For the past half-century, right-wing politicians have pointed to legalized abortion as the source of most evil and have promised to abolish it once they achieved power. Now, a draft opinion by Justice Alito promises to do just that and more and our GOP friends are assuring us it is no big deal.
One of few women in Congress to talk frankly about the days before Roe, an era that may soon return.
Kids are reaping the consequences of school shutdowns.
White nationalism and the bogus replacement theory make it open season on Blacks and on Jews.

The Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. knows how to have a good time — on the taxpayer’s dime.
