But while the focus of that anti-war movement has been on the protests of students, peace activists and other American civilians, a major contributor in bringing that war to an end has been largely swept under the rug: the role that American GIs themselves played in convincing the country’s leaders that the carnage must end.
Sunshine laws uncovered them.
Let’s start with how the state shorts the city on shared revenue funds.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, look at the upcoming Wisconsin primary and the likely rematch of former President Donald Trump with President Joe Biden. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership….
Biden all but handed the GOP the white flag they will need after the balloting is counted this fall. But here is the part that shows Biden at his political best. He did it with humor and in a conversational folksy style.
The Republican Party must examine the data and encourage candidates to join and use TikTok. If they want to win, they must be where young voters will see them.
Wisconsin’s once-low electric rates now the highest in Midwest. That’s a big problem for all of us.
A proposed Wisconsin bill has ignited a fierce debate about how to compassionately alleviate homelessness. The ongoing crisis has pushed state and local lawmakers to consider novel solutions, and this proposal has become a flashpoint.

What is often needed is discernment, context and research to see what’s happening to our world. Be informed.
Wisconsinites are starving for tax relief. In response, Gov. Tony Evers served up a three-course veto meal, leaving taxpayers with a bitter aftertaste. Each veto represents a broken campaign promise of tax relief for the middle class.
All the mothers who have been to your office about this issue are desperate. We are now fighting for the lives of other children in honor of our children’s memories because it’s the only way we might find the tiniest bit of peace. Pass KOSA now.
Whatever voters do in April, come November we’ll almost certainly be facing a Trump v. Biden rematch. That’s a coin toss in our state.
