These are individuals that have made politics their religion – their Salvation comes from their favorite politician and the party is their church.
The Legislature’s Joint Committee on Finance has withdrawn its objections to the expenses charged by Dane and Milwaukee counties to administer the presidential recount, but concerns persist about inflated costs and poor stewardship of campaign funds by liberal elections officials.
A cretin who had broken the laws of this land to make an entrance to the building was casually sitting with his foot on a desk in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office.
When Black people and their supporters go to Washington to peacefully protest they are brutalized by an army of law enforcement officers, but a terroristic mob of thousands of angry mostly-white people show up, law enforcement was not ready to deal with them.
The mob had marched to the Capitol after Trump called his presidential election loss an “egregious assault on our democracy” and told his followers to “walk down to the Capitol” and not show “weakness.”
Hillary Clinton wasn’t that far off when she described half of Donald Trump’s supporters as a “basket of deplorables.”
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, look back at the major stories of 2020 and offer a glimpse of what may happen in 2021.

Democrats as a class never acknowledged the 2016 election, invented a hoax that Vladimir Putin was pulling Trump’s strings, entrapped the man’s campaign aides and General Flynn, spat on White House employees, tried to impeach over a telephone call.
With their words and actions, Ron Johnson, Tom Tiffany, and Scott Fitzgerald have proven themselves unfit to lead. They should all resign.
The path forward for conservatism is to reject both its far left wing and all of its smug elitism and its far right fringe and all of its dangerous flirtations with violence and paranoia.
We’ve asked a few of our favorite friends and contributors to look into their crystal balls to try to predict what will happen in 2021
The research-based “Marshall Plan” suggests a framework to quickly reverse one of the most damaging effects of the pandemic.
Sun Prairie’s Woke educrats want families to know that their children are in good hands in the wake of this week’s violent political demonstrations in Washington, D.C. — thanks to “social-emotional” learning standards.
