A Note From Mitch McConnell on Presidential Overreach:
Avoiding Another Partial Shutdown
Congress has until Friday to come up with a solution for the current budget issues and to avoid triggering another partial shutdown of the federal government. It is unlikely that the Democrats or Republicans want another shutdown and without the influence from the White House…this would probably have been resolved by now. The president, who […]
What IS Your Privacy Worth? And Who Is Big Brother?
When I was a child…or should I say…back in the day (or is that totally passe’ now the boomers use it too?)…Big Brother was a gray cloud on the horizon and understood to be a warning about future government intrusion.
But that day is here NOW and boy were we naive. Big Brother is Amazon […]
Apparently the new governor who hasn’t even been in office for a month. Go Figure! The Republicans in Madison have learned the Trumpian diversion move to a T!
Come on guys…you need to sit down and shut up…if you aren’t going to own your own mistake:

Despite multiple assurances from the CEO of Foxconn, President Donald Trump, former Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzegerald, it looks like the Foxconn LCD plant ain’t a gonna happen!

Unfortunately Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer didn’t get the message as he said this following President Trump’s signing of the continuing resolution:
“Hopefully now the president has learned his lesson,” …
Gaaaak…Sen. Schumer just threw away the high ground.
But thankfully Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi who actually managed the Democratic position […]
Thank You To All of the Unpaid Federal Employees.
It was remarkable that the nation continued to function as well as it did during the partial shutdown…given how many key law enforcement employees were required to work without pay.
And thank you to the dedicated federal employees who were locked out of their jobs and suffered severe financial risk as well.
The nation owes […]
Early in January I questioned the use of Twitter by the president. He constantly uses @realDonaldTrump to expound on culture, society, and the media…all things related to the executive branch of the federal government…international relations…his campaign in 2020…and too often a stream of consciousness without any semblance of rationale thought. So I suggested that […]
Cancel All Flights for Private Jets
Two weeks ago I posted about TSA agents who were working without getting paid…and how they had started to call in sick…and possibly putting the nation’s flights at risk.
Over the past several days articles have started to surface about a similar crisis with our air traffic controllers. They are already working short […]
In his State of the State address on Tuesday night, Governor Tony Evers stated that he was keeping one of his campaign promises and was instructing Attorney General Josh Kaul to remove Wisconsin from the federal lawsuit to declare the Affordable Care Act as unconstitutional. The Republican leadership who control the majorities in both houses […]
