The WCD has never been shy about spending taxpayer money on fanciful projects despite the slim prospects for success. After all, it’s not their money. For this expansion, the WCD borrowed $420 million.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, review the latest maps in Wisconsin’s ongoing redistricting process. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
My takeaway from listening to a podcast about a focus group was that Biden and fellow Democrats have thus far failed to convey an impression of sensible, understandable progress to reassure those who are not immersed in politics.
Because they can get away with it.
The former president, a legitimate nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize for the second time, was aced by joint winners: a Filipino woman and a Russian dissident, both heads of news organizations.
Like the extreme climate change agenda pushed by Biden and congressional Democrats, Evers’ carbon neutral plan has hit energy consumption reality head on.
When the commission released its final maps this week it became apparent that the process of drawing them was not done in the open and was instead done by an unlawful “walking quorum” of members gathered for the express purpose of sidestepping the open records law.
