U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson accused President Joe Biden of lying after Biden in a post State of the Union speech in DeForest said Johnson wants to put Medicare and Social Security funding up for regular votes. The Oshkosh senator in an email to WisPolitics.com said Biden “is lying about me.” “He lied last night, and he lied again today,” the Oshkosh senator wrote. “I never suggested putting Medicare & Social Security on the chopping block.”

During a post-State of the Union stop in DeForest on Feb. 8, President Joe Biden touted his economic plan, saying if the previous Congress could work together to pass legislation with bipartisan support, there’s no reason the current one can’t make that happen.

By defending democracy itself, and the values that undergird it, like equal protection under the law, Biden did the country a real service in his State of the Union address.

It was a very good night for President Joe Biden.

If we take just a minute to step back and see the grandeur of the SOTU, the process of how our government operates, and the attempts at decorum (minus the ones who acted boorishly with outbursts), all while robust policy disputes stew below the surface, we then can understand the power of this tradition.

For some unhealthy reason, the mini coalitions in the Republican party have decided that a circular firing squad and name-calling are more important and self-righteous than the ultimate goal of winning elections and controlling the political discourse.

Gov. Tony Evers proposes improved program to provide that support.

A school that’s making Milwaukee’s future men navigates harsh fiscal environment.

Those who want to “escape” to Florida, its bad schools, regressive government and perennial climate disasters to avoid paying an income tax that benefits all, I say good riddance.
