WTMJ hosts Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey sat down with Democratic State Senator Francesca Hong, the latest candidate in Wisconsin’s governor’s race. They pressed her on her messaging strategy, her “socialist” label, the state’s budget surplus, and education policy. Later, the hosts weighed in on ABC’s indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel after his comments on Charlie Kirk’s assassination and President Trump, and what the controversy could mean for late-night TV.
In the second hour, Steve and Kristin were joined by Urban Milwaukee president Jeramey Jannene to discuss FEMA funding, traffic-calming construction, and Milwaukee’s growth — from airport expansion and Marcus Center support to new breweries and holiday bus service.
