Last week Vice President Kamala Harris said the Biden administration would stand behind state attorneys general like Wisconsin AG Josh Kaul who eschew the law and their oaths of office in the name of progressive values.  

Addressing the Democratic Attorneys General Association in Milwaukee, Harris praised Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul and his colleagues for their pledges to defy abortion bans in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling overturning the constitutionally flawed Roe v. Wade. Liberal Kaul has said he will not uphold a Wisconsin law prohibiting abortions and has advised local district attorneys to do the same.

Gov. Tony Evers’ dysfunctional Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) hasn’t merely been slow in processing the licenses of untold professionals in Wisconsin. The agency has been slow in answering the Legislature’s questions about the state’s license crisis. 

“They won’t answer questions, and when they do they provide us with only half of the answers,” state Rep. Shae Sortwell (R-Two Rivers) who has helped lead two committees investigating the mess at Evers’ DSPS, told Empower Wisconsin last week on the Vicki McKenna Show. “I don’t know if they’re incompetent or they’re purposely being obtuse in not sharing the information.”
