The rule only apply to you, not the elites who rule you. At least that’s the message conveyed in Wisconsin Governor Tony Ever’s statewide mask mandate. The new mask mandate, aimed at lowering the transmission of COVID-19, applies to everyone in the state, except politicians.
All state facilities or government offices that fall under Wisconsin State Legislature and Wisconsin Supreme Court, are exempt from the order.
In section 4 of the mandate, a clarification reads, “State facilities or offices under the control of the Wisconsin State Legislature or the Wisconsin Supreme Court are exempt from this Order. The Wisconsin State Legislature and the Wisconsin Supreme Court may establish guidelines for face coverings that are consistent with the specific needs of their respective branches of government.”
The order is set to end on September 28th.
Wisconsin’s COVID-19 testing has been nothing short of a complete debacle. According to local Fox affiliate, there’s a 17,000 negative case backlog. The same article cites two different people claiming to have gotten both positive and negative results in the same day.
After successfully taking down members of the judicial and legal community, assisting in the prosecution of more than 300 Catholic priests, Kathleen Kane was incessantly attacked with the intention of destroying her career for daring to do her job. Possessing emails from judges who had engaged in sending discriminatory emails based on race and gender, along with pornographic materials, Kane became Judicial Enemy #1 in Pennsylvania. Vowing she would take down the “good-ol’-boys” network that has turned the legal and judicial system in Pennsylvania into a modern day version of Capone’s Mafia….Kane was eventually imprisoned by one of the same judges she had been exposing. Does anyone besides us see a conflict of interest here??
We will be updating on the progress made in Alaska and also on a couple of Wisconsin cases that we are involved in and any other news that pops up today.
And thank you to all of you who have reached out in support of these shows! Thank you for taking the time to send us your thoughts and support!
The microchips are the size of a grain of rice, and they were embedded into the hands of employees for Three Square Market, a vending company that makes kiosks to dispense food and beverages. It was done supposedly for the purposes of convenience, and employees’ hands can now be read to verify their identity.
Three Square Market Chief Operating Officer Patrick McMullan dismisses any concerns that microchipping his employees is akin to Big Brother. He told detractors to “take your cell phone and throw it away” to defend his invasive practice.
Biohax Sweden produced the microchips, and they have thousands of people implanted with their technology throughout the Europe. They hope to expand their business across the pond, and Three Square Market is happy to help them do so, as a modern dystopia continues to take shape.
The microchips were implanted by a local tattoo artist who pinched the individual’s skin after swabbing the area, and then made a small incision with a syringe before installing the chip.
“The pinch hurt more than the injection,” said McMullan. “It stung for about an hour and half afterwards, but now it’s getting back to normal.”
Since debuting the microchips in 2017, Three Square Market has vastly expanded their plans with the technology, hoping to convince larger firms to adopt microchips.
“We’ve been in touch with NASCAR, with baseball stadiums,” Three Square Market President Todd Westby told KSTP. “We’ve gotten in doors that we would have never gotten in before.”
They are looking into drastically expanding the technology and making it standardized, showing how it can already be used to open doors, buy food items, and turn on computer portals. Westby demonstrated how the microchips can effectively store biometric information as well.
“I scanned my hand and here’s my driver’s license information,” Westby said, holding up his phone to astonished reporters.
They hope to introduce the idea to the masses in the form of bracelets containing microchips, in order to get the masses used to having microchips implanted in their skin down the line.
“The microchip is a big talking point, but it’s not practical right now,” Westby said. “What is practical is RFID bracelets.”
While entrepreneurs, fake news readers, and government bureaucrats may love the idea of microchips, privacy rights advocates and devout Christians may disagree. Not only does the project facilitate ubiquitous spying, but it also may fulfill Biblical prophecy written in the book of revelation.
Revelation 13:16-17 states: “And the second beast required all people small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark— the name of the beast or the number of its name.”
The horrifying vision of the future described by George Orwell in “1984” could be made a permanent phenomenon if microchipping becomes mandatory.
Thank you to Kris Hood and Debbie Valdez from Texas who filled in as guests for us this evening.
6:15 …..BIG WEEK FOR GUARDIANSHIP. KRIS HOOD & Debbie Valdez report from Texas on major changes happening in guardianship. Kris will be kicking off our new information segment in the first hour of this show.
