President Ronald Reagan made history 45 years ago when he signed the largest tax cuts ever at his beloved California Rancho del Cielo.

Our national parks preserve the most stunning natural and historic places for everyone, rich or poor, forever. We can’t allow an uncaring, childlike wannabe dictator ruin what generations of Americans have built.

Drivers of racecars will speed around the Smithsonian buildings. No pedestrians are allowed to wander these grand places of history, culture and art that belong to the American people for free. Tickets went on sale.

The former Verso plant is symbolic of how the words “data center” have become politically radioactive in Wisconsin – even when that industrial-zoned site is undergoing a brownfield cleanup that would scare away most developers.

The number of Black nominees is unprecedented. Maryland, Wisconsin, Georgia, Florida, Nevada, South Carolina, Minnesota, and Michigan will be watched in the 76 days to the elections.

I’m actually somewhat encouraged. Hong’s defeat — late though it came — suggests lots of Wisconsin Democrats stood up for more mainstream views. Likewise, the pulse in rural America is turning against the worst impulses of the Right because it’s causing real pain.

Crowley’s victory was very narrow and Democrats have much to learn from Hong’s campaign.

Strong schools give our children opportunities. Strong communities give families stability. An affordable Wisconsin gives them the freedom to build their future.

Ten years after MKE was warned that adults were failing Black youth, another outbreak of violence raises the question: Did we ever really listen? Accountability doesn’t begin and end with the child.

He’s run 5 Senate committee hearings in the last year spreading crackpot theories and disinformation.
