Earlier today I used an article from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel about the communications brouhaha between the Democratic governor and the leadership of the GOP controlled legislature. The term sexism got tossed around in the halls in the Capitol. And then this happened:
Responded Fitzgerald in a statement: “That is completely […]
Anti-LGBTQ Protesters Pester Idyllic Bay View
The Bay View Community Center (BVCC) attracted some unwanted attention May 4, 2019 because of a story hour they were hosting. The story hour?
“May the Fierce Be with You,” was the story hour’s theme, and it featured Star Wars-related titles, including a comic book and two picture books aimed at […]
The world celebrated International Women’s Day 2019 on March 8th. In honor of the occasion Governor Evers posted this photo of the women on his staff:
What was intended as a feel good moment quickly soured. Take another look at the photo. Following publication of the photo, a number of posts began appearing on Facebook […]
Legislatures and governmental bodies at all levels of government have traditionally had any number of clergy or elected member open meetings with prayer. It’s been unconstitutional since the passage of the Bill of Rights…and it is unconstitutional today. It is really time that we weaned ourselves from this ‘tradition’.
I have felt this way […]
WMC Proposes New Socialist Programs
The WMC (aka Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce Foundation) is a conservative and very successful business lobbying group who have found ready accomplices in former Governor Scott Walker, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald over the past several years. Despite supporting the various business tax cuts provided by the state legislature, supporting […]
The One Resolution That Should Pass By Acclamation!
It is Black History Month in the United States and the Black Caucus of the Wisconsin Legislature would like to pass a resolution celebrating black leaders in America. As I said in the headline, something like this should come flying out of committee and pass on the floor by acclamation.
But wait, the GOP, […]
YES Virginia, You Need a New Government!
I am not going to Google all of the news stories around this and provide the usual links or quotes or other validations but there are some included here anywahy…I just couldn’t help myself. Most of us have seen enough of this nonsense and have a pretty good handle on what is going on.
A […]
Fox News: And they’re coming in with diseases
Although this story ran for while on Fox (and ridiculed across social media) and was picked up in other media as a scare tactic against migrants and refugees attempting to enter the United States…the administration, while not putting the rumor to rest, obviously didn’t believe it…since there apparently haven’t been any medical evaluations for refugees […]
So Where Is The Organization of American States?
Way back in 1948, the United States and a number of Latin American countries formed the Organization of American States. It acted as a defense pact for the Western Hemisphere and a Cold War deterrent…sort of. But some of its other functions were to provide aid for economic support and stability, bolster regional co-operation, and […]
Brett Kavanaugh Is NOT Fit To Be A Supreme Court Justice.
Professor Christine Basey Ford’s testimony was telling…it was credible…it was believable…and I believe her.
But after Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s behavior in his afternoon testimony, this whole thing should be a moot point. After the anger, the crying, the counter accusations, the obfuscation, the boldfaced lies, it is obvious that Judge Kavanaugh just flat out isn’t […]
