After watching President Trump's latest State of the Union address, I must confess, I haven't had this much fun since the last time Congress tried to agree on lunch. The annual spectacle did not disappoint, replete with standing ovations, strategic eye-rolls, and enough groaning from the Democratic side to warrant a wellness check.

Andrew Weiss of the Weiss Energy Policy Institute partnered with us for a report looking at dire state of Wisconsin's energy infrastructure. According to Andrew's study, Wisconsin faces a potential energy crisis, with new reports projecting a high risk of blackouts by the winter of 2028.
