The MacIver Report: Wisconsin This WeekMacIver News Minute - Streetcar TroubleSean Ryan of the Milwaukee Business Journal is reporting that Mayor Barrett’s streetcar is in trouble.
Ridership is down 60% this year compared to last, no surprise really because of COVID-19 and the decision by local politicians to shutdown the economy.
The temporary federal grant used to get the streetcar up and running is done and the Mayor is planning to use almost $3 million from the city’s parking ticket and meter fund to fill the hole.
Problem is the parking fund is in the red from - you guess it, Covid 19 and the shutdown.
Which just means that it is l...2020-10-1901 min

The MacIver Report: Wisconsin This WeekMacIver News Minute: Gov. Evers' Local Roads Bait-and-SwitchDuring budget deliberations, Gov. Tony Evers urged Republicans in the Legislature to "fix the damn roads," as the governor's salty slogan went. The GOP obliged, adding tens of millions in assistance for local road repair projects. But last week, DOT Secretary Craig Thompson said the funding would go toward a competitive grant program, which could go toward Milwaukee's boondoggle trolley.2019-07-2301 min
The MacIver Report: Wisconsin This WeekMacIver News Minute: UW's Lucrative Relationship With Opioid Maker Purdue PharmaWhen announcing a lawsuit against painkiller maker Purdue Pharma, Dane Co. executive Joe Parisi spoke of the trail of destruction the opioid crisis has left in its wake. But what he failed to mention was the cozy relationship the county's largest employer, UW-Madison, had with Purdue during the rise of the crisis. That includes $1.6 million in grant funding - but critics say the UW's pain group conducted research advocacy, essentially serving as marketers rather than scientists.2019-02-1301 min
The MacIver Report: Wisconsin This WeekMacIver News Minute: A Lawyer For Me, But Not For TheeDemocrats seem to have selective amnesia when it comes to a key legal battle Tony Evers won just a few months ago. While wailing about the state Legislature's move to grant itself the right to legal representation outside of the state Attorney General's office, they ignore that the state Supreme Court just a few months ago said the Department of Public Instruction was entitled to just that - its own lawyer - when it felt outgoing AG Brad Schimel wouldn't adequately represent it in court.2018-12-1401 min
Scottish ClansEpisode 5 The Norse and NormansIn all our discussion of Gaels, Britons, Angles, and Picts, let's not leave out the Norse and Normans, who founded many Scottish kindreds. Remember that the Normans were originally Scandinavians who were invited by the king of France to settle in northern France (modern Normandy) to serve as buffers against further Viking attacks. They integrated into French society, married local girls, and adopted the language.
Some clans that have Norse origins are MacAskill, MacAulay, McCorquodale, McCotter, MacIver, McKittrick, Gunn, and MacLeod. Let's not leave out a group of kindreds that don't necessarily have a Norse name but do, in fact, descend...2018-09-0725 min
