Milwaukee gets to oust its election commissioner but GOP can’t get rid of state elections chief.
President Joe Biden has made historic strides to change that and to promote protection of the natural heritage of our public lands as equally important as resource extraction.
The requirements placed on the construction of the artificial intelligence data center not only limit competition but increase costs 12% to 20% and will delay other clean energy and transportation projects.
ut whether we idolize Jesse James for robbing those conniving railroad moguls, Al Capone’s defiance of those holier-than-thou feds enforcing the prohibition laws, mythicizing Bonnie and Clyde or Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, to put Trump on a pedestal for his willingness to tear down democratic institutions is the proverbial bridge too far. As a nation, we would be eternally sorry.
As we welcome spring and prepare to celebrate the graduates in our lives, let’s also use National Hospital Week as a reminder of the centrality of hospitals to our communities and the importance of a thriving healthcare workforce. This is a moment to reflect not only on the challenges, but the immense opportunities that lie ahead for healthcare and hospital careers in Wisconsin.

The United States went all in on a lock down during COVID while Sweden let nature take its course. Which was the better strategy? Some evidence points to Sweden.
Biden has attempted to split the baby with his rhetoric vacillating between powerful support for Israel and appeasement to Hamas. His actions, however, lean heavily in favor of Hamas. Meanwhile, Senator Baldwin is in lock-step with Biden and Hamas providing rhetorical and legislative support whenever they need it
The days of wine and roses must be over when it comes to how the House GOP operates vis-à-vis the Freedom Caucus’ behavior.
The White House made clear that Microsoft’s $3.3 billion investment doesn’t stand alone: Wisconsin has been designated by the Biden administration as a Tech Hub and is also receiving billions of dollars for infrastructure.
Donald Trump’s campaign has vowed to overturn at least five of President Joe Biden’s major climate initiatives that have been hailed as the most bold in the nation’s history.
His forthcoming book, “The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools” is a chronicle of the explosion of school choice over the past few years — one that DeAngelis sees as having been set off by teachers unions’ antics arousing parents.
