Blaming Democrats for a shutdown when you control the House, Senate, and the White House only proves you can't govern.

Isn't that the point of any Friday proclamation/announcement/tweet/lie that comes out of the White House? Confusion, Chaos, FUD.

Thanks JoJo!

YouTube video by Governor Tony Evers Gov. Evers Releases Message to Wisconsinites Regarding Apparent Trump Administration Arrest Threats

Yesterday, a top Trump Administration official made an apparent threat to arrest me.

Here’s my message to Wisconsinites. I encourage you to take a few minutes to watch. ⬇️

Now. Where is the support of Republican State legislators?

Federal Watchdog Reveals Dozens of Inquiries Into Trump’s Withholding of Funds The investigations by the Government Accountability Office come as the White House looks to expand its power over the federal budget.

NEW: Top federal watchdog says they have opened more than *three dozen* investigations to determine if President Trump violated federal law by improperly withholding congressionally authorized funds. Earlier, Dems estimated Trump has blocked more than $400b.

No matter how well you play, if you are consistently a bully on the neighborhood basketball court eventually the other kids won't invite you to the game and will play without you. We have become the bully and the rest of the kids are going to start enjoying b-ball without us. #tariffs #politics

2025 Supreme Court of Wisconsin Candidate Questionnaire In anticipation of the April 1, 2025 election, we sent a questionnaire to the two candidates running for Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Ok #Wisconsin . This is a no brainer. The Wisconsin #aclu sent out a questionnaire to Crawford and Schimel to help us compare their #SupremeCourt candidacies. Take a moment and read their answers. How can we elect a judge who won't even answer?

I tried to fact check this bizarre answer on @maddow.msnbc.com by trying to get in contact with DOGE. There’s no phone number or email publicly available. If a Member of Congress couldn’t get in touch with DOGE how do they expect anyone else to?

Yes the math, but in the end reactance, inductance, susceptance, capacitance show up in a lot of places and I'm still getting my head around them. But in the end I got enough right to pass.

Well, perhaps not directly related, but getting this off my desk, I plan to get back to developing my CW proficiency.

Some examples of research USGS does that is at risk with RIFs and restructuring:
- earth quake and volcano monitoring and warnings
- landslide risk assessments
- water quality testing
- wildlife conservation
- wildfire prevention and post-fire rehabilitation
- invasive species tracking

If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK!

Stopped at Barnes and Noble today and guess what they were selling. THEY'RE BACK!!

Trump administration tells agencies they can ignore Musk order on email reply The Office of Personnel Management told HR officials that employees wouldn’t be let go for not replying to an email asking what they did last week.

President Trump and President Musk need to get on the same page. After creating unnecessary chaos, they once again prove their incompetence.

While the Musk and Bannon #Nazi salutes are despicable and should be condemned we are missing the point of the gesture. They manage to control the narrative for yet another cycle. They throw out red meat and we spend valuable cycles talking about it. How do we control the narrative ourselves?

Ash Wednesday is still a week and a half away and shelves are already full of Chocolate Easter Bunnies.

Elon Musk is trying to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court “His attack on democracy isn’t limited to gutting the federal government. He wants it all.”

We need to vote Wisconsin!

Thanks for some dose of hope.

Shove the Presidency Down Trump’s Throat Liberals spent the president-elect’s first term trying and failing to kick him out of office. This time out, they need to turn the White House into a prison.

A good reframing of our work in the coming years. What I hear is that instead of spending our precious time observing The Don and complaining we need to turn around and keep our attention on the reality on the street and heaping those problems on The Don.

Watching the State funeral for Jimmy Carter. Fascinating that nearly every sentence uttered is an antithesis of the incoming administration.

Beautiful shot. You just have to know exactly where to look.

Yes, it looks like Vice President Trump didn't get all that he wanted today.
