Dive into the heart of community issues with 'Lean Local,' hosted by former Green Bay Mayor Jim Schmitt. This refreshing political and issues program bypasses traditional left-versus-right rhetoric. Instead, it 'leans local' with insightful discussions and grassroots solutions, focusing on what truly matters in our neighborhoods and communities.

To start off this hour of Civic Media Spotlight, we tune in to a segment from the Earl Ingram Show this week. Earl was joined by Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Judge Susan Crawford. They talk about what led her to choose her career path, the biggest issues she sees impacting this election, and how she hopes to navigate the highly partisan environment in Madison.

Then, on the Dom Salvia Show, Maggie Daun sticks around for the overtime with Dom to dig into the MEMO issued by Trump's White House stalling all federal loans and grants. Not an Executive Order. Not a directive to Congress to draft budget laws. A MEMO. Dom says the message is the chaos. Maggie says it's the fear. In truth, it's probably both.

After that on Maino & the Mayor, the director of the "Green and Gold Movie," Anders Lindwall, calls in to discuss the movie. Anders says that the movie is his heartfelt tribute to rural America's strength and perseverance. The movie stars Craig T. Nelson, and at its core, the movie is a tribute to the unsung heroes who shape communities and preserve traditions through kindness and hard work.

Last but not least, Nite Lite with Pete Schwaba welcomed filmmaker Nathan Deming to the show. Nathan talks about his upcoming film, February. Nathan shares dates and cities where the film is screening and Pete takes a Wisconsin based quiz that Nathan prepared.

To begin this hour of Civic Media Spotlight, we take the beginning of a conversation with former Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn on the Maggie Daun Show. Harry joined Maggie this week in-studio to discuss the recently pardoned J6 felons and the other craziness going on during the first week of President Donald Trump’s second term.

Then, on a Wednesday edition of the Todd Allbaugh Show, Todd visits from Pat Kreitlow of UpNorthNews Radio and Trygve Olson of The Lincoln Project! On April 1st, Wisconsin will vote to elect a new state supreme court justice. Every day, we discover new reasons why conservative candidate Brad Schimel is completely unfit to serve our state. At a Republican community event last year, Schimel was caught on a mic calling for another “bloody revolution” to get American freedom back from “the socialists.”

Then, on UpNorthNews Radio this week, Pat discussed how some Wisconsin legislators are considering a new way to hide from taxpayers the true cost of the programs that give out taxpayer dollars for vouchers to private, often religious schools. He spoke to Chris Thiel, legislative policy specialist for Milwaukee Public Schools, about this new shell game that would force every Wisconsin taxpayer to fund two parallel school systems in the state.

Wrapping up this hour with a segment from the John & Gordy Show, the guys welcomed back Mike McCabe and the three spend some time on the topic of oligarchy. They also share how we need not despair right now, and that we can look to the future and plan to make some real advances as a society.

In today's second hour, Dom continues to take your calls on GOP hypocrites like State Sen. Cory Tomczyk who want "In God We Trust" plastered prominently on public school walls. Dom also dives into when it is or isn't appropriate to push back on religious beliefs or organizations. Sometimes, Dom can come off pretty harshly about religions, but ultimately, human society is very biased towards those who are religious. Even if you ignore historical atrocities like the crusades and inquisitions, churches operate without paying any taxes.

Earlier this week, Dom brought us a story from Milwaukee about a Puerto Rican family allegedly detained by ICE for speaking Spanish in public. Earlier today, ICE themselves have reported the story to be false. We will keep you updated on this and similar stories as they develop.

Our Republican legislators here in Wisconsin are always looking out for us. Not. Three WI lawmakers have proposed a requirement for all public schools to display "In God We Trust" on their walls. Why should all of those who aren't Christian pay for this? How exactly is that going to prevent school shootings? Also, if you dig in to the individuals proposing this legislation, people like Sen. Cory Tomczyk aren't exactly moral paragons. Sen. Tomczyk was caught using homophobic slurs against a teenager and tried to sue a local nonprofit newspaper for publishing the story.

Our friend Jim Santelle sticks around into today's second hour. He and Dom continue the conversation about yesterday's tragic plane and helicopter collision and the heartless response from President Trump. As the investigation continues, we will keep you updated on the REAL cause of the accident. Dom and Jim take your calls on this horrible disaster and our president's subsequent blame game.

Jim Santelle of Amicus: A Law Review joins Dom today to address yesterday's tragic plane crash. In this time of national mourning, our president is further dividing us, blaming the disastrous collision on DEI. President Donald Trump has always used his time in the public eye to spew word vomit, but it's particularly telling that he can't even bring Americans together after the deadliest American plane crash in over 20 years.
