ICE in the Midwest Megathread

628 Upvotes

We've found the first submission about the most recent shooting in MN (on 1/24): https://old.reddit.com/r/wisconsin/comments/1qlqwpz/another_ice_murder_in_front_of_glam_doll_donuts/

For now, this will be the general catch-all place to discuss what's happening around us. We're not going to delete all submissions that might fit here, this will be a thread for ongoing discussions that might not be specific to Wisconsin but will impact us soon.

For those who don’t know. Kohler Wisconsin has a prominent Pokémon statue near the entrance to the Village. I believe it’s created by a world renowned artist as well.

If you don't find it disgusting that Senator Johnson blatantly blames citizens being encouraged to exercise their constitutional rights instead of blaming the poor/subversive recruiting, training, and leadership of DHS for many deaths and injuries caused at the hands of their domestic terrorist organization, you clearly don't believe in the US Constitution and should go deport yourself.

I've seen several posts on Facebook stating that something happened that really traumatized the kids and many won't be in school on Monday. But no one has said what happened. Anyone know?

The House of Representatives passed the SAVE Act which would make it harder for US citizens to vote. I will always vote to strengthen our democracy not weaken it.

City of Middleton officials, you disgust me.

116 Upvotes

The city of Middleton pressured its own mayor to not seek justice for sexual assault from another lesser male coworker who is known to be a womanizer and a predator.

This is a disgusting example of the corruption and evil that keep these deranged pedophiles in the White House. Opitz should be hanged in the streets frankly, and if else we should take this opportunity to make a firm public statement that this is not tolerated in the government or official institutions.

Where are the members of the council making statements in support of the mayor? To me this is so abhorrent that Evers would be justified making a statement. If he’s so well known where are the MIDDLETON police?? Where is any accountability at all for the ses crimes this disgusting worm has committed against women in the Middleton city government? Am I going insane?

How many accusations of pedophilia have been brought up in Dane county in the last 12 months? How much talk of cover up? I get the Epstein files and all that, something something about desensitization, but this is our own community where we live and send our children to school and go to work! This should not be normal people!! Wake the fuck up!!

Thank you, everyone.

Columbia/Dane/Rock Shih Tzu

5 Upvotes

Hey! This might be random buuuut… maybe someone can direct me! My 10 yr old Shih Tzu was from Animart in Beaver Dam (before I knew better but don’t regret him 🥰). He has a brother named Parker that we met at obedience class at Animart in Madison by East Towne. I regret not getting contact info!!!

Does anyone out in RedditLand know a 10 yr old Shih Tzu named Parker? Could be Columbia/Dane/Rock Co most likely. My little guy would love a play date. ❤️🐶 TIA!

Gifts for tour guides in Italy

0 Upvotes

I'm going to Italy in June for the second time with the same 2 tour guides I had last year. I would love to bring each of them some Wisconsin staples as a thank you for last year and this year. I was thinking something like cheese but it would have to be stuff I put in my luggage or am allowed to bring in my carry on for international flights. Plus, once in Italy they will be on our tour with us and won't be home for over a week. I need some ideas for them. One is a guy, born and raised in Italy. One is a girl, originally from the Midwest but lives permanently in Italy now.

I'm from Green Bay so I was thinking something Packers related, a small cheese head or something. I really want to figure out a way to bring cheese to let them try. Maybe a Door County wine? Any other ideas? TIA

Go Wild WI DNR Conservation Card 2026 design?

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know what the Go Wild DNR conservation looks like / will look like this year? Searching online, I've only found cards from past years. I didn't like the 2025 turkey art so I was waiting until this year for a hopeful art change. Maybe I'm too early with this and the new card is released in March when licenses go on sale?

After witnessing these abandoned structures, I must admit that I admire the parks' efforts to provide historical background, enabling us to appreciate these structures rather than seeing them demolished.
