Raised in Wisconsin’s poorest zip code and once homeless, David Crowley rose above hardship to deliver change statewide—now he’s the next Governor of the State of Wisconsin. Anything is possible in America! #HistoryMade

I’m so happy for @RebeccaforWI and @MBermanWI! They are going to serve Wisconsin well and deliver for working people!
Majority makers! Pretty dang surreal day.

Tom Tiffany ran a campaign that spread lies to smear his opponent, dodged his record, and refused to hold Trump’s corrupt administration accountable while everyday people couldn’t afford to live. That is why he lost, he was part of the problem!
Tom Tiffany ran a strong campaign. They were on message, they were well organized, and they had adequate resources. Had he run in 2022, he would have won. This election was part of a national wave.

ICE detained a Wisconsin State Trooper. That’s how incompetent they have become under the Trump Administration.

Georgia Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms says she will not cooperate with immigration enforcement:
“I will certainly use whatever power we have…to push back on these issues related to immigration…When I was Mayor of Atlanta, I ended our cities’ contract with ICE.”

Stephen Miller is a dangerous xenophobe and reckless extremist who has American blood on his hands.
His presence in government should be eradicated like a malignant tumor.
Fire him today.

This goes to show that Republicans never wanted to empower Black and Latino communities in Milwaukee. They just wanted your votes.
Why is the party in a good spot? Well, we have a Black + Hispanic Community Center and hosted a Cinco de Mayo celebration!
How did that do with actual voters? 75.8 % Dem in Milwaukee County

They did the same thing after Obama got elected. That’s how we got Michael Steele. #WeGotOneToo #BlackFriend
Senator Julian Bradley was always qualified and ready for legislative caucus leadership; it’s a shame it took Republicans losing the legislature for him to be elevated.
Stop only recognizing Black leadership when it’s politically convenient.

Two days after Wisconsin's media swooned over David Crowley becoming the state's first black Governor, they completely ignored Republicans electing Julian Bradley as the first black leader in the State Legislature. Weird how that works, huh? heartlandpost.com/history-was-ma…

ICE is detaining a Wisconsin State Trooper.
Trooper Carel Aaron Van Der Merwe is being held at the ICE detention facility in Dodge County, Wisconsin.
His attorney, Marc Christopher, says the trooper holds a valid work authorization.

David Crowley won 85.1% of the vote in the city of Milwaukee, the highest share for any statewide candidate this century — higher than Barack Obama (79% in '08), higher than Herb Kohl (81% in '06).

As a gun owner, I find it both scary and irresponsible that a party’s first move after losing an election is to tell everyone to buy guns.
If you live in Wisconsin and are Pro-2A you should apply for Conceal Carry Weapon(CCW) permit.
If you have been through Hunter safety it’s very easy. All you need to do is go online and pay a small fee.
You must be 21 years old.
The democrats may repeal conceal carry come next year.
Also, fun fact, Wisconsin is an open carry state for anyone over 18.
Prepare accordingly.

A Black Wisconsin governor
A powerful Black caucus in the legislature
A Black Milwaukee mayor
A majority Black common council
A Black sheriff
A Black police chief
A Black chief judge
Meaningful change is expected.
And a Black press will be there to cover it every step of the way.

And the Republican plan was what? Slashing BadgerCare and giving tax breaks to billionaires.
I would wholeheartedly welcome working with you to bring down the cost of living for Wisconsinites and Americans everywhere, starting with ending the costly war in Iran that has Wisconsin farmers paying record prices for diesel.

Make no mistake: This is all about political power. Democrats have no plans to make life better for you.
