Here in Wisconsin. There's a man who sides with Trump all of the time and he wants to be our governor. Say no to Tom Tiffany.

Tom Tiffany doesn’t want you to know his record on abortion, that’s why he scrubbed his views from his website, including: ❌ Backing a total abortion ban with no exceptions ❌ Co-sponsoring an extreme federal abortion ban ❌ Voting against protecting access to birth control

Buying Russian diesel will not moderate global diesel prices substantially (for obvious reasons). Also, for example, China and India produce more diesel than Russia. Russia was the one choice where buying the diesel violates our sanctions and undermines our national interests/Ukraine security.

ICE has recorded about 100 arrests in Wisconsin’s Sauk County since early 2025, almost all through custody transfers at the local jail. Coordination with ICE has now become an issue in the upcoming sheriff race.

Wisconsin’s Sauk and Winnebago counties joined an ICE program to boost immigration enforcement. Candidates running for sheriff have vowed to quit it if elected next month.

Conservatives say it would result in highest sales tax in U.S. Tom Tiffany wants to do it. Perhaps he is NOT a good choice to be governor of Wisconsin.

The national environment is terrible for Republicans and even a bunch of red states have statewide elections in play for Democrats. So, why is purple Wisconsin still a toss-up? (Spoiler: It's the money) www.therecombobulationarea.com/p/in-wiscons...

In Wisconsin, it’s three billionaires’ money vs. the anti-Trump national environment
The state of the race in the nation’s swingiest swing state is being dominated by the competing forces of a building blue wave and the billionaires spending tens of millions to try to stem the tide.

#ICYMI: Congressman Tom Tiffany has benefited from $40.6 million in MAGA billionaire campaign cash since January 2025. Tiffany has consistently sided with the ultra-rich to advance their extreme agenda and pass tax cuts for billionaires. Now they're bankrolling his campaign.

Instead of supporting Wisconsinites, MAGA Congressman Tom Tiffany voted for a massive tax break for billionaires while voting to raise healthcare, food, energy & gas costs for everyday Wisconsinites. Visit myvote.wi.gov to make your plan to defeat Tiffany at the ballot box on November 3rd.
