Respect for our Elected Officials, what is happening in the Republican Party!

A great conversation with a friend, a county chairman, and a pretty smart guy, at least that it is my opinion!  We talk about what is going on with the party and how it can seem dysfunctional, and what we can do to get through this, how do we help our elected officials to see they have support out here! 
Thank you to all our elected officials, you are appreciated more than you know!  Thanks to my friend John for being so candid and sharing openly, we both care....I hope you will listen and share!

Republican Party of Wisconsin Convention, the Good, the Bad, the Ugly, mostly Good this year!

Kudos to my friend John Righeimer, Chairman of Sawyer County Republican Party, recently John was quoted on Fox News Digital talking candidates for President 2024.  John has also been a guest on the Meg Ellefson Radio show, WSAU, out of Wausau. John has done a great job helping build a coalition across the northern part of Wisconsin, the 7th Congressional District, home of Congressman Tom Tiffany, and working with many to help Republican candidates win in areas they have not for years!  We talk about how the State Convention went, we share that we were both impressed by Speaker Robin Vos, and that Brian Schimming, RPW State Chairman did a fantastic job, as well as Congressman VanOrden; all in all it was a positive convention and we are on our way to 2024!

Reasons to VOTE for School Board Candidates in WRPS District!

This eposide is not my normal, it is about the WRPS District, why we need a new direction for School Board Candidates. I talk about issues in this district, accountability and responsibility that the Superintendent and School Board should accept and work with everyone, the community, parents, teachers, students and anyone else that wants to help and make change.  The 5th highest paid Superintendent in the State and we are failing, we need leadership, VOTE Mike Derrie and Chris Inda for School Board!
