CNN reports that Trump has decided whether to further betray everything he promised voters in 2024 by entering his *second* entirely elective foreign war, this time with Venezuela, which is no threat to America whatsoever:

It’s a beautiful day for a run! Thanks to everyone who has chipped in to Franciscan Peacemakers so far. If you can, chip in $45 or what you can to help hit our goal of $1,000 raised today.

Only in America is gun violence the number one cause of death for kids. Tragically, another kid didn't make it home from school in Milwaukee today.

This will only change when enough people demand their elected leaders listen to parents and kids instead of the gun manufacturers.

When I talk about private voucher schools being unaccountable, it makes some people very mad. But how do you explain this:

All Wisconsin public and private school choice schools must administer the Forward exam every year. Public schools had a participation rate of close to 98% in 2025.

Get ready for even higher energy bills.

WeEnergies is an investor-owned utility that has an incentive to spend more and build more. That’s probably why they’re funding a new front group pushing for massive data centers to be built in communities across the state.

Ron Johnson and some of his Republican buddies wrote a provision into the legislative appropriations bill that would allow him, personally, to get a special $500k payout.

This whole party is still more concerned with taking care of their criminal allies and enriching themselves than they are with helping anyone in the 60% of the country that is struggling.

Why do you think that President Trump only recently rediscovered the word "groceries"?

Why do you think President Trump keeps refusing to offer food assistance to struggling Americans, despite multiple court orders requiring his administration to do so?

The Trump administration seems to have found a neat workaround on the air travel delays for themselves.

The rest of us will have to keep waiting until Republicans decide to reopen the government.

America should set up a health care system that prioritizes public health over private profit.

What a nice change to wake up to news of victories for the people devoted to building a better world; instead of the endless news of a morally-void president devoted to destroying it.

Health care costs are about to skyrocket, our poorest neighbors are about to starve, and authoritarianism continues to creep closer to home.

Hunger, health, and staying alive shouldn’t be partisan issues up for debate.

The COVID crisis should have led to universal single-payer healthcare. Instead, it led to a new gilded age, and the dumbest politics imaginable.

Mass transit is a public service that should be getting more of a priority if we want to build our community.

We spoke up outside of Project Concern today, along with my colleagues Reps Sinicki, Kirsch, Clancy and Arney to applaud our neighbors who are ramping up donations to food banks to make up for Republicans who are withholding funds for FoodShare for political leverage.

I'd like to live in a country where federal agents aren't terrorizing neighborhoods and kidnapping people without due process.

Are we better off with corporate giants putting up the money for the Epstein Ballroom, if in exchange they get to keep a rigged tax system in place that forces US taxpayers to make up their $278 billion gap?

What an amazing feeling it is to know that 7 million other Americans also recognize what a uniquely awful moment in American history we are in and join together at joyous, fun events to demand better of our government than runaway corruption, state-sponsored terror, and fascism?
