Joining Vicki on the show today, are investigative reporters Jessica McBride and Jim Piwowarczyk, from Wisconsin Right Now, who have the scoop on an alleged massive marijuana growing operation in Franklin and on the equally massive backlog of cases in the Milwaukee County Criminal Court system. Then Marc Morano, founder of ClimateDepot.com, talks about the UN's "Our Common Agenda." Dr. Jay Richards, co-author of "The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic Into a Catastrophe," joins to talk children, COVID, masks, media and panic. President of the MacIver Institute, Brett Healy, explains the difference between the number of ICU COVID-19 patients and the number of staffed ICU beds. Plus, Judge Jim Troupis makes one of his regular appearances in the studio to talk about trust in the government...and he also invents a new word.

The news of the world has Vicki in a bad mood. Not helping matters is FreedomProject Academy/FreedomProject Media's Dr. Duke Pesta, who talks extensively about the UN's power grab, Agenda 21. Then there's RiseUp Wisconsin's Sheriff David Clarke, who has an answer to the question, "What should a GOP response look like?" In better news, state Rep. Barb Dittrich (Dist. 38) joins us to talk about the bill she's just introduced, which would allow parents to utilize both the Open Enrollment and School Choice programs to protect their children's medical freedom and choose the school that is right for them. Plus, media director for Federation for Immigration Reform, Ira Mehlman, joins us to talk suppression of information about the U.S./Mexico border and roving co-host Brian Schimming is back to talk about Madison.

Vicki's back and she's talking power and politics. Joining her is Sen. Ron Johnson who has some comments on the situation at Fort McCoy, Gen. Mark Milley and the vaccine mandates currently sweeping the nation. Attorney general candidate and poly-sci professor Ryan Owens adds a new job to his already impressive resume - investigative reporter. He breaks down his Empower Wisconsin story, "AG Kaul defends convicted rapist in employment case." Congressional candidate (U.S. House Dist. 3 Wisconsin) and retired Navy SEAL Derrick Van Orden assesses the current situation in Afghanistan, American and in the armed forces. Brett Healy, president of the MacIver Institute, updates us on the state of COVID-19 in Wisconsin. Plus, author Wesley J. Smith, chair of the Discovery Institute's Center on Human Exceptionalism, talks us through his latest story in The Epoch Times, "UN Power Grab."

Congressional candidate (Dist. 3) and retired Navy SEAL Derrick Van Orden talks about the situation in Afghanistan and the situation in America.

Vicki's back in the studio! While she does take time to tell us what she was up to, she's here to talk politics. Deputy council for Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, Dan Lennington, joins the show to discuss the legality of the COVID-19 vaccine mandate. David Johnson, CEO of Strategic Vision PR Group, also joins us with to talk falling poll numbers for the Democrats, why they don't care and why they probably should. Then we have a man with some STRONG words for Gen. Mark Milley in the wake of his statement on his phone calls to China - it's Jed Babbin, former U.S. Deputy Undersecretary of Defense. Plus, Judge Jim Troupis is in the studio talking about the police, concerns over Milley's statements and the COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

Empower Wisconsin/Wisconsin Spotlight Executive Director Matt Kittle has the mic for one more day before Vicki gets back and he's making the most of it. Joining him is U.S. Rep. Scott Fitzgerald (Dist. 5) talking about Biden's war on civil liberties and overreaching COVID-19 vaccine mandates. Later, we hear from RNC Spokeswoman Preya Samsundar about Gov. Tony Evers troubled political record - and talk what it might mean for Wisconsin in the future. Also, Eric Boehm, Matt's old friend from Reason, stops in to share some laughs, crack some bad jokes and talk about Biden's $3.5 trillion budget. Plus, we hear from those most affected by Biden and Ever's COVID mandates - you.

Matt Kittle continues to stand in for Vicki (for the next couple of days anyway). Joining him is Lora Ries, director of the Center for Technology Policy and senior research fellow for Homeland Security and The Heritage Foundation, who twice worked with the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security, and says we're even less safe than we were before 9/11. Also on is president of Convention of States Action, Mark Meckler, talking poll numbers for Biden - which are not as rosy as the Democrats would probably prefer. Bill Osmulski, content director for MacIver Institute, is with us as well, talking about the Lodi School District’s professional development training - which includes, you guessed it, equity. Plus: maskless in Wuhan, COVID-19 mandate hypocrisy, being too woke to remember 9/11, Facebook scandals, Packers Schadenfreude, and Empower Wisconsin's Tool of the Week.

With Empower Wisconsin/Wisconsin Spotlight's Matt Kittle is still behind the mic, we tackle the latest developments and the stonewalling lawmakers are experiencing from elections officials - joining us is Rep. Janel Brandtjen (Dist 22), chairwoman of the Assembly Campaign Elections Committee. Then as we prepare to mark the 20th anniversary of one of the darkest days in this nation’s history, have our so-called leaders forgotten 9/11? Kevin Nicholson thinks so. The volunteer president of No Better Friend Corp. and Marine veteran of the War In Afghanistan has written an eye-opening column on the subject — published today at EmpowerWisconsin.org. U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson also makes an appearance, talking about Joe Biden’s sweeping mandates requiring employees at businesses with 100 workers or more get COVID-19 vaccines. Plus, where were you on Sept. 10th? Listeners call in with their stories from the day before the world changed.

Vicki is on vacation, leaving Matt Kittle in charge of the mic for the next few days. Today, the mind behind Wisconsin Spotlight and Empower Wisconsin talks with U.S. Rep. Mike Gallagher (Dist. 8) on Dr. Fauci's involvement in gain of function research in China and with Dr. Will Flanders, research director for Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, about Gov. Evers plummeting poll numbers. Also making an appearance is former lieutenant governor, Rebecca Kleefisch, who has announced her gubernatorial run, and state Rep. Shae Sortwell (Dist. 2), who has co-authored a bill that holds Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and the rest of Big Tech accountable for censoring speech. Plus, angry tacos, Australia and considerations on the Constitution, freedom and history.

With more and more hospitals demanding their staff get the COVID-19 vaccine and more and more nurses refusing, the nation is looking at a nursing crisis. Sen. Ron Johnson joins us to address this and his most recent letter to the FDA. Following is FreedomProject Academy's Dr. Duke Pesta, who'll give you another reason to pull your kids out of public school (if you didn't have enough already). President of Less Government Seton Motley is also on, talking about China and reimaging global capitalism, as author John R. Lott, who shows us the connection the Democrats would like to have between the no fly list and gun ownership. Julie Kelly, from American Greatness, helps us wrap up with the story of Rosanne Boyland, another protester who lost her life on Jan. 6th. Plus, an important announcement from Vicki at the end of the show.
