I was the reporter for the press pool this afternoon when Kamala Harris, with David Crowley, launched canvassers from the Dems office on Milwaukee's northwest side. A "Women for Crowley" event featuring the former VP is underway and there is an NAACP townhall later this evening milwaukeecourier.com/news/20…

This is what happens when Tom Tiffany does everything Trump wants.

David Crowley is the most qualified to be Governor because Tom Tiffany copies everything he does except not tucking in a packers jersey and holding hot dogs hostage.
The @TomTiffanyWI campaign meltdown checklist: âś… Tuck Packers jersey into jeans âś… Hold a dog hostage for a photo âś… Copy opponents bus tour but in an RV

Never heard so many GOP excuses on high gas prices. Suddenly feds can’t influence it, while oil companies profit. Trump plans to escalate war—if they can’t cut gas prices now, why think they will after November? Republicans especially Tom Tiffany have sold us out to billionaires

A playbook from the right we're seeing more and more often: - Bogus complaint is filed - Bogus complaint becomes "news" through a bad-faith actor in right-wing media - Campaigns run ads based on the bogus complaint - The complaint never actually goes anywhere because it was never legitimate to begin with, it gets dismissed and quietly goes away But the intended damage had already been done. It was never about any actual problems or any actual accountability, it only existed to serve the campaign. We need to be more vigilant about calling these ginned-up "complaints" what they actually are: Wasting public resources on blatant media manipulation.

Common Sense for Tom Tiffany & Bryan Steil is voting for federal tax breaks for data centers that hike our utility bills and harm the environment—then say that they will hold Data Centers accountable.
Affordability, accountability, and common sense. Get out and cast your ballot!

For 15 years, Tom Tiffany & GOP legislators underfunded local govs like Milwaukee County. When we nearly went bankrupt, they let us raise the sales tax 0.4% instead of returning more of our tax dollars. Now they blame David Crowley, who fixed their mess.

Tom Tiffany has been open to toll roads. As a State Senator and member of the Joint Finance Committee, he voted for a multi-million-dollar toll road study.
WATCH: Not only will @DavidCCrowley raise your taxes, but he'll pile on INCREASED vehicle registration fees, title fees, and TOLLS on Wisconsin roads. How does this help with affordability? David Crowley won't stop raising taxes and fees until we're just like Illinois.

Wied chose to vote for Trump’s war in Iran and higher gas prices 6 times.

So much for “merit”: Scott Walker calls Governor Wes Moore a hypocrite for not backing a GOP candidate just because she’s Black. Her name is Winsome Earle-Sears—mention her name next time.
What a hypocrite. @iamwesmoore goes on @ABC and complains about being the 3rd African American elected Governor after campaigning against the Lt. Gov. who would have been the 1st African American Governor of VA. What a fraud. @jonkarl should have called him on it.

Tom Tiffany declined to interview with Wisconsin Public Radio following last week’s debate. He clearly still doesn’t have a plan to fund all of his campaign promises.

Wisconsin Republicans have controlled the legislature for 15 years but did nothing to fix rising property taxes, utility costs, or affordability despite complaining. They control the purse strings! Nobody else! It’s time for new leadership across the board.

Another reminder why today’s Republican Party is unfit for office: They weaponized their elected positions to target political opponents just because right‑wing media told them to. This was a waste of government resources and time because Jung’s team scheduled social media posts.

Key points why the @WiStateJournal endorsed David Crowley over Tom Tiffany! David has: âś…More independent & better vision for prosperity âś…Delivered results incl. largest drop in long-term homelessness âś…Is more likely to regulate & hold data centers accountable

The same people blaming a 0.4% Milwaukee County sales tax for affordability issues are telling me to get a Costco membership for complaining that gas is $4.69/gal.

Wisconsin Republican Party Chair does photo op with the US Senator who refuses to ban members of Congress from stock trading because it would hurt his financial well-being as a multi-millionaire. But he was happy to cut a trillion dollars in healthcare.
Back on the campaign trail together with Sen @RonJohnsonWI. Great first stop in Pewaukee for the @TomTiffanyWI Bus Tour! Election in ten days, gotta take it to the streets! @WisGOP #wipolitics #WIGov #MAGA
