It appears that there are a number of people who are ripe for DE-naturalization. By their words and actions, they have violated their oath of allegiance to the US, which includes allegiance to the Constitution as written.
Personally? I'd go further. Even if they were born in the US, what they are doing is sedition.
Throw their asses back into the Middle East. Random spots. Use helicopters if convenient.
One Democrat raises the possibility that state residents could "buy in" to the health plan currently given to State employees.
We thought that might be interesting, so we looked around a bit. ("A bit" is all you can do unless you're actually enrolled in the plan or have unlimited time.)
One would pay $325/month for the standard-deductible family plan.
Sorry!! Can't tell you what the deductible is, nor anything about a dental plan, but let's take a SWAG and say that the health deductible is $4,000./family/year.
$325/month is clearly a subsidized premium--that is, State taxpayers kick in a bunch of money to bring the premium down to that level. So the first question is this: what IS the subsidy? Next: will the same subsidy be offered to non-State-employee enrollees?
Next question: how will the State afford it?
Certainly, Ms. Roys has answers. Right??
By the way: in many parts of the real world, family premiums are about $750/month--or more. State employees are getting one Helluva good deal.
Demonstrating more ignorance than one thinks possible, here's Democrat Crowley:
..."We need to raise the minimum wage. The fact that we have a $7.25 minimum wage here in the state of Wisconsin is just mind-blowing to me. And the reason it’s mind-blowing is because I got my first job at 14 years old, and I made $7.50 an hour. ...
(Just for the record, you were overpaid.)
Lemmeesee heah, David.
You were paid $7.50, which means that the "minimum wage" of $7.25 was meaningless. See, $7.50 is more than $7.25. You learned that in 3rd grade, right?
It's still meaningless, David.
Someone named "Danny Davis"--who has served in the military, notably during Desert Storm--has denied that 'there are Communists' in America. We cannot understand what the Hell he's trying to say, but here's a handy-dandy graphic for him and for all the Wisconsin citizens who intend to vote Hong in the general.
N.B.: Get familiar with the Supreme Soviet model by reading this graphic. They're the same. Then smell the coffee.
Just forget about "global warming." That's so '90's.
More interesting: why US firefighters are NOT in Canada to help.
...Most of the firefighting takes place as an outcome of private-public contracts for costs. {SOURCE} The Canadian government blocks U.S. companies from fighting fires in Canada because the Canadian government wants to only pay Canadian companies and workers. U.S. firefighting is not allowed to assist in Canada and get reimbursed....
IOW, "Do it for free because........Canada!" Or sumpin'sumpin'
...Conversely, the Canadians quickly want to come to the U.S. to fight fires because the USA reimburses firefighting companies at a higher rate than Canada. [SOURCE] The USA has no federal restrictions on Canadian firefighting assistance.
Canadian firefighting professionals would rather fight forest fires in the USA because they make more money. There is no incentive for U.S. firefighting professionals to volunteer their time and effort without getting reimbursed; which is the position of Canada....
Watch Trump squash those bugs when USMCA drops dead and gets replaced by bi-lats.
Heh.
As you might expect, the "experts" are dipshits.
....social media is the amplifying force behind the teen takeover trend.
She explained that the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for planning and impulse control, is still developing, while the limbic system, which manages emotion and reward, is highly active in adolescents.
"Social media really amplifies this contrast in terms of brain development in adolescence," Stoeckel said, adding to the need for real-world connection.
"Social media platforms have been very strategic in terms of using algorithms to create this sense of urgency," she said, of that natural desire youth have for peer connection. Once teens gather, the group dynamic can temporarily override their "discrepancy from their values and their identity development" as they become caught up in the momentum that originated online — what Stoeckel described as "deindividuation."...
OK. Let's deindivuate the damn kid from his phone. Problem solved!
.. [Another dipshit at the] American Enterprise Institute, said that these takeovers should sound the alarm that America's youth need connection.
"It's not out-of-control youth," Abrams said, per City Journal. "More often than not, it is a desperate need for connection. ... If you are a teen today, you grew up — or came of age — during Covid, when you were locked down."
He continued, "Your social space is a screen; you are lonely; you are probably a little depressed. … You are desperate for human interaction and social contact. And when there's a chance to gather and be part of something larger, we see teens flock to it."...
He mis-pronounced "correction."
Yahoo News: the name says it all!
Everyone knows that the Good Guys lost the Spanish Civil War, right? After all, Francisco Franco--who led Spain following the end of that war--was a Bad Guy. No less a historian than Chevy Chase says so!
Yah, well, what the real history tells you is this: Communist tactics never change. See for yourself!
The Bishops of Spain have been working on the real history for quite some time.
