Hovde’s candidacy faces significant hurdles.

As chaos seems to be the focus of so many in American and Wisconsin politics right now, the Wisconsin Young Republicans stand ready to fight for freedom and take back control in 2024.

The party is awash in cash so it has decided to spend $140 million on a campaign to better connect with rural America. That’s a good idea. But their strategy is questionable.

The husband-and-wife duo of Peter Baker and Susan Glasser will discuss their definitive book on the Trump presidency with David Maraniss at a special Cap Times Idea Fest session on Sept. 19.

We either have state statutes that have meaning and will be enforced across Wisconsin, or we have laws on the books that can be skirted and only applicable to certain people.

The need for worker education and protections

Here in Wisconsin, it is practically impossible to make a living educating young children while charging rates parents can afford to pay.

Sadly, in too many cases, society overlooks mental health care, leaving many people vulnerable to afflictions such as addiction, depression, anxiety and many other diseases. This stigmatization has leached into our politics.

Thirty years of problems beg fundamental change or permanent closure.

Microsoft, probably the most successful American corporation both by reputation and revenues, announced plans to invest $3.3 billion to build an AI data center by the end of 2026 on the campus that had been created for Foxconn.

The KC-46A Pegasus is a state-of-the-art air refueling tanker that could be housed in Milwaukee.

The way this city and region approaches transportation is unquestionably going in a different direction. Whether the full scope of change will be realized is another question. A squishy middle-ground is always more likely than a bold decision.

After 23 years on the Madison police force, Mike Hanson is retiring as captain of the downtown district.

Petryk is the 21st member of the Assembly to decide to retire or seek another office. That includes eight Republicans.

“I would love to debate Sen. Baldwin. Could you please try to arrange one?” Hovde said on WISN’s “UpFront,” which is produced in partnership with WisPolitics. “I’ll do it right here. I’ll do it anyplace, anywhere. I have many groups that have tried to reach out to organize a debate with Sen. Baldwin, and she doesn’t respond. So I would love to debate Sen. Baldwin because I think that’s what the people of the state should hear, what our positions are.”

U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Oshkosh, pleaded with GOP activists to put aside their differences on issues such as abortion and unify to deliver Wisconsin for Trump this fall at the state GOP convention in Appleton over the weekend.

Party activists at the state GOP convention today elected Waukesha County GOP Chair Terry Dittrich and Pam Travis, one of the Republicans who submitted a false slate of electors for Trump in 2020, to fill two of Wisconsin’s three slots on the Republican National Committee.

Madison businessman Eric Hovde today accused Dem U.S. Sen Tammy Baldwin of engaging in the politics of personal destruction since he got into the race to distract from what he said was a record of “utter failure.”

U.S. Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla. and a frequent surrogate for Donald Trump, told party activists they have a simple job in 2024—”to defeat the crazy, radical, Marxist left that has destroyed the Democrat Party.”

Wisconsin GOP activists today approved resolutions calling for the impeachment of the state’s top elections official, declaring abortion “murder of an unborn child” and calling for the elimination of the state’s income tax.
