When Democratic Gov. Tony Evers vetoed the Republicans’ package of $392 million in tax cuts and debt payoff, he had no way of knowing how soon elected officials in the Capitol would need that cash.
Using Defense Production Act could save lives, but Trump won’t act.

Her campaign charges against the Supreme Court amount to slander.
Citing safety concerns due to the coronavirus pandemic, some elected officials and others have called for the spring election to be postponed, while others have said it should continue to avoid leaving some offices vacant during the crisis.
In times like these, our tendency is to demand that the government “do something” about it. I assure you that our government IS doing as much as it can to respond to the virus. But we need to “do something” too. We need to stay home if we are sick. We need to find ways to work, shop and participate in society remotely or without exposing ourselves and others. We need to support local businesses in any way we can. We need to remain calm and do our part.
The profound social consequences of this pandemic have punctured the bubble of our version of normality.
Evers has not yet issued any orders that would provide for emergency, temporary, or out-of-state licensing for medical professionals.
The real Joe Biden is itching to speak out but is being advised by his insiders to temper his past blasts at Trump. Like him or hate him, the nation needs Trump to succeed for the sake of millions of US lives – plus he is all too eager to paint any opposition as “un-American.”
Wisconsin GOP Senator Ron Johnson keeps showing that he is in over his head.
In the place of democratic socialism or big government liberalism, the Trumpian-Walker approach is monopolistic corporatism, complete with an un-unionized work force in an economy that simply doesn’t work for many. This is the real Trump-Walker gravy train.
As the spread of COVID-19 becomes a national health problem, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, grade the performance of President Donald Trump and Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers on their response to the pandemic. Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.
Republicans and Democrats will work together to defeat coronavirus.
Collectively, our state has a role to play for addressing public health challenges and making our communities healthier for all. Our capacity to empathize with others has the ability to save lives.
As compelling as the need to protect Wisconsin’s citizenry against Coronavirus may be, the need to protect the citizenry’s freedom will always take precedence.
The Marine Corps often refers to the concept of an 80/20 (or even 60/40) solution. This means that, under the gun, one should move quickly to implement the solution, whether it be 80 percent or 60 percent perfected, that most likely addresses most of the problem. You accept the imperfection of the solution, and anticipate that you can improve it as you go.
As the deadly COVID-19 pandemic sweeps through the country, we face an existential threat. That threat is tyrannical government. In Wisconsin especially, we risk the loss of our right to govern ourselves.
Market and economic troubles were at the core of upheavals in the late 1980s, early 2000s and 2008. The “Black Swan” of 2020 is a bird of a different feather, which makes it more difficult to follow for young companies and investors alike.
Corporations have already abused this law meant to provide crime victims special rights.
It’s been 25 years since Gail Shea quit her job with the then-Wisconsin Elections Board to become the executive director of a brand new nonprofit aimed at tracking the huge amounts of money being lavished on Wisconsin politicians.