...Echoing the words of Pius XI’s Divini Redemptoris, which described communism as “intrinsically perverse,” the Spanish bishops tell a story entirely different from those handed down by the mainstream. The main thrust of the letter is what one hardly ever reads anywhere, and certainly not in school books: an indictment of the stealthy communist penetration into the public arena, heavily financed by the U.S.S.R. for years [in the USA today it's the Chinese Communists] before the Nationalists ever reacted by seeking help from the dictators of Italy and Germany.
“On July 18, 1936, the military revolt took place,” wrote the bishops, “and the war which is still ongoing broke out. But be it noted, first, that the military revolt was not produced, from its beginnings, without the collaboration of the sound element among the people, which joined the Movement in great numbers, and it can therefore be qualified as a civic-military movement.”...
...the massacres did not begin in 1936, as a result of the conflict between, on the one hand, the left-wing parties that had “won” the elections and, on the other hand, their nationalist opponents — but much earlier, out of an unprecedentedly brutal religious persecution carried out by well-trained communists, anarchists and socialists, who were determined to wipe out the Catholic Church in its entirety.
Elected to office in 1931, the leftist factions, under the common name of republicans, once having done away with the monarchy, immediately created a climate of anti-Catholic hatred which culminated in the burning down of churches and the cold-blooded murder of countless priests, bishops, nuns, seminarians and laity....
... the left worked on corroding social relationships, emptying out the economy, weakening the police forces, and then filling the void with ideas meant to support and perpetuate the revolution....
The correct wording? "...degrading or eliminating family relationships.." and ".....filling the void with lies, pomps, works, and empty promises ..."
... “at the parliamentary elections of February 1936, despite a majority of more than half a million votes over the Left, the Right had 118 fewer deputies than the Popular Front, because the votes of entire provinces had been canceled at will, thus corrupting at its source the legitimacy of Parliament.”...
Gee. Vote-tally manipulation and "re-districting." Sounds familiar, right?
...On the 1st of May hundreds of young people in Madrid publicly amassed “bombs and guns, powder and dynamite for the coming revolution.” On the 16th of that same month, there was a meeting between the envoys from the U.S.S.R. with the Spanish delegates from the Third International at the “People’s House” in Valencia, where it was determined, in the ninth of their agreements, to entrust No. 25 of the Madrid “Radios” Committees, together with the policemen on duty, with the task of the elimination of the political and military personages destined to play an important role in the counter-revolution ...
May Day!.....and the St. George riots.....also note the elevated threat-levels against Trump's Cabinet, SCOTUS picks, and Trump himself.
...To prove their contention that “the massacre of people and things by the communist revolution was premeditated,” the bishops also specified that “79 specialized agitators had arrived from Russia shortly before the uprising. ...
This next part hasn't happened here. Yet. It's the "Terrorism" stage.*
... we can safely say that about 20,000 churches have been destroyed or totally ransacked. The priests who have been put to death, even just limiting the count to the secular clergy, amount to about six thousand....
... Women were violated, showing no respect even for the ones who had consecrated themselves to God. Tombs and cemeteries were desecrated. This work of destruction was carried out with the battle cry ‘Long live Russia!’, under the banner of international communism…”...
There's another parallel here, but in the USA it's not the Church which is the target:
...The worldwide disinformation campaign, financed directly by Moscow, used the classical subversion technique of the left: blaming the tragedy on the victim, i.e. placing the Catholic Church in the defendant’s docket, so that, after having completely destroyed her material presence, they might succeed in annihilating her reputation as well. ...
The tactics are the same. Organize, make ridiculous promises, get well-financed, build stocks of weapons, terrorize & assassinate, blame the victim(s), make empty promises, degrade family relationships, and attack the Church.
Trump's call-out of Communists was not a flight of fancy. He is right. The Press--of course--ridicules him, just as their predecessor Hemingway did about Franco.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
*The Other McCain has something on that.
...I obtained a samizdat copy of “The Soviet Strategy of Terror,” [authored by Sam Francis] but it’s packed away in my papers somewhere in the garage, so I can’t quote it, however the key insight is this: The Soviet Union, in its worldwide warfare against the West, sponsored terrorist activity as part of a general strategy. In other words, terrorism wasn’t merely a tactic, but had deep roots in the Communist worldview, by which its use was justified, and was employed to destabilize conditions in such a way as to foment revolutionary upheaval and advance Soviet interests.
What is terrorism? It is the use of violence for political purposes, and is akin to guerrilla warfare — “insurgency,” as we are now wont to call it. Guerrilla warfare is used by those who, unable to defeat a stronger opponent through open combat between regular military forces, engage in raids and ambushes, then return to concealment among the civilian population. The distinction between guerrilla warfare and an organized terrorist campaign can be difficult to make....
Burning the churches, killing the priests, raping the nuns.......we call that "terrorism."
