Wauwatosa, WI — 175 years ago today Solomon Juneau and other Milwaukee leaders arrive after the first train trip ever taken in Wisconsin. It took 12 minutes, which is faster than it takes today to drive between the two cities. There is currently no commuter rail option.
Sold newspaper clipping from 11/21/1850: FIRST RAIL HOAD BIDE IN WIS CONSIN.
Excursion to Wauwatosa.
Yesterday afternoon, pursuant to an invitation from the officers of the Milwaukee & Missiesippi Railroad Company, & number of our citizens took a ride on the care as far as Wauwatosa.
The
company included the Mayor and Common Coun cil, the President and Directors of the B. R. Com-pany, a representative from each of our City pe-pers, auda few other invited guests; making about two car loade in all. The Locomotive Wisconsin started with her freight shortly before
4 o'clock,
and in tove minutes broaght up
at Spurr's Tavern in Wauwatosa, going st the rate of 30 miles an hour, without any special ef. fort. The track was found to be in capital order, solid asa rock, and comparing favorably in all respects with the best made eastern roads.— Among the guests we must not forget to mention our esteemed friend and former Mayor, SoL-OMoN JuNEat, the founder and first settler of Mil waukee, who yesterday, for the first time in his life, saw a Locomotive and enjoyed a ride on a Rail Road! He did enjoy it, emphatically, and where our readers remember that but sixteen years ago he was the only white man living here, when now we can show a city of 22,000 inhabi-tants, with five Plank Roads and one Rail Road,
"penetrating the interior," they will admit, we think, that he had good cause to do eo. After a brief stop at Wauwatosa, and with a fair addition to their number, the guests were whisked back to the City, in a quarter of an hour, all highly pleased with the excursion, and proud of so good & beginning for our Rail Road to the Mississippi.
We heartily congratulate the inteiligent and energetic Preeident and Directors of the Road, at their succeseful progress thus far, and cordially wish them God speed in their great work. The enterprize is one which commends itself to the gond wishes and hearty help of every citizen ofMap of Milwaukee showing the drive from Milwaukee to Wauwatosa taking 17 minutes

Elon Musk casually, and illegally, dismantled USAID. According to a new study in the Lancet, that action will lead to *14 million* premature deaths between 2025 and 2030. Again: Elon Musk is directly responsible for 14 million coming deaths. 4.5 million will be children.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️
Scatterplot titled “Empirical Evidence of Ideological Targeting in Federal Layoffs: Agencies seen as liberal are significantly more likely to face DOGE layoffs.”
	•	The x-axis represents Perceived Ideological Leaning of federal agencies, ranging from -2 (Most Liberal) to +2 (Most Conservative), based on survey responses from over 1,500 federal executives.
	•	The y-axis shows Agency Size (Number of Staff) on a logarithmic scale from 1,000 to 1,000,000.

Each point represents a federal agency:
	•	Red dots indicate agencies that experienced DOGE layoffs.
	•	Gray dots indicate agencies with no layoffs.

Key Observations:
	•	Liberal-leaning agencies (left side of the plot) are disproportionately represented among red dots, indicating higher layoff rates.
	•	Notable targeted agencies include:
	•	HHS (Health & Human Services)
	•	EPA (Environmental Protection Agency)
	•	NIH (National Institutes of Health)
	•	CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau)
	•	Dept. of Education
	•	USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development)
	•	The National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE), despite its conservative leaning (+1 on the scale), is an exception among targeted agencies.
	•	A notable outlier: the Department of Veterans Affairs (moderately conservative) also faced layoffs despite its size.

Takeaway:

The figure visually demonstrates that DOGE layoffs disproportionately targeted liberal-leaning agencies, supporting claims of ideological bias. The pattern reveals that layoffs were not driven by agency size or budget alone but were strongly associated with perceived ideology.
