On today’s show:

— Matt talks fall weather.

— The “No Kings Rally” was the biggest political protest in U.S. history, but the national media is barely covering it.

— Matt argues that media bias is creating a dangerous political environment where Democrats are villainized.

— The consequences of unchecked political extremism are severe, as Matt and Jeff Stein discuss the absurdity of people believing a Democratic Socialist is worse than a Nazi.

— Trump’s reckless behavior is highlighted, including his plans to add a ballroom to the White House and the lack of media scrutiny on his mental fitness.

— The federal government shutdown is having a disastrous impact, causing emergency food cuts and putting 440,000 Minnesotans at risk of losing SNAP benefits.

— Rural healthcare is under threat, with the Mayo Clinic Health System cutting critical labor and delivery services in Owatonna.

National and presidential expert Jeff Stein joins Matt for his regular Wednesday conversation to break down the latest in national politics. They dive into the ongoing government shutdown, the lack of negotiation from the Republican side, and the growing evidence of a Nazi problem within some GOP circles and its staff. Jeff and Matt also touch on why this political climate is driving people away from politics and how the current Supreme Court is actively rolling back established law.
