Wisconsin families are being left behind by partisan politicians and they need a leader who will stand up for them and deliver results.
We need to rebuild civil discourse, whoever wins the election.
Recently, I read an article by Mark Belling, titled, “Wisconsin is not stopping noncitizens from voting, they are all on the honor system.” Belling correctly points out that checking a box to declare whether you are a legal citizen is our state’s safeguard mechanism – not exactly a ringing endorsement for election security.
Republicans will control the Senate after the Nov. 5 election. The question is, will it be with 51 senators, or as many as 58?
This week, the FBI very quietly revised numbers to show that violent crime actually rose by 4.5% in 2022.
The meteorologists have become targets of the lunatic fringe thanks to Georgia’s belligerent Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who proclaimed that the government is controlling the weather, directing hurricanes at “Red states.”
The record gains by PBMs come on the backs of patients, who aren’t consistently seeing savings on their medications. I urge Congress to pass a law that reigns in PBMs’ unfair business practices. Now is the time for action, or patients will continue to pay the consequences.
It’s not just the Beloit district struggling to balance the books.
The simple answer is we keep sending the same politicians back to Madison.
This is not the time to close and consolidate schools.
Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway is serious about needed cuts if the budget referendum fails.
Federal pandemic funds no longer available for operating costs.
I’ll put the American people first in Congress.
Our small towns, farms, and local businesses are struggling to stay afloat, and it seems like no one in Washington is paying attention.
Wisconsin elections are decided in the margins. This time, they could also be decided by the marginalized.
How to outspend your opponent and lose ground doing it.
While our nation has always engaged in truly frothy politics, what has developed and taken hold over the past decade is just not healthy. It is corrosive and dangerous to our democracy.
If ‘woman’ was removed from Harris’ identity, someone who practiced law, worked as California’s attorney general and was elected to the Senate would meet basic job requirements for the presidency.
No tax on over time encourages people to work over time – to add productivity to our economy. No tax on Social Security is totally appropriate given you already paid income taxes on those dollars. And no tax on tips is brilliant.
This circus fraud of a campaign is illegitimate, but the media dares not to examine it, or to call it out as they reap millions in campaign and elections revenue from elites.
