isn't the fact that this *judicial* election makes national news, and takes place between contenders referred to by their political affiliations, already a politicisation of the judiciary that creates a threat to judicial independence in itself?
βThe thing is, when thereβs an agreement that weβre all in this, that we all go, bullies have less room to push people around and less time to assert dominance. And a surprising amount of them fold at the first sign of FUCK. YOU.β
They really canβt. They just changed the voting rules to make sure people had proper identification. They had to do that for this election for the first time.
They poured nearly $100 million into Wisconsin to buy a judge.
But the people? They showed up.

Judge Susan Crawford wonβagainst the odds, against the money, and for democracy.

Let this be a message: Hey Musk-You can't buy justice. Not here. Not now. πβ¨

Proud of WI, I lived there for 5 wonderful years. Wonderful, warm truly nice people. Who wonβt be bought or cowed. Very much like Canadians. Proud of my former Cheesehead and Badger neighbors.
Credit to those who made calls and knocked on doors. Seems like Wisconsinβs Democratic Chair Ben Wikler is a savant at organizing. We need him at the national level.
Why does Jake Tapper keeps calling her a "liberal judge"?
Doesn't this further reinforce the idea that judges are not impartial?
Doesn't this discourse further push people into their own corner?
Doesn't CNN further divide people?
I guess you missed it. @cnn-news.bsky.social always repeats what Trump says amplifying his message. It's been that way for 9 yrs bc he gives the media access. Apparently there's nothing better than that when it comes to news. Alternative facts are facts now too. RealityTV News is $$$$$. @msnbc.com
THE OTHER DEMOCRATIC JUDGES SHOULD NOT APPEAR WITH CRAWFORD. Our message should be that Judges should be apolitical. Let the GOP be the tampering idiots. IMHO.
It was a great day. Crawford was the perfect ending to the awe inspiring show that Booker put on. I watched a lot of Booker's speach. There are so many things he said that need to be canned and circulated especially at times with such passion. Muskrat take your money and shove it up your ass.
Freaking Hallelujah!!!!! And not letting Elon buy the election like they did for Trump !!!

The fact that we won this consequential race for the Democrats his huge fact that Florida remains stupidly red will be painful for Florida, but the pain resignations through America cause we couldβve used those two blue seats
With Florida being a retirement state, this really baffles me that we couldn't pull this one off. Their senior constituents are going to be the ones losing, sadly.
Muskoliniβs resources are more limited than he thinks. Heβs upping his dose of special K so he canβt feel reality punching him in the mouth. Keep smacking him down on all fronts!!!
At least not tonight. I think he will do it again in 2028. Ironcially I think Trump/GOP might win even without his help. The country sadly has drifted right the past 10 years especially young people.
The majority of white people have not voted for a Democrat since LBJ in 1964. Even GWB broke the planet they voted for McCain 53-45%. I think that answers your question sadly.
Sorry but he might do what he did in 2028 unless the rumors and suggestions are correct! New evidence and witnesses to Musks interference! Maybe we can get it impeached and imprisoned!
Trump isnβt running again in β28. His mind is mush now and most of the country hates him. And there is no one in the GOP that has IT to replace him at the top of he ticket.
He is π― running in 28. Who is going to stop him? Congress, the courts?? And if they do he will ignore it and dare anymore to stop him. Only way he leaves office is either in a body bag (dead) or drag out by a angry mob. And regrettably the cult is too big for the later.
The Constitution until it doesnβt. He wonβt even make it til the end of these 4 years. And you think heβs gonna win an election at 82? After what the country put Biden through with one bad debate?
Once upon a time a Muskrat fought with some Cheeseheads,
He gave money to win the race but instead,
He got his ass whooped by a woman even with all his bread!
Now the nation knows everyone canβt be bought
and enuff said!
In Wisconsin, the people showed that true power isnβt boughtβitβs built by the heart. Elon Muskβs millions couldnβt silence their call for justice. Let this be a reminder: united, our voice is unstoppable.
This is how we must stand against oppression & destruction of our country. We must unite & support those willing to stand with the 300 million at the bottom. And we must together defend our nation from becoming a living hell. We are exhausted by the current political climate that works against us.
Yeah these mean nothing in context to my question. I agree with the images, but I still donβt know what you are trying to say with the previous sentence.
We need to use this win as a rally to keep the momentum going and for future wins! I purpose we start using hashtag #ItStartsWithWisconsin FOR ALL FUTURE WINS TO SEND tRump and MuskRat the message!!!
This is awesome news, but I can't wrap my head around the fact that 45.6% voted for Schimel and 56% for Fine. I can't believe they got that many votes...30%, I would understand. Who is voting for these incredibly unserious, incompetent clowns?
Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social
ππ» It was a choice between right and wrong!! We will not be bullied into blind obedience and WISCONSIN CANNOT BE BOUGHT!!
And will stay that way for a generation if not longer. Meatball Ron brought in tons and tons of MAGAers from blue states and drove away anyone who was decent out of the state.
It won't though sadly. We are really entering a dark place and there is really no way out. Republicans have won the white vote since Nixon in 68. They are never changing.
I looked earlier about 8:20 and it look like Schimel would win. I had been pretty depressed from then til now when I saw your post. I feel MUCH better now!!

Bwahaha! Musk tied his name and face to the big loser.
Musk is despised by ordinary Americans across the country.

As it should be for a man bent on the death of democracy.
I think this is the excuse the Republicans are going to use to dump him.
