Trump echoes Jim Jones by declaring “Don’t Be Afraid of Covid.”

Governor Evers probably could have made it a little less obvious. By scheduling an end to an emergency order limiting bar and restaurant capacity three days after Election Day, he made it abundantly clear that Wisconsin could have its social life back as soon as he was sure it voted the right way.

Gov. Tony Evers and his power-grabbing health chief issued yet another emergency order Tuesday— this time limiting public gatherings to no more than 25 percent capacity.

Other states with full-time legislators have met 18 times more frequently than in Wisconsin.

Is it too much to ask Vining to call for peace before the next round of rioting and looting strikes her constituents?

Barrett was nominated with the expectation that she would adhere to her personal beliefs about abortion, rather than follow well-established precedent.

For Wisconsinites in particular, a lot is riding on November, and we feel confident that Badger State voters will recognize that, when Democrats and Joe Biden consistently failed Wisconsin, President Trump delivered.

Zero tolerance for voter suppression should be the national standard.

Last week’s disaster of a presidential campaign debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden was met with shock and sadness by American allies and rivals alike, according to a New York Times round-up of reactions from around the world.

Exposed to Sen. Ron Johnson who tested positive, but won’t wear mask in court. Attorneys fear risk for themselves and clients.

I hope he recovers quickly — and then loses overwhelmingly.

Trump and Johnson have downplayed the risk of coronavirus from the beginning.

Yeah, he said it. Doesn’t matter how many times you pressed rewind, the words were clear as day, “Stand back and stand by.” This statement, from Donald Trump, during the first 2020 presidential debate has hung around like the nooses of the old south. Swinging, from the POTUS’s mouth, was the unspoken nod to white supremacy.

Milwaukee County’s chief medical examiner told WISN 12 News the state’s pandemic death total includes more than 100 people who had COVID-19 but died primarily of other causes.

The inevitable result of months of legislative inaction has arrived. What now?

With soaring caseloads, ramped up hospitalizations, economic pain, and unemployed workers seeking federal assistance the last thing we should need deal with during a pandemic is a power play at the statehouse. Yet, that is precisely what is happening.

It’s time for the silent majority to find their voice and engage this November, or our journey to the year 1984 will continue until the silent majority is no longer able to live in peace. Orwell’s book 1984 offers a clear vision of a society no one should want any part of.

While he was a lifelong Republican, I suspect Mel would be far more likely to support an experienced, capable, reasonable and decent man such as Joe Biden in this election, even though he would undoubtedly differ on some policy issues. To Mel Laird, the country came first, above political affiliation.

The UW-Madison may just have reopened some dormitories but the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, are as concerned as many parents about the health of the students as well as the financial health of Wisconsin’s colleges and universities

Just how well did Tuesday night’s presidential debate go for Democratic nominee Joe Biden? So well that members of his party and their allies in the media alike are urging him to skip the next two.
