What We Are Reading
Two years ago when I took over publishing duties here at Blogging Blue, I added a feature called What We Are Reading. It contained the headlines from three or four mass media articles each day with the appropriate links. It was a disaster and I deleted them all..and no they aren’t coming back.
But if […]
The Most Transparent President In History Did What?
Well…he held a secret dinner meeting with two CEOs’: Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg and 21st C entrepreneur, Peter Thiel. And apparently it was perfect! You know, as perfectly normal.
Facebook confirmed to the network that the pair (Zuckerberg and the president), along with Facebook board member and Trump donor […]
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 […]
The Facebook Cambridge Analytica Is The Dead Puppy of CyberSecurity
Over the past week, I have posted two disparate items that seem to come together in the controversy surrounding Cambridge Analytica’s use of Facebook data. The first was GOP Congress: 14 Children Gunned Down, Crickets, Dog Dies In Airplane, Immediate Bill, where nothing has been done about children being murdered and nothing changes, but […]
Obviously Blogging Blue doesn’t have the wherewithal to buy access to premium internet services if we lose net neutrality. So will you still be able to get your daily fix of skewed political commentary and sarcastic responses to commenters? Will the page load at a reasonable speed? Will it be found at all?

UWM’s Participation In the 2016 Presidential Campaign
With Wisconsin still in play before the April 5th primary election, both parties were very active around the state. And the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee played a pivotal role in the campaigns.
The Democratic Debate visited campus on February 11th and utilized the Zelazo Center which is an arts performance center on Kenwood […]
Apparently I’ve been banned from commenting on the Facebook page of the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office. I’m assuming I was banned after I left a comment on the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page noting that during his time as Milwaukee County Sheriff, David Clarke once attempted to assist a drunk […]
It’s no secret that I’m not a supporter of Republican Congressional candidate Dan Sebring, who’s once again hoping against hope to unseat incumbent Democratic Rep. Gwen Moore here in the fourth Congressional district.
While I’ve certainly been critical of Sebring here on the blog, I did find some agreement with this statement from his […]
Wisconsin conservatives support suspect tactics to fight Walker recall efforts
As the efforts to recall Republican Gov. Scott Walker get underway, I suppose it’s to be expected that some conservatives will feel compelled to attempt to undermine those efforts by any means necessary. Over on Facebook, I found one such example of a conservative (our old friend Mark “Notalib” Phillips, no less) offering some […]
To Friend Or Not To Friend…
I caught this on Boots and Sabers, and thought it was a very interesting case study of the new millenium. It seems the West Bend School district is considering a new board policy on social networking. A key takeaway from the article:
If the policy is approved in […]
