We are going backwards:
attempted to pass the Right to Contraception Act, a bill I authored with Lisa Subeck.

Every single WI Senate Republican voted against moving this proposal forward. They had an opportunity to show Wisconsinites they weren't extremists like their national counterparts, but they chose to double down on their anti-choice, anti-woman, and anti-freedom position.

There are so few speaking out against trumpism &

Project2025 that we have to consider the entire Party to be

complicit. From top to bottom.

voters seem to think words like "fascist" & "socialist" are names you call people you don't like.

But... Words have real meanings.

call "fascists" for specific reasons.
Republicans - leaders & followers:

View political opponents as "enemies"

Want to dominate every aspect of government

Are willing to lie, steal, cheat to do it

The GOP openly oppose democracy. In fact have been telling their voters that the US is a "republic" & not a "democracy." Nonsense. But, they believe it.

Your local much beloved Repubicans that you may share religion, anti-choice, and other views with are part of the Insurrection.
Part of the slow-rolling coup.
Part of gerrymandering.
Part of homophobic attacks, racism, sexism...

Republican voters will live to regret their decisions.
Many will claim that the really "didn't know" or "didn't understand."

They did.

The goal is to avoid the pitfalls of Trump’s first years in office, when the Republican president’s team was ill-prepared, his Cabinet nominees had trouble winning Senate confirmation and policies were met with resistance.

We are in such dire straits that we cannot comprehend it - and take action

is the end of American democracy

It is already being implemented

It has received very little news coverage

Many people have never heard of it

There is little news coverage.

Let's make sure everyone knows!

Today feels so momentous.
I am so sorry for everyone who has fallen prey to the lies & manipulation from the far right. I wish that I could help you.

My heart goes out to those whose relatives have fallen prey to authoritarian rhetoric.

It is a tragedy that "the far right" is now the "mainstream Republican."

I have not found any prominent Wisconsin Republicans who will denounce the:
>Election lies, fraudulent electors, those who pressured Pence, the insurrectionists, and the voting suppression which is on-going.
>SARS-CoV-1 lies that killed so many people.

Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) told the teenagers to “get the f**k out” of the rotunda… The source described Van Orden’s demeanor as “physically aggressive” toward the pages, NBC News reports.

The lawmaker was “screaming inches from the pages’ faces” and “shooed” at them with his hands several times, said the source, who described previously unreported details of Van Orden’s behavior.

The pages, who were 16 and 17 years old, were “visibly shaken,” according to the source.

It isn't news that is very heavily gerrymandered. Republicans in our state have been very involved in election denial -- including pressuring Pence and the faudulent elector scheme.

Do Independents, moderate Republicans, Libertarians, Greens, etc all realize that their voices are silenced by gerrymandering?

Wisconsin Senate Republicans
Republican Party of Wisconsin

We win by motivating people to defend American ideals like democracy and human rights. Anti-American MAGA Republicans win by rigging the system against itself in order to make it harder to vote and easier for them to carve districts that silence the voice of the people.
