Sykes on the Daily Standard Podcast talks with Jonathan V. Last and Michael Warren about the Cohen tapes of Trum, the Russia summit and more.

Pardon me for wondering if Wisconsin taxpayers haven’t given Scott Walker a $4 billion campaign donation.

New data shows AG not just slow to go after rapists, but drugs and firearms cases.

May we always have elected officials like Ellis–in both parties–who speak clearly and care deeply about this state.

The Congressional District 1 primary is coming up, and the WisOpinion Insiders Chvala and Jensen handicap the candidates hoping to replace U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Janesville. Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.

Blank has weathered much in these five years — battles over cuts in state funding, raids on UW faculty from other schools, controversy over tenure policy, as well as slippage in UW’s national research ranking.

Candidates are actively misleading the public about what the position can actually accomplish.

Just three candidates have a chance of winning.

Trump would rather cling to the notion that he won the election fair and square than engage with the possibility that a foreign power meddled in the process or outcome.

RightWisconsin’s James Wigderson interviews 3rd CD GOP candidate Steve Toft.

If you’re truly worried about voter disenfranchisement and turnout, you should be more concerned about putting up a likable and inspirational candidate than voter ID.

Ron Johnson’s Moscow trip confirms pro-Russian Trumpism is the future.

And what this may say about the Democratic Party.

To be successful, Democrats must focus on Gov. Walker’s failures and show Wisconsin voters their vision for the state, rather than attacking each other.

When candidates challenge an incumbent, they only have one option: To convince voters to change course. In doing so, they often have to fabricate a new reality from which they then vow to save a state’s citizens.

Violence and bullying are often committed by those who are ignorant of what they’re angry about.
