The Wisconsin Supreme Court is considering banning ICE detainers. Liberal justices want to declare these unlawful, but unfortunately for them, the Constitution and 230 years of unbroken federal supremacy stand in their way.
Hawaii is the leader. How high — or low — does Wisconsin rank?
In the days ahead, many tributes will honor Meyer’s legacy. His voice and actions shaped Wisconsin’s environmental policies, advancing forward-thinking measures that continue to benefit residents today.
I’m tired of tolerating radical right-wingers or left-wingers who belligerently want to tell me and everybody else what to think … We are broken because the few have appointed themselves to speak for the many and the rest of us have let them get away with it.
As we seek alternative spaces for Carmen Northwest, we ask that you reach out to the Milwaukee Public School board and the mayor’s office, asking them to lease or sell us the building.
So much for the party of ‘affordability’
olice records from the encampment crackdown in May 2024 show enforcement inconsistency and the “obstructing or resisting” trap.
Instead of a long line of professional politicians in the governor’s mansion on Lake Mendota, how about an outstanding entrepreneur who has created thousands of new jobs and a bundle of wealth for venture investors?
Wisconsin can follow suit and cut regulations.
Donald Trump announced a proposed $12 billion farm aid package on December 8, marketing it as a lifeline for agricultural producers battered by trade disruptions, inflation, and volatile global markets.
While Wisconsin’s health care costs are not among the worst in the country, our inadequate policy choices are undermining potential for cost relief.
While we’re all paying more because of Trumpflation, Trump is calling concern about affordability a “con job” and a “false narrative.” Guess his billionaire buddies don’t have to worry about the price of a burger.
A bipartisan coalition of three dozen state attorneys general has come together to oppose efforts to ban state regulation of artificial intelligence.
We’re seeing this revolt happening all over the political landscape and all over the developed world. This Humphrey’s case is just another example. On the actual merits of the case, I’ll lament the new power given to the president — especially this president. But on a higher level, the elites had it coming.
Watching the decline of civilization in real time produces such overwhelming feelings of helplessness for some that they fear for their mental well-being. They’re curling up in a ball, not because they’re apathetic, because they’re feeling besieged and powerless.
Wisconsin’s nightmare could become America’s reality: elections for sale to the highest bidder, and citizens’ voices drowned out by billionaires’ checkbooks.
The state Supreme Court has created two panels to review the Republican-drawn maps.
Wisconsin’s unemployment insurance system still taxes paychecks like it’s 1932.
When Democrats talk about the need to keep making “health care affordable,” but only offer up more subsidies and government intervention, they’re not serious about lowering costs.
Blue bureaucrats and their political partners aren’t interested in open scientific inquiry; they are interested in protecting those special interests who insist vaccines can’t and don’t play a role in autism.
