We talk about tonight's opportunity for the public to speak at the Wausau Council meeting conerning the city 2026 budget. Also about the Mayor's veto threat. It is not a sign of strength. Also, the importance of talking about both spending and taxes when discussing budget issues....not just saying "we spend too much." Also a look at another state trying to use Gerrymandering to help the GOP keep congressional control in the 2026 midterms. Why can't we just think about what is right? Plus a long night for folks watching the World Series.
