Progressivism has its privileges.
Brother Mike was working the farm one morning when he got a call from The Capital Times. A supervisor, a member of his conservative caucus, had been slurring his words at a county government meeting the night before, the news reporter related. Might have been drunk. What are you going to do about it?
Mike was chairman of the Dane County Board of Supervisors at the time but at that particular moment was attempting to wrest some income from the indifferent soil of rural Sun Prairie. The reporter for the progressive newspaper expressed dissatisfaction with the chairman’s response, which amounted to pledging to look into the matter once he was not otherwise engaged in agriculture.
Soon enough, The Capital Times went up with an editorial demanding the immediate resignation from office of the possibly intoxicated supervisor. Person in question had not been arrested for DWI or for barking like a seal or for impersonating a postman. None of his verbiage, however slurred, impugned race, gender, national origin, or caloric intake. But the supervisor was an “out” Republican, identified as male, supported the cops, and presented as white, so off with his head!
Fast forward to February 2026. Two women — one vice president of the Madison school board, the second a prominent BLM activist — are criminally charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest after a disturbance 12-19-25 in downtown Madison. Both female persons practice progressive politics and are generously endowed with God’s own melanin.
Is Mizz Pearson ‘stabilized’?
One of them, Madison school board veep Maia Pearson, also chairs the Police Civilian Oversight Board, which The Capital Times has consistently championed since its formation during the freak out over the death, by white cop, of a violent, black drug abuser. The agency’s latest police monitor (we’ve lost track) is investigating whether Madison police are as racist as they’ve always suspected for arresting Mizz Pearson. If the monitor actually issues a report, would be the first in the agency’s five years of futility. Our judges score the inquiry an eleven on the conflict-of-interest scale — but that’s just us, apparently.
The other arrestee is Brandi Grayson, a BLM activist and well compensated (as it so happens?) county human services contractor. Initially also arrested for drunk driving, that charge was never filed. This brush with the law follows disorderly conduct and criminal damage to property for allegedly breaking down the front door of a former boyfriend’s home in July 2025. The current progressive county leadership appears untroubled whether their contractor runs her taxpayer-funded operation more responsibly than her life.
Mizz Grayson (it is alleged) called the downtown theater manager asking that she move her car off the demarcated loading zone, a “Karen” and a “fat white (expletive).” Racism is racism, it seems to us. (The fat-shaming we’ll leave for others.) Mizz Grayson drove over traffic cones marking the no-parking zone. Not to be outdone, her passenger obliged several police officers to “stabilize Pearson as she was handcuffed due to her constant screaming and pulling her arms.” Once in the back of a squad car, Pearson attempt to prevent officers from closing the door.
Blaska’s Bottom Line: Tom Tiffany pulls a stunt like that and it’s all over. Mr. Rob at Whitehorse middle school lost his job over less. If expectations are so low for Brandi and Maia that official Madison cannot muster a single “tsk,” is that not a sign of reverse racism and sexism? We await some sign of indignation — if not from The Capital Times — then other voices, if only to prove that ethics are color-blind and nonpartisan, even here in Woke city.
