Japan was Wisconsin’s seventh-largest trading partner in 2021 at nearly $700 million, more than one-third of China’s $1.8 billion total for the same year. That was true even though Japan’s population is less than 10% of China’s 1.4 billion people.
Brazil’s “Tropical Trump” says “only God will remove me” if he loses Sunday.
Election results going back three decades show an almost perfectly divided state.
It’s not just license applications and renewals that Gov. Tony Evers’ incompetent Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) is failing to process in a timely manner.

Gov. Tony Evers’ dysfunctional Department of Safety and Professional Services no longer wants to be bothered with lawmaker emails on behalf of frustrated constituents suffering through long professional license application delays. Instead, the bungling agency has developed a “new tool” requiring lawmakers to become case workers for DSPS.
Under the guise of patriotism, Trump supporters have been encouraged to commit fraud (fake electors), tell lies (there was election fraud), spew hate (the Proud Boys), sew distrust (fake news claims, when the truth is inconvenient) and lack decency (threats and acts of violence) in expressing political differences.
