Wisconsin cleared one backlog of unemployment claims in late 2020, but other backlogs exist

Biden not to blame for rising diesel (or gas) prices
A new party in the White House means it’s time for a time-honored American tradition — the blame game. Anything wrong in the world is now the fault of the two-month old administration.

Did the increase of children arriving at the border start under Trump or Biden?
The rising numbers of children arriving alone at the southern border pose "an enormous challenge," but President Joe Biden’s election isn’t what triggered the surge, said U.S. Rep.
