Elon Musk might be trying to buy a Supreme Court seat for $20 million, but Wisconsin is not for sale. The people of Wisconsin own their football team—they don’t want a billionaire owning their Court.

Democrats like @gregcasar.bsky.social are showing up while Republicans hide.

This story for the New Yorker is the culmination of many years of reporting on and thinking about one thing: What's the deal with pitching? It was nice to reconnect with people I know from the baseball world, and I have now seen the inside of a person's elbow. www.newyorker.com/sports/sport...

If free speech comes from the heart, why does Trump keep trying to put a dagger through it?

Former Republican Congressman joins @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social and slams Republicans for downplaying the significance of the group chat leak. “This administration is just so ludicrous in the way it’s trying to defend this.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyKT...

Rep. @robertgarcia.bsky.social: I will never stop pushing back and fighting Elon Musk and Donald Trump…

Elon is spending so much on attack ads that he forgot to check if he's targeting the right person.

Judge Crawford: “With so much at stake, I’m humbly asking you for your vote.” Visit myvote.wi.gov and make a plan to vote tomorrow! milwaukeecourieronline.com/index.php/20...

No matter the weather, Wisconsinites will fight for our democracy. Thank you to these dedicated volunteers for getting out and talking to voters. You can be a part of our dedicated team too, sign up for a shift to GET OUT THE VOTE! Less than 24 hours until polls open: buff.ly/F4SHXLU

THIS is what democracy looks like! Awesome to hear from 1,500 constituents in Hampton Roads this weekend at two town halls! I hear, feel, and understand the frustrations with this chaotic administration. I’m taking all that energy back to the Capitol today.

I had a great time hearing from you all at Saturday’s town hall with Rep. Fischer and Mayor Nirenberg. Every time we gather, I am reminded of  the power of unity and how much we can achieve when we work together.  Thank you all for coming out.

We have just 24 hours until polls open here in Florida on Tuesday! This last stretch is crucial for turning out voters but to do that we need to run ads, pay canvassers, and make sure we have voter support hotlines available. Help out here:

Tomorrow is Election Day for the Wisconsin Supreme Court race — and we have a message for Elon Musk: Wisconsin is not for sale! @benwikler.bsky.social @wisdems.bsky.social Make sure to go vote and elect Judge Crawford, WI!

“The message is that if you’re going to indict some run-of-the-mill CEO, you need to check if he’s a Trump supporter first... It’s going to cause line prosecutors to be considerably more careful about pursuing anyone who has even tenuous connections to the president." www.latimes.com/california/s...

This is exactly what his campaign tariff policy promised. He was promising to destroy the market & the economy. But most campaign reporters didn’t comprehend that.

Wisconsin is not for sale, Elon. Vote for Judge Susan Crawford tomorrow.

One day until the election. And one fact you need to know about the WI Supreme Court race. Donald Trump & Elon Musk endorsed Brad Schimel. Schimel on our Supreme Court = a rubber stamp for more Trumpian chaos in Wisconsin. Hard pass. Vote Judge Susan Crawford.

Another amazing day knocking doors yesterday! We're in the final two days, so please come out and canvass with us! You can sign up on our website or on Mobilize!

Seems like Elon is dusting off a tactic from the 2024 election: bribing voters

Americans are against deporting legal residents by 71-29 even by accident. the public has no idea what Trump is doing www.eschatonblog.com/2025/03/issu...

Trump on emissions standards for cars: "It doesn't mean a damn bit of difference to the environment. It doesn't matter."

Pushback works, part gazillion: "Here are the facts: DOGE moved forward with plans to close multiple field offices. Then, without public notice or explanation, they reversed their plans. Now they are trying to pretend like they were never planning to close the offices." popular.info/p/how-the-so...

Watching Cory Booker make some good trouble on the floor. We will bring you some of that. Talk about it. As well as the latest on signal gate, Trumps third term dreams and effort to change the subject plus the dem who may win in Florida tomorrow. All coming up at 8pm.

NOW: Sen. Cory Booker is speaking on the Senate floor and said he intends to hold the floor for as long as he is "physically able" to do so.

We’re suing the Trump administration. Along with @demgovs.org, @electdemocrats.bsky.social, the DSCC, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, and @chuckschumer.com, we filed a lawsuit to block Trump’s illegal executive order that attacks the rights of married women, the military, and people voting by mail.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com on Trump floating a 3rd term: “Do you really think that guy cares what the 22nd amendment says? Do you really think that guy won’t try anything to stay in power?... We can’t let Trump get us off the topics that warrant discussion, but we also have to be prepared.”

Unbelievable in a democracy. The Secretary of State boasts in a press statement that the United States has deported alleged TdA gang members to El Salvador. And the State Department spokesperson refuses to say under what authority and if Alien Enemies Act used.⬇️

The lightning flash was not planned...

@crow.house.gov on new bill to end dark money in elections: “Every American should be outraged by a billionaire who actually is working in this administration… and then he goes to Wisconsin. He's handing out million dollar checks. He's bribing people, basically, for their votes. This is outrageous.
