Let's Make America Healthy Again

United States Senator Ron Johnson - March 3, 2025

I had the honor of attending the swearing-in ceremony for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. after being confirmed Secretary of Health and Human Services.

The ceremony was held in the Oval Office, a unique honor. 

I'm looking forward to working with Secretary Kennedy in his commitment to radical transparency and conquering chronic illness. I believe this is a watershed moment for America. 

The Make American Healthy Again movement held a press conference after RFK Jr's swearing-in. Watch my remarks here, but the entire MAHA press conference with Del Bigtree is well worth watching. Truth is about to be revealed.

Words Matter!

Dave Glomp, President SafeDane - Opinion to Four Lakes Voices, March 4, 2025

I, as well as others, am totally embarrassed by our Wisconsin Governor, Tony Evers recent Annual Budget Bill replacing the word “mother” with the words, “inseminated person” and “father” and “man” simply as “person”. Previously, the Biden Administration referred to mothers as “pregnant people” and “birthing people” which was apparently not impersonal, demoralizing, and inhuman enough.

How Wisconsin turned ballot boxes into a bar fight

Ballot drop boxes seem like a straightforward election reform.

The idea is pretty simple. Make it easy to vote. You don’t have to schlep into a county office to return an absentee ballot, just deposit it in a box outside your local city hall or a nearby fire station or school.