Note: Every effort is being made to force the passage of the Keystone pipeline. This bill WILL NOT give the US any form of energy independence as all crude is slated to be shipped out of the country and into the global market. Upon completion, it will provide only 35-42 permanent jobs. This is a steep price to pay for land devastation, water contamination, spills, leaks and the dumping of toxic waste materials in Wisconsin and Minnesota. This pipeline will also violate private property rights.
As all of this oil is slated for shipment out of the country, it would have been more cost efficient for Keystone to run a line west through Canadian states to its west coast. But guess what! Canadians aren’t having it! Thats why Keystone is trying to invade the US and cause catastrophic damage here.
By the way: Even with the horrendous history of just the last four months involving spills, leaks, water contamination etc., listed in the article below……Keystone will NOT be liable for any spills, cleanup or damage to land and water here in the US.
Alberta, Canada is basically a petro state. Oil and gas production rule everything and it’s happening everywhere in the north of the province. Pipelines criss cross most of Alberta. As a result, leaks of wells, facilities and pipelines are a constant thing all over the province. More
ACTION ALERT: Tell Committe on Energy and Utilities committee: Hold public hearing on AB 345 September 5, 2013
Rep. Thiesfeldt’s smart meter opt out bill, AB 345, has been assigned to the Committee on Energy and Utilities. Please call the members, especially vice-president of the committee Thomas Larson, to ask them to hold a public hearing on the bill. (The committee chair just left, and no replacement has been named yet.)
Rep. Thomas Larson
(608) 266-1194
(888) 534-0067
Reasons to hold the hearing would be:
*Wisconsin citizens deserve the chance to be heard on legislation about the issue of transmitting utility meters, which directly affects their daily lives and homes.
*This Republican-studded committee ought to heed the resolution passed early this year by the party: “…and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED the Public Service Commission (PSC) of Wisconsin must make the usage of smart meters, electrical, gas, and water optional, and provide for an opt out of the smart meter program at no additional cost.”
*Lawmakers dealing with our utility monopolies could show that they truly care about utility customer service and statewide fairness. Opt outs now are offered entirely at the whim of each utility, resulting in uneven treatment of property owners and renters throughout the state.
*WI utilities and regulators had never disclosed to customers the privacy, security or health risks of transmitting utility meters prior to installations, some of which utilities and regulators spoke about amongst themselves. Ramthun_Smart_Meter_JointMtg_Tbilisi_2011_eng_FINAL A public hearing would bring to light what should have been aired before roll-outs of “smart” meters in the state. Freedom of information and full disclosure is what a democracy is about. Shine the light on these meters and the smart grid system. The public deserves to be informed and to weigh in on it.
*Elections matter. This issue is not going away. It will only grow with public awareness of the privacy, security and health risks involved, which the industry had never disclosed to customers before installations. Lawmakers will be held responsible at the polls. Industry money will only go so far once public will is roused.
Note: There is NO federal mandate for Smart Meters. The system is set up through PURPA, and is an OPT-IN system. You must be offered and ACCEPT the meters, or request them. There is no requirement for you to OPT-OUT. Forced installation under threat of harsh punishment or extortion is malfeasance of office. This means that your county commissioners, city councils, and public utility representatives have misused their office to cause you intentional harm under threat and coercion.

__________________________
Dear Mr. Thiesfeldt:
I became aware of your bill – LRB-0644/2 to ensure that Wisconsin residents can opt-out of having a “smart meter” on their property. I would very much like to see everyone in the state have the ability to opt out without risking the power/water/gas company shutting their service down, as it is right now.
I have many friends and contacts in Wisconsin, and we’re wondering what we can do to help. I was also wondering where to see a status of the bill so we can monitor its progress. I’m a little unfamiliar with how that works in Wisconsin.
In my business, the number one complain I hear from my customers is smart meters. Not just from Wisconsin, but from all over North America. Headaches, dizziness, “brain fog,” sleeping problems, trouble concentrating, chronic pain, heart palpitations, and ringing in the ears are some of the most common complaints I hear. Many people had no idea a “smart meter” was placed on their house, and then only after suffering months and months or in some cases years, they found out they had a smart meter and that it was placed on their house the same time the symptoms started.
I’ve had customers who lost family members, and I’ve had customers who didn’t even complain about a digital meter, but while talking to them I could tell they seemed distracted/bothered – not fully attentive/present. They couldn’t focus. This has happened quite a few times.
