Running in the Republican primary to serve in the seat once occupied by McCarthy, Wisconsin State Sen. Leah Vukmir recently took her campaign straight into the gutter with an attack on incumbent U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin that might have made Joe McCarthy proud.
Study finds local companies Manpower and Kohl’s near the top of obscene U.S. pay gap.
This may shock people, but family members disagree from time to time.
While Scott Walker and his Republican legislative colleagues are touting Wisconsin’s economy in their bids for re-election this coming November, they were hit with yet another study that doesn’t speak all that well for their tutelage these past eight years.
Walker donor gets $100 million Foxconn project for which his company has no experience.
Taking over Milwaukee’s public schools would galvanize Republican and independent voters.
The Wisconsin hemp law, Act 100, clearly states processing hemp is legal. But those who buy CBD oil seem to still be in a legal gray area.
But is its better economic performance due to more liberal policies?
Neither state — yet — is beating the other hands down over the last seven years.
Governor Walker’s cruel, inconsistent health policies show that he is trying to surpass Trump’s punitive lead.
The constant scorn and ridicule against Foxconn by the candidates runs counter to what some voters consider to be the only shining example of leadership shown by Gov. Scott Walker.
Obviously, there are plenty of decent Trump supporters who merely oppose liberalism’s excesses and the urge to destroy ideological opponents is strong on the left as well. But there are some Trump supporters who will go to the mattresses to defend his dishonesty and narcissism.
Now that the primaries have set the field, the WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, analyze two legislative districts set for special elections in less than a month.
Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.
Can the University of Wisconsin-Madison discover innovative ways to boost the incomes of 10,000 people in Dane County over the next two years? It’s a mighty big challenge, but it could pay off for both the people of Dane County and the university. And, possibly, for the rest of Wisconsin, too.
Though Baldwin’s progressive politics might make her an ideological mismatch for the increasingly red state, the senator’s campaign released an ad this month that’s probably resonating with a lot of Wisconsin voters.
As we fume about the nightmare presidency of Donald Trump from inside Madison’s liberal bubble, it’s worth noting that the president’s most pivotal supporters are only about 100 miles to the southwest, not some far-away conservative bastion in Texas or Montana. And that same nearby region may well determine the duration of the Trump era.
The survival challenge for rural Wisconsin, which includes many municipalities of 5,000 or fewer people, is one of the state’s most vexing issues.
If you’re a disenchanted GOP supporter of Gov. Scott Walker looking to take some shots at him, the liberal Cap Times in Madison is the perfect venue. And so former transportation secretary Mark Gottlieb talked to reporter Katelyn Ferral and the Cap Times gave Gottlieb plenty of space to air his complaints.
How do you say good bye? It isn’t easy, but after ten years as your state representative, I’ve decided to step aside to focus my efforts on dealing with cancer, which has unfortunately returned after a period of remission. While I may be headed out to pasture (sorry, the farmer in me couldn’t resist), I do so knowing that Wisconsin is moving in the right direction, and that we’ve come a long way over the past decade.
Johnson hasn’t offered a word of criticism of the president who created the nation’s worst long-term deficit situation in 75 years. But how can he, when Johnson is a co-creator of the problem?
