Supply-siders now led by Trump enacted tax cuts they claimed, once again, would grow federal revenues. Instead, they are sure to add yet another trillion dollars to the national debt in the next few years.
The Child Sales Tax Rebate and the sales tax holiday continue our ongoing efforts to reduce taxes on Wisconsin citizens, and we’ll look for more opportunities to make progress in the future.
As the primary election nears, I find myself worried about progressive disunity, and the threat that it could help deliver a third term to Scott Walker.
As he seeks a third term as Wisconsin governor, Scott Walker’s campaign strategy has evoked laughter and apprehension – laughter because he is so shamelessly contradicts his own past in seeking to make nice with the progressive forces lined up against him, yet apprehension because his 10-1 money advantage and slippery history raise worries he can deceive enough voters with another change of skin.
The Daily Standard Podcast features a discussion on whether GOP candidates should embrace President Trump and Alex Jones’ removal from Facebook, Apple, and YouTube.

These members tout Trump’s dangerous and extreme agenda—voting in line with Trump as much as 99 percent of the time. They’ve consistently voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act care, to protect the special interests and profits for the 1%, to defund Planned Parenthood, and against a woman’s right to choose.

Collins will no longer be serving on the House Energy and Commerce Committee.”
