#Wisconsin State Senator Sarah Keyeski firing up the crowd at the monthly @columbiacowidems.bsky.social meeting! @wistatesenkeyeski.bsky.social @wisdems.org

From #Wisconsin State Senator Sarah Keyeski: "I have been contacted by local constituents with questions, concerns, sentiments of support and opposition towards data centers being built in our district..." @wistatesenkeyeski.bsky.social @columbiacowidems.bsky.social @wisdems.org

Sarah Godlewski, current #Wisconsin Sec of State and running for Lt Gov, speaking to Columbia County Dems today at our new office in Portage! @columbiacowidems.bsky.social @sarahgodlewski.bsky.social @wistatesenkeyeski.bsky.social @wisdems.org

Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.” A 16yo American living in fear of the Trump regime’s ICE goons terrorizing brown people pleads for help.

The truly maddening thing is that, unlike when I was a young man in science and the materials and engineering just weren’t there yet, the future is *right there.* The problem is *solved*. What’s holding us back is not just greed, but this bizarre nostalgia, an obsession with petro- masculinity.

"Voters brought their humanity to the ballot box today… to resoundingly rebuke inhumanity." Sarah Keyeski, #Wisconsin State Senator @wistatesenkeyeski.bsky.social @wisdems.org @columbiacowidems.bsky.social

A democratic sweep was the perfect way to honor Dick Cheney's death. Well done, everyone. See you tomorrow.

“This afternoon, as a member of the Senate Committee on Education, I attended an informational hearing reviewing the Department of Public Instruction’s process of investigating sexual misconduct and grooming allegations in Wisconsin public schools...” @wistatesenkeyeski.bsky.social

A family of 4 in Rep. Tony Wied’s district could see a $24,569 increase to their ACA premium. #ACA #GovShutdown #HealthCare

“For every meal a food bank provides, SNAP provides nine. We can’t replace that,” said one director. “We were not built to do this.” Let that sink in. Cutting SNAP doesn’t just starve families, it breaks the last line of defense against hunger.

Republicans will ignore the numbers bc they can’t math and have lost all common sense.

“We don’t have illegal aliens… the legal term for my people were slaves….” 🚨This is what leadership looks and sounds like in 2025.✊🏼

Columbia County Dems support the initiative to help working families in the County. Thank you @wistatesenkeyeski.bsky.social !

Proud to call #Wisconsin State Senator Sarah Keyeski my friend & my representative! She’s putting heart and soul into her work! “I didn’t run for political office to become someone. I brought who I already am TO politics.” @wistatesenkeyeski.bsky.social @wisdems.org @columbiacowidems.bsky.social

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

A real hero! #nokings

If you’ve not read John Scalzi’s Agent to the Stars, do it now. As a long time fan, I’m sad it took me this long to find out about it and read it. It’s a fantastic story that will surprise and move you. @scalzi.com

What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Musk—or refuse to fight back—will be swept out of office.

If you're one of those "where are the protests" because the news has been ignoring them the past two months, there are 25,000 people gathered in DC today, and 20+ blocks full of people in Manhattan, and that's just two cities. The protests have been happening; you're just being lied to again.

Huge turnout for #HandsOff event in Madison, #Wisconsin!

Remember how many of us posted & talked about the dangers of Project 2025? Then, people didn’t vote & apparently didn’t believe us. Here’s a thread of graphics I made of Project 2025 plans that have already come to fruition. Feel free to use with an I told you so. 🧵1

Nothing better than some sleeping cats!

Wonderfully cold morning in #Wisconsin!

🧵 We need to discuss something… something that’s very important for democrats to understand if we want to win elections in the future. It’s about Palestine, and it’s about fuckery and propaganda. This is a highly charged subject, but it’s too important not to talk about. Walk with me.

BREAKING: President Biden will become the first President in American history to register job growth in every single month during his Presidency. This is huge.

“Our ancestors did more, with less, against worse. Lock in.” - Olúfémi O. Táíwò @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social

Trump posting a AI generated image of his imaginary 100lbs-too-light 50-year-old self at 4000 meters in the Alps, IN A BUSINESS SUIT, staring at a mountain on the border of Italy and Switzerland, thinking it's CANADA. This is the ignorant booger-eating weirdo fantasy MAGA future Republicans want.

When Trump tariffs crater the economy, when grocery prices skyrocket, when your home value plummets, I hope you still remember how mad you were at Joe for pardoning Hunter.

From now until April 1, 2025, WisDems will be all gas, no brakes on spreading the word to all Wisconsin residents about Susan Crawford, and why she’s the best choice for the state Supreme Court. You can be a part of that effort. Volunteer here: wisdems.org/volunteer

To do that, we have one more obstacle in overcoming Scott Walker's disgraceful anti-worker, anti-democratic legacy. We must elect Judge Susan Crawford to the Wisconsin Supreme Court this April #WIpolitics @wisdems.bsky.social wisdems.org/volunteer www.crawfordforwi.com

How to cope with an increasingly turbulent world? Currently, I'm cuddling with Mabel & avoiding reality entirely.

Trump was already going to be a lawless, dictatorial asshole whose administration is marked by cronyism, graft, fraud, racism, misogyny, hate, fear, conspiracy theories, fascism, and adject failure. Biden's actions have absolutely NO impact on that inevitability... 1/

Looking forward to hearing Wikler’s specific ideas for change (WE NEED BIG CHANGES) in the Party, including investing in local races, moving away from TV ads, and focusing more on social media, where the people are—but his statement is a promising start. 📌 Ben Wikler announces run for DNC Chair

This is really worth a read to understand the dangers of Kash Patel as FBI Director www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

If we’re going to take on Trump, Republican extremists, and move our country forward, the Democratic Party needs to be stronger. I'm running for Chair of the Democratic National Committee to unite the party, fight everywhere, and win. Join me. 🧵

Standard predatory American Businessman Serial CEOs swoop in, eliminate a bunch of divisions, layoff a couple thousand workers, pump the stock prices, and cash out with a huge bonus. Then they do it again somewhere else. And again. And Again. It's not about the company, it's about that bonus.

Last time Trump imposed tariffs on China They retaliated against American soybean farmers-who then lost all their Chinese buyers And the farmers had to get bailed out by subsidies So not only were the tariffs an abject failure They wound up costing the American people $23 billion in subsidies