To repeat: Trump is right. Did he read Sam Francis?
Maybe he did.
"Well, y'see, Officer, I was just toodling down the road when my Jeep went into 4-wheel drive and decided to climb up this here building....."
The automotive industry’s increasing use of over-the-air technology to update vehicle systems makes it more susceptible to cyberattacks, analysts say, urging more intervention in the sector.
OTA technology is wireless tech that can deliver new software, firmware, fixes and data to internet-connected devices....
Cool!
...The growing penetration of OTA technology in the auto industry has raised concerns, however, particularly regarding transportation infrastructure.
Its use represents “a unique national security concern,” Gabriel Lim, senior analyst at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore, told CNBC.
“Aside from data privacy concerns, the potential of a foreign actor sabotaging the controls of a moving vehicle is a possibility that countries like Norway, Denmark, and Britain have expressed concerns about,” Lim added....
Oh. Not so cool.
...Late last year, Norwegian bus company Ruter conducted tests on two buses and found that one had potential risks linked to OTA technology.
“There is access to the control system for battery and power supply via mobile network through a Romanian SIM card. In theory, therefore, this bus can be stopped or rendered inoperable by the manufacturer,” the company said....
Not cool at all.
Buy well-used (and well-cared for) cars. They don't have this BS.
Many think that JD Vance's stance on Israel is authorized by the White House.
So when this happens:
...Netanyahu has also delayed the trip [to the US] after failed efforts in recent days to arrange a meeting between him and President Trump, reports i24 News in Israel, based on what the news outlet said were sources familiar with the matter.
Those efforts ultimately failed, with no date finalized for a meeting and no preliminary understandings reached regarding its agenda or expected outcomes, preparatory steps that are typically completed before a summit between national leaders....
There's a lot of "if-but-perhaps" in the above.
Best read at this time?
"I don't really have time for you to drop by to shoot the shit so you can get another PR photo, Benji."
Another read?
"MY country has had enough of YOUR war, Benji. Please don't call me again."
You didn't see the shit-eating grin of Marc Elias on this one, didja?
The DC Circuit has allowed the Post Office to move forward with its election-mail rule requiring States to submit voter-lists and serialized ballot barcodes BEFORE the USPS will mail the Federal ballots.
(That ruling shuts down a stay-order from another far-Left King-Wannabee Fed judge.)
In addition: the USPS will NOT deliver any ballots to clerks AFTER Election Day.
States will have to comply, meaning they must demonstrate that the voters are legitimate US citizens who are legitimately alive and living at the addresses they gave on registration. Further, it will be "Election Day," not "Election month-and-a-half."
Kinda like elections should be held, no?
Tony Evers can eat s**t.
Gee. Bennie Shapiro dislikes JD Vance.
Shapiro wants you to believe that it's all about Vance's social-economic theories, but we all know better; Vance is no fan of Wars for Israel and has been vocal about that.
Shapiro has not yet enlisted in the IDF.
The implosion of the (D) Senate candidate in Maine is in the books.
Replacing said candidate? Well..........it's complicated.
When you studied US geography, you learned that Maine is about 1,200 miles distant from Wisconsin (capitol-to-capitol.)
That was then.
Now? They're only a couple of blocks apart.
At this time, the WI Dems have a Maine-like cast of characters. They have a dead-beat pickup artist who does not have a driver's license, a Communist psychiatric case, an innumerate RN (former) frontrunner, a totally un-likeable Madison Karen, and a last-place white guy. All of those except the second one will be politely shoved out of the race to accommodate a likeable dude who simply cannot grasp "governing" anything larger than his car. The second one--the psychiatric Commie--will remain in the race.
On primary day, the Dem Party will activate its well-used Election Fraud techniques to defeat the Commie with an 81-million-vote dump for the likeable dude.
Hooboy!
File this under "Things That Cannot Happen"
... A number of weeks ago True the Vote broke the story that a company called Konnech in Michigan was storing data on American election workers on servers in China. True the Vote leaders Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips were, of course, ridiculed by the so-called mainstream press. Then, Los Angeles arrested the head of Konnech and charged him with violations of U.S. laws on the handling of personally identifiable information – by storing it on servers in China....
Of course, Ann Jacobs will (correctly) scream that 'Konnech does not have any installations in Wisconsin.' To which the correct reply is "So F'n What? Trump said there was Red Chinese interference in the Fraud of '20, Ann."
...Konnech wasn’t just storing data in China. Konnech was using contractors inside China to do work in the United States on American election systems. This is the exact language in the criminal complaint filed by Los Angeles. ...
It immediately goes to "Much, much, worse":
.... Konnech gave Chinese contractors in mainland China “super-administration access” to the electoral systems on which Konnech worked. It is incredible enough that Konnech itself ever had such access. It is literally almost beyond belief that Konnech would have been in a position to grant such access to other entities. Yet, again, it is confirmed by the criminal complaint filed against the company....
