With Susan Crawfords victory, the liberals will hold the majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court until 2028 at the earliest. The next two races are conservative justices in 2026 and 2027.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

DOGE's next target is the CFPB, which has returned $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011.
Trump just fired its pro-consumer director and had his Treasury Secretary, a hedge fund manager, halt the CFPB's work.
This is a coup against the American people.
