The Wisconsin legislature has introduced a bill to prohibit “foreign adversaries” from owning or acquiring land in Wisconsin. Richard Moore gives the low-down and compares it to similar efforts being made in other states, and at the federal level.
UW Law School on Friday will be holding a one-day conference on reviving fusion voting in Wisconsin.
The process was once common, according to Project Democracy, and two states — New York and Connecticut — allow some version of it.
Fusion voting gave New York City voters a chance to reject Trump’s outrageous attacks on Mamdani, while at the same time putting an increasingly marginalized GOP in its place.
Until now, special education has been one of the few areas where politics didn’t divide us.
The cruelty, the waste, the lack of any coherent plan by this administration is becoming clearer and clearer.
It is a cautionary tale of what can happen to an organization and to a society that goes Woke. Not content with being green, the Sierra Club embraced “social justice” and proceeded to devour itself in backbiting, blame-gaming, and inquisitions.
The ship went down in Lake Superior 50 years ago.
We will not rubber-stamp another vague, headline-driven initiative that risks public safety and wastes taxpayer money.
Yet another Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling slaps down legislative overreach.
Students want ROI and jobs.
It is not hyperbole to claim that without what is now known as the University of Wisconsin-Platteville Baraboo Sauk County, or Boo U, I never would have graduated from college and had a career in newspapers and public relations.
We believe every college can learn something important from top community colleges: how to stay laser-focused on post-graduation success.
On Election Day Democratic candidates won big everywhere.
The end of Obamacare’s temporary subsidies accounts for only 3-4% of projected premium increases.
President Trump’s true colors were on display when he appealed to the Supreme Court to deny SNAP food benefits to Americans at serious risk of going hungry.
Democrats are still holding out for renewing the supposedly one-time, emergency subsidies to Obamacare, occasioned by the Covid pandemic.
Trump has been making the U.S. irrelevant in the climate change discussion worldwide since his first term. He also has more or less given other countries the advantages on development of green energy.
Historically, even under intense security threats, senior White House officials have not sought refuge on military bases. By placing senior White House officials in military housing, the Trump administration is blurring the line between military and civilian roles.
Mamdani’s quoting of Eugene Debs and referencing of the sewer socialists offers a reminder that the United States has a rich history of visionary, humane and highly successful socialist governance — in Milwaukee and dozens of other cities. And that it can have a vibrant future in Zohran Mamdani’s New York.
