Summary

It’s the Political Power Hour as Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey are joined by Joe Zepecki and Bill McCoshen to debate the ongoing conflict with Iran, party fundraising struggles, and what early signs say about the 2026 elections. The panel also examines the impact of recent Supreme Court decisions on redistricting, internal party challenges in both Wisconsin and nationally, and controversy surrounding a proposed taxpayer-funded White House ballroom. The show wraps with election integrity discussions, Grab Bags, and the Week-In-Review.