This is my 6th year in business, and the smart meter complains have been steadily increasing every single year. It greatly saddens me when I hear these stories, and my heart goes out to those suffering. Sometimes they are so ill/debilitated that they feel helpless/powerless and don’t know what to do. As for me, I’d rip that thing off my house immediately. But some people are scared of the utilities or scared of the “authorities” in their area. More
NEWS FLASH: As I was writing this, Rep. Jeremy Thiesfeldt announced a smart meter opt out bill for Wisconsin, LRB 0644/2— Relating to: installation of smart meters at premises of public utility customers and allowing an opt-out. He will talk today on Vicki McKenna’s radio show at 5:06 p.m. about the proposed bill. Please TELL state lawmakers to support this law, which protects individual property and health choices.
Yesterday Audrey Parker’s city shut off her water because she refused to get their new smart water meter due to health and privacy concerns. The City of Baraboo heard her request last fall to opt out of the radiofrequency emitting meter, and has threatened her with various shut off dates since then.
A growing number of people nationwide (and worldwide) are rejecting smart meters. Besides the point that no one should be forced to have a radiation-producing meter against their will in order to get utility service, WI Public Service Commission code actually prohibits shut-offs for sensitive populations. So, likely this “smart” city has made a rather dumb decision legally, not to mention a heartless one.
PSC 113.0304(4) (4) Conditions for disconnection. A utility may disconnect only those households whose gross quarterly incomes are above 250% of the federal income poverty guidelines and where health and safety would not be endangered because of the infirmities of age, developmental or mental disabilities or like infirmities incurred at any age or the frailties associated with being very young, if service were terminated or not restored.
Baraboo should follow the example of Madison Water Utility and the Town of Sheboygan in allowing smart meter opt outs for individuals. The 2005 federal Energy law stated that smart meters should be “offered” not forced upon residents. Just because utilities “can” choose their own equipment does not mean they should trash customer service in the process. The Public Service Commission should make a ruling to allow it in the name of fairness and good customer relations. Last fall, the PSC denied a Madison petition for statewide utility customer “bill of rights” for opt outs.
Non-transmitting analog meters should be a choice for every resident in the state. To deny customers this choice is an abuse of power by these utility monopolies. It is about time Wisconsin had a law to protect utility customers from this bull-headed, heartless abuse.
Community broadband is under attack in Wisconsin. AT&T and other telecom giants are spending millions to secure their dominance at the expense of schools, libraries, and public services. Wisconsin needs your help. More

Several state supreme courts have quietly issued new “rules” that make it illegal (not unlawful) for anyone to help a pro se litigant assemble research or contribute in any way to presenting their case. These courts however, made no such ruling regarding the use of law clerks and paralegals who routinely are used by BAR members to do the actual work required to put a case together.
_____________________________________________
There are few people these day still having any illusions about the corruption in our judicial system. As we have seen and heard, our courts are the last place to find justice or to see the rule of law applied. Our courts, once the last line of defense in legal matters, have become nothing more than government sanctioned racketeering. Reports of judicial misconduct in virtually every court system in the nation, is not only on the rise, it is being condoned by the silence of the Department of Justice, congress and state governments. Even SCOTUS decided that the corruption of the lower courts was not worthy of their superior and divine attention due in part to the high level of corruption in its own court.
The term “closed shop” is used to signify an establishment, trade or skill which employs only members of the union. Our courts are closed union shops which are now actively writing new rules (lawmaking) to prevent anyone other than BAR union members from accessing the courts. We are now being told that it is accepted practice for judges to create their own laws, in total disregard for the constitution or individual rights and protections and with total disregard for established and accepted law. If this is in fact the case…..why can’t we create our own common courts that bypass these union shop courts? After all, the current judicial system no longer adheres to the law and instead operates as independent corporate contractors relying on code and statute or newly created laws they themselves create. I see no reason why we should have to continue to pay private contractors to violate our rights. More
Paul Griepentrog ________________________________________________
Despite not being a Republican I am often invited to the functions, like the Price County Presidents Day Dinner. I enjoy the opportunity to converse with elected officials, but the union reich was present with their protesters and attempted to violate my right to be secure in my person by taking my picture, my wife held her hand over the camera and the lady stated she had a right to take pictures, undoubtedly to use for future retaliation. Four police officers were present to protect meeting attendees.
