[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

We need more elected Democrats to act with the urgency of Eric Swalwell and Amy Klobuchar. Too many of you are acting like you care more about your holiday shopping than the fact that Rome is burning! 🇺🇸

[Senator Chris Larson @SenChrisLarson]

Really struggling to figure out how Wisconsin Republicans are against culturally responsive teaching and concepts like equity and inclusion.

It’s almost like they realize their whole existence as a party is dependent on racial inequality and they don’t want it to end. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[Sari Beth Rosenberg @saribethrose]

Kids aren’t scared about going to school & learning about systemic racism.

They ARE scared of going to school & becoming a victim of a school shooting.

[PerSISTERS @per_sisters]

@waltshaub To this day, he will not concede. There goes peaceful transition of power : everything to a #democracy. Yet @SenateGOP kisses his ring and scoffs at our peril

[Ann Jacobs @AnnJacobsMKE]

"Wisconsin has become ground zero for attempts by political actors to achieve partisan control over a state’s election process." https://t.co/RCNhYqgWuW

[Ben Wikler @benwikler]

Why is Johnson doing this? He’s catering to an extreme-fringe base. This strategy is how he won his reelection in 2016—and how he plans to win his 3rd term in 2022. He thinks he knows what his voters want to hear. He’s giving to them, even if it kills them.https://t.co/XzB3ovywsg

“technically, the next attempt to overthrow a national election may not qualify as a coup. It will rely on subversion more than violence, although each will have its place. If the plot succeeds, the ballots cast by voters will not decide the presidency in 2024.” @bartongellman

[Charles P. Pierce @CharlesPPierce]

This is the damndest government record I’ve read since the transcript of the smoking-gun tape was released in August of 1974. And it’s 10 times as insane. https://t.co/8RJD4d92Vv

[Francesca Hong For Governor @FrancescaHongWI]

Over 900,000 confirmed COVID-19 cases and almost 10,000 deaths in Wisconsin, yet the WI GOP puppets are committed to advancing the white nationalist culture war agenda of their corporate overlords (Bradley, AFP, Heritage, etc) over protecting Wisconsin lives and livelihoods.

@GovEvers

[@hayesbrown.bsky.social @HayesBrown]

Jen Psaki was right in that there aren’t enough FDA-approved at-home COVID tests being produced to send them to every American

But that doesn’t justify the convoluted insurance reimbursement scheme that the WH has opted for instead

[Wisconsin Health News @WiHealthNews]

Wisconsin health systems are deferring care, struggling with discharging people to nursing homes and facing staffing challenges as they grapple with the state’s latest COVID-19 surge fueled by the delta variant.

@ABCPolitics Mull??

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

We will not be posting the deranged photo of Lauren Boebert and her young children holding weapons of war.

Instead, let's honor the teens who were murdered due to this fetishization of guns:

Hana St. Juliana, 14.
Tate Myre, 16.
Justin Shilling, 17.
Madisyn Baldwin, 17.

[Naomi Dann @naomi_dann]

The longest war in US history ended this year, and still the defense budget grew.

But somehow child care, prescription drugs, family leave, and home care are "too expensive."

[Ben Wikler @benwikler]

The far-right Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty conducted a 10-month investigation into WI's 2020 election. It found "no evidence of widespread voter fraud." So why is the GOP attacking the election system? So it can overturn the results next time.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

This is a tragedy waiting to happen, and we should all be concerned for the Boebert kids. There is a history of domestic violence in their home, and the Congresswoman has bragged that her guns are unsecured.

This photo is exactly why we must keep fighting for stronger gun laws.

[AverageCitizen @AverageCitize12]

Hey @SpeakerVos, is this the type of scum you're paying with OUR money?

[Center for Disease Prevention Research - MCW @PreventionMCW]

Yikes. Get vaccinated Wisconsin!

[Jud Lounsbury @JudLounsbury]

Wow. World's greatest self-own.

Hey Bex... umm... "CRT" has lots of abbreviations. In this case, it's two SCIENCE teachers doing a class on CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE TEACHING, which has been around a lonnng time.

That's why Critical Race Theory isn't mentioned. anywhere.
