There ain’t no ‘UniParty’ in Madison, you fascist!
Don’t believe your lyin’ eyes! Back when Ali Muldrow was still speaking to us, shortly after defeating Blaska for Madison school board, she invited her vanquished opponent to dine with her at an isthmus boîte frequented by other socialists like John Nichols and Mayor Satya’s chief of staff.

The Right ideas
from ‘the wrong guy.’ News photograph shows Milwaukee Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan leaving the federal courthouse after the third day of trial Wednesday. The injudicious judge is charged with helping an illegal alien escape. Shouldn’t the judge herself be leaving through the secret, backstairs passageway? You know you’re in trouble when a fellow judge testifies…