Yah....
What does The Smirk have to say about that?
The City of Milwaukee's house lawyer is a Lefty politician and son of another Lefty politician. So--as you might expect--he issued an opinion openly defying the Supremacy Clause of the US Constitution. (All this time you thought only the Democrat Socialist Party was the Home of the Nutbags!) We are only surprised by the speed of his work; apparently the City Attorney's office is not very busy.
So.
Now the real fun begins. ICE agents will continue to apprehend violent illegal aliens, and illegals who are NOT violent. Just ILLEGAL. The Screeching Chorus will be shooting video of the activity and furiously dialing 9-1-1, but only after they fix their hair and makeup and call the TeeVee "reporters". First things first, ya'know.
Will Milwaukee police officers respond? Or will they have other matters on their plate, such as drug-gang murders, stolen cars, rioting (now called "teen takeovers), and all the other mayhem Milwaukee's becoming famous for?
Inquiring minds, and all that.
Buy your popcorn futures now!
Under Wisconsin law, Red China can purchase these lists, just like anyone else.
...the People’s Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history, resulting in China’s illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files,” Trump said in remarks from the East Room of the White House.
“That information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, political party preferences, and other sensitive data that would be needed to register to vote and engage in other nefarious activities...
And who--exactly--made that legal?
Your political parties. They draw their mailing lists from those registrations. It's very convenient for them, ya'know.
It may be a while before this gets implemented, but the Democrats/Totalitarians passed a law back in '21 which mandates that new cars will have camera-and-sensor devices which "analyze the driver" for safety.
No surprise that the Totalitarians pushed it through.
Nor is it a surprise that no Republican has proposed that it be voided by a new law.
Democrats are obviously Totalitarian.
Republicans are sneaky about it.
But hey! Trust Us!!
Keep. Buying. Ammo.
Trump's speech made a few MAJOR things clear. (Start at 47:00. The analysis is given by CDM, which has been on this case since the Great Fraud of '20.)
The Red Chinese penetrated US voting software/systems and now possess records on 220 MILLION voters.
A Venezuelan cartel wrote and promulgated the software used in ALL electronic voting machines in the US. That software allowed manipulation of the results--that is, vote-switching or vote-deletions. The software/hardware was also used in other countries.
There are 278,000 ILLEGALS registered to vote in the US; 250,000+ in just four States. Actually, there are more: Tony Evers (among other Democrat assholes) will not release voter data to the US.
The CIA, NSA, FBI, Homeland Security, and the US "Vote security" agency (CISA) knew about all of it and covered it up.
The press--Scripps, NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, AP, knew and were complicit in burying/denying the information, especially The Smirk who is a (treasonous?) member. Someone ought to ask The Smirk why he was so emphatic about those denials.
It's likely that most of this has roots and origins in the Obama Administration. Surprised?
Aside from a number of "elected" people--like Ossoff of Georgia--the obvious beneficiaries are some businesses.
So let's ask Mitch McConnell's "wife" Chao--a Red Chinese operative--exactly why she fled the country after Mitch 'fell down and got hurt' and went incommunicando. Did she get advance notice of The Speech from her operatives in the Intel Community?
My bet is "Yes."
The government of England is pounding War Drums.
The British government will revitalise decades-old war plans, nudge the public to stockpile food and water, and host a wargame exercise to test its home defence strategy, it has been announced.
Britons will be advised to keep a home stockpile of long-life food, bottled water, and essential medicines when the government launches a new resilience drive later this year. Coming as part of a broader series of updates to homeland defence — which has been all but ignored in many respects since the end of the Cold War — the push was justified in part by Westminster as a response to what they identified as a threat from Russian “hybrid attacks”....
Ah, yes. The Russians Are Coming!! The Russians Are Coming!!!
Should sound familiar; the Brits blew up peace negotiations over Ukraine when BoJo the BoZo was in charge over there and the Brits continue to push for a NATO kinetic response in that beleaguered killing field.
But they're not about to do it themselves, you notice.....
... In 2025, Professor David Betz of King's College London, a specialist in modern war and unconventional conflict, publicly argued that the British government is preparing for the possibility of civil conflict at home while using the Russian threat as a politically convenient cover....
Civil war wouldn't surprise; the Brit government has been acting against the interests of native Brits for a decade or more, favoring the mass of Muslim immigrants and their rape-teams. There have been loud and large protests over the problem in the last 60-90 days.
Gee. It will be just like the terms when our grandparents immigrated. That means you can expect (D) screeching, girly-girl footstomping, and lots of marching-around-around-around by Monday.
