My concerns about this rising tide of antisemitism is not related to the remarks by Kanye West and Kyrie Irving alone. They are simply the latest to outwardly attack Jews.
Social media has credibility problems … and financial troubles. The linkage between the two is becoming clearer by the day and helps to explain why industry leaders are scrambling to find business models that work.
The First Amendment, the U.S. Supreme Court has frequently pointed out, protects political speech, even the lies.
Trump’s nastiness doomed Tim Michels who rode Tim Ramthun’s dirty trick.
The suburban shift accelerates, the red WOW wall crumbles, Dane County is a turnout powerhouse, Mandela Barnes got *so close*, a missed opportunity in western Wisconsin and much more.
Like every other Wisconsinite, I’m happy to be done with all of the campaign texts and emails—but campaigns are gearing up for spring elections. I can only hope they learn and do better the next time.
To be blunt: Republicans were lied to. They were seduced by the idea of a self-funding candidate who didn’t deliver. He dragged down other statewide candidates as a result.
Twenty months after Congress passed a bill that rained $2.53 billion down on Wisconsin, the governor’s office in sole charge of administering the funding, as well as legislative audit and budget officials, have almost no idea of how all that money is being spent.
A baby Roth would be available for use at full retirement age, currently 67. The time difference is crucial: More time allows compound interest to create greater wealth in a baby Roth.
Visiting the Wall, which I have done many times, is a sobering experience. Equally significant is the memorial to the nurses who saved so many lives of those wounded in combat.
It is inappropriate to single out one veteran on Veteran’s Day, but there is a story of one local veteran whose intriguing story bears retelling. It is the story of Captain Edwin James Fickler, a U.S. Marine jet pilot who went missing in the ill-advised war in Vietnam more than half-century ago.
Today, we’re honoring Veterans Day and all the brave folks who served our state and country, including the more than 300,000 veterans who call Wisconsin home.
On this day scores of restaurants and other businesses honor vets with everything from free meals to discounts on merchandise to say thanks. So it was more than a bit ironic that a cabal of Wisconsin election deniers headed by state Rep. Janel Brandtjen, a Republican from Menomonee Falls, and none other than the disgraced former state Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman, attempted to delay the counting of absentee ballots by Wisconsin citizens serving in the military.
As Gov. Tony Evers continues to celebrate his reelection victory on Tuesday, one of his biggest failures looms large this Veterans Day.
Those involved in the green energy movement were relieved by Gov. Tony Evers’ win over his challenger, Republican Tim Michels.
Governor pulled off something no Wisconsin Democrat has accomplished in 60 years.
Journalist Dom Noth analyzes results of Tuesday’s election.
The problematic youth vote, and rewarding sound leadership: Candidates who were viewed as problem-solvers won their elections. Case in point: Every incumbent Republican governor in the nation who ran won their election. And they won big.
Voters not willing to swallow Donald Trump or his trashy candidates.
Given the enormity of the challenges confronting us, we cannot afford to curl up in a ball. We need to talk politics; we need to do politics. We need to be citizens.
