Former President Trump posted on Truth Social that he won’t be doing “the debates.”

The Aug. 23 GOP presidential debate is a big event, but it is not the first such debate in Wisconsin. Illinois also has a history of hosting such events.

A Senate committee has set an Aug. 29 confirmation hearing for Meagan Wolfe amid a dispute over whether the state’s top elections official has been reappointed to the job.

For about $365 million, representing a small portion of Wisconsin’s multibillion-dollar budget surplus, the state could replace expiring federal pandemic dollars to help child-care programs stay in business.