The Trump administration is rescinding a Biden-era rule that ignored a migrant’s use of welfare, food stamps, and other tax-paid subsidies when determining eligibility for permanent legal status.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is preparing to eliminate the Biden rule and will reinstate the “public charge” test on whether or not a migrant is a good candidate for a green card, CBS News reported.
The “public charge” test determines if a migrant is self-sufficient, and thereby a worthy addition to our society, or if they are on public assistance and are therefore not a productive prospect for residency....
The name "America" does NOT translate to "Free Shit Here."
As mentioned at RedState, 'the return' of "manly men" to the (D) Party means that "manly men" had left a while back.
Yah, well, we can prove that:
You have Tampon Tim. You have Tony Evers. You have James Talarico; and let's not forget Peter Burgelis.
So..............who is the (D) Party--the Party of "Manly Men"--running for Governor in Wisconsin this year?
A woman who cannot count, yet has an RN accreditation. Another woman who has no friends in the Capitol except the Teachers' Union, which is NOT dominated by "manly men" in the membership. Then there's the Studley Bearcat who would not drive his own car to work, so he ordered the State Patrol to escort him back and forth. That just REEKS of "manly," doesn't it?
And..........waaaaaaayyyyyyyyy at the bottom of that pile..........is the only one who might actually BE a 'manly man.'
The WI Dems did not get the message.
We have never been fans of Dan O'Donnell, whose show is "All About ME!! DAN!! ME!! MEEEEEEEE!"
So it's no surprise that--about 10 days ago--he was actively discouraging an "Operation Chaos" vote in the (D) primary--which would have Republican voters marking the "Hong" box on the Democrat ballot, with the idea that having the Democrat Socialist Communist Hong running against Tiffany would be just fine. That's an idea that we endorsed several weeks ago, by the way.
D O'D didn't like that, telling his 49 listeners that the Democrats have a very good chance to WIN the Governor's race and blahblab yammery-slop do NOT run Operation Chaos My Name is Dan and I am the greatest, just like my kids and my vacations and you have to listen to my podcast for the greatest INSIGHTS on EARTH from MEEEEEEEEE...... sign up here!!!.........
Ugh. Make It Stop!
A far better analysis comes from Jessica:
... Here’s what makes the [upcoming] RGA [Republican Governors' Association] ad so brilliant, and why it’s driving Democrats crazy. It’s helps boost Hong in the primary AND destroys her for a general. At the same time. All that reveals, though, is how out of of step the Democrat primary voters on the fringe are with most Wisconsinites. But in a five-way primary, the fringe can prevail. The RGA would like to ensure it.
It’s not a state secret. Of course, Congressman Tom Tiffany – who posted strong campaign finance numbers today, raising $8 million this period – has the strongest chance against Hong. And, yeah, the “tell” is that RGA spent $2 million to air the ad in Democratic Milwaukee and Madison, and on CNN and MSNow....
(Yes, I listen to D O'D, briefly, every day, before switching to WHAD 90.7 for actual intellectual stimulation: classical music NOT hammed up by some no-talent rock-n-roll arranger.)
JD Vance has this right.
JD Vance has claimed he is the target of an Israeli-funded propaganda campaign over his Iran peace push, and that Jeffrey Epstein had ties to the 'highest levels' of Mossad.
The vice president made the explosive allegations during a nearly three-hour sit-down with podcaster Joe Rogan....
Oh, it gets better.
.... The vice president, who complained he has been branded an anti-Semite, declared that Israel is losing the public opinion battle in America.
He also said that 'figures' inside the Israeli government are manipulating American public opinion to keep the war going 'indefinitely.'
Vance then shifted to the administration's handling of the Epstein scandal, revealing that the disgraced financier 'clearly had connections to the highest levels of American intelligence' and 'Israeli intelligence.'
When Rogan noted that most people believe Epstein was working for Mossad, the vice president did not dispute it. Vance noted that it was Mossad 'or CIA or some other deep state, whether in America or Israel or another country or both.'...
And it gets better than that!
...'What I have seen...is that there just wasn't dispositive evidence. And if that dispositive evidence ever existed, it was probably destroyed after 2006, 2007,' Vance told Rogan.
On Epstein, the vice president agreed with Rogan that the financier was running an operation to pressure or compromise powerful people....
There were contemporary reports that Epstein Island was flooded with FBI agents who stripped the buildings clean of any and all papers, videos, and computers. Same for his Arizona playpen.
There is a reason that JFK wanted the CIA dismantled. JFK was assassinated.
Richard Nixon knew the story, too--and made the mistake of telling his CIA director that he knew. Nixon was assassinated by other means.
You Deplorables? Eat s**t and die paying taxes.
Ah, yes!! The Experts designed this.
The Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District will investigate a large blockage in its underground drainage system that may have contributed to two rounds of severe flooding in the Bay View neighborhood.
