NEW EVENT! 5/20, from 5:30-8:00 It's an outdoors, picnic-style event, so bring your picnic, and bring food to donate! A list of needed foods are at the bottom of the image here. Food goes to the Green County Food Pantry. We'll also have speakers for people to share their stories and their ideas.

Here's my statement on the Wisconsin Supreme Court's decision to uphold my 400-year veto. TL;DR: Hell yes! ⬇️

Lisa Murkowski is great at speaking. Lisa Murkowski is terrible at voting. One of these is more important than the other. Until she votes as sensibly as she speaks, it's absolutely crucial to vote her out.

The beer industry is one of the most significant industries here in Wisconsin, and it also stands to be one of the hardest hit. This will impact all of our communities deeply, and we have to be prepared for it. Here's my latest Substack post on it: open.substack.com/pub/badgerdi...

Just posted my first Substack! It's about how we should move forward after Ben Wikler's leadership is over. There's some big shoes fill, but I think we have an opportunity to build on his progress with the right leader. open.substack.com/pub/badgerdi...

Men will complain that women are indecisive and then turn around and vote for Donald Trump

Whoops!

Brad Schimel, who is trying to buy a seat on our Supreme Court, supported overturning the 2020 election. Remember that when he claims he's the "common sense" choice. Erasing democracy is not Common Sense

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

Great turnout despite the weather for the first #50501 protest in Monroe, WI today. A dictator's greatest asset is silence and apathy. In Wisconsin, we won't let that happen. We will not be silent, and we will not go without resistance. Wisconsin is NOT for sale! Photo cred- Kelly Hogan (FB)
