West Allis, Wisconsin
West Allis is a city in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, United States. A suburb of Milwaukee, it is part of the Milwaukee metropolitan area. The population was 60,411 at the 2010 census.
The name West Allis derives from Edward P. Allis] whose Edward P. Allis Company was a large Milwaukee-area manufacturing firm of the late 19th century. In 1901 the Allis company became Allis-Chalmers, and in 1902 it built a large new manufacturing plant west of its existing plant. The locale in which the new plant was built was at the time called North Greenfield, and prior to the 1880s had been called Honey Creek. With the building of the western Allis plant, the area was incorporated as the Village of West Allis, and it became the City of West Allis in 1906. Allis-Chalmers was later bought by Caterpillar.
The Wisconsin State Fair Park, which includes the Milwaukee Mile and is the site of the annual Wisconsin State Fair, is located in West Allis.

From the article:
“Plus there’s her bundle of grandchildren — now up to eight, with last week’s addition of Theodore, son of Ivanka and her husband, Jared Kushner. The grandchildren call her “Ivana-ma or glam-ma,” says Ivana, who plans to attend Theodore’s bris today but says she doesn’t know whether or not Donald will make it.”
Maybe Mr. T not campaigning and is in NYC today for little Theodore’s bris and then will be in WI this evening for the town hall with Greta.
Had not realized she had been married before Donald. How many times has she been married?
She was? I didn’t pick that up, in the linked article.
I liked the article, btw.
Great background/history of DJT and his kids, etc.
Praying so!
Wow! Happy Spring! :-)
Love that poll!
