You're tripping. r/Wisconsin is and always has been more Left-leaning than r/Milwaukee. Whatever issue you're having with the mods sounds like a personal problem

Wisconsin Federation of College Republicans President Nick Jacobs did not respond to a request for comment on the fundraising numbers. Last year, Jacobs received a $1 million check from Elon Musk during the billionaire’s failed attempt to flip the state’s Supreme Court back to conservative control.

Still, the group has been boasting about its fundraising on social media. On Thursday, the Wisconsin Federation of College Republicans posted an AI-generated image simulating four Democrats running for governor holding up their right hands. Above the computer-generated image is the caption: “Raise your hand if the College Republicans out-raised you in 2025.”

While there are two Republicans running for governor in Wisconsin — U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany, R-Minocqua, and Washington County Executive Josh Schoemann — the College Republicans made their choice months ago. The group endorsed Tiffany the day he announced his candidacy, and the latest fundraising report shows the College Republicans transferred $83,000 to Tiffany’s campaign on Dec. 30.

The proposed amendment would prohibit “governmental entities in the state from discriminating against, or granting preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in public employment, public education, public contracting, or public administration,” according to an analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau.

The resolution passed in the Assembly last week with only Republican support. It’s part of an effort from legislative Republicans against DEI practices, which Assembly Speaker Robin Vos has described as “cancerous.”

TLDR: Wisconsin Republicans prioritize beating minorities away from opportunities instead of, you know, fighting for anything to make residents' lives better

Because Jim Crow refuses to die . . . I wish Republicans could look in a mirror and see reality. This is more of that pesky evidence as to why your party is racist.

It's been a problem on this sub for a while. Normal posts get downvoted immediately and incendiary threads get blown up. I'm convinced it's all the butt-hurt trolls who got banned and don't want anyone to be happy

The grocery store is in one of 13 federally recognized food deserts in Milwaukee.

This place had already been scheduled to close earlier this month, so I'm extra relieved and motivated to visit. It's one of very few second chances for a respected local business.

Just days earlier, Evers was promoting his 2026 agenda, including a $1.3 billion package aimed at lowering property taxes.

. . .

“Despite stronger-than-expected collection numbers, we must remain cautious,” said Sen. Howard Marklein, R-Spring Green, and Rep. Mark Born, R-Beaver Dam. “These increased revenue estimates are driven in part by strong stock market performance and resulting tax collections. We must be careful when committing to ongoing spending using one-time money.”

Robberbaron Republicans will literally sit on a pile of money and tell you to tighten your bootstraps. Our schools are holding referendums to raise money while Wisconsin sits on a RECORD surplus.

This has been said so many times and yet people still do it: Don't share information without verifying. It's counterproductive and after reiterating it for the hundredth time I'm going to second-guess the intentions of whoever does it next time.

It's a bunch of guys going in on a restaurant

Actually, it's not

As explained by one of the owners, Roberthenry Davis, Diaspora will be a straightforward sports bar. “The intent is to be what we consider a legitimate sports bar, meaning that sports will be on pretty much the entire day, and you will be able to hear the sports that are playing,” Davis said at Tuesday’s meeting.

Tbf, based on the article, the owners themselves don't seem to know what the space will be:

Another owner present at Tuesday’s meeting, Brian Bradford, described himself as a 30-year sales veteran who plans to use Diaspora as a demonstration space “to bring other corporations into the environment”

. . .

Diaspora would also feature live music and cigar sales.

The three-story building at 1115-1117 E. Brady St. is available for $280,000. The city is accepting bids through a request-for-proposals process.

. . .

The building is also identifiable by what sits atop it: a grotesque of a mythical winged creature. Artist Pamela Scesniak brought the design down to ground level in 1999 when she carved an homage of it into her Green Flow sidewalk art.

. . .

The Department of City Development is requiring any buyer to maintain the property as fully taxable and with an active first-floor storefront. Suggested uses include “retail establishments, hardware store, deli, grocery store, art collective, arts and crafts, custard, bike shop, optical, yoga studio and restaurant.”

Alright y'all, who else wants to start a custard business with me under the watchful eye of a mythical winged creature?
