The good people of this country are prepared (and proven) to risk their very lives to defeat their corrupt republican asses. No fucking prisoners.

We need to wipe the slate clean. Get a super majority in the Senate next time and sweep out the garbage! Oh, but I want Moscow Mitch to lose! So Very Badly.

They are heroes!

Some stood in line until 1:30 a.m.! No matter what shit the Trumpublicans threw at them, they stayed. 180 POLLING PLACES CUT TO 5!!! People having to bus around town to vote.

They're fucking heroes!

crap about people and forced them to vote in dire circumstances, putting voters at risk. Nice.

Every republican in WI that supported this (the 'forced vote') should lose their right to vote. Putting people in harms' way to gain political power? Something is very wrong here.

it's many citizens who have become outraged by the things they've seen over the past few years. Remember the blue wave? I think we'll see another one in November! In the past few years, women especially became outraged at the way comrade donnie treats women & they were more outraged by the inhumane treatment of immigrant children who had done nothing wrong, except crossing the border & asking for refugee status! More recently the democrats have revealed mountains of evidence for his impeachment & yet republicans just couldn't bring themselves to do their constitutional duty!

Now we have a major health crisis that was foreseen by anyone who was paying attention & many pleaded with him to do something about it but he wasn't convinced. I think he didn't do anything about it because he believed, like everything else that he could lie about it & blame it on the dems & that was all the management he thought it required!

Now all of a sudden, he's looking at the calendar & realizes that he'd better do something fast if he wants another term. So he wants to force people to go back to work before the crisis is solved where many more people are likely to get sick & die!



Thank you Wisconsin voters for showing the GOP that we're not falling for their lies & cheating any more!! You risked your lives to show them that you still believe in democracy. We are all very grateful for your selfless courage!!
