The only people working hard in D.C.? The demolition crew at the White House. 🏗️

Rep. Derrick Van Orden posted 250+ times in 24-48 hours. Sounds like some constituents aren’t happy with the administration.

Here’s an idea: Instead of creating his own social media echo chamber, maybe Van Orden could talk with his constituents, find out what they need, and then actually work with Democrats to reopen the government.

Wisconsin deserves better. We expect our leaders to get things done, not just rack up social media posts.

We’ll update the appeal filed Monday by Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul to an order by a Waukesha County judge that could force the state elections commission to take on a massive project that could bring chaos to 2026 elections — all to chase after fraud that has never been shown to exist, despite lots of claims by people who know they have better odds of winning elections if more legal voters have to jump through more hoops.

We’ll visit with Rep. Francesca Hong, a candidate for governor, who made a campaign stop in Eau Claire last weekend. And we’ll talk to Steve Boe from a group that promotes the ongoing investments being made to grow wind power, solar power, and jobs throughout rural Wisconsin. And Dan Hagen from WJFW-TV tells us about stories he’s following up north.

The photos may be more symbolic of 2025 than all the rest: Part of the White House exterior being torn down to make room for President Trump’s ballroom, an altar to the new Gilded Age. We’ll talk COURIER’s Cam Stevenson from Capitol Hill about how the demolition crew may be the only people doing actual work at either end of Pennsylvania Avenue. We’ll also visit with Dan Shafer from The Recombobulation Area on the governor’s race.

A bipartisan bill in the Wisconsin State Legislature would let the city install traffic cameras to ticket speeders and red-light runners. Milwaukee’s top brass has begged lawmakers for the exception:

State Sen. Jeff Smith isn’t pulling punches: what happened to Wisconsin’s homeless veterans is “absolutely hogwash.”

Klein Hall in Chippewa County used to offer 48 beds for veterans in crisis. More veterans left behind.

Now, Smith and his allies are working to rebuild what was gutted—because our veterans deserve more than political talking points. They deserve action.

This is what it looks like when budgets reflect values. Or don’t.
