Embarrassed and weary of Donald Trump's insults and treatment of groups of people, former Republican Lt. Gov. of Georgia Geoff Duncan, along with others in the group Republicans for Harris, brought warnings throughout Wisconsin. He says they're tired of making excuses for Trump's poor behavior.

Now that President-elect Donald Trump and other Republicans who ran on a platform of calling immigration an “invasion” have won their elections, the question turns to what kinds of policies they can actually pass in the next Congress—and do so without damaging an economy that depends on migrant labor for its stability.
The American Business Immigration Coalition is made up of more than 1,400 business members calling for immigration reform that is “sensible, economically important, politically smart, and morally right.” ABIC States Director Connor Gallivan said Monday on UpNorthNews Radio there are many ways to come at the challenge of immigration reform and border security—and one wrong way: mass deportation, something that would cripple nearly every sector of the US economy.
Gallivan said even if every American citizen without a job were to become employed, there would still be two million open jobs available.

SMART INVESTMENTS - Gov. Tony Evers welcomed news that Eli Lilly is going to invest $3-4 billion in a Kenosha County facility based on injectable drugs, such as Mounjaro.
It’s a project that got its start in 2019, when the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation awarded $1.5 million to a smaller company, Nexus Pharmaceuticals.
Pat Kreitlow takes us through the timeline to show how the state’s investment paid off in a much better way compared to how former Gov. Scott Walker was prepared to give billions of taxpayer dollars to Foxconn in that same part of the state.

Brad Woodhouse, with Protect Our Care, reacts to Trump’s healthcare nominees, raising concerns about their records and commitment to the health and wellbeing of the American people.
Interviewed on UpNorthNews Radio, Woodhouse outlined several concerning figures beyond Robert Kennedy, Jr., the nominee of President-elect Trump to be secretary of health and human services, and Dr. Mehmet Oz, whose TV-friendly health advice is frequently incomplete or dangerous.
For example, former Florida congressman Dave Weldon, someone who, like Kennedy, shares anti-vaccine conspiracy theories, is Trump’s choice to run the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Marty Makary, Trump’s pick to be commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, embraced a view of the COVID-19 virus that would let many more sick and elderly people die so that younger, healthy people would contract COVID more quickly and build up immunity.
Former Fox News personality Janette Nesheiwat, Trump’s choice for Surgeon General, has spread anti-trans rhetoric and regularly promote dietary supplements she formulates and sells online.
And Jay Bhattacharya, Trump’s pick to be director of the National Institutes of Health, said COVID’s risks were overstated and called for a weakening of safety protocols in a pandemic that would go on to take the lives of more than 1 million Americans.

BERNIE'S MESSAGE 📣 “Instead of a government of the people, by the people and for the people, we have now become a government of the billionaire class, for the billionaire class."
That's what Sen. Bernie Sanders told crowds in Wisconsin. Sanders is bringing his Fighting Oligarchy tour to key battleground states across the country, also rallying for expanded Social Security, Medicare, and free healthcare.
The packed crowd of 2,600 in Altoona last Saturday cheered and stood when Sanders said the US should guarantee healthcare to all people as a right.

BABY ANIMAL ALERT! 🐣🐐🐷🐑 Farmers are finding new ways to make their farms profitable. In Dunn County, one farmer transformed from a traditional dairy farmer to one who educates and opens up his farm to thousands of people each year. (The farm is open this weekend!)
Hear from John Govin on why this adaptability is better than what he could have ever imagined.

FEELING LONELY? People in Walworth County aren't... ANYMORE ❤️
A group of people just wanted some public transportation on Sundays so they didn't feel isolated. Now that group has evolved into so much more by connecting.
In the 40 years prior to Donald Trump’s political arrival, the Republican Party consistently tried to hammer Democrats as the party of “deficit spending.” President Trump’s “big beautiful” tax bill has changed all of that—and your retirement savings could take a hit as a result.
House Republicans passed legislation Thursday morning that calls for about $1 trillion is spending cuts to things like healthcare and food assistance, but that’s not nearly enough to cover the cost of massive tax breaks they have targeted toward corporations and the very-wealthy—so their plan could add more than $3 trillion to the federal debt over the next decade.
Investors on Wall Street, already skittish because of Trump’s trade war, reacted with alarm, as explained by financial compliance and economics expert Sean O’Malley on “Mornings with Pat Kreitlow.”
