At least from Republicans. Who are the experts and should they be trusted?

These folks who are trying really hard to tell people of color that oppressors and oppression are a figment of our collective imaginations are attempting to gaslight us, but we have seen these games for far too long to be tricked.

Where have the likes of Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley and their soulmates like Tom Cotton of Arkansas and Ted Cruz of Texas been when they could do something — anything — about the biggest killer of young people today: the unchecked proliferation of firearms?

We do have a responsibility as citizens to at least strive to know the lead paragraphs of the topics that impact our lives and those of the world community. We have the means and the fingertips. Just do it.

After a controversial vote against impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Gallagher made the surprise announcement that he will not be seeking reelection. The moment says a lot about where the Republican base is right now.

The upshot of Gallagher’s departure is that Wisconsin is losing a voice of sanity within the increasingly Trump-captured Republican Party.

When it came time to vote to impeach Trump, Gallagher refused to join the 10 House Republicans — including House Republican Conference chair Liz Cheney — who voted for basic accountability.

It’s really quite simple: If Joe Biden and the Democrats really wanted to secure our nation’s border, then they’d give the American citizens a clean bill that actually secures the border and protects American citizens.

We need a president who through the ages it has become second nature to treat every person with dignity and respect. Who uses his power to uplift those around us; not demean and disparage those who of are no benefit to him.

Republicans in Wisconsin and nationwide have been trying to pass laws that interfere and obstruct people’s ability to make their own reproductive health care decisions — and in 2024, they’re still trying.

The logic behind professional management of local governments is sound. Municipalities are complex organizations, and effectively managing their staffing and finances requires a unique skillset, as well as insulation from partisan politics. Yet the idea of professional management of municipalities is often misunderstood.

Perhaps retiring Gallagher could provide one last official service to his country: lead House Republicans to support military aid for Ukraine and Israel.

While his congressional brethren were seeking impeachments of President Biden or the head of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas or grasping to hold onto every conspiracy theory, Gallager effectively used his time in Congress to dig into some weighty issues of our time.

The quiet part was said out loud. In an official document, written by a government watchdog.

Biden is a good man who has done a good job, but he’s just too old and frail for the rigors of being president going forward.

This Black History Month, I would like to celebrate five prominent Black women who paved the way in the field of politics.

Reliable energy infrastructure is important for Wisconsin businesses, and that’s why the Wisconsin Economic Development Association and economic development organizations and local chambers of commerce across the state support the Right of First Refusal legislation.