I was disappointed that my state representative, Mary Williams, was told not to appear because of security issues regarding threats to her, her daughter, a teacher, and granddaughter in grade school. The union storm troopers even protested at the restaurant owned by Mary and her husband Al, in Medford WI.
My state senator Pam Galloway was in attendance and indicated she was going to initiate an investigation regarding the doctor at the capitol writing medical excuses for teachers missing school on national television, in conjunction with the Department of Justice and State Licensing Board. Pam had to leave early under police escort for her protection.
Keynote speaker was the congress member for this district, Sean Duffy having defeated Dave Obey in the fall election. He proceeded to go into self praising diatribe about his votes regarding budget cuts. I questioned him regarding why the USDA requested 14.2 million for the Animal Traceability Program which the USDA had rolled NAIS program into on the Federal Register by sleight of hand and that it had been defunded by the previous congress and ruled by the judiciary as having no benefit for animal disease control. He went blank and responded that it was good constituents brought these issues to his attention. DUH
The attendance was bigger than ever with many non members present from even two counties away to show support for Governor Walker’s proposal despite the attempt by protesters to park all the stalls full.
In my opinion the justification that union members are only doing what they have to doesn’t hold water, when they threaten legislators and their families they have gone too far. There is no reason to tolerate this type of behavior or allow these people to continue, their arrogant kind simply need to go. No foreign terrorist group would be tolerated if conducting this type of activity.

Having returned home early Thursday afternoon from her job down state, due to my illness, my wife arrived at the Emergency Room of the Howard Young Hospital. The attendant at the desk called regarding my status and told my wife “I’m sorry; your husband is no longer with us.” However reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated.
We will be forced to pay for the treatment received out of our own pockets as we are without insurance. A situation facilitated by increasing property taxes as a direct result of teacher retirement. It seems as if the Park Falls school district failed to provide the necessary funds back in the eighties and now finds itself with a million dollar debt that it will be writing its own bond for. When questioned as to the individuals responsible, we were informed that doesn’t matter. This cover up was facilitated in part by none other than County Clerk Jean Gotwald serving in her capacity on the Chequamegon School District. We were told the state employees union carried the debt for the failed payments and now we owe them principal and interest. More
“A clear cut act of coercion, being forced to waive their rights just to market milk. “
____________________________________________
Yup! DATCP won again! As Mark and Jane Brothen pled no contest to charges of failure to register a premises.
Unable to afford or procure competent counsel and lacking the ability to represent themselves left them with little choice, after all the state run education system falls grievously short of providing scholars of the necessary information to obtain due process of law, and deliberately so.
Jubilant with their boot heel victory over another family farm Donna Gilson, spokesperson for DATCP, rushed to press somewhat prematurely as her announcement was three days prior to the entry in the court record. An act in clear violation of Wisconsin Statutes §943.201 except for one thing; Mark and Jane are licensed dairy producers and as part of the application for that license were forced to wave their privacy rights and allow DATCP to do whatever it wants with their information.
Even when producers try and make a reservation of rights the heavy handed Cheryl Daniels wrote:
“If a person wants to be a dairy producer, they must submit the application as written. If they want a license, they need to follow our rules. Premises is a term under our statute. Have them resubmit the application or tell them it will be denied.”
A clear cut act of coercion, being forced to waive their rights just to market milk. More
While Wisconsin DATCP (Department of Trade and Consumer Protection) denies any permits have been issued or obtained, or permits for exemptions granted from either Statute 93.35 nor ATCP 54.06; the skies in Wisconsin are covered in chemtrails.
A reasonable person would expect that an agency charged with consumer protection would be enforcing these statutes. DATCP denies that an records exists concerning this activity, and yet the chemtrails are clearly visable for miles.
Those doing the spraying are doing so “ultra vires” meaning, without authority, and acting above the law. Apparently, DATCP is facilitating this.
