By demanding Ridglan deal with this in conjunction with the state, means they can’t just sell the dogs to another research breeder or euthanize them. They deserve homes. They deserve families. But this could take time and must start now.

We need a plan to release 2000 dogs without overwhelming facilities in multiple states. Otherwise, dogs that come to the upper Midwest from other states to meet their new homes can’t due to full facilities, creating consequences for those dogs as well.
The legal settlement over 300+ alleged violations at Ridglan beagle farm in WI mandates closing down breeding beagles to sell to researchers.
But there are 2000 beagles to re-home. WI @widatcp must work NOW with Ridglan to re-home them or the dogs could face dire consequences.
So true.
Vote for Chris Taylor today in Wisconsin. Our Supreme Court needs her badly.
Disappointed that the case to fix gerrymandered Cong. maps in WI has hit another wall, as the Court is treating it as a hot potato rather than vital to democracy in Trump era. Courage over self interest is needed.
Strongest reason yet to elect Chris Taylor to the WI Supreme Court.
Hey Pete Hegseth, could we quit this type of “winning” already?
Anyone else find the attack on Iran fishy?
Just watched the Department of Defense briefing. No stated goals. Unprovoked attack. Unclear mission.
No wonder they changed the name internally to Department of War.
Attending classified briefing tomorrow. They better up their game.
I’m so surprised. 🙄
Americans Are Paying the Bill for Tariffs, Despite Trump’s Claims www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/b...
To be fair, we have to spend in-district time to know what our constituents want. One week a month isn’t excessive unless your member is in hiding.
Currently, we have gerrymandered Congressional maps in WI causing a 50/50 state to have 6 GOP/2 DEM members, not 4/4.
We can have FAIR maps like our state legislative ones.
Read the facts & SPEAK OUT. Our WI Supreme court can rule on fair maps for 2026!

Every GOP member of the House of Representatives is not in Washington this week. They are home.
Use this opportunity to ask them why they won’t stand up to Trump on his tariffs taxes you are paying, the increases in healthcare costs & his misuse of ICE.
Make them answer you.
But I didn’t. Not that hard to look it up. 😵💫
The ONLY reason Trump keeps a rogue agency like ICE in Minneapolis is to INFLAME the situation.
They’ve murdered 2 innocent people so Trump can try to get his polling numbers up.
The blood is on Trump, Sec. Noem & Stephen Miller’s hands.
Sick people. Stand united everyone. 🇺🇸
The case for fair Congressional maps in Wisconsin. Why our Supreme Court must act.
captimes.com/opinion/gues...
WI’s Congressional maps are very gerrymandered. For a 50:50 purple state, we should have 4 Dems & 4 GOP. Instead, we have 6 GOP & 2 Dems due to gerrymandering.
The WI Supreme Court can change that & give us fair maps if they prioritize a case before them. Now is the time!
Tariffs on Denmark and Allies over Greenland!
Our President is an egomaniac and moron.
Now we all get to all pay more for goods so that Donald Trump can keep flaunt his ego.
Can’t we just give him another fucking award? Wake up, MAGA!

This is better.
Watch Trump last night?
Did you look up the 25th Amendment?
Trump says affordability is a “con job”.
I guess a guy who has gold-leafed the entire oval office and is building a ballroom larger than the White House at a cost that’s 10x that of a normal ballroom wouldn’t think affordability is an issue.
He doesn’t give a damn about you. 👎
Treasury Secretary Bessent: “Trump has a solution to affordability.”
Trump at the cabinet meeting: “Affordability is a hoax by the Democrats.”
Which is it??
Your morning contemplation.
I live in the Town of Vermont, Wisconsin. Sort of confusing.
This is INSANE.
Brendan Carr, the head of the FCC, reposted Donald Trump‘s social media saying Seth Meyer should be fired.
This is the same asshole who went after Jimmy Kimmel as Disney was trying to do a merger before him.
This guy is corrupt & needs to be investigated!
The Republicans that voted to reopen the government without a healthcare fix for the 22 million on the ACA and all of us paying more for health insurance due to the Big, Ugly Law, now own those increases.
If you are affected, remember who supported those cuts. 🤮
November 2026.
If @SenRonJohnson tries to get that $1 million corrupt payment that was inserted in the Senate proposal to reopen government, he needs to be recalled.
Corruption is making 8 well-connected people eligible for a payday.
Sen. Johnson must say he will refuse any corrupt payment.
I hope to be back home, but will try if I’m there. Appreciate the invite.
Remember, the real problems are people like @derrickvanorden, who voted to cut SNAP food assistance and gut healthcare.
He is making your life more expensive.
He is the one taking food from kids and healthcare from Americans.
I sure as hell hope Senate Dems don’t take two oxen & a goat, with a promise of four chickens in the future, in trade to reopen government.
It’s about healthcare.
It’s about SNAP assistance.
It’s about Trump stealing money Congress approves.
It’s about the American people.