MMSD announced Wednesday it found a large clog in its underground sewer overflow system, saying it might have played a part in the intense flooding Bay View experienced over the last year....
They have hauled about 20 truckloads of debris out of that tunnel.
How did that happen??
Easy! When the Experts designed the tunnel, they did not place a back-fill valve or debris-catcher bars on the entry to the tunnel which is underwater in Lake Michigan. So lots of junk from Lake Michigan migrated INTO the tunnel over the last 20+ years.
Another 'Dr. Fauci signature project' for you Despicables to eat raw and enjoy!
The questions no "reporters" ask....
Judges at the Milwaukee County Courthouse are calling for an immediate replacement for the nearly 100-year-old safety building at the Milwaukee County Courthouse as extreme heat disrupts operations and threatens the legal process.
On Wednesday, as outdoor temperatures reached 93 degrees, conditions inside the courthouse safety building were nearly as hot.
“It is 95 degrees in the courtroom, you are sweating through your clothes, you can barely concentrate,” Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Laura Crivello said....
... County leaders have proposed tearing down and replacing the safety building, a project estimated to cost nearly $900 million. They are seeking state assistance to reduce the financial burden on taxpayers, warning that delays will only increase costs....
Oh. So sad. (Imagine the tortures of judges, juries, lawyers, and criminals from the awful Days Before Air Conditioning! One is led to believe that there was NO justice done back then!!)
What an enterprising young fellow like T J Dysart should be doing today? Asking a lot of questions about WHY a near-$1 BILLION teardown/new building is necessary.
We'll bet the answer is "Deferred Maintenance"--that is, County Board and County Exec deliberately ignoring critical maintenance-and-repair requests over the last 20-30 years. HINT: Scott Walker is famous for this.
They want tax money from Oconomowoc, Rhinelander, and Suamico, and they have the nerve to say that State taxpayer money "reduces the burden on taxpayers"?
Milwaukee: Earning the title "Money Pit of Wisconsin" every day.
This is not unreasonable.
...The Supreme Court should have to live in the reality of the world they judicially create. No additional public security should be afforded. They [already] have a security detail that supersedes any security level a taxpaying American citizen might be afforded.
No expanded security details should be afforded to government employees just to avoid the consequences of their ideology.
Mrs Barrett and her family can carry self-defense firearms, wear protective vests and worry about their security in the parking lot of the local supermarket just like we do. Not to be obtuse, but the Constitution equally applies....
Elsewhere, a pundit observed that following the "Swatting" incident at ACB's home, her voting record migrated towards that of Kagan.
Maybe Amy's not man enough for the job?
The saying is true: when you offer money for something, you'll often get it. In this case, Biden offered money for "disability", and "disability" answered the call. PowerLine found the news item.
... Why did millions of Americans, including a great many young men, suddenly decide that they were “disabled”? Because there was money in it. The Biden administration unleashed a torrent of trillions of dollars in unearned income, which just about anyone could qualify for by, among other things, being “disabled.”...
There's another target for Trump. Here's the graphic:
We kinda knew this was going to happen.
Remember that NDAA contains the Israel-Pentagon unifying language (S.224).
Watch a "squeaker" vote pass this Frankenstein monster. Some Democrat will lose the 'spin the bottle' game and be forced to push it over the top.
Money buys stuff.
UPDATE: Well, well. The Senate will not vote on this monstrosity.
That's a bit of a surprise, but it is what it is.
Ms. Francesca Hong is in the lead for the (D) nomination for Governor of Wisconsin.
Ms. Francesca Hong is a member of the Democrat-Socialist Party.
The Democrat-Socialist Party wants to create a new US Constitution, which would abolish the US Senate and replace it (and the House) with a new, "proportionate" Congress--that is, a Congress which will be run by cities such as New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, (etc.). The President would report to the Congress, and the Supreme Court would be "adjusted" until its rulings complied with the wishes of Ms. Hong and her fellow-travelers.
Not that long ago, such a group was called the Supreme Soviet.
Ms. Hong & Co. are not prepared for the resistance which will emerge. Therefore, we strongly urge Ms. Hong & Co. to STFU and retire from public life.
A raggedy bunch of Kollege Kids with Drama Club activities are not. ready. for. prime. time.
Notice the very careful wording here.
Gov. Tony Evers announced that President Donald Trump has denied the state's application for FEMA relief from April's flooding.
In a news release, Evers slammed the Trump administration for "playing politics."
Evers then called the denial a "slap in the face" and committed to "continue to fight every day to get Wisconsin every cent we believe we are due."
The Evers administration plans to appeal the decision within the next 30 days. ...
(First off, Tony the Twit deserves more than just one 'slap in the face.')
What is NOT said?
