It's been the honor of my life to serve as Chair of WisDems for the last six years. With a pro-democracy Supreme Court secured for years to come, Wisconsin can reach for a trifecta in 2026. Our state party is in superb shape. So today, I’m announcing that, this summer, I’ll be passing the torch.🧵

Janet is as steady as a three-wheeler with handbrakes. I chose her because she has strong lesbian-with-a-clipboard vibes. But not even Janet can put spin on this market. I actually want to tell everyone, “I’m fine because I’m country. I’ve got a mattress and I’m not afraid to use it.”

“Americans built the richest and most prosperous society ever to exist, and one part of that was the creation of an endless stream of handheld entertainments, which told them they were miserable and impoverished, and consequently the country committed immediate political and economic suicide”

Putting out an APB: Is there an immigration attorney who is currently awake and can speak for a few minutes? A student of mine has an emergency situation. DMs are open. cc @chrisgeidner.bsky.social @mjsdc.bsky.social @annabower.bsky.social @kevinmkruse.bsky.social @kenwhite.bsky.social

RFK Jr plans to attend the funeral of a second child dead from measles in Texas. There are compounding and complicated tragedies here in a national outbreak driven by misinformation where the Dept. of Health and Human Services is led by an anti-vaccine activist. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
Some quantum of the people that showed up today will still find a reason not to vote on behalf of their brothers and sisters who don't have the privilege to sit an election out.
Dear white people: You still have to vote. It’s the only thing. You fucked up in November, but you don’t have to fuck up anymore. Vote Democrat Vote EVERY ELECTION #Vote
100 percent this. Saw a surprising number of wheelchairs in Prescott and was loving the commitment.
A huge SHOUT OUT to so many people with disabilities or age attending today's event. I saw a lot of people with canes and walkers; it made me say to myself, "if THEY can do this, you certainly can!" All around, very cathartic to show up and be heard today.

For those of us who knew that November 2024 was the entire ball game and therefore put our whole effort into it, it's not bothersome to hear this. It's just facts.
Our chance to stop this was November 5. We failed to do that. We didn’t give the Dems a single leg to stand on. There’s nobody coming to save us. We’re going to have to survive until the midterms and do a much better job than we did in 2024. I know nobody wants to hear that, but it’s the truth.

Generally agree with George here, with this clarification. The economy is at risk *because our freedoms and the rule of law are at risk.
That said, the Dems need to find a way to express that they understand, and impress upon others, the moment we are in, when far more than the economy (you know, like our freedoms, and the rule of law) are at stake.

I feel like they would have already known that if they were ever going to know that
I truly hope that one silver lining we take from this coup is that voters begin to understand that when you vote for president, you’re not just selecting one person. You’re selecting all the judges they’ll appoint, and the entire cabinet.
