In the area where I grew up the conversation about high-capacity irrigation wells has taken on a louder and more robust tone over the past decade. It is pitting farmers against those who wish for more considerate and wise use of natural resources.
The politicians who are at the forefront of complaining about rampant crime are the same ones who yield to the gun lobby, refusing to even acknowledge that there’s a link between all that crime and all those easily available weapons.
Gov. Evers won by 90,000 votes but still the Republicans gained more seats in the Legislature, coming within a whisker of a veto-proof majority.
I’ve found labels to be the enemy of conversation, and an even greater threat to understanding.
We have allowed our governments at all levels to be too big, too intrusive, too powerful, too coercive, and too corrosive.
Time to start a new, moderate sub-party within the Democratic Party.
Gov. Tony Evers is one of the most underestimated politicians in the state.
Concession speeches should be our norm.
Wisconsin Environmental Executive Director John Imes writes about #COP27 in Egypt, where he served as an NGO observer and delegate with the American Sustainable Business Network.
Legislative offices say they continue to receive complaints from constituents about the long delays in processing professional credential applications and renewals at the Department of Safety and Professional Services.

Barnes sets record, the most telling campaign quote and Northwest Wisconsin turns red.
Lots of motivation this time around for compromise.
The 3rd wasn’t the only district where the D.C. Democrats abandoned their candidate.
Whether their candidates won their races or not, many in the electorate came up big winners.
Can you hear the deafening silence about election fraud following the 2022 midterm elections?
It turns out, the only thing real about the frightening predictions of violence at the polls was the fear it engendered in the American public.
After a spring and summer of high hopes, Republicans must settle for what amounts to a tie. Instead of a celebratory backflip, Republicans are limping to the sideline medical tent.
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.