Cities, towns, and counties sought the money, not individuals. FEMA regs are clear; they require that the city/town/county have more than X dollars in damages. In one example, Racine County's claim was $83,000 or so short of the minimum. Cities, towns, and counties should have "rainy day funds" available; that's just good management.
Tony the Twit can stamp his widdle feets all day long. This has nothing to do with politics, although his screeching tells you that Tony the Twit thinks 'politics' is everything.
This candidate, who is NOT loved by most professional Democrats, has a big problem: her campaign's financial picture is Horrible Terrible Awful.
So she held a presser.
Jessica McBride covered the event for WRN. It's solid coverage, as you might expect.
But down there near the end, a hidden but important question about Rodriguez' next step emerges.
...Rodriguez admitted that she learned about the problems last Tuesday, when her ads didn’t show up on TV. On Wednesday, her campaign flagged that a media invoice hadn’t been paid.
Well, isn’t that interesting because she allowed Crowley to drop out of the race and gush about her – and demand that all of the other candidates get out too – in a big press conference on… Thursday.
An honest and transparent person would have told him the truth, even if she was still unraveling the problem. “Hey, David, in all candor, you should probably hold off for a few days until I figure a couple things out.” Not doing so was scummy to the point of dishonor. If I was Crowley, I would be super pissed. It’s deceitful....
So.
Which hospital (or doctor) is going to hire Sara the RN after seeing this? Deceit, scummy, dishonorable even to 'friends'........
Word to the wise: if Sara pops up as your nurse, get the Hell out of there.
Apparently some of the Usual Suspects (Communists) think the US is going to war with Cuba.
...The National Network on Cuba (NNOC) has been distributing a document since at least June 2026 urging organizers across the U.S. to prepare to protest in front of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) offices, military bases, recruiting centers and other federal institutions should the U.S. get involved in military action in Cuba. The document, first reported by ADN Cuba’s Gelet Martinez Fragela, provides a coordinated strategy for activists to organize protests within 24 hours should the U.S. military attack Cuba. Just The News was unable to verify the authenticity of the document....
So we looked up NNOC online.
Surprise, surprise!! The Wisconsin branch includes Art Heitzer, who has been a Communist activist since his days at Marquette University back in the '60's.
In the near term, Art will have a discussion about his Communism with THE Higher Power. It may not go well for Art.
Nice to see that at least ONE US Senator is tired of the "Holy Immigrant" B.S. card.
In this video, Sen Schmitt verbally slaps the s**t out of Sen Hironomo because she opposes a bill which would de-naturalize and deport violent criminal immigrants who happen to have been naturalized.
The "fatigue" thing is growing. At first, it was "Black Fatigue", which emerged as a reaction to the constant (false and defamatory) screeching of "RAAAAACISSSSS!!!" over every. damn. thing. that happens to feral black youts.
Now it's expanding to cover immigrants--mostly illegal--who are equally feral, and the Somali Fraud Gangs. They are criminals, they should be prosecuted, they should be deported, and to hell with their "we have family here" crap. "Family" can leave, too.
Sick of the s**t?
It's called "fatigue."
On Bill Barr, "devout Catholic", son of Jeff Epstein's employer, and wherein Lindsey Graham did the right thing.
...The Mueller led DOJ (Rosenstein compliant, Sessions recused) had previously sent a notification to the FISA Court, July 12, 2018, saying despite the Office of the IG investigation showing clear manipulation of Carter Page FISA application process, there was still “sufficient predication” to believe the FISA warrant was appropriate.
The Mueller team were covering their ass, and racing against the clock while hiding information from the public. The letter clearly establishes in July 2018 the Mueller team were lying to the FISC....
...After the December 2019 OIG Horowitz report that exposed how the Mueller probe, DOJ and FBI having clearly manipulated information to continue using the FISA warrant, despite information showing the warrant was obtained using fraudulent information, the FISA Court demanded the DOJ, now under Bill Barr, inform the Legislative Branch (Judiciary Committee) of the July 12, 2018, lie told to them by the Mueller team.
The DOJ had to comply and send the secret letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee. That’s how Graham received a copy of it in early 2020, which he then made public....
...Unfortunately, no one (except Graham) ever brought this up in the subsequent hearings on the matter, and when John Durham testified about his review, he was not questioned about it.
The Mueller team (Weissmann and McCord) successfully used the silo process to hide the deception, and John Durham was instructed by AG Bill Barr NEVER to investigate internal DC actors within the Legislative or Executive branches for their conduct, participation or role in the Trump targeting effort.
Bill Barr was trying to protect corrupt institutions, specifically the DOJ and FBI – and by extension the Mueller team, against sunlight upon their corrupt activity.
