In this episode of New Fashioned Conservatives, two semi-involved Wisconsin guys react to former Gov. Tommy Thompson’s strong endorsement of Tom Tiffany for governor — a major boost that helps lock in Republican unity heading into 2026.
They also slam the new “poll” pushing to oust Wisconsin GOP Chairman Brian Schimming, calling out Turning Point USA for what they see as opportunistic timing right when the party is finally starting to come together.
The hosts highlight the latest ICE detainer in Dane County: a criminal who assaulted an elderly patient in a nursing home. They point out the blunt reality — if a Democrat wins the governor’s race, this person (and others like him) gets released back into Wisconsin communities.
They discuss what they call the biggest under-the-radar story impacting Wisconsin right now (bigger than the endless legislative maps talk that nobody outside the Capitol is paying attention to), plus Kirk Bangstad’s latest nasty swipe at Rebecca Cooke — proving once again that Kirk loves dragging everyone down into the mud with him.
The guys also roast Attorney General Josh Kaul for his latest DEI nonsense.
Finally, they unload on Gov. Tony Evers for sending a nasty letter to the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) and openly defying a recent Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling.
