He presents data showing that despite positive economic indicators, a significant percentage of people believe the country is in recession due to negative media coverage. Elder also examines how media coverage changed dramatically before and after the 1992 election and how similar patterns have appeared during Trump’s presidencies.

Vivek's Opponent Won't Debate Him

In Ohio, Larry Elder discusses a political candidate, Amy Acton, who refuses to debate her opponent due to concerns about saying something wrong. Kennedy explains that she has been answering tough questions for two and a half years and is open to engaging with voters. However, she refuses to participate in a debate with her opponent, whom she considers a chronic liar and a family attacker. Elder questions the logic behind not debating, especially given the numerous issues facing the state, such as high costs, poor school quality, and homelessness. He suggests that many Democratic candidates are avoiding debates to protect their image rather than engaging in meaningful discussions about the state's problems.

Wisconsin Celebrates 15 Years of Act 10

Fifteen years ago, Wisconsin implemented Act 10, a significant reform package spearheaded by Governor Scott Walker. This legislation tackled labor policy and fiscal issues to address a $3 billion budget shortfall.

Joining Hugh Hewitt to discuss the impact of Act 10 is Jonathan Williams, president of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC). Williams highlights the broader implications of Wisconsin's reforms, noting that similar efforts in states like Arizona, Tennessee, and Utah have also achieved notable success. Despite initial opposition from progressive groups, Wisconsin's economy has flourished, demonstrating the effectiveness of these strategic changes.
