In this episode of New Fashioned Conservatives, two semi-involved Wisconsin guys unpack the latest shake-ups in the 2026 gubernatorial race, with Democratic State Sen. Kelda Roys launching her bid, railing against "extremists" like Trump and Musk while pushing progressive priorities on reproductive rights and workers' protections. State Rep. Francesca Hong jumping in as a self-proclaimed "wild card" socialist, leveraging her bartender roots to champion working-class issues like affordable housing and school funding—yanking the Democratic primary sharply to the left and fracturing the field further. On the GOP side, U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany teases a high-stakes event next week hinting at a "special announcement," fueling speculation of his entry after polls showed him dominating the primary with Trump-level support. The hosts roast Democratic state senators for their unhinged defense of illegal immigrants: Sen. Chris Larson's debunked claim that a Milwaukee teacher's aide died due to ICE deportation (she actually self-deported and is alive), and Sen. Tim Carpenter's chaotic lunge over a table to snatch the committee chairman's gavel during a heated hearing.
