Resistance to Revolution

We discuss the inspiring resistance to Trump during his first two weeks in office and the critical need to develop the positive progressive vision needed to inspire a political revolution. We highlight the imperiled nomination of Amway billionaire Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education and the monumental fight ahead on the Supreme Court nomination of ultra conservative Neil Gorsuch. We also welcome State Representative Gordon Hintz to discuss his leadership against Scott Walker's Manufacturing and Agriculture tax loophole that will cost the state $1.4 billion by 2019 and where more than 78% of the tax break goes to individual tax filers who earn more than $1 million. Robert also updates us on the successful media tour of Wausau and Eau Claire for the alternative progressive state budget, “A Wisconsin Budget for All.” Finally, we have an update on the successful launch of a new independent-progressive radio station on Southeast Wisconsin, News Talk 1510 Milwaukee-Waukesha.
