While the mainstream media and especially cable TV news have been preoccupied with Donald Trump’s asinine tweets, his administration is laying waste to policies that for decades have helped and served the average American.
We thought 2017 had more whoppers than the front counter at a movie theater. But from the lies that influenced the Wisconsin election to lies that changed the national narrative about a whole host of issues, 2018 proved even worse. It wasn’t easy, but we narrowed the list down to the top ten whopping lies.
Last week, when the whole world was demanding urgent action to end the Saudi-led bombardment and starvation of Yemen, the Janesville Republican used all of his considerable authority to block an urgent response to the humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
Unless the discussion about all of our campuses becomes a discussion about the economy, public higher education will end up digging our own grave as we become the best closers around.
The ability for students to have an education tailored to their needs can sometimes mean that schools may select students whose needs align with the school.

By signing lame-duck legislation to disempower his successor, the Wisconsinite confirms his scorching contempt for the will of the people.
A far more objective review of the legislation reveals that several measures are helpful reforms that promote much-needed improvements in our state’s governance.
Rather than be gracious in defeat, Republicans responded with sweeping proposals to consolidate more power, eliminate checks and balances, and restrict access to voting in future elections.
Trump and defeated Wisconsin GOP Governor Scott Walker have demonstrated again that they reject governing and embrace rabble-rousing.
In national politics, there is a pattern of the incoming Republican administration seeking to unravel successes of the departing Democrats.
In terms of lasting impact, Walker clearly will rank among the state’s most notable governors. His failed run for president will, I believe, be overshadowed by Act 10 and Foxconn. At the same time, his legacy also includes mismanagement of such key functions as transportation finance and corrections.
