In Wisconsin, Evers and the GOP cut a deal for tax relief and big hikes in school spending, but will the Governor get Democrats to vote for it? A side by side comparison of the accelerating decline of Democrat-run states while Republican-governed states are thriving. And Mark suggests Gen Z is flocking to Church because religious internet "influencers" are making compelling cases on the "why," not just the "what."
...Mark contends war with Iran has always been inevitable and Trump is the first President with the guts and moral strength to address it. Also, more on fascinating trend of Gen Z returning to Catholic Mass and thoughts on the passing of the ever-fascinating Ted Turner.

Data overwhelmingly shows schools improve when cellphones are banned (why aren't all schools doing it?) Is the demise of a legendary Fox Valley radio station an ominous harbinger? Two very different local land use battles: a treatment center in the suburbs and a nightclub in downtown Milwaukee.

The Somali scandal explains everything: crooked Democrats, insane immigration policy, an inept media, a welfare state easy to defraud and the nincompoopery of Tim Walz. Also, the price explosion in gold and silver, a proposal to remove huge chunks of Brewers parking and are smartphones making children myopic (literally, myopic)?

And, will those Olympics be Mikaela Shiffrin's Simone Biles-like redemption after her 2022 disaster? And, the Dai...
President Trump targets Venezuela and fentanyl as he looks out for regular Americans. In the meantime, Trump's chief of staff evidently regrets spilling her guts to Vanity Fair. A fellow judge testifies she was shocked Hannah Dugan aided the attempted escape of a defendant who was the subject of an ICE warrant. And, as the FBI foils a planned Christmas attack in Los Angeles it is becoming more apparent Chris...
