Time to #Fight4Medicaid: This Thursday at 6pm, gather in WI GOP Assembly Speaker Robin Vos's own district to ask him to sign permission slips for his caucus to do what their voters actually want: expand Medicaid! RSVP & share: facebook.com/events/3072908…
Activists are going door to door in Republican districts all over Wisconsin to #Fight4Medicaid. Join a neighborhood team and talk to some voters. Over and over, we're finding Republicans who think it's ridiculous that their GOP Reps won't expand Medicaid!

Our teams were out on the doors last weekend. We're out this week. We'll be out there this coming weekend. Sorry, GOP: your voters see what you're doing, and they don't like it. #Fight4Medicaid

Partisan gerrymanders elect GOP legislators.
GOP legislators pass voter suppression laws.
Voter suppression laws elect GOP president.
GOP president nominates GOP SCOTUS justices.
GOP SCOTUS justices enshrine partisan gerrymanders.
In business, this would be called a “flywheel” or a “virtuous circle.” But nothing about it is virtuous. It entrenches minority rule at every step.
Oh, missed a step: GOP Senators representing a minority of the population confirm GOP scotus justices.

Students, parents, teachers, and school board members have marched—from Milwaukee, from rural Wisconsin, mile after mile, to Madison to fight for public education funding. And now, here we are at the Capitol. The Assembly votes on the budget *today.*
It’s a beautiful summer day. It’s a beautiful protest, standing for values that unite blue and red Wisconsin—the idea that kids are worth investing in. But what the GOP is cooking inside that building? Not beautiful.
“Parents shouldn’t worry about how to get their kids into a “good school”—EVERY school should be a good school.” – Raven, Milwaukee public Schools student

Biggest cheer during @iowademocrats chair @troymprice's opening remarks came after he predicted #Iowa Ds will "send @joniernst into an early retirement." #IASen #HallofFame
Sen @CoryBooker is 1st candidate to speak at #HallofFame event. (19 candidates will each have 5 minutes)
"We are being tested. This is a moral moment in America, and we must meet this test. I'm running for president because we can't take 4 more years of Donald Trump." #iacaucus
But @CoryBooker isn't just running to beat Donald Trump. That's the floor, not the ceiling. We can't just run on what we are against. Democrats need to tell people what we are for. "Every American needs health care, and make no mistake, abortion is health care." #iacaucus

Duplicating thread to prove a point.

Get ready, thread incoming! And it won't be "anecdotal!"
We begin this thread with a story... the story of how twatter throttles voices they don't like. As many are aware, this account has been heavily throttle for more than a year now. And no, the truth is, the numbers just don't add up.
If you will recall, I was able to figure out the person behind the algorithms was one named Nick Pickles, twatter COO. He was called into a hearing in March of '18 over in the UK over "hate speech" where he said they were developing an algorithm to fight against the issue.

BREAKING: Assembly Speaker Robin Vos says he is thinking of taking power away from Gov.-elect Tony Evers even before he is sworn in.

This would be done in a lame duck session sometime over the next 2 months.

Senate Majority Ldr. Scott Fitzgerald hasn't said if he is on board.
Fitzgerald is willing to consider this, per a spokesman:

"He has said previously that he is open to it, and plans to discuss the topic with Senate Republican caucus members tomorrow."
Vos on whether he can get along with @Tony4WI:

"If he chooses to poke Republicans in the eye, he will end up getting very little of what he wants. So that’s a choice I can’t make for Tony Evers. He’s got to make it for himself."

@davidfrum @TheAtlantic This has nothing to do with enforcement. The president is claimig the immigrants coming to our country are some kind of ‘liberal plot’ or somehow associated with the Democratic party - this is a lie. Democrats want border enforcement too - we just don’t think a wall makes sense.
@davidfrum @TheAtlantic You of all people should recognize that this entire story is a propaganda piece being used by the President & his alt-reich pals to create a kind of xenophobic fury in order to get more votes for the midterms. There’s a discussion re enforcement but this is a false narrative.
@davidfrum @TheAtlantic The majority of Dem voters are in favor of border enforcement- it’s just not high on the list of priorities given the current state of our country/ politics. Democratic leaders have voted for stronger border enforcement very recently & have been pushing for immigration reforms.
