Trump Challenges First Amendment and Twitter Use…again!
President Donald Trump is appealing an appellate court ruling that he can’t block users from his @realDonalTrump Twitter account…saying the application of the First Amendment in the case was “fundamentally misconceived.” Whoa…must have been his lawyers on that one…too many multi-syllabic words there!
President Donald Trump is challenging a federal appeals court decision […]
Most of you have probably seen President Trumps tweet ordering American companies to move production out of China. He can’t actually do that but he can increase tariffs and change trade policies to the point to cause that to happen eventually. But in case you missed them:
After eight years as governor of Wisconsin…eight years of trying to contain the Democratic vote in Milwaukee…eight years of starving the city…eight years of restricting Milwaukee school support…eight years of denying funding for mass transit (no trains to Madison, no money for street car, no street car allowed outside the city limits)…eight years of just […]
500,000 American Jobs Just Went Missing!
While the president gloats about the economy and the jobs he’s helped create…the Bureau of Labor Statistics was reporting pretend job numbers. And now they’ve finally come clean:
Turns out hiring wasn’t nearly as strong in 2018 and early 2019 as the government initially reported — by about a half-million jobs.

It is time to roll out the 25th Amendment:
I really don’t think we need impeachment anymore. Between Greenland and AOC and Israel and retweeting nonsense…the president is completely unhinged:

Trump Working On Bankrupting Social Security?
Aaah…the economic news has been all over the place of late. Great Economy, Best Ever. Recession coming between now and 2021. The Fed should lower rates to beef up the economy. Tariffs are getting the job done. Delaying tariffs to avoid impacting Christmas sales. Best stock market ever. Fake news is pushing the recession story…no […]
Ron Johnson: 2nd Amendment is Sacrosanct, but the others?
Is it too soon to talk about gun control (sarcasm)?
After the mass killings in El Paso and Dayton, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel talked with Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson (R) about how the federal government could prevent similar occurrences in the future. Well he’s got the NRA party line down!
“I’m a strong […]
Winning Our Way To A Recession
No…really:
The Dow has dropped more than 600 points, or about 2.5%. Investors have been whipsawed in recent days from mixed signals emerging from the Trump administration about tariffs and the escalating trade war with China.
The jitters were exacerbated amid worrisome economic data from two big countries was announced. Germany posted […]
Who Wants Those Chicken Jobs?
Well apparently not too many Americans. Last week if you’ll recall the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency rounded up 680 suspected illegal immigrants from four chicken processing plants in Mississippi.
One of the plants was Koch Foods and they held a job fair. Not sure how many employees they lost in the raids but […]
Trump Finally Comes Clean On Tariffs
Most of us have known all along that American businesses are paying the tariffs that the president has levied on imported Chinese goods…and in many cases have had to pass along all or part of those tariffs as price increases on the goods that they sell to the American consumer. So we are paying the […]
