Department Of War; What Is It Good For?

WTMJ hosts Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey are joined by Republican strategist Bill McCoshen and Democratic strategist Joe Zepecki (who's in D.C.!) for a spirited breakdown of the week’s biggest political stories. They dig into U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Senate hearing on vaccines, Florida’s rollback of mandates, and the latest jobs report after President Trump’s firing of the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The panel also weighs in on Wisconsin’s gubernatorial race, Congressman Tom Tiffany’s endorsement plea, and Trump’s push to rebrand the Pentagon as the Department of War. Plus they wrap things up with their signature “Say Something Nice” and “Grab Bags” segments. Beyond politics, Steve and Kristin explore return-to-office mandates hitting major companies, new rulings on airline passenger compensation, plus a sneak peek at the brand-new Point Taken newsletter.
