Falls Baptist Church just wants to bring its faith family together for outside Easter Services — in as safe a way as possible amid the COVID-19 outbreak. But Gov. Tony Evers and his ever-expanding emergency orders curtailing civil liberties aim to put an end to such sacred gatherings.
While Trump backers insist we should overlook his lies and shoddy leadership, they don’t mind tossing grenades of their own.
Democrats were perfectly fine with in-person voting for weeks when Evers insisted on it, and only shrieked about how dangerous it supposedly was when they could blame Republicans for it.
Gather in polling places, gather in churches, and let 11 million die; the new GOP vision.
Amid liberal recriminations and dour reporting of fears in the polling place, Wisconsin’s spring election went on as scheduled Tuesday.
Vos and Fitzgerald literally have placed the very lives of thousands of Wisconsinites in jeopardy just so they can suppress voter turnout to increase the chances of electing a radical right-winger to a full term on the state high court.
Trump’s chances of winning an open election have disappeared despite the Twitter harping of his diminishing fan base. They may still find him amusing but not to vote for.
The bizarre picture of Vos assuring everyone that it was safe to vote while looking like an assistant in Dr. No’s laboratory went around the world, with even the British tabloids The Daily Mail and The Independent reporting on it.
Why wouldn’t Vos, Fitzgerald postpone the election? Because they were safer.
We must be diligent and steadfast when it comes to voting on April 7. Our literal lives depend on it.
Our spring election must be one of those avenues when we send a concerted message about unity and purpose, and it can be done with the safeguards at polling places.
While the fear of the coronavirus outbreak is real and the consequences severe, we’re seeing a growing number of egregious violations of the constitution in the name of public safety.
Wisconsin would be worse off had responsible budgeting not produced healthy surplus, rainy day fund.
How can we have a free and fair election if our citizens are afraid to go vote on Election Day? And how can we justify putting the health and lives of the public on the line when a simple act of the Legislature could prevent it?
If the election goes on as scheduled, under the current circumstances, its legitimacy will be in doubt regardless of the outcome whether it favors the Democrats or the Republicans.
Vos and Fitzgerald must wake up. There’s overwhelming evidence that people gathering for election will spread disease.
Dem Gov. Tony Evers has moved forward, while GOP legislators falter.
While it didn’t get a lot of play in the mainstream media, liberal Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Jill Karofsky’s answers to an American Civil Liberties Union questionnaire really show her judicial activist stripes.
Kelly was a regular blogger from 2012 to 2015, during which he regularly expressed his view that to use government money to benefit the needy is, in essence, forcibly taking money from the some who created wealth.
There is a bill currently in the Wisconsin Senate (SB 789) — Expanding Course Access — that can better equip families and Wisconsin’s K-12 system for what comes next.
