No one is laughing, Jimmy Kimmel
Charlie Kirk’s Great Sorting Out. Aside from part-time jobs at the porcelain factory in Sun Prairie and an iron foundry in Oshkosh, Blaska made his living (such as it was) on the back of the First Amendment. So it was disheartening to hear this morning my old friend Mizz Vicki barking over the AM airwaves…

Disagreement is not evil

We do enjoy the politics — tie-dyed with a…

It IS the culture, stupid!
‘The stuff that cannot be quantified’ After she defeated Blaska for Madison school board, Ali Muldrow invited your scribbler to her talk show on WORT-FM. Like any good progressive, the host Defunded the Police and sponsored race-based outcomes. The station itself sometimes resembles Radio Free Hamas. Ms. Muldrow’s first question: “Are you carrying?” (“You don’t…
