Send us your questions for our next Reader Mailbag!
In these discombobulating times, let's recombobulate together.
The Recombobulation Area is a six-time Milwaukee Press Club award-winning weekly opinion column and online publication written and published by veteran Milwaukee journalist Dan Shafer. Learn more about it here.
With the midterm elections now in our rear view mirror, we’ve been taking some time to do some different things, and recombobulate and reflect on all the work we’ve done in 2022.
There’s been a lot! And a lot of campaigns and elections, especially, from the Milwaukee mayor’s race early in the year to the August partisan primaries to the general election this fall.
But looking back, somehow we’ve gone this whole year without a single Reader Mailbag! How is this possible?!?
Well, it’s time to change that. We always want to be hearing from you, our readers, because as a reader-funded publication, you are the ones making The Recombobulation Area possible.
So, whether you have lingering questions about the elections or there’s a story you wanted to ask about that may have fallen through the cracks during all of this campaigning, or you want to ask about the Bucks or the year’s best TV shows or something weird happening in Milwaukee or even something unrelated to anything we’ve ever written about, we’re going to be here with answers.

ONE OTHER THING:
You guys just keep sending us photos whenever you go through security at Milwaukee’s airport, and we just have to say…we absolutely love this.
Never stop sending us these, please.

Why does no group, organization, nonprofit or local media attempt to discredit/embarrass/humiliate the Bradley Foundation for their funding of demonstrated racist, extreme rightwing, climate change denier, anti public education, fake election fraud (except for CMD in Madison & 1 New Yorker story) ? What makes such a public, horrific group untouchable?
Q1: Is there hope for the WOW counties yet?
Q2: With talk of an Amtrak station in Madison, what are your thoughts on how that may/may not change travel/transportation in WI?
