The tax bill that just passed Congress and will be signed by Trump without a single Democratic vote has turned both sides into P.T. Barnums. How can the GOP sell it and how can the Democrats keep it alive as a negative campaign issue in 2018?

Schimel also talks about state Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Evers and whether the Department of Justice should represent the superintendent in a lawsuit by the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty regarding the REINS Act.
It is troubling to see the John Doe investigations and fallout back in the news as it has escalated to the point where legislative leaders are calling for Elections Commission Administrator Mike Haas and other officials to resign, despite no accusations of wrongdoing or any recommendation by the DOJ for their resignation.