That’s what Dr. McGraw has determined I am, despite DATCP’s statements and records showing they registered my location and lack any reason for the visits or denial of my open records request. Nice to know he is judge and jury all in one, must save a lot of time and expense for the state. More

Wisconsin Reports
Pretext
As it was my intent to deliver three articles in sequence I found my life had again been invaded Thursday morning by an act of vandalism, a person or persons unknown to me entered my barn (burglary) released my animals (a felony in Wisconsin) and opened the doors to the grain storage areas allowing the animals to engorge themselves with grain. This occurrence coincided with other acts of aggression to individuals opposed to the comprehensive land use plan. There were three snowmobiles operating unlawfully on the road that night, in the past anyone complaining about such activity has been subject to acts of aggression, as in one case where the complainant had a snowmobiler drive into his driveway and discharge a firearm at his house. More
Yesterday I finally received a response to my open records request to the Department of Ag Trade and Consumer Protection for “All licenses, permits, records, reports and notices of exempt operations pursuant to State statute § 93.35 and ATCP 54.06 regarding weather modification.”
The response from Brian D. Kuhn was “We have no records of anyone ever having applied for a license or permit related to weather modification, nor have we any notices of exempt operations pursuant to statute §93.35 and ATCP 54.06.” Interesting that the response took over a month before I received it, which raises questions the greater concern is that despite the extensive private and governmental record requirements impose by statute none exist in the history of the statute. With the advent of the documentary “What in the World are They Spraying” a reasonable person would expect that an agency charged with consumer protection would be enforcing these statutes.
DATCP’s track record for this type of protection is woefully inadequate, despite thousands of complaints only few are investigated and none are prosecuted. Unless the complaint is generated by DATCP officials in order to obtain warrants to raid farms. An act itself in violation of statute as all complaints must issue from a consumer inclusively.
But living up to the letter of the law isn’t DATCP’s forte, in fact in yet another open records request it came to light that Randy Romanski, the recently appointed Secretary is operating under color of office, having never taken his oath of office and recording said oath with the Secretary of State.
§ 17.03 Vacancies, how caused. Except as otherwise provided, a public office is vacant when:
(7) A person elected or appointed or reelected or reappointed to any office neglects or refuses to take and file the official oath or to execute or renew the official bond if required, or to file the oath or bond as prescribed by law.
Don’t get your hopes up, seems as though the black robe society has ruled that because the legislature provided no penalty provisions in the statute that anyone failing to file an oath or bond can continue in that position until successfully challenged and convicted in a court, and that all acts done in this dejure/defacto status are valid. . How about plugging in a class I felony for failure to perform a ministerial duty?
Interesting note is that there were no penalty provisions in the Premises Registration statute either.
When DATCP can’t get what it wants directly they send in USDA APHIS to conduct night raids and interrogations of farmers, coercing farmers into signing affidavits, without counsel present, agreeing to answer questions regarding their farming activities. Interesting coincidence that the raids initiated on the same day the USDA announced its appointments to citizens group for animal identification. A reward for services rendered no doubt.
This is the first of a three part series delving into the goings on here in wisconSIN. Next will be the states persecution of yours truly and the final segment as to the proposed remedy by Governor elect Walker.
This week’s PPJ Gazette Jackass award goes to Mr. McGraw, head of Wisconsin’s Department of agriculture, trade, and consumer protection, or DATCP.
Mr. McGraw wants the residents of wisconsin to register any location in which livestock is kept.
Mr. McGraw has no rational reason for this; he just somehow got into the position of head of the department and the cooperative funding (bribery) from the USDA just kept rolling in the door! What’s a guy to do?
“Livestock” includes cattle and other bovine animals, swine, poultry, sheep, goats, horses and other equine animals, farm-raised deer and other cervids, gamebirds including pheasants, quail, wild turkeys, migrating waterfowl, pigeons, and exotic birds raised in captivity, bison, llamas and other camelids, ratites such as emus and ostriches, and fish.
Evidently, this is supposed to ensure that grandma’s pet goldfish doesn’t run amuck and unleash a dreaded disease on the state of Wisconsin. And, if a gaggle of migrating geese takes a dip in your pond before heading south for the winter, be prepared for a knock on the door by the Wisconsin DATCP enforcement division.
Yes, Mr. Mcgraw, for incredibly invasive policies and police-state tactics, you deserve this week’s PPJ Gazette Jackass award!
While visiting the Wild Berry Market in Minoqua WI today, I noticed a large amount of produce marked locally grown/sustainable. Curious about the source, I questioned Megan Rudisill, an owner, where the product came from. She responded Antigo, 70 miles away. I said that didn’t qualify as local or sustainable because the product was of no economic benefit to the community. More
While Wisconsin politicians turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to the police state actions being carried out by the rogue Department of Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) agents for DATCP kick the efforts to eradicate family and independent farmers into high gear.
