Wisconsin Republican Dan Knodl Announces Run for 24th Assembly District

Wisconsin State Senator Dan Knodl (R-Germantown) has announced plans to run for the State Assembly this fall in the 24th Assembly District. "Knodl won a recent special election in the State Senate and is now paired with Senator Duey Stroebel after new redistricting maps were signed in to law last week," a press release from Knodl says. “It has been my honor to serve in the State Senate, but this decision makes sense given the new district boundaries. The 24th Assembly District is my home. I can continue to represent my hometowns of Menomonee Falls and Germantown without having to engage in a costly primary with Senator Stroebel, who is a very respected, conservative member of the Senate,” said Knodl. Knodl, who was first elected to the Assembly in 2008, "said he is proud of his record and accomplishments, but feels there is still much to be done," according to the release. “I am most proud of the work I did in the past few sessions to completely eliminate the personal property tax. That has been a project of mine for years and I worked diligently each session until it was gone,” said Knodl. "Knodl also cited the $22 billion in taxes cut since he took office, as well as his recent legislation surrounding election integrity efforts and his votes to curtail DEI on our college campuses so merit, not skin color, determines success in our public university system, as things he is most proud of during his legislative career," his release says. It says: "In the Senate, Knodl served as the chairman of the Shared Revenue, Elections, and Consumer Protection Committee and has championed many conservative election reforms. He championed the Zuckerbucks bill to make sure nonprofits like Facebook can’t monetarily influence our elections, as well as a bill that makes sure only citizens are allowed to vote." “When I think about what we need going forward as a state, it’s continuity and stability,” said Knodl, “We need to look forward, not backward. And the constituents of this district need a conservative they can trust with a record of actually getting the job done, not just talking about it; a conservative who is respected by his colleagues. I have those qualities and look forward to sharing my vision with the voters of this district.” Senator Knodl "has been an entrepreneur his whole life, starting his first business at 17. Until recently, Dan owned and operated the Reef Point Resort in Hartford for over 30 years. He has four children and six grandchildren," his release says. The 24th Assembly District includes the communities of Germantown, Menomonee Falls, Lannon, and Butler. The primary election will be held on Aug. 13 and the general on Nov. 5. https://www.wisconsinrightnow.com/dan-knodl-assembly/?feed_id=11258&_unique_id=65e12072256a1

John Turscak Stabbed Derek Chauvin 22 Times on Black Friday, Prosecutors Say [READ COMPLAINT]

Image
A federal prisoner was charged on Friday with attempted murder in the brutal prison stabbing of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of killing George Floyd. Prosecutors say John Turscak, 52, stabbed Chauvin 22 times in the law library at the Tucson Federal Correctional Institution in Arizona with an improvised knife. Turscak was charged with attempted murder, assault with the intent to commit murder, assault with a dangerous weapon, and assault resulting in bodily injury. Turscak told correctional officers that he would have killed Chauvin had they not responded so quickly. Officers used pepper spray to subdue Turscak. Turscak would later tell FBI agents that he attacked Chauvin on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, because it ws was symbolic with the Black Lives Matter movement and the “Black Hand” symbol associated with the Mexican mafia gang, the complaint says. Turscak told the agents that he had been thinking about attacking Chauvin f...

UW-Milwaukee Protesters BAN Cops From Campus Lawn Owned by Taxpayers

Image
UW-Milwaukee's pro-Palestinian protesters have erected a sign outside their fenced-in encampment on a prominent campus lawn that declares that police are not allowed on the state taxpayer-owned property. They are now calling it the "Falasteen Lawn," which means Palestine Lawn. "Free Palestine.  No cops allowed," the sign declared on May 6. [caption id="attachment_205459" align="alignnone" width="2048"] The sign at the UW-Milwaukee encampment.[/caption] And yet the inaction from city, state and campus officials continued Monday as the protesters get bolder and finals week approaches (how nice of them to create "focus hours" for student studying in between the press conference and speakers!). First, the protesters started camping on a prominent patch of campus lawn in front of a prominent building. Then, they erected a makeshift wall around it, and placed security-vest-wearing guards at the entrances. Then, they ...

The Coast Guard Academy’s Newest DEI Push

Image
By Michael R. Shevock DEI is a bad idea. It is divisive, racist, and anti-meritocratic. Coleman Hughes , Ayaan Hirsi Ali , Elon Musk , and a host of other first-rate minds have vigorously come out against it.  Yet, our Coast Guard leadership continues to promote it without discussion or debate. For an objective observer, that should be the first clue that something is very, very wrong. Supporters of this ideology are fond of the term ‘cultural competence,’ which they seem to believe is obtainable in a seminar or a classroom, but there are other paths to knowledge. For example, I enjoyed twenty-eight years in federal law enforcement, which, among other things, afforded me familiarity with the inside of a crack-house. Here are are some things I learned first-hand: (1) Underclass black America is indeed suffering unacceptable levels of violence and generational poverty; (2) Malcolm X was absolutely correct when he identified white liberals as an impediment to the progr...
