MTG's Apology Tour: MAGA Rebrand?

New headphones, fresh perspective — WTMJ’s Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey open the day asking one big question: is the country actually beginning to heal? After months of division and political tension, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is making headlines with what some are calling an “apology tour,” expressing regret for her past rhetoric after seeing the same behavior from President Donald Trump. Steve and Kristin ask whether this signals a national softening — especially following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. Later, they’re joined by Professor Susan Yackee, director of the La Follette School of Public Affairs at UW–Madison, to talk about teaching civil dialogue and encouraging students (and citizens) to engage across political lines. Her challenge to listeners: to have curiosity. In the second hour, Steve and Kristin switch gears to Wisconsin politics — the crowded Democratic primary for governor and the debate over legalizing online sports betting. Plus, Kristin’s story about her friend’s inspiring nonprofit MS Run the US and a few laughs as Steve leaves her to close out the show solo.
