  • Gov. Tim Walz & Minnesota taxpayers get fleeced

    Democrats staggeringly gullible! Now that Minnesota has retained Paul Bunyan’s axe in its dismal 17 to 7 defeat of the Wisconsin Badgers men’s football team, it’s our privilege to throw a little shade on its governor. You remember Tim Walz, don’t you? Guy the Democrats picked as Kamala’s running mate. (We say again: DJT has…

  • Sierra Club goes Woke, goes broke

    Not content with fighting coal, it took on cops and Israel. It is a cautionary tale of what can happen to an organization and to a society that goes Woke.

Now Mayor Satya wants to fly the Ho Chunk flag at city hall at equal height with the U.S. flag. The stolen land…

  • Is Madison ready to quit the crazy?

We asked if the Council would finally pull the plug on the do-nothing Independent Police Monitor and its anti-cop Police Civilian Oversight Board. He thought maybe one…

  • It won’t sell in Rockford

    How Democrats lost the working class. The party of More Free Stuff may have shut down the federal government but Blaska’s Policy Werkes will soldier on even if, like those generals summoned to the Hegseth/Trump endurance test, we sit on our hands, stone-faced and cold sober. Paul Fanlund visited his hometown of Rockford IL so…