The lengthy letters remains -to this day- sitting in the Judiciary Committee data library (link below), as a permanent physical record of a direct lies told to the FISC by a corrupt DOJ, and to this day no one has been held to account....
We were NOT fans of Graham, but he had his moments: standing up for Kavanaugh against a number of other Lying Sacks of S**t in the Senate, and the one described above.
If you read today's headlines, you get the impression that Iran is tossing missiles at other Arab (Muslim) countries. Because Big Mad or sumpin'sumpin'.
In reality, acknowledged by some news sources:
...IRGC announced they launched a ballistic missile attack against the supply, logistics and refuelling station of the U.S. Navy in Duqm, Oman.
This facility is the main logistics centre for American aircraft carriers, the USS Abraham Lincoln and the USS George H.W. Bush....
And...
...Iran’s retaliation attacks after US attacks in Iran’s southern soil
Following US attacks, Iran’s IRGC says it targeted:
- MQ-9 drone hangars & C&C center at Prince Hassan Air Base, Jordan
- Fighter jet maintenance & repair hub centers at US Al-Udeid Airbase, Qatar
( ! ) The supply, logistics and refueling platforms for US Navy & aircrafts of the US Navy in Duqm, Oman
Iran’s Army (Artesh) says it targeted:
- US Patriot system, ammunition depots, and radar sites of the US at a military base in Kuwait, with drones...
So yes, Arab countries.
Even more yes: US war-making facilities in Arab countries.
We are in awe of this one:
John Roberts kicks ass. The chief justice's supremely magisterial end-of-term majority opinion in Trump v. Barbara, the birthright citizenship case, powerfully vindicated the framers of the Fourteenth Amendment. Roberts's impressive historical analysis left the lead dissenter, Justice Clarence Thomas, looking like the bloodied loser of a Trumpian UFC cage match....
Uh-huh.
Roberts writes a suicide-pact version of the 14th Amendment--against all common sense and pertinent precedent in common law and English practice--and someone calls Roberts a genius and Thomas a bumbling moron.
Only on the East Coast is this considered wisdom. Same place as the War for Israel is supported, by the way.
The Wisconsin Public Service Commission pushes "renewable" energy.
Wisconsin Electric rates have increased by THREE HUNDRED PERCENT since 2000.
Gee. Is that just co-incidence?
Nope.
...The effort to increase the percentage of electricity generated by intermittent renewable sources like wind and solar inevitably brings about large increases in the actual price of electricity that must be paid by consumers. The price increases grow and accelerate as the percentage of electricity generated from the intermittent renewables increases toward 100 percent. These statements may seem counterintuitive, given that the cost of fuel for wind and solar generation is zero. However, simple modeling shows the reason for the seemingly counterintuitive outcome: the need for large and increasing amounts of costly backup and storage – things that are not needed at all in conventional fossil-fuel-based systems. And it is not only from modeling that we know that such cost increases would be inevitable. We also have actual and growing experience from those few jurisdictions that have attempted to generate more and more of their electricity from these renewables. This empirical experience proves the truth of the rising consumer price proposition.
In those jurisdictions that have succeeded in getting generation from renewables up to as high as about 30% of their total electricity supply, the result has been an approximate tripling in the price of electricity for their consumers. The few (basically experimental) jurisdictions that have gotten generation from renewables even higher than that have had even greater cost increases, for relatively minor increases in generation from renewables. ...
Think those batteries in Kenosha County will help? Read the REST of the linked essay.
OR, you could read this item:
...Researchers with the National Center for Energy Analytics set out to find out if it’s possible to power the grid with wind, solar and batteries. Their report, which was released Thursday, casts considerable doubt on renewable energy proponents’ promise that batteries can resolve the problems of intermittency with wind and solar.
“This study demonstrates that a wind-solar-battery policy to meet electricity demand is physically implausible, cost-prohibitive, and unjustifiable on the basis of goals to reduce CO2 emissions,” the report concludes. ...
Really? How "unjustifiable" is it?
...To compensate for the intermittency of wind and solar under the renewable-only scenario, the analysis found, PJM* would need to add roughly 10 times the total generation capacity by 2045 than would be needed under the natural gas and nuclear scenario. That extra capacity would not only serve daily and seasonal variations in supply and demand, it would accommodate days in which there’s little to no wind or sunshine.
The study also found that to pay for this ideal net-zero grid with no new nuclear facilities, ratepayers served by PJM would need to fork over $4 trillion over the next 20 years. That figure accounts for savings on fossil fuels. ...
(*PJM = Pennsylvania, Jersey, Maryland, D.C. )
First things first! Get rid of all the members of the Public "Service" Commission; then find people who understand reality as opposed to "dream world" energy scenarios. Dump the idiocies pushed by the Failed Obama/Biden/Evers/Doyle administrations.
Then build nukes and coal plants.