In an effort to force compliance to the Premises ID program, designed to convey title of property through the use of deception and coercion, to the federal government, agents arrived this morning on the private property of Paul Griepentrog, without warrant or complaint. The agent for DATCP handed Paul several papers most of which were not applicable under the law, and several of which were in direct violation of Supreme Court rulings.
DATCP, a rogue agency which has been challenged multiple times for its harassment of Wisconsin farmers and most especially dairy farmers, interfering in the lawful conduct of business, seizing and destroying personal property without cause or authority to do so, have just met their match.
A message from Paul Griepentrog:
Folks,
It has come to my attention that DATCP has ramped up enforcement of premises registration. I received a visit from Randy Niederkorn this morning accompanied by a sheriff’s deputy, informing me that I would have to register in ten days or face prosecution. I also received a call from Mark Brothen of Viroqua yesterday morning that he had received summons and complaint for failing to register.
In Mark’s case DATCP refused to grant an administrative hearing twice. DATCP is entering private property without warrant and complaint as required in the 1967 Supreme Court decision Camara v. Municipal Court were it states “Entry onto property by Public officials unconstitutional without warrant and complaint.”
The harassment of the states farmers by DATCP is in clear defiance of legislative intent as exemptions were written into statute however Dr. Ehlenfeldt refused to grant them. There are others who have been notified of prosecution however have requested I not use their names.
I personally cannot go against the Word of my God and will endure all, even death, rather than comply.

In response to the refusal of so many agricultural land owners to enter into the contract with state agencies that had taken bribe money euphemistically referred to as “co-operative funding” from the USDA, the state agencies began a campaign of extortion and coercion against agricultural land owners, withholding licensing, conducting swat team raids and destroying family businesses and lives.
__________________________________
The National Animal Identification System (NAIS) proposed by the USDA a few years back, resulted in a bitterly fought battle between government and livestock producers across the country. Most saw the hidden agenda for this theft of agricultural land and the attempts to also create “national herds”; depriving livestock owners of their property and relegating them to the status of “stakeholders”; meaning they owned nothing and only had an interest in, the livestock in question. USDA, claiming the system was needed if they were to be able to quickly “trace back” the source of contaminated animal products versus, livestock producers who knew there was already a more than adequate system in place across the country to do this very thing; one that had proven time again to be more than adequate. It was this knowledge that an efficient system was already in place that tipped off the producers, and even those of us who aren’t producers, that something else was afoot. Whatever that something was, we all knew that some other issue was at stake and there were those who were waiting in the wings to profit from it.
Now, don’t get to thinking NAIS went away, because it didn’t. As we reported last spring:
“A March 2, 2010 Agriculture Committee hearing televised live on CSPAN gives a clear picture of what’s ahead for domestic farmers, ranchers and herders in the US.. Deputy Secretary Kathleen A. Merrigan cheerfully announced the “new age of enforcement” citing the intent to increase “risk assessment and better surveillance”. In other words……based on only their assumption there might be a problem but with no real cause or evidence, the USDA in cooperation with bought and paid for state agriculture departments that took bribe money to implement the USDA business plans for creating a police state, USDA is stepping up its assault on domestic farming and ranching.” More
In the upcoming election in the 87th district there are two candidates, Mary Williams, the Republican incumbent and Democrat, Dana Schultz. As a rural district dependent on agriculture and tourism the economic situation is at the forefront of the issues in this election.
Mary Williams has a track record of supporting agriculture, both large and small. The economic stimulus bill she sponsored for rural areas was line itemed vetoed by Governor Doyle and ended up being used in the suburbs. Mary voted for the raw milk bill despite dairy industry claims that everyone would drop dead from consuming raw milk, having been raised on raw milk, Mary knew better.
She co-sponsored the voluntary premises registration bill with the hope to end prosecution of Wisconsin producers; producers who were resistant because of religious or constitutional reasons.
A future proposal of a legislative committee regarding fraud and abuse of government programs was spurred by fraudulent activity surrounding alleged day care centers in and around Milwaukee where recipients receiving grants had not even cared for children at all, one of which was actually a house of ill repute.

