlow, the electors who decide each presidential election gathered in state capitols this week, and one of Donald Trump’s Wisconsin electors, former Gov. Tommy Thompson, said it’s time for everyone to “turn the page” on Trump’s fake electors plot to steal the 2020 election. Pat Kreitlow responds: Hell, no. Trump can pardon in federal cases, but state cases like the one in Wisconsin need to keep moving toward justice for the voters.
On the Earl Ingram Show, Earl is joined by John Diedrich from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel to discuss his article regarding a woman who's son accidentally shot himself in the hand with her gun. They talk about the effect that her charges have had on her life and the racial disparities surrounding youth gun injuries and deaths.
Finally, on Matenaer On Air, US Representative Mark Pocan joins the show to talk about the tragic shooting in Madison and discusses some of the paths which need to be taken to try to create change. He also reveals a horrendous truth about news, and the need for more deaths to be deemed "important to cover".

Behind The Gun: What Happens Next? (Hour 1)
Appointments to Wisconsin's Joint Finance Committee are being made, but don't get too excited; the imbalance will remain and we don't expect much to get done to actually help the people of this state. Hey, do you want a job in the Trump Cabinet? Are you worth and did you give tens of millions of dollars to his campaign? If so, you might be like this Wisconsin businessman. In the last half hour of the show, Investigative Reporter John Diedrich from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel returns to the show to discuss a new article he has written having to do with unintentional gun violence, children and the parents who are responsible.
