The intractable partisan slant of most of our news media is as responsible for MAGA nation as anything. The point is, the mainstream media covered for Democrats, rather than objectively serving their readers.
The auto industry is not safe under Biden, our nation is not safe under Biden, and the world is not safe under Biden.
It telegraphs the sort of desperation we see when politicians are trying to bury a vexing narrative — in this case, the one that says Hovde is more Tahoe than Tomah.
Hovde’s polar plunge got The Capital Times to spend its Sunday morning op ed column to confirm the Republican’s point: he’s a hometown Wisconsin boy who made good.
Before his earthquake announcement, McConnell stepped up. At a White House meeting with President Biden, Democratic congressional leaders and GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson, McConnell warned Speaker Johnson about the folly of a government shutdown and the urgent necessity of the GOP-led House to pass vital military aid for Ukraine.
Repealing Act 10, whether by legislative action or the unhinged actions of an activist Supreme Court, would be absolutely devastating to the state of Wisconsin.
For the 18th straight year, the Wisconsin Freedom of Information Council is recognizing outstanding efforts to protect the state’s tradition of open government through its Openness in Government awards, or Opees.
How in good conscience, former Milwaukee Public Schools superintendent Bill Andrekopoulos wonders, can the school district ask taxpayers for $252 million without considering closing a single school?
Last week, the Mississippi senate introduced a proposal that mandates the State Institutions of Higher Learning to select three of the eight public universities by June 2025, for closure by 2028. While the bill did not specifically name the HBCUs by name, alumni and supporters of these universities are on edge at the thought of their closure.
CNalysis makes projections on state legislative maps all over the country. Their new projection for Wisconsin’s state legislature shows where key races will be on this whole new landscape.
Donald Trump’s history of race-baiting is rubbing off on his Republicans in Congress, becoming nearly as infectious as the Covid virus has been on the nation’s health.
The politicians representing 330 million U.S. citizens need to start doing their jobs, start enforcing anti-trust laws already on the books and stop behaving like only the wealthiest 400 or so among us matter at all.
Would it not be smarter to aid our federal government to speed up the process and assist in expediting work authorization for migrants than to allow for the backlogged process to wait up to a year before getting work permits for these new arrivals?
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, discuss the candidacy rollout for Eric Hovde, a Republican seeking to unseat Dem U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.
The real culprits are the right-wingers on the U.S. Supreme Court who first, in a 5-4 decision written by the late Antonin Scalia in 2008, declared that the Second Amendment gave Americans the right to own guns outside of being in a militia. Two years later, again on a 5-4 decision, this one written by Samuel Alito, the court declared that right also applies to the states.
Program that includes higher-income Native American families is result of virtue-signaling.
Rural Wisconsin is NOT voting for The Squad, John Nichols.
He stole Supreme Court seats, thwarted accountability for Donald Trump, and left a trail of partisan destruction in his wake.
When it came to the reason for governing, the need for the structure of government to operate, or why our large international purposes serve so many around the world, McConnell knew his role and demonstrated it well.
Yes, Joe Biden is old, but so is Donald Trump, a weakness amplified by Nikki Haley’s attacks on her Republican opponent.
