Today we bring you Lake Effect from inside the Panther Arena in Downtown Milwaukee. We share what unfolded on the first day inside the convention – including the long-awaited V-P announcement – and outside where there was a planned protest. We tell you about the Great Milwaukee Block Party, which is hosting events all week long in what organizers are calling “joyous rebellion” of the RNC. Plus, we hear from a conservative environmental group that is sponsoring this week’s RNC.
Guests:
- Tommy Piggott, Republican National Committee Strategic Communications Director
- Benji Backer, founder and executive chairman of the American Conservation Coalition
