The Wisconsin Supreme Court is once again stepping into the fight over the state's congressional lines.

The justices yesterday agreed to hear the appeal after a lower court dismissed the lawsuit.

They gave no explanation for the decision.

Two conservative justices dissented, criticizing the court's move.

The current map has helped give Republicans a 6-2 advantage in Wisconsin's congressional delegation.

Three Wisconsin dairy farmers are taking the Trump administration to court over a long-running federal program.

The lawsuit targets the dairy check-off, which collects fees from milk sales to fund research and promotion like the Got Milk campaign.

The farmers argue those funds are instead backing environmental initiatives tied to reducing emissions.

Backers of the program say it helps grow demand for dairy and benefits farmers overall.

And Wisconsin Democrats meeting in Madison this weekend are considering resolutions that would abolish ICE.

According to WizPolitics, the moves would also limit state cooperation with federal immigration agents and expand policies on issues like AI and transgender rights.

Party leaders say the proposals respond to concerns about immigration enforcement and civil liberties.

One resolution argues ICE was created out of fear and has been misused, while another calls for ending mass deportations and private detention.

Republicans are pushing back, saying the ideas go too far and could make communities less safe.

And a former lawyer for Donald Trump's 2020 campaign is asking a judge to move his criminal trial out of Madison.

Jim Trupas is charged with 11 counts of forgery related to Wisconsin's false elector scheme.

His attorneys argue heavy publicity has made it impossible to find an unbiased jury.

Prosecutors say the case should move forward and that the charges stem from alleged efforts to submit false election documents.

Christian Yelich on how the Miz got to seven and two so far this season.

This year he's filled the zone up a lot and really limited to the walks and when you can prove that you're in the zone with that and then you get guys in swing mode and it becomes a really tough bet obviously.

He's done 103.
