Their solution is to raise interest rates, but raising rates will not dramatically improve the supply of workers, nor will it generate chips and other parts so badly needed. They live in cocoons. They are isolated.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, examine the impact of President Biden and former President Trump on the midterm elections. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
I’m beginning to wonder if the Burlington Liars Club can hold a candle to the raft of untruths that are being tossed around like tennis balls this election season.
Will the media ever fact-check him?
Aided by the recently court-approved Republican re-gerrymander of Wisconsin’s congressional districts, and the stepping down of Kind, Van Orden is favored to win that House seat in November.
