"Trying to be cleverly vague" is how Secretary of State Doug LaFollette describes Republican secretary of state candidate Amy Loudenbeck in the Sept. 1 article in the Wisconsin State Journal, "Loudenbeck won't commit to role."

Former President Donald Trump's supporters appear to be huge hypocrites. They are up in arms about President Joe Biden forgiving $20,000 in college debt for Pell Grant recipients. Most Pell Grant recipients are poor people who attempted to get a college degree to improve their lives but ended up with huge debts.
