  • Why won’t mayor Satya share the pain?

    Where is the empathy? Congressman Mark Pocan did not use the word “Deplorables” to describe those who protested the statewide coronavirus lock-down 04-24-2020 at the WI State Capitol. His condescension was palpable enough without it. The farmers, tavern keepers, and hairdressers who asked for relief from the resulting economic paralysis were motivated by “fear,” or…

    Even TV-3’s Neil Heinen gets it! Why isn’t WI State Journal weighing in? WISC TV-3 did great job reporting the Orchard Ridge neighborhood association’s call for more public safety by adding more police officers to the Madison city budget. ⇒ That budget will be debated next Tuesday, November 12, in the City-Council chambers. The meeting…
