Donald Trump was not the first president to declare, “My first duty as president is to protect the American people.” But no president has abandoned that duty so deliberately as Donald Trump.
The coronavirus pandemic hit the U.S. hard, and the Trump Administration stepped up to protect the American people.
Why marginalized communities feel a collective guilt in America.
The column below reflects the views of the author, and these opinions are neither endorsed nor supported by WisOpinion.com. At Alliant Energy, our purpose is to serve customers and build strong communities. But the power of our purpose goes beyond
Today, the agendas of both political parties are shaped at the national level rather than locally. Accordingly, representative democracy in America and in many of its states is seriously ill.
As the population of Wisconsin ages and parents have fewer children, enrollment in K-12 schools in Wisconsin is on the decline. In fact, in the 2018-2019 school year, there were approximately 5,000 fewer students starting kindergarten than were in 8th grade in Wisconsin public schools. Students who finished kindergarten in 2019 will be graduating high school in 2031.
The silent epidemic of rapid adultification of Black males.
The Washington Post’s Woodward will close out the 2020 edition of Idea Fest with a special discussion of his new book, “Rage.”
The state Supreme Court ruled the Green Party presidential candidate will not be on the fall ballot, and in so doing ensuring that absentee ballots will be mailed this week
The left-center has been routed. The far left pretty much runs it all and there isn’t even much of a loyal opposition.
The column below reflects the views of the author, and these opinions are neither endorsed nor supported by WisOpinion.com. For my family, personal safety will never be an abstract concept. After an attempted home invasion, I understand it as something
I get physically upset when the president demeans men and women who served America in battle.
That we must protect Wisconsin’s God-given natural resources, such as our water, is manifest. That we must also maintain fidelity to the Wisconsin constitution and to the people’s sovereignty is equally so. The attorney general’s power grab destroys liberty and must not be allowed to stand.
Wisconsin has a deep-rooted agricultural heritage that perseveres today. Our state cannot run without the dedicated farmers and producers who serve our communities.
Independent voters in key legislative districts disapprove of the job Republicans are doing to fight the Covid-19 virus, but they’re not happy with Governor Tony Evers, either, according to polling by a Republican-leaning organization.
In all the discussions about systemic racism and implicit bias, since the shooting of Jacob Blake by a Kenosha police officer, many have denied that there is a problem. Yet, conversations with Black community leaders and residents yield a very different determination.
There are so many proposed policing reforms swirling in the Capitol—with even more expected from an Assembly task force whose members haven’t been announced—that it’s fair to ask whether any of them will become law when the new Legislature convenes next year.
Trump and Wisconsin GOP Senator Ron Johnson made the U.S. number 1: more COVID-19 cases and deaths than any other country.
The Trump administration has frequently targeted regulations governing the production and use of fossil fuels, a prime contributor to global warming and consequential climate change. Trump himself keeps insisting that coal and oil jobs have to be saved, referring to climate change as a hoax.
As Wisconsin heads into the final stretch to the November election, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, handicap each party’s chances in races for state Senate and Assembly.
