For Donald Trump to win in November, he needs to remind voters that their lives were better when he was president and that they will be better again if he is reelected.
Another semester, another leadership failure. UWM Chancellor Mark Mone continues to speak with a forked tongue, carefully parsing statements to please all sides, while in practice aiding and abetting anti-Israel activists in breaking university rules.
Boycott and divestment campaigns helped end apartheid in South Africa. In the U.S., they’ve helped secure better pay for farmworkers and defeat Jim Crow laws. Moving our money collectively can be a powerful lever.
Unpredictable rain and extreme heat will impact all of us.
As the climate crisis impacts more and more people, it is becoming increasingly difficult — and increasingly perilous — to ignore. A shift in the way we think about community is necessary. We can no longer afford to consider our sheltered enclaves as separate from the plight of others.
Sen. Van Wanggaard, R-Racine, says there should be consequences for Milwaukee Public Schools after the district failed to turn in its district aid certification two weeks ago amid ongoing financial issues.
Former Trump attorney Jim Troupis is seeking to quash a subpoena Dem AG Josh Kaul filed for “everything under the sun” related to the effort to provide a false slate of 2020 presidential electors, saying what he did was legal and public before he went through with it.
The state DOJ argued in a new filing with the 2nd District Court of Appeals that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. waited too long to file his suit seeking to be removed from Wisconsin ballots with printing already underway. What’s more, the filing argues Kennedy’s suggestion to affix stickers to ballots to block out his name isn’t allowed under state law and would be a “logistical nightmare.”
If the left can frighten people with lies about Project 2025, the right should be able to frighten people with the truth about Rules for Radicals. Both books clearly represent good versus evil. Project 2025 is not the evil one.
The Wisconsin Elections Commission voted 5-1 to approve seeking an additional $3.2 million in state aid for its 2025-27 biennium budget.
An expert on internet crimes against children warned lawmakers and others about the dark side of artificial intelligence, noting child predators are using the technology for “nefarious” purposes. The 2024 Legislative Council Study Committee on the Regulation of Artificial Intelligence
8th Congressional candidates Tony Wied, R-De Pere, and Kristin Lyerly, D-Green Bay, have agreed to debate Sept. 27.
It seems absurd to take the time to refute the preposterous claims about immigrants made by Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans in Wisconsin, including U.S. Rep. Derrick Van Orden and Sen. Ron Johnson. But the campaign of slander targeting vulnerable workers who milk our cows, pick our crops, build our roads and prop up our economy is genuinely dangerous.
Wisconsin looks good, but she may need 3% lead in national vote to win electoral college.
The highest official in the nation should be chosen by the majority of the people. The Electoral College process has the capacity to thwart that outcome and has, indeed, several times. It’s happening more frequently now.
The Rights for the TSA Workforce Act would make TSOs equal with other federal workers by guaranteeing crucial rights in law.
Mediocre Wisconsin looks good in comparison to tax hells to the west and south.
Inflation is not caused by greed, gouging, collusion or protectionism. It is not caused by rabid capitalists attempting to squeeze every last penny out of the consumer, or by ‘animal spirits’ run amuck. Inflation isn’t even an increase in prices! No, inflation is an increase in the quantity of money.
The decision Wisconsin makes today will reverberate through future generations. By expanding coverage for obesity medication, the Group Insurance Board can lay the foundation for a healthier, more vibrant state.
Prominent filmmakers cite past support and criticize reduced funding for local artists.
