Thank you to everyone who helped make This Is The Plan a NYT bestseller! Now that you have the book, the next step is to start organizing. Let me know how you're getting involved in the comments! 🧯🔥

The Brewers are on their way to sweep the World Series! But did you know Milwaukee almost lost the Brewers altogether? Here's how Wisconsin kept the Crew right where they belong.

Spent the weekend knocking doors and turning out voters alongside folks across Wisconsin. A Democratic trifecta is within reach. Now we’ve got to bring it home. Come knock doors with us. You don’t need a perfect speech. Just show up. 👉 mobilize.us/wisdems/

That book in Lula's hand: Brazil's Constitution.

YES Brazil Re-Elects Lula, Rejecting Predecessor’s Son www.nytimes.com/live/2026/10...

A Serbian nationalist leader who courted MAGA just lost in a landslide

Trump: Gas was $1.85 before I made that decision about Iran. I'd do it again. I thought gas would be double or triple. It's a small price to pay.

Brazil. Absolutely amazing. Let's do it here next.

Trump: While oil prices are temporarily high, our oil and gas industry is making hundreds of billions of dollars. My people said, "please don't mention that, sir."

@katmabu.bsky.social is helping candidates across the country organize in a way that helps people whether their campaigns win or lose. Kinda weird to imagine politics being… inspiring?

Real

Truck in Waukesha County

Ohio voter: The fact that Ramaswamy hasn't disowned the ad is beyond comprehension. It's the ugliest thing I've seen in my lifetime.

Voted today! Felt great. Dems up and down the ballot, and NO on the Wisconsin constitutional amendments. Here's why:

My mayor, @satyaformadison.bsky.social, has done so much for Madison—including when she stood up to MAGA bullies threatening to jail her in their sham "investigations" into 2020's election. She announced today she won't seek reelection next year. But her impact will far outlast her tenure.

You pay more and Tom Tiffany laughs.

Nearly a million people lost a total of $3.8 billion on Trump's crypto coin

Mere seconds after Ramaswamy takes the stage in Columbus, an attendee begins yelling at him for his ad with Amy Acton's mother about childhood abuse

The average person has voted zero times to continue the war in Iran. Tom Tiffany voted five times for Trump’s war… five times. That’s five chances to say “enough.” And Tom Tiffany got it wrong five times.

A despicable ad from Vivek Ramaswamy who is a despicable person. Desperate Republicans have run some horrible, dishonest ads to distract from their failures in office, but maybe none worse than this one.

The Iowa County WI Dems have already knocked every targeted door in every city and village in the county. Twice. Love the energy!

On behalf of a grateful city, I want to thank U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin and Governor Tony Evers for their work and advocacy to secure these funds. Madison residents are tremendously supportive of passenger rail and excited for all the ways it will connect us to our neighboring communities.

The gales of November came early. Naturally, Wisconsin said, “Surf’s up.”

#NoKings across Wisconsin is here to remind you: early voting in person starts Tuesday!

Your trip to the doctor or work shouldn't become searchable in a government database. That’s the problem with Flock cameras—and why David Crowley standing up for your privacy matters.

You betcha Tom Tiffany loves data centers.

GO PACK GO and f*** the Bears

Whoever wins the governorships in the battleground states will certify the 2028 presidential election. There are election deniers running, in Wisconsin and elsewhere. We've got to beat them. My new NYT op-ed:

Decisions over what happens to your body shouldn't depend on who wins the next election. That's why David Crowley supports a constitutional amendment to guarantee reproductive freedom in Wisconsin.

The many over the money. That’s how we get this done.

Trump's plan to control threats from AI: an agreement that is... not legally binding, just "morally binding." Oh, and Tom Tiffany voted for a ten-year BAN on states regulating AI.

Mitchell Berman, an ER nurse, could flip Paul Ryan's old seat. How sweet would it be for Paul Ryan’s district to become the place where Dems win a majority in the House?"

If Jenna Jacobson wins, power could shift in Wisconsin's State Senate for the first time in a generation. Guess what that means?

David Crowley saw tough times growing up. Then, when he was elected to a position of responsibility, he delivered so that fewer people would go through what he did. That's one reason I trust David to lead Wisconsin.

Thanks for having me Idea Fest! I came with one Wisconsin-sized idea: let’s elect David Crowley governor.

And as their voters cry out for help affording basic necessities, Tom Tiffany, Derrick Van Orden, Bryan Steil and the other Republicans running Congress are doing nothing about it.

Did private equity buy your grandparents' nursing home? That’s what almost happened in Sauk County. And around Wisconsin. Meet the folks fighting back.

Tom Tiffany voted to raise the cost of your healthcare… and then gave a tax break for data centers.

Here’s what Tom Tiffany doesn’t want you to know about his position on AI.

For the first time in a generation, Democrats have a clear shot at winning a trifecta in Wisconsin. When Dems win, they have to change the system itself—so they can actually deliver on public schools, housing, healthcare, worker power, and affordability.

Fishing in Wisconsin should be simple: grab a pole, some bait, fill up the tank, head to the water. But gas costs more. Bait costs more. Gear costs more. Let’s not even talk about boats. The things that make Wisconsin feel like Wisconsin are getting harder to afford.
