The Church must quickly act to hold the decision makers responsible for their choices and to make clear to others that there is no tolerance for those in authority who abuse their privileged positions.
Not a replacement facility. Community-based alternatives work much better, more cheaply.
On Daily Standard Podcast, Charlie Sykes talks with Bill Kristol about U.S. Sen. John McCain’s legacy.
We know from the work of John McCain and Russ Feingold that partisans can come together with the purpose of upsetting the calculations of the elites who have made it their business to control our politics and our governance.
On the Steve Scaffidi show on WTMJ-AM, RightWisconsin Editor James Wigderson discusses the legacy of U.S. Sen. John McCain.
Stakes are high, including control over 2020 redistricting.
Campaign operatives, in exploring how best to win, wonder if Evers should be borrowing from Barack Obama by way of Abraham Lincoln – assembling a “team of rivals” to knit the side together and carry the message in rallies across the state.
Eight years ago, Scott Walker campaigned for governor by bragging about how he drove an old Saturn wagon and packed his own ham sandwiches for lunch. Now he’s using a state plane, paid for with our tax dollars, for things like going for a walk or making sure he’s back in Madison in time to catch a football game.
Regardless of party or post, now is the time to stand up against Trump’s attempts to run roughshod over our democracy, over basic decency, and over the good of the whole. Silence is complicity.
The University of Wisconsin football team’s star wide receiver, Quintez Cephus, was suspended indefinitely from the team on Monday after he was charged with sexually assaulting two reportedly intoxicated women in his apartment in April.
Like so many others, I will greatly miss my friend. We will all be poorer without his leadership. He was a modern-day rough rider, and those of us who knew him well will longingly remember those days when we could join the charge by his side.
The death of Arizona GOP Senator John McCain on Saturday reminds the nation of how low American politics has fallen.
David Blaska and Brian Schimming share thier thoughts on U.S. Sen. John McCain.
As your (congressman, senator), I will support our president when he deserves it and try to push him to be a bit better when I can. I will adhere to a positive vision of conservatism, one in which every American has the freedom to live his or her life according to their own wishes.
Wisconsin voters expect and deserve political news coverage to be non-partisan, not bi-partisan.
The flooding that ravaged Dane County – – home to the State Capitol, our largest public university, and a powerful urban and rural economy – – cannot be dismissed as a fluke in isolation.
Wisconsin’s Group Insurance Board voted to remove an exclusion for transgender health insurance coverage for state employees. That means gender confirmation surgery and related treatment will be covered by insurance beginning in January 2019.
If Walker and Brad Schimel are successful, millions of Americans will face economic ruin. The 2.4 million Wisconsinites with a pre-existing condition could be immediately kicked off their plan, no matter how minor the previous injury or how serious the current condition.
UW students already demonstrate a healthy approach to football by showing up late to games. They might do even more for social justice when they stop showing up at all.
We should want people on the Supreme Court of the United States who are of high character, possess extraordinary legal minds, and spend their time in the mainstream of legal thought. All of this is true of both Kavanaugh and Kagan. It is also noteworthy when the nominee or justice has an interest in legal and civic education in Milwaukee and beyond.
