That so many inexcusable things have happened since Trump was re-elected does not somehow make his heartlessness any less vomitous. Dancing on someone’s grave isn’t cute.
Consumers stand to benefit from Netflix’s acquisition of Warner.
The mass shooting at Brown University today is a barbaric and unacceptable tragedy that once again exposes the nation’s inability to confront its epidemic of gun violence.
I have a simple question: If you can board a tanker, why do you need to sink/AKA “blow up/AKA “kill everybody” on fishing boats?
My program could hire Tom Brokaw or Walter Cronkite (if he was still alive) to teach broadcast journalism, and they would have no vote on which broadcast news classes we offer because they aren’t PhDs with tenure. Make that make sense.
Hats off to state Rep. Lisa Subeck and state Sens. Kelda Roys and Chris Larson for pushing back against the insane campaign to get Americans to shun vaccines.
In a few months, The Capital Times will encourage voters to elect progressives to local political office. We know this from bitter experience.
With its recent decision in Abbott v. League of United Latin American Citizens, the US
Supreme Court has opened the door wide to partisan redistricting. What other

When my dad passed away in 1966, our family lost their primary health insurance overnight. My name is Robert Nigh, and I’m a dairy farmer from Vernon County, and this is a story that has repeated itself through three generations of my family.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, look at court cases seeking the redrawing of Wisconsin’s Congressional district boundaries. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership.

Lawmakers suspect state bungling will trigger penalty for bad-payments rate, but governor won’t show data
U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson is asking the Department of Justice to review the case brought by Wisconsin’s attorney general against retired Dane County circuit judge James Troupis “to determine whether any wrongdoing has occurred.”
As data centers set their sights on harvesting Wisconsin’s human and natural resources, refusal and resistance starts locally.
The struggle between AI’s potentially “wicked” and “good” sides will continue for a while, but good should triumph in time. People should keep an open mind while waiting for this movie to play out.
It’s absurd that the U.S. Department of Education has chosen to exclude nursing from its definition of ‘professional degree’ programs.
Professor and author Scott Galloway says if, as a country, we want better young men — and one certainly hopes we do — then we need better older men. And we need them to step up as mentors.
The evidence of Donald Trump’s slipping hold on his party is growing.
They fear he’s the only Democrat who could lose the governor election.
