There is a growing housing crisis affecting our families, and the runaway inflation we are living through is deepening that crisis. Without help, too many parents, children, and seniors will become homeless.
What has gone largely unnoticed as the House hearings on the Jan. 6 insurrection continue is the revelation of how Donald Trump and his entourage have fleeced their own loyal supporters out of roughly $250 million.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, look at the upcoming partisan primaries for U.S. Senate and Wisconsin governor. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
“This will not pass: Trump, Biden and the Battle for America’s Future” takes the reader from the last months of Donald Trump’s presidency through Joe Biden’s first year.
As motorists continue to confront record-high gas prices, front-runners — Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes, Milwaukee Bucks executive Alex Lasry, and Wisconsin State Treasurer Sarah Godlewski — support suspending the federal gas tax.
Barnes had the temerity to tell an audience in Portage last August, “Imagine being so ashamed of how we got to this place in America that you outlaw teaching it.”

The U.S. Supreme Court is stripping back the power of government and returning it to the people.
In a crowded Democratic field, Nelson stood out to me because of his consistency in pushing for progressive policies.
The roles of some of our organizations have changed, but you can still be guided to safe and legal abortion clinics in neighboring states.
The evolving tech transition at Wisconsin’s DWD has attracted notice from similar agencies in other states.
These so-called lower-tier candidates will be mostly ignored in election coverage stories and most, if not all, will be banned from debates. That’s a shame, as most voters will not hear from these candidates and their views on important issues.
On the same day that Wisconsin certified its 10 electoral votes for Joe Biden, 10 Republicans met secretly in another part of the state Capitol and cast the state’s votes for Trump, forwarding them to the National Archives and others.
Americans’ obsession with mass murderers has been inspiring mass murderers since Columbine.
