Why Lie About Polls? The Big Lie 2.0 (Hour 1)

October 25, 2024

At the top of today's show, Maggie is honored to welcome Peter Barca, a Democrat running for Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District.

After her discussion with Secretary Barca, Maggie delves into The Big Lie 2.0. MAGA operatives have been preparing to declare victory before votes are even counted, and it's only becoming more brazen. Fake polling data showing Trump ahead of Harris by 16 points is making the rounds, sowing further distrust in the system.

Maggie also walks us through the referendum on Wisconsin's ballot and why we should all vote NO.

Some Reasonable Empowering Plans. How Refreshing! (Hour 2)

First up, it's Maggie and the Millionaires talking money. Today, Maggie talks with Dr. Heidi Shierholz, President of the Economic Policy Institute (EPI).

Today, she and Maggie talk about building an economy from the middle out and the bottom up. Because that's how we really build wealth for us all, not by waiting for wealth to trickle down.

Then, Maggie talks with Peter Barca, candidate for Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District. He's one of Wisconsin's most reasonable men in politics. Today, he shares his vision to keep Wisconsin moving in our favorite direction: forward!

Finally, a quick talk with Amanda Merkwae, Advocacy Director for ACLU Wisconsin about their efforts to protect voter rights in Wisconsin. Amanda directs us here and here to learn more about the voting and electoral process.

The stakes are too high to lose momentum now!

September 21, 2024

Attorney Mark Thomsen talks with Congressional candidate Peter Barca and current representative of the 20th AD, Christine Sinicki.

Peter Barca is the Democratic candidate for Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District. He has a long legislative career spanning three decades. Peter served for 7 years as the Assembly Minority Leader. And serve is the right word for what Peter does. His policies stem from his desire to serve his community, in whatever capacity he can.

Christine Sinicki can't stop being a community leader. She just doesn't know how! Chris has served 13 terms in the Wisconsin Assembly, representing the 20th AD with strength, courage, and persistent humor. Now, she's running for her 14th term, with the conviction that in this election, with our new fairer maps, we finally have a chance to DO SOMETHING!

“We the People” means all of us (Hour 1)

September 5, 2024

Matt Rothschild in the host seat today for Maggie. Joining Matt is Angela Lang, executive director of Black Leaders Organizing for Communities (BLOC) and current vice president of the board for ACLU Wisconsin. She and Matt address pressing needs facing our democracy, such as increasing voter access. A staggering percentage of our population cannot fulfill their civic right and responsibility to vote because they have felony records. In Wisconsin, a felony record does not prevent a citizen from voting- only an active sentence. But it's complicated, and many people are dissuaded from attempting to vote.

For the third segment, Peter Barca joins the duo to talk about why he's running to represent Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District again. Peter has a long history of representing Wisconsin and fighting for his constituents' rights. He's looking forward to getting back to his favorite work, moving Wisconsin forward.
