Incredible Brewers game watching Ohtani strike out and Contreras deliver the goods - they were relentless tonight. Think they will win this in LA

It's astonishing the degree to which the Crowley attack ads running are just outright lies. There was no lapse in the County's health care; the problem was quickly fixed. The County sales tax was increased by 0.4% (after the GOP defunded MKE for a generation), not "doubled".

I was glad to join County Executive DavidCrowley today to celebrate the new Forensic Science and Protective Medicine Facility. This state-of-the-art facility will have a huge impact on services all across the region and the state, ensuring folks get the justice they deserve.

It’s time we give our renters a seat at the table. With my “Fair Deal for Wisconsin Renters” plan, we’re going to create protections for renters across ALL of Wisconsin.

Protect Women's Freedoms with David Crowley, Sarah Godlewski & Sen. Tammy Baldwin in MKE · WisDems
MAGA billionaires are spending tens of millions to buy this election for Congressman Tom Tiffany, because they know he'll deliver for them. Tiffany has voted with Donald Trump 100% of the time and backed an extreme MAGA agenda that benefits billionaires. As governor, he'll work for them, not us. That means higher costs, fewer rights, and a government that works for them, not Wisconsinites. Join David Crowley, Sarah Godlewski, Senator Tammy Baldwin, and other special guests for a conversation about protecting women's freedom in Wisconsin. Our state is not for sale, and neither are our rights. Hear about what's at stake and how we win this in November. Bring a friend, bring a sign, and learn how you can get involved.

Sucks, period. I’ve seen their name at the stadium (and Miller Park) and will be harder to see it on uniforms esp as they give millions to politicians and PACs whose ads mainly trash Milwaukee and often candidates who are people of color. Dick’s dad was a John Birch Society board member.

24 million dollars. That's how much three billionaires have given to Congressman Tom Tiffany because they know he's willing to sell our precious state to the highest bidder.

Doubleheader last night of Patti Smith at Riverside Theater and Grateful Drag at Vivarium. Patti read, honored Coltrane’s 100th birthday, and sang beautifully ending with People Have the Power sing-a-long. Bertha the Grateful Drag brought joy and made the line “Ain’t No Time to Hate” an anthem

I was always told that if you don’t have a seat at the table, you’re on the menu. That’s why, if we’re going to give our farmers the support they need, it starts with hearing from them directly.
