Commenting on the fatal shooting of a Milwaukee police officer, U.S. @RepGrothman said violent crime in the U.S. is worse now than a quarter-century ago. Overall and for major cities, the rates are lower, @wisconsinwatch finds. wisconsinwatch.org/2025/07/i…

For the @WisconsinWatch story about a farmer's challenges following cuts to a program where she sold pork to pantries, we made a slideshow showing difficult images of the pig butchering. It's hard to see, but important to understand where food comes from

“What’s unique about older white men is that many of them are not very socially adept. When they retire, they’re not quite sure what to do with their lives ... and feel like they’re not doing anything meaningful and start to wonder, ‘What’s the point of living?’”

Tariffs are on-again, off-again, on-again. But one thing clear, despite a claim by Wisconsin US @RepTiffany, is Canada's tariffs on US dairy are essentially zero. Canada does have tariffs on the books exceeding 200% -- but they're based on quotas. And the tariffs are not 1/2

Wisconsin’s recent Supreme Court election, with $100 million in record spending and wall-to-wall attack ads, spotlighted how politicized the state’s “nonpartisan” high court has become. How did we get here? A former justice's rise and fall has some clues. wisconsinwatch.org/2025/04/w…
