MILWAUKEE - We welcome Citizen Action’s Movement Politics Director, JoAnna Bautch, to discuss her new podcast, This is NOT that, which was launched this Tuesday on the 1 year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd. The panel reviews the BadgerCare legislative special session that came and went quickly while Legislative Republicans spent time attacking transgendered kids and severely cutting public school funding. Robert discusses the reasons behind a new exodus of teachers in Wisconsin and how the state opening up too soon is a threat to those with pre-existing conditions and suppressed immunity. State Senator Chris Larson enters the U.S. Senate race while the GOP attacks Sarah Godlewski and national Democrats and all mainline pundits increasingly agree that the GOP is a threat to democracy itself. We close by welcoming Citizen Action Driftless Organizing Cooperative organizer, Ben Wilson, to discuss the proposed expansion of the Roth Feeder Pig CAFO in Crawford County and local efforts to stop it.