A note from Paul Griepentrog: PPJ Reporter for Wisconsin
In an attempt to circumvent statutory requirements the town and country officials are seeking to empower Fifield’s comp plan and establish comprehensive planning county wide. Appellate court decision has rendered Town plans to be advisory, and the statutory requirement SS § 60.61(2) & (3), for a county to be void of zoning in order to enable Township zoning has left the power mongers no choice but to do an end run around the law. With the county Zoning committee, chaired by Jim Robb having held several closed meetings without announcing contents as required in SS § 19.85 , we can only speculate as to what these individuals were discussing. The letter to the editor attached below describes the actions taken by local zoning boards and elected country supervisors.
WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE A BIG MESS IN PRICE COUNTY GOVERNMENT
Submitted by: Jackie Severt, A lifelong Fifield resident
Price County citizens should be aware, outraged, and frightened by what is going on in local zoning. The elected county supervisors on the zoning committee are supposed to be working for the good of the people; but are they?
The zoning administrator is a county employee who is also supposed to be working for the good of the people; but is he? I bet if you attended any of the monthly public meetings of the Zoning Committee you would be answering “NO” to these questions. More
The monster known as Smart Growth, Agenda 21, has reared its ugly head here on the banks of Byhre Creek; the Town of Fifield has decided to go ahead with comprehensive planning.
Having disbanded a few years back due to lack of interest on the part of Price County and surrounding municipalities and the subsequent reduction in the amount of grant monies that would have been received, the planning committee was revived. Despite a statement made by Doug Noetzel, town chairman, regarding past committee members being requested to serve; again certain individuals were ominously omitted despite requests to again serve.
Back in July 2009 the board approved an ordinance enabling the Comprehensive Planning Commission. This ordinance among other things, stated the commission would abide by open meetings laws and is certainly subject to existing statutes; or are they?
In the property tax notices that went out in December of 2009 there was a slip of paper indicating that a hearing would be held on the plan January 21st 2010, and that the plan would be available at the town hall and the Park Falls public library. State statute § 66.1001 regulates the actions necessary for a municipality, if the municipality enters into land use planning, two of which are to foster public participation and respond to concerns of citizens. This statute requires 30 day posting of the plan to various state agencies, surrounding municipalities and the aforementioned locations. The responsibility to see this is done lies with commission chair Leona DeRemer, who is also a town board supervisor. However with less than two weeks before the January 21st hearing, no copies of the plan were available. More
Will someone please shut off the lights and close the door on Wisconsin? If their legislators aren’t trying to figure out ways to harass and torment the agricultural sector, Herb Kohl keeps them busy trying to find ways to sell the whole state off to corporations. Now comes this:
Rep. Tammy Baldwin, believes that children should declare their sexual orientation if they access public education, or any of the vaccination programs or other activites provided by “public education”. All of those programs on vaccines alone are enough to pull your kids out of public schools. It is no one’s business what the sexual orientation of another person is, was or might be. It is surely none of the school’s business. School is for education, not for singling out those who might be different. Maybe if we concentrated on actually educating the children rather than poking our government noses into something we have no business in, we might get kids graduating who could actually make change for a dollar and read beyond a 5th grade level!

While listening to WPR’s broadcast debate between the candidates for the 87th district I couldn’t help but notice that jobs and the economy were the high point of debate. Interestingly enough, I’ve tried to contact both Mary Williams (incumbent) and Dana Schultz for interviews regarding issues concerning non corporate farms; they haven’t had time to respond. Or is it: they don’t want to face the music?
Could it be that the legislature itself has failed to recognize that their onerous lawmaking and subsequent rulemaking by administrative agencies has been stifling our economy?
The legislature has declared the owning of property, in the form of livestock and land, to be a crime. More

The pressure is really on to ram S.510 Fake Food Safety through the Senate. Democrats know they will most likely lose at least the House in the midterm, but I believe even they suspect they will lose the Senate too. Their corporate donors and investors want this bill passed. They want an end to all competition from family and independent producers and complete control of the US food production and supply and too many politicians on both sides of the fictional isle owe too many of these big sponsors. They are going to sell us out while railing about how we can’t fix the system unless we pass this bill handing agriculture over to corporations and agreements meant to destroy the last vestige of our economy. Claiming that the bill is supported by industry (red flag!!), he also claims consumer groups support the bill. And some do. But Senator Durbin never mentioned the massive outrage and backlash by the public in general over this obvious corporate coup’ being perpetrated by the District of Criminals.
