Politics - Year In Review With Jessie Opoien

2023/12/22

You could say that 2023 was a comparatively quiet political year in Wisconsin. “Comparatively” being the key word there. At least we didn’t have any state residents, you know, attempting to kidnap the Governor of Michigan or anything like that. The bar’s pretty low when that’s a good political year in Wisconsin. BUT…there were some 2023 developments under the State Capitol Dome that are worth recalling. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel State Capitol Reporter Jessie Opoien shares her top picks of

With no end in sight, it may seem premature to wonder about will happen in the aftermath of the Israel-Gaza conflict. Thursday 8 O'Clock Buzz guest Jennifer Lowenstein poses this question and more with host Tony Castañeda.
