Corey Ruiz Shooting Ignites Wisconsin Governor’s Race | Milwaukee News

A Madison police officer shot and killed Corey Ruiz in a volatile encounter captured on bystander video, sparking national attention and deepening the divide in Wisconsin’s governor’s race.

Other candidates, including Mandela Barnes and David Crowley, echoed calls for impartial, thorough probes, drawing parallels to George Floyd and Jacob Blake. As the Wisconsin Department of Justice leads the investigation, the public and candidates alike await answers — and accountability — for Ruiz’s death.

Wisconsin’s Trade Tension with Canada | Milwaukee News

Wisconsin’s economy braces for a major blow as new U.S. tariffs threaten to slap a 50% tax on Canadian imports like wine, dairy, and cement—set to hit August 19. While the White House frames it as fair trade, Wisconsin businesses fear the fallout: canceled trade missions, disrupted supply chains, and a potential $1,500 hit per household. The state’s strong trade surplus with Canada last year—$8.5B out, $6.3B in—could vanish, jeopardizing manufacturing jobs and key exports like heavy machinery. Dairy groups cheer, but manufacturers warn this could derail long-term growth and strain decades-old business relationships.
