Recent high court decision latest of several rulings reducing governor’s power.

While President Joe Biden and Gov. Tony Evers may try to sell voters on a delusional message about the “booming” economy and that a recession “isn’t inevitable,” Wisconsin businesses don’t share that optimism, according to a new survey.

We’ve got to come together to defend our freedom

The congressional hearings on the January 6, 2021, violent desecration of the U.S. Capitol are a wake-up call for Americans.

As someone pointed out in a panel discussion about elections, if Americans don’t trust elections, there is no democracy. And that’s precisely what bothers me on our nation’s 246th birthday.

It is worth celebrating that we are still one nation, bonded together around the belief in freedom and democracy, even when divisions tear at our patch-quilt, straining those core ideals.

Urban Triage, known for endorsing violence in the pursuit of “social justice”, has been busy roiling the waters in the wake of the Supreme Court’s ruling.

Milwaukee’s school choice program shows that letting parents choose a moral ecology is how differing beliefs can coexist.

By banning the stories of the enslaved, religiously persecuted, interred, or otherwise mistreated, you fail to teach the true history of this country and all her ugly truths.

So say conservatives like the policy director for ‘free market’ Badger Institute.

The reality is we need Line 5 right now and probably a couple decades into the future. It serves a purpose and remains the safest way to transport energy products.

The Republican Party is trying to blame President Biden for spiking gas prices, even though it’s the Republicans who have blocked action.

We have been receiving more warnings about the possibility of brownouts and rolling blackouts in recent weeks.

The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, consider how the overturn of Roe v. Wade will affect Wisconsin politics. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.

We celebrate the Fourth of July and not April 15, because — in America — we commemorate our independence from the government, not our dependence on it.

If the COVID-19 pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that we need each other to be good citizens. Maybe this year we should celebrate Interdependence Day.

Restricting access to abortion does not reduce total abortions. It simply ensures that a much higher proportion of abortions are unsafe.

It’s early, but the issue is crazing Democrats.

The courts have the authority to make decisions but if no one accepts their legitimacy, the legitimacy of the entire governing system is called into question.

If I were a Democratic strategist I’d stick to “safe, legal and rare” and I’d emphasize the fight against inflation and crime with abortion an add-on issue.
