Don't celebrate until it's up and running.

Politicians tend to rug pull Wisconsinites all the time.

I wonder if Ron Walker, I mean Scott Desanctimonius will be there with Boss Vos?

Macklemore coming out spitting fire. Haven’t really heard a popular artist take such a stance in support of Palestine. I’m sure I’ve missed some.  Making no comment on the content only my surprise that he put it out.

Weird how there's no national debt alarmism when it comes to funding weapons/offensive global conflicts

Branding.

"National security" vs "entitlements"

Well, it certainly could be.  But the national debt concerns are alarmist nonsense going on five decades.  The dollar has never been stronger worldwide.

Somebody, please shoot Cardinal Manager Ollie Marmol!

Don't fire him! Shoot him!

OK, I'm only kidding but I am so disgusted at the St. Louis Cardinals that I'm on the verge of softening my hatred for the Chicago Cubs.

Case in point: Cardinal Catcher Wilson Contreras was told to crowd the plate as he was catching so the Cardinals could get more breaks on breaking balls from umpires. Contreras does as he is told and lo and behold, the hitter for the New York Mets clobbers his arm . Contreras is out for six weeks and had surgery to repair a broken arm. To add insult to injury, Contreras was charged with catcher's interference and the batter awarded first base.

That, coupled with the Cardinals hitting about .036 as a team and losing two of the three to the White Sox and on the verge of being swept by the ever loving New York Mets and its time to do something drastic. This season is probably lost but if the Cardinals don't do something soon, attendance at Busch Stadium will look like such baseball mad places as Oakland, Miami or Kansas City.

Bye Ollie -- go back to the A leagues where you might learn some baseball. Take Molizak with you! PLEASE!!!!!!
 

It's not just an Ollie thing. All catchers are doing this.

Very possibly but I'd argue that when you spend as much as Wisconsin did on infrastructure improvement, site prep, rezoning and job recruitment, inevitably, somebody will find you.

Way to go Microsoft. Here's hoping there's no rug pull!

Hey, look at what's gonna be built on the Foxconn Boondoggle site - a great American company actually building an important American operation that will bring real training and real good-paying jobs to real Americans.

https://www.jsonline.com/story/money/business/2024/05/08/microsoft-biden-to-highlight-major-boost-in-ai-training-in-wisconsin/73588095007/?

Microsoft plans a major expansion of artificial intelligence education and job training programs in southeast Wisconsin, along with a huge increase in its plans for a data center complex now under construction in Mount Pleasant.

Microsoft Corp. President Brad Smith will be joined by President Joe Biden in Racine County on Wednesday to highlight Microsoft's moves, which build upon the company's previous investments in the state.
