At a stop in Wisconsin on Friday, President Donald Trump vowed that things will be better for farmers in 90 days.
Trump said he will deliver new trade markets, less red tape and no taxes on rural property loan interest for farmers in Wisconsin. @AnthonyDaBruzzi@reportsbychar
In WI, @derrickvanorden runs onto stage to introduce @POTUS: "This is the most beautiful, productive, awesome space in the entire planet... [If anybody says POTUS] doesn't care about the farmers, you could look 'em straight in the eye and tell 'em, 'That's a pile of manure.'"
.@RepFitzgerald told our @reportsbychar that "anything that we can do in Wisconsin to show more transparency is a good thing," in relation to the 2020 election probe by the FBI.
.@RepGwenMoore says President Trump's "paranoia was predictable" and that she's "not surprised" at all that FBI agents are questioning Milwaukee police about the 2020 election.
Asked about the FBI's questioning of Milwaukee police officers regarding the 2020 election, @RepVanOrden said "people won't vote if they don't think their vote counts because they think there's fraud involved."
The FBI reportedly has been reaching out to Milwaukee election officials & police officers to question them about the 2020 election.
@RepGwenMoore said POTUS’ “paranoia was predictable” and she’s “not surprised at all.” @SpectrumNewsDC@SpectrumNews1WI

I’ve covered Ken Paxton for 12 yrs here in Texas. Some things to note:
- Paxton has been investigated multiple times for corruption, and charged with securities fraud.
- Those charges were dropped. He’s never been convicted of a crime.
- Texas voters elected him statewide 3x under the cloud of scandal.
- This is his FIRST election since he was impeached (and acquitted) and since his divorce became public. #txlege
.@RepTonyWied writes a letter to @POTUS asking for federal aid after storms hit WI in April.
"Following the conclusion of these assessments, it is clear that the damage is beyond the capacity for local resources to manage."
@SenRonJohnson didn't sign.

A former senior Biden campaign advisor tells me Jill Biden's comments are "revisionist history."
“She and a handful of other close advisors around President Biden kept gaslighting us, telling those of us on the campaign we were the ones who were wrong, and that he just had a ‘bad night.’ I think she saw the reputational harm this caused her and is therefore taking a new position.”
