Wisconsin has always balanced environmental stewardship with economic activity. We must continue that tradition by rejecting fringe arguments. The future of the timber industry—and all development in Northern Wisconsin—depends on it.
The Republican Party is a prize worth having. Question is how much of the party will be left standing in the crossfire this weekend at state convention between these warring factions.
Like moles, these soldiers of the progressive order dig far down into deep state hideaways, where they can work their mischief for years and years, presidential administration in and presidential administration out.
Donald Trump is reportedly frustrated and surprised that his self-acclaimed deal-making prowess hasn’t worked to bring peace in Gaza and Ukraine. He shouldn’t be surprised. He violated nearly every principle of negotiations that is used in business all day, every day.
What an ugly incident at high school sports event tells about current state of the nation.
One of the several revelations about George Floyd in the book about his troubled life was that his great-great-grandfather in North Carolina had been able to amass 500 acres of farmland in the roughly 30 years after being freed as a slave following the Civil War.
For a party that, until recently, struggled to connect with younger voters, it’s a risky move to send the message: ‘We trust you with guns— but not with Google’
This week, during National Hospital Week, we celebrate these invaluable institutions and the dedicated professionals who work tirelessly to care for our neighbors, friends, and families.
The real reason Democrats struggle to win a proportional number of congressional seats in Wisconsin isn’t the map—it’s the candidates. In statewide races, liberal candidates like Janet Protasiewicz, Doug LaFollette, and even Tammy Baldwin have won in 4 of the 8 current congressional districts.
Education once again took top billing across state budget hearings, but progress is grinding to a halt, just as federal uncertainty looms.
As the Public Service Commission considers We Energies’ proposal to invest $2.2 billion in new methane gas plants in Oak Creek and Paris, business and civic leaders must ask: Are we investing in the future—or repeating the past?
Builders, economists cite rules, especially those on lot size, for affordability crisis, but point to solutions.
Academic science needs to embrace union organizing, now more than ever.
16 members of Finance, mostly Republicans, decide what’s in the state budget.
Evers likes to defend his actions by trumpeting that “the will of the people is the law of the land,” but I’m hard-pressed to imagine a less democratic policy in modern history than tethering generations of Wisconsinites to perpetual tax increases that neither they nor their elected officials ever voted for.
Believing they can purge their way to victory, cultists would rather lose with the My Pillow Man than elect a moderate Republican. The reality is that Donald Trump’s hold on Wisconsin voters is communion wafer thin.
With so much support and such a strong record of success, why are Republican legislators hesitating to back stewardship? It appears the reason is petulance.
Years after Covid, the overspending continues—even with a Republican Congress.
Reporters must do their complete job with every news story they write or air. That means adding the reason the actions Trump makes run counter to constitutional safeguards and the laws of the country.
A leaked version of a proposed budget for the federal Department of Health and Human Services would eliminate direct funding for many programs for people with disabilities
