A man in a suit with short hair speaks directly to the camera, delivering a line that suggests a confrontational conversation.

Blaska Policy Werkes

Sen. Eric Shmitt pulled out a grenade and threw the pin

  • There will be no Democrat kumbaya in Wisconsin

    Crowley’s comeback for the ages gives Democrats a real chance. WOW! Just WOW! No one saw Hong/Crowley turning out this close! Looks like the Democrat(ic) party’s establishment stepped in like adults at the high school kegger to assure that Democrats fielded a candidate capable of beating Tom Tiffany. With David Crowley’s comeback for the ages,…

  • We sense a political Hong-over!

    Democrats are clinking their worry beads. Blaska puts his money where his mouth is, albeit, not proportionately. (We’re not LOADED!) We put one whole dollar down on a bet that Francesca Hong gets 39.5 percent of the vote Tuesday 08-11-26 in the Democrat(ic) primary for governor. Enough to edge out (with a plurality) a too-little, too-late…

  • Despite the fires, blockades, and intimidation — Corey Ruiz zone was ‘largely peaceful’

    Defund the Police mob doesn’t want details. Should have known better. The Head Groundskeeper asked our favorite morning Madison newspaper to commend the mayor for shutting down the lawless Corey Ruiz Autonomous Zone. Still waiting. Instead, newspaper editor Kelly Lecker almost revels in her editorial cowardice, bragging that her newspaper refused to even publish photographs…

  • Burning down the town for peace

    Madison’s police monitor promises to ‘f-ing burn this city down!’ It’s a political Rorschach test here in Madison WI. Irresponsible or understandable? Depends whether you’re an over-taxed home owner paying off a mortgage or a social justice warrior voting Francesca Hong next Tuesday. “I will f-ing burn this city down!” No denying: Aeiramique Glass, Madison’s…

  • Blaska manages Madison mayor’s next press conference

    It will be boffo! A victim of burnout, the City of Madison’s crackerjack public information officer, Dylan Brogan, asked the Head Groundskeeper to stage manage Mayor Satya Rhodes Conway’s next news media conference. Glad to do it, pal! Satya, baby, yer lookin’ good! Ready to make some history? Give ’em both barrels, the full nine…

  • Madison progressive alder calls police monitor behavior ‘outrageous’

    Alder agrees: ‘Burn this F-ing City down’ is “outrageous.” Tag Evers is no Republican. By profession he is a concert promoter. Currently in his fourth term as a City of Madison alder. Represents the affluent and very progressive Monroe/Dudgeon/Nakoma/Vilas/Regent neighborhoods on Madison’s near West side. Nice guy. Once asked me to sit down for coffee with…

After 9/11

The urge to blame America and stop it from responding began immediately.

In the years after 9/11, blaming America for the activities of Islamic terrorists became a mania among left-tilting scribblers the world over. When they couldn’t reasonably attach culpability to America—because the attack happened in France or Spain, which consistently oppose U.S. interventions—the enlightened blamed America’s stand-in, Israel. Somehow the jihadists always lacked agency.  …

The war on terror launched in the days afterward involved innumerable blunders and still invites derision from the globe’s expert class. But a quarter-century later, the country hasn’t sustained another strike of similar proportions, and the terror networks that once produced fighters by the thousand have had their leaders killed, their money frozen and their recruits severely pruned.

America wouldn’t, and couldn’t, consent to live with the madmen. — Barton Swaim, Wall Street Journal 

Political stupidity

Another election season is upon us. … One party is hoisting monuments to a fading 80-year-old president who hasn’t done much except get America stuck in another Middle East war while attacking the nice Canadians to our north with irrational tariffs and weird hockey memes. The other is making sweeping promises to do something about the “cost-of-living crisis” through massive government spending and price caps with scant reflection on why they didn’t address the high cost of living just a few short years ago when they had control of government. — John Halpin, “The emptiness of contemporary politics”
