'My kids deserve to eat': Wisconsin officials fail to get food aid to thousands of poor children bit.ly/321kLla
Wisconsin has failed to send food assistance to tens of thousands of poor children who are supposed to be getting extra help because they have been learning at home during the coronavirus pandemic.
Under a federal program created last spring, the families of students who qualify for subsidized meals in Wisconsin schools are supposed to receive $6.82 to cover food for every day their children are not in school buildings and are instead learning virtually.

.@RepGrothman initially told me he was unworried about the storming of the Capitol but later noted his office does not overlook the Capitol and said he was appalled by what's going on.

“It’s an embarrassment to our republic that people would behave this way,” he said.
He said @realDonaldTrump should intervene by speaking to the country on television.
“I think President Trump should be exerting more leadership,” he said. “I strongly believe he should get on TV and address the crowd.”
Grothmann criticized Trump and others for suggesting his supporters could get Congress to change the results of the election.

“I have been critical of expectations being raised by people including the president as to what will happen today,” he said.

.@GovEvers said he may try to legalize recreational marijuana next year to raise money for the state.

He would be sure of facing stiff resistance from Republicans who control the Legislature if he did that.

.@judgekarofsky comes out swinging in arguments over lawsuit Trump brought over the election in Wisconsin's two most populous counties.

"This lawsuit, Mr. Troupis, smacks of racism," Karofsky tells Trump attorney Jim Troupis.
.@justicedallet notes Trump is challenging an election form that has been in use for more than a decade. That form was used when Trump won the state in 2016.

"What I’m hearing you say then is really the form was fine in 2016 when it helped the president to win," Dallet says.

Thursday could prove crucial in Trump's elections lawsuits in Wisconsin bit.ly/2JVklYd
Today's hearing is going slowly.

After 30 minutes of technical troubles and a discussion of how to handle witnesses, the court is taking a 20-minute break.

After the break, U.S. District Judge Brett Ludwig will likely decide how much testimony to allow.
After a two-hour break, the court is back.

Judge Brett Ludwig tells the attorneys that handing over the state's electoral votes to state lawmakers would likely be the most remarkable ruling in the history of the judiciary.
