  • Madison alder races shaping up wet and wild

    A comeback for Marsha Rummel and Nino Amato? If The Werkes were conspiratorially minded, we would wonder why two of the Madison Common Council’s few moderate (not conservative!) alders were being moved into new districts. If our tinfoil hat didn’t already pinch, we’d also note that both Sheri Carter and Barbara Harrington McKinney face hard-left…

  • Madison black leaders support our police

    Not that you would know it from the noise makers!

Blaska confesses to being…

  • Madison reimagines public safety

    A new moderate coalition in Madison? The loss of Paul Skidmore stings but there’s more evidence that the April 6 aldermanic election in Madison WI was not a good day for the Hard Left. As part of Mayor Satya’s efforts to eviscerate the police, she proposed transfering parking enforcement out of MPD. It passsed 11…
