I’m not the only one scrambling to figure out how Saturday changed the tone for this week. The Daily Show picked up and shipped back to New York City, canceling all of their live tapings in Milwaukee and canceled their Monday night show entirely. I’ve spoken to other journalists and media folks who said they have scrapped some of their stories and plans as well.
So, now with Biden’s age issues on the back burner, all eyes are on Trump and the Republicans and how they react to the events in Pennsylvania. Is this the thing that brings us back to our senses or will it be just another event used to excite the base?
Wisconsin Democrats have long tried to dehumanize and vilify Donald Trump. Now that their rhetoric has led to actual consequences, they’re attempting to distance themselves from it. All Wisconsinites should make them own it.
While comments and condemnations were pouring in from foreign leaders, political leaders, former presidents Obama and Bush, etc., there was nothing coming from the White House. Silence. It was almost two full hours from the time of the attempted assassination until Biden said anything. And then he said it in a post on X.
Milwaukee party official Hilario Deleon winning national, international attention.
Protesters held a peaceful march through downtown streets as the Republican National Convention kicked off in Milwaukee.
It is time we insulate the court from political winds, donors and party ideology.
The man Trump has picked as his vice presidential running mate was once the ultimate Never Trumper.
The benefits of digesting manure and food-processing waste include bigger harvests with less synthetic fertilizer, less odor, safer groundwater, fewer new landfills and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
Seeing these improvements take shape has given me a sense of pride, but also a time to reflect on the people around the world who don’t have the same access to these resources as I do.
In our nation, there have always been those on the left and right who will say the most absurd or deranged statements. One can find those examples with ease from the daily newspaper or online. But those are far different from the sustained and repetitive lies about ‘stolen elections’ or how Brown people are “vermin” who are “poisoning the blood of our country,” which falls on the ears of the easily led and the ignorant part of the nation who then feel a license to say and do things are that dangerous to the whole of society.
The crazy idiotic culture of guns in our nation plays out every day with mass shootings. Today was different only that a soon-to-be presidential nominee was a target. But let us not forget that over the July 4th weekend in Chicago over 17 people were killed in gun violence. Today is no different as we live in a gun-soaked society.
The delegates gathering in Milwaukee this week are awfully different than the band of abolitionists who founded the Republican Party in this Wisconsin town 170 years ago.
It’s no time to negotiate with protesters who are vowing to breach the security perimeter in order to get closer to Trump and RNC delegates in Milwaukee.
Your presidential and congressional votes in November will determine if America remains the greatest nation in the world or joins Russia, China, Iran and North Korea where citizens live in the darkness of dictatorships.
