If I were Dennis Degenhardt and running for the 58th Assembly seat left vacant by the premature death of Bob Gannon, I would not run as just a Democrat, I would run as a Democrat/Independent. Even though Donald Trump carried
Installing – – whew, no Senate confirmation needed – – former Wisconsin developer, anti-science and inside-the-government pollution enabler Cathy Stepp as director of the US EPA Great Lakes region – – is like giving the oil tanker captain who drove his ship onto the rocks in
The WisOpinion Insiders, Jensen & Chvala, talk about their Christmas gifts for Scott Walker, Paul Ryan, Tammy Baldwin and other Wisconsin politicians. Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.
Do you support legislation that would eliminate permits to build on state wetlands?
In the face of Trump-era nativism, leaders in Madison’s Latino community show persistence and altruism rather than empty outrage.
Total cost is $1,774 per Wisconsin household.
WHA-TV’s production of “Our House: The Wisconsin Capitol” in late November was an impressive behind-the-scenes look at our state’s most impressive building.
Hypocrites make inclusive greeting cause for loud grievance.
The “effective altruism” movement, though sometimes controversial, is forcing donors and charities to think about accountability and transparency in philanthropy.
The tax bill that just passed Congress and will be signed by Trump without a single Democratic vote has turned both sides into P.T. Barnums. How can the GOP sell it and how can the Democrats keep it alive as a negative campaign issue in 2018?
Undoubtedly, the tax bill’s unpopularity is tied to the sagging public opinion of the GOP.
On this week’s episode of the RightWisconsin Conversations, Wisconsin Attorney General Brad Schimel talks about the Government Accountability Board and the push back on the Department of Justice report from the Ethics Commission and the Election Commission. Schimel also talks about state Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Evers and whether the Department of Justice should represent the superintendent in a lawsuit by the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty regarding the REINS Act.
It is troubling to see the John Doe investigations and fallout back in the news as it has escalated to the point where legislative leaders are calling for Elections Commission Administrator Mike Haas and other officials to resign, despite no accusations of wrongdoing or any recommendation by the DOJ for their resignation.
I’ve been raising the alarm about these GOP-led depredations against wetlands, groundwater and the wider environment, noting in particular the unbelievably short-sighted scheme on which Rep. Brostoff is focusing to turn over a million acres of irreplaceable Wisconsin wetlands to right-wing political control and private-sector ‘development.’
Absurd FCC regulations have kept rural Wisconsinites without access to high-speed internet for far too long.
Critical health programs, all of which have bipartisan support, have been fighting for Congressional attention for months.
In a gift to prosecutors, the Wisconsin Supreme Court just issued another shoddy ruling, replete not only with shabby legal reasoning but also a savage callousness regarding criminal appeals.
Much worse than Chicago’s. And little difference between public and choice schools.
House Speaker Paul Ryan of Wisconsin deserves chief credit for the reform. Ryan has pushed tax reform for years, and he keenly understands how high business taxes are undermining U.S. economic growth.
Republicans seem ready to squander their big success on taxes by hunting the white whale of welfare reform.
