Republican campaign seems deliberately quiet. So why elevate abortion issue?

Thirteen states and nine European countries have legalized medically assisted death for people with terminal illness. Wisconsin isn’t one of them. This is in spite of repeated efforts by families and legislators here to pass a compassionate right-to-die act.

What’s going on in Minneapolis right now — and less dramatically across the rest of the country — is the very face of the Trump Administration.

It seems the chaos in Minnesota is as much about drawing attention away from corruption scandals as it is about opposition to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

Trump ran for president repeatedly vowing to deport people who entered the United States illegally.

Rep. Mark Born, R-Beaver Dam, and Sen. Howard Marklein, R-Spring Green, noted yesterday some of the boost was driven by a strong stock market and resulting tax collections. “We must be careful when committing to ongoing spending using one-time money,” the GOP lawmakers said.

Since its inception, the FED has managed to cause 14 recessions, 6 financial crises, and bail-out the owners of the FED at Americans’ expense. So will the Trump DOJ’s probe bear fruit that makes this “independent” institution more accountable to the public? Or just more partisan?
