Sam Bee's take on the threat posed to democracy by recent GOP moves in at least parts of the US (incl. #WIPowerGrab) is both hilarious & scary/insightful. @FullFrontalSamB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2VSGt3WDkw (p.s. LEAVE MY CHEDDAR WIFE ALOOOONE)
Did someone say 'separation of powers?' "Courts likely to strike down Republican lame-duck power grabs, experts say" www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/dec/11/repu... #WIPowerGrab #WIpolitics
Walgreens has been quietly backing #Wisconsin Republicans through their anti-democratic power grabs all because it wants to continue to shirk its tax paying duties.
Might be high time to hold them accountable. #WIPowerGrab #WIpolitics...
ICYMI: #Wisconsin GOP passed lame duck legislation to hobble incoming Dem Gov Evers & Dem AG, limit early voting, etc. - explicitly to spite will of people in recent election. #WIPowerGrab #WisconsinPowerGrab #wipolitics...
ICYMI: My piece for @NBCNewsTHINK re: #WisconsinPowerGrab - tho should update to revise that Walker definitely supports the lame duck session & aims to subvert will of #Wisconsin voters, per statements/actions today. #wipolitics #WIPowerGrab
More blatant hypocrisy from @ScottWalker as he tries to push through dozens of appointments during lame duck, despite having pushed outgoing Dem Gov. Doyle not to do anything during his lame duck in '10. www.miamiherald.com/news/business/article222... #WIpowergrab...
When #wiunion protested Walker/GOP's union-busting Act 10 at beginning of their 8-year reign, we were criticized for "not respecting the results of election."
...how about now?? #WIpowergrab #WisconsinPowerGrab #wipolitics @ScottWalker @repvos @WIGOPSenate
#Wisconsin call your senators! Especially if one of the following GOP senators who might be leaning toward no/open to voting down the #WIpowergrab! #wipolitics #WisconsinPowerGrab
Grateful to have been tapped to write this for @NBCNewsTHINK; less thrilled about the reason for the need. It's not over, y'all. #Wisconsin Legislature is slated to vote later today on #WIPowerGrab...
Pretty reliable stream of the #WIPowerGrab hearing is here: www.wis.community/politics/politics-news/l... - public testimony coming now, overwhelming against the bills so far....
Nygren arguing expanded early voting is "discriminatory" against rural counties, says we should decrease them. Erpenbach claps back: That seems like an argument to increase resources/support for expanding early voting in those counties, not decreasing it overall #WIPowerGrab
They couldn't successfully win the elections, so they changed the playing field. They couldn't successfully rig the elections, so now they're just straight up stealing the outcome. #WIpowergrab
"With support for some parts of the measure shaky, opponents are focusing lobbying efforts on 5 senators in hopes of getting two or more of them to abandon all or part of the plan." - @journalsentinel
