  • Could Madison WI burn like Maui?

    We like our ribs charred, not our back yard! All a sudden, Maui doesn’t seem so remote! Or California’s Sierra Nevada. Or Canada’s Northwest Territories. The lovely Lisa asked if we should grill ribs on the back 40 this noon. (We did and they were delicious! Aye, there’s the rub!) South-central Wisconsin is under a…

  • Denied!

    You can’t lose if you refuse the news! Donald Trump did not invent election denialism. Kari Lake of Arizona, Loren Boebert of Colorado, and Janel Brandtjen of Menomonee Falls WI are not the only sore losers.  Democrats have been denying their defeats for the last 50 years or more.  Don’t let the Janel Brandtjen wing…

The former was criminal and violent. It did succeed, albeit for only about 12 hours. The latter did not succeed and falls within the…

  • Trump used mail-in voting to scapegoat the defeat he knew was coming

    All that election year, polls showed Trump losing! Politico has the best short synopsis of Donald Trump’s plan to steal an election he clearly lost and for which he will soon be criminally indicted. A fair-use excerpt: Trump rejected advice from his own allies, like campaign manager Bill Stepien and House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy,…
