With the red trickle behind us and the 2024 general election less than two years away, Republican voters will be faced with three options, like it, or not. The option a majority of GOP voters choose will be pivotal in both congressional elections and the election of the next president of the United States, as well. Those options are: Continue to focus on election day only, which historically determined the outcome of all elections. Continue to whine about “massive fraud” and “stolen” elections as the reason your candidate(s) lost. Realize that election day has given way to election season, and...

Another day, another fake Indian. This time the “pretendian” who spokeum with a forked tongue is a person called Katie LeClaire, who has been claiming Indian blood from multiple tribes for at least five years. Alas and alack, a real Indian did some research and learned that she’s as fake as Indian beads made in Japan. A twist: LeClaire masqueraded as a “two-spirit.” That’s Indian lingo for someone who is “non-binary,” which in turn is leftist code for a mentally ill individual who claims he, or she, doesn’t have a “gender,” meaning sex. Yet the story isn’t just one about...

Early in 2020, an Indigenous artist urged the owners of a new music venue in town to change its name. It was called The Winnebago, after the street on which it stands. Many Indigenous people and allies let the owners know that wasn’t the best name for a white-owned music venue. One of them was nibiiwakamigkwe, also known as Kay LeClaire, a founding member and co-owner of the queer Indigenous artists’ collective giige, and budding leader of Madison’s Indigenous arts community. It took several months, but the venue eventually relented and rebranded as The Burr Oak. “I’m glad the owners...

Many Americans are facing brutal cold this Christmas Eve. Freezing temperatures are plunging into Florida and Texas. Single-digit lows in the Plains and Great Lakes, and blizzard conditions are wrecking travel plans, while the same “bomb cyclone” is driving coastal flooding in the Northeast.

Weird weather and wild extremes have been the calling cards of a changing climate, and it’s almost reflexive to question how much influence the warming world has in this last angry burst of 2022. Recent advances in the science of weather attribution can offer quick insight — and believe...

The owner of an exotic animal breeding business in Florida has been sentenced to five years' probation for illegally selling a capuchin monkey to singer Chris Brown. A federal indictment doesn't name Brown, only identifying the buyer as a celebrity in California, but key details match an Associated Press report that wildlife agents seized the singer's pet monkey after serving a search warrant on his Los Angeles home in early January 2018. Brown also was identified in court Wednesday at the sentencing hearing in Florida for the monkey breeder, Jimmy Hammonds. Wildlife agents moved in after Brown shared a picture...
