While Alex Jones has no exact analogue on the left, we have to watch him, and also watch out to make sure that something similar is not emerging on the left.
Ironworker and activist hopes to win Paul Ryan’s seat.
There is zero chance that the shooting of U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise earlier this week will change anything about the gun debate in Washington, D.C.

America values freedom, freedom leads to opportunity, opportunity leads to progress. That’s our story as Americans – it’s one that my dad taught me, and it’s a story that I’ll pass down when I have children of my own.
The WisOpinion.com Insiders, Chvala & Kanavas, debate Republican infighting over transportation funding. Sponsored by Michael Best Strategies and the Wisconsin Counties Association.
My Wisconsin Works for Everyone welfare reform package offers hands-on skills and job training.
Republicans had an opportunity to really do something meaningful about the lead crisis in Wisconsin, and they chose loyalty to their campaign donors instead.
There is reason to believe Wisconsin has what it takes to compete.
