I get the motive behind proposals in the Legislature to punish those who would use violence to disrupt speakers on the state’s public university campuses. But I’m also very leery of government efforts to control speech.
Focus on winning the 2018 elections with a Democratic message of economic security and social justice. Restore checks and balances. Vote.
This Never Trumper sees no impeachable offense.
The right-wing extremist’s disregard for the Constitution is well documented, and now he’s reportedly joining Trump’s DHS.
The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala & Kanavas, analyze the possible budget end game for transportation funding. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and Michael Best Strategies.
Does gerrymandering or Democrats’ urban density tilt map? U.S. Supreme Court could decide.

In “Two Minutes with Mitch” radio personality Mitch Henck gives his two cents on whether Donald Trump can be taken out just like Richard Nixon.
Clarke’s new role will be as a public liaison between DHS and police agencies, which is really amazing considering his poor relations with the Milwaukee Police Department and even his own deputies.

Without a doubt, comprehensive tax reform is the key to economic growth and creating more jobs.
The Trump Administration’s move can be seen one of two ways: Either it feels as though it was backed into a corner or it feels as though it has nothing to hide.
It’s good that Clarke is leaving, and we hope he can do a better job in Homeland Security than he ever did here. We’ll be watching to see.
The sense of relief that coursed through Milwaukee May 17 was immediately mitigated by fears of what this means for the nation’s immigrant community and the concept of sanctuary communities.
The Democratic Party needs younger leaders, new voices, renewed energ and a new vision. She helped get us where we are but she can’t get us where we need to go.
Albert Walker, whose clients include many Packers players, has years of experience but can’t run his own shop.
