From @dailykos.com : “While Republicans may have a short-term high, their racist gerrymandering appears to be having the unintended and politically damaging consequence of boosting Black voter turnout in the midterms.” www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

I feel the momentum but we have a lot of work to do! We have to show up on April 7th for a very important WI Supreme Court election. Let's support Chris Taylor! We can flip 2 house seats in November and get rid of Bryan Steil and Derrick Van Orden! Vote Blue up and down the ballot!

A Blue Horizon in Wisconsin?
By the end of this year, it is possible we will see Democratic dominion over the state legislature, governor’s office, and Supreme Court.

The top 7 donors in the 2024 election — all GOP — gave a combined $1B to buy Trump a second term. It's a gigantic amount of money in total — but it's just pocket change to them. We must get Big Money out of politics. No one from either party should be able to buy an election.

Those who voted for Donald Trump didn't know that they would lose their health care. He promised time and time again he wouldn't touch Medicaid — now he's blessed the House Republicans' plan to take it all away. He lies over and over again. It's time we wake up.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.
