Wisconsin’s a leader in high costs and inflated executive salaries. Is there a solution?

Neither of our organizations should have to resort to litigation to get a parade route near delegates and others gathering for the convention.

The president says he won’t bow out. But his efforts to renew his candidacy are risk-averse, uninspired, and dangerously misguided.

Millions are grateful to President Joe Biden for beating Donald Trump once and for his policy record, but his post-debate actions suggest he should withdraw from the presidential race.

President Biden will be the Democratic nominee for president of the United States. The race will be much closer than many people think. Former President Donald Trump can be victorious, but it will take message discipline to win over swing voters in battleground states like mine, Wisconsin.

Since the debate he has shown the unusual discipline to not step on Joe Biden’s self-destruction story. He has followed the old political truism that, when your opponent is digging himself a hole, don’t take away his shovel.

A new poll shows Black voters believe President Joe Biden performed better than Donald Trump during Thursday’s debate, suggesting Trump’s remarks about “Black jobs” may have caused him damage with Black voters, according to Newsweek.

Perhaps 11-year-olds would have gotten burned in Trump’s shell game. But the 12 adult jurors in New York who were not bamboozled have set an example, going forward, for the rest of the country on how to stand up for truth and the American justice system.

A representative for one of the state’s top anti-abortion groups warned Republicans could lose votes after a committee approved a new party platform that includes no call for a national ban for the first time in 40 years. Meanwhile, other groups that oppose abortion had a more measured response to the policy released by the Republican National Committee, which notes states can pass their own laws restricting abortion.

Businessman Tony Wied is launching the first TV ad of his bid for the 8th CD, touting himself as the “Trump-endorsed conservative” in the race.

The Republican National Committee has announced daily program themes evoking Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan for next week’s GOP convention in Milwaukee.

The Medical College of Wisconsin will lead a health screening initiative as part of the Wisconsin BioHealth Tech Hub effort thanks to newly announced federal funding. The U.S. Economic Development Administration last week awarded $49 million to the state-based effort,

LBJ withdrew with an impressive domestic record. Then Nixon took America down a dark road.

Democratic politicians cling to the line that Joe Biden is fit for the job of president.

On Friday, she stuck to a pre-planned “Fired Up for Tammy” campaign tour of northern Wisconsin.

They don’t want to be scooped by them. They don’t want to follow them. But by refusing to recognize a story for a story, they are proving the bias they reject.

The other side of his debate with Joe Biden.

We are launching the bipartisan Democracy Defense Project to help restore trust in our election system. We come from different political parties and have different political ideologies, but we share one common goal; promoting fair elections in Wisconsin.

While we obsess over the horse race and the latest polls, rubbernecking at the tragic disintegration of an accomplished, public-spirited president, the plot to overthrow American democracy and replace it with a violent, repressive, despotic regime is well underway.

On this 4th of July, I will celebrate the American idea. The America of the future; the America we have yet to become. It won’t be a day off, but a day “on”.
