WI needs an AG (top cop AND lawyer) that will promote & defend: ✅Religious Liberty ✅Election Integrity ✅Right to Bear Arms ✅Sep of Powers ✅Parental Rights ✅Unborn And will ALWAYS fight against: ❌Mandates & Lockdowns ❌Defunding Cops ❌Deep State ❌Open Borders ❌Big Tech

If you haven't yet, get out and vote! @TomTiffanyWI ran hard through the finish. Throughout the campaign he proposed serious reforms that would make Wisconsin competitive again, like reforming K12, eliminating the state income tax, and streamlining the rulemaking process. No doubt in my mind he would make an outstanding governor. The status quo won't cut it. New leadership is desperately needed.

Is UW's BadgersVote initiative violating the Wisconsin Constitution by using private funding for its get out the vote machine while partnering with the Madison City Clerk? Remember, in 2024 over 54% of Wisconsinites voted to amend the state constitution. This was the amendment question: Question 1: “Use of private funds in election administration. Shall section 7 (1) of article III of the constitution be created to provide that private donations and grants may not be applied for, accepted, expended, or used in connection with the conduct of any primary, election, or referendum?" @ReformingGovt's full report exposing the UW operation can be found at reforminggovernment.org.

Great analysis from @American_Habits + @RayNothstine. All the focus is on Congressional races. But don't forget about the impact of gubernatorial races. "Today, the need for that kind of bold, state-level leadership has never been greater. Congress has become increasingly dysfunctional, and federal spending has careened onto an unsustainable path. History suggests that Congress will not reform itself from within. Any serious effort to restore fiscal responsibility and constitutional order must begin in the state capitals."

With the general election looking more and more dire by the second for the GOP, this is some really insightful analysis from @DairylandSent and @joeminocqua. Breaking the state down by 8 regions, Joe points out the MKE and Dane County regions' early vote totals are each down by over 10% from 2022.

Recently I had the chance to sit down with my good friend Brian Dainsberg, lead pastor at @myabcchurch, to discuss the rise of socialism in America. We break down: * the policy proposals outlined in the DSA "program," * what is fueling the growth of this movement in America, * why the constitutional principal of separation of powers is the most critical line of defense against this vision, * what implementation of the program could look in Wisconsin, and * what can actually fix the underlying frustrations that are drawing people to the DSA. buzzsprout.com/1822693/episo…

Very interesting map for understanding the current geopolitical dynamic in the Middle East.

Turns out in addition to facing potential constitutional questions, UW's get out the vote operation is using some questionable marketing. The Student Voters Union and "Se* Out Loud" are encouraging voters to "drag" themselves to the polls with the help of a "drag king." The event is funded "in part by an Associated Students of Madison viewpoint neutral grant." Check out @ReformingGovt's latest report on the UW-Madison GOTV operation at bit.ly/4ytxMki.

Outstanding analysis from @uwfederalist's Colin Burns (who is also a @ReformingGovt Fellow). There are serious constitutional questions that must be answered by UW's BadgersVote Coalition...

With Planned Parenthood of WI now "ask[ing] Wisconsin courts to affirm the Constitution's promise of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" by bringing a "landmark" abortion lawsuit, the question remains - are the campaign promises like the one from Judge Brunette below a violation of SCR 60.06(3)(b)? I think the answer is clearly YES. The PP case is not merely "likely" to come before #SCOWIS, it has already been filed in circuit court and almost certainly will be appealed to the Supreme Court.
