Ron Johnson’s big opening section of WISGOP convention is complaining about his opposition to adding a day off for Juneteenth, then coming to Milwaukee’s 50th annual Juneteenth celebration—and getting booed. Image
Johnson angry that national press reported on him getting booed rather than the earlier interaction in which someone selling him cake was friendly to her customer. Clear instance of media bias.
Johnson’s beef with the insurrection was that it disrupted a “very important debate about unelected judges usurping the duty of state legislatures” in the 2020 election (v slight paraphrase, worth checking the tape on wiseye.org)

THREAD: Yesterday, Republicans in the state legislature passed bills limiting access to absentee ballots and attacking Wisconsinites’ right to vote.
jsonline.com/story/news/pol…
The bills passed by Wisconsin Republicans are an attack on voting rights and an attempt to make our elections less inclusive. Republicans know that the 2020 election was free, fair, and accessible, as was confirmed and reconfirmed by state & federal courts and election officials.
Voters chose, Biden won, and Trump lost. But instead of recognizing that the problem was their candidate, Republicans decided that the problem was democracy itself.

The Juneteenth bill signed into law by President Biden and passed by the Democratic Congress celebrates a holiday already observed by millions—now made official nationwide thanks to activists like Opal Lee. npr.org/2021/06/17/100…
Also celebrating today: a final line of attack in the GOP’s long war on the ACA collapsed at the Supreme Court. A relief and a tribute to all who fought to pass and defend health care—from President Obama to Speaker Pelosi to millions of grassroots activists.
