Gov. Evers Shouldn’t Waste His Time on Foxconn
It’s become painfully apparent to nearly everyone in the Sate of Wisconsin that the Foxconn development isn’t going to be the project described in the contract that former Governor Scott Walker signed with the company. With that in mind Governor Tony Evers wants to negotiate a new contract with Foxconn.
Gov. […]

Former House Speaker Paul Ryan to teach about U.S. government, political polarization at Notre Dame
Former House Speaker Paul Ryan will teach at the University of Notre Dame next school year, the school announced Monday.

Did We Save UW-Stevens Point On The Backs of Faculty
The University of Wisconsin Stevens Point made national news last year when it announced that it was scaling back liberal arts offerings and eliminating a number of majors. Nobody was giving them kudos at the time but they were struggling under a deficit and declining enrollments.
But not, low and behold, they have […]
NO! Because Too Much Money Would Go To Milwaukee
After recent announcements out of Milwaukee County government and the Mayor of Milwaukee’s office complaining that Milwaukee sends more money to Madison than is sent back…we get this:

The story has always been…Wisconsin spent far more for Medicaid than it should have…if it had taken the Affordable Care Acts expansion and the attached federal funds…it would have saved money. Governor Scott Walker and the GOP legislature didn’t do that…they put their own little expansion in place and we paid and paid for it…Wisconsin […]
Looks Like A Recount for the Supreme Court Race
In Wisconsin, recounts very seldom change the outcome, but I expect we will see a recount here (despite the fact that Judge Hagedorn has declared victory):
In the meantime, Judge Neubaur is preparing for the recount per an email from her campaign this morning.
Billion Dollar Referenda On Today’s Ballot
With the current state laws around property tax freezes…school districts must get permission to exceed those limits by putting referendums (referenda?) on their local ballots.
And they are some of the taxing authorities that love these low turnout odd year elections…because they can rouse supporters to vote…hopefully…and get the referendum passed. So they are […]