As a C-Span junkie I can tell you I have seen copious amounts of political manure spread just as thick as possible during hearings and what is supposed to pass for debates, but today in the Senate, I believe Senator Durbin topped the all time high “BS” mark for this particular pile of political manure.
I could not believe this Senator actually stood on the floor of the Senate and bemoaned the suffering and deaths of American people; people who were sick and dying right at this moment! As a result of S.510 not being passed. Unfortunate for the Senator was the fact that not one of those he alluded to would have been saved even had S 510 been passed years ago, as this bill does nothing to repair the damage done to the US food supply by the industrialization and centralization of food production and the continual contamination brought into the country hidden in uninspected imports.
For some reason, the Senator believes that harassing family and independent producers by making it impossible for them to remain in business due to mountainous paperwork, redundant and unnecessary regulations, rules and faked “science” while under threats of imprisonment, warrantless search and seizure, a prohibition on judicial review, a complete abrogation of rights, will fix the food system. He also very carefully avoided any mention of Codex Alimentarius written into the bill, or that little note at the very end saying that the bill could not obstruct any government agreement like CAFTA, NAFTA, GATT and most especially not the WTO.
Add into this his belief that the converting of FDA and USDA into the national food police who don’t even have to have any evidence of wrong doing or of food contamination issues and who would not be bound by any provision of the Constitution or the rights of the people will somehow magically cure the problem of industrialized corporate farming and ranching that is causing illness, disease and massive health problems across the country.

If you want a glimpse of what is ahead for you if S.510 passes, here it is.
These are Wisconsin predators, employed by DATCP to act under the color of law and against the people. Earning from 65,000 thousand a year to as much as 105,000 per year, the goons in this video are set loose to harrass and terrorize selected Wisconsin dairy farmers who sell fresh raw milk.
Unlawfully, and without a valid warrant, or any oaths of affirmation, private property was tresspassed, stolen, destroyed and otherwise rendered useless by the goons who make their living preying on the public while wearing a government badge and collecting a huge paycheck.
This attempt to terrorize and coerce this family into compliance was facilitated by the local sheriff who seemed very pleased with violating the rights of these private citizens.
By the way, S. 510 is very clear that dairy farms will be be a target of section 420 (e)

“He presented the various disease trace back situations that had occurred in WI in the past conveniently omitting the pseudo rabies outbreak that involved the Emanuel Miller case.”
The latest USDA dog and pony show for implementing NAIS.
On August 18th in Madison WI the USDA presented its latest attempt to herd the producer masses down the squeeze chute to submission. Although a show of hands revealed that less than 30% of attendees were in fact producers the audience other than USDA officials was rounded out by DATCP officials, tag company representatives, private vets, UW extension personnel, livestock market, and company reps.
State and Federal personnel gave their individual spiels, WI state veterinarian Dr. Ehlenfeldt spoke about how the testimony he had given to the state legislature regarding how Wisconsin was going to lead the train in the traceability program and now it appears there is no train. He presented the various disease trace back situations that had occurred in WI in the past conveniently omitting the pseudo rabies outbreak that involved the Emanuel Miller case. Not surprising from a man who testified under oath in a Marquette Co. court room that there was no such thing as stray voltage at the outset of his career; a clear case of selective memory that has endured for some time.
Gary Tauchen, a state legislator spoke regarding how the latest traceability was needed to allow Wisconsin international access; as a long term band leader for Farm Bureau policy it was no surprise to find him playing the Codex tune. More
A seven-year scheme, backed by the New Zealand government, and supported by industry, will invest around NZ $170m in training and research, helping to “drive change in the dairy industry”. More
Michael & Patricia Schneider file a legal response to the violation of property rights filed against them for refusing to register for premises ID inWisconsin; a voluntary law.
The document below is the recorded response of the Schneiders’ to the attempts by DATCP to force them, using coercion and threat, to register their land, thereby forfeiting rightful ownership and control to the DATCP.
Dr. Paul McGraw has responded to the Schneiders’ claiming that “DATCP has no obligation to respond to the substance of the communication.” Dr. McGraw is apparently unaware of his fiduciary duty to respond. It is possible that he needs to seek legal council.
For those who have been raided without warrant or cause, by state agricultural agents operating under color of law, this is the first step in the process to reaffirm your rights. More
