Please give her a follow... we need her follower count to go up, especially when the Wisconsin Supreme Court race coming up on April 7, 2026 is really important.
We have to get through November elections first (and the December #TN07 Special after that).

But come 2026 our first priority will be to elect Chris Taylor for Wisconsin Supreme Court on April 7th.

She only has 32 followers on Bluesky.

Let's get her more.

Follow her @christaylorwi.bsky.social!

In addition to creating a joyous event, Zohran Mamdani just showed the stupidity of Fox News's "Crime is so bad in New York City, people are afraid to go out in the street or take the subway!!!"

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

This bill was never only about eviscerating social services or enriching oligarchs, bad as that is. It’s also about using state power to build a private police force for the fascists—and spreading fear and destroying solidarity. Being brave and building solidarity is a big part of how we fight back.
The debt, deportation, and death bill has passed. Congress further decimates care work to fund violence work.

Vital services eviscerated and ICE becomes the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency ever known. It hasn’t been sold this way, but it’s a massive public jobs program for fascists.

It’s amazing how fast they can build a concentration camp: “Alligator Alcatraz”— but they can’t manage to fix a levee, fund a hospital, or get clean water to poor communities.

What's wild is that if four GOP reps defected, they'd become goddamned folk heroes. Everyone remembers McCain's thumbs down, and even people who HATED him and his policies have grudging respect for that.

We should all be saluting the Senate Parliamentarian who is defending the rules vs. lawless, rapacious Senate R's. Knocking out a host of reprehensible policy items that do not comply with reconcilliation rules. It is not an easy task. This is what it means to take responsibility for our democracy.

IMO people going to immigration hearings should be accompanied by friends in ICE outfits to look like they're already in custody--go to their hearings, determine the outcome, then leave with "ICE," the friends who will see them safely home.
