if you live in Wisconsin, and he is your Rep, read this. He is attached to Trump's hip. And he doesn't hold meetings for his constituents.

Hey, this is actually a pleasant surprise on Crowley’s part!

(I mean 20 immediately would be better, but still, I’d get a raise. Plus, it would be a legislative challenge right now)

Well said. Enjoy your divided country, your Iran war, your high gas prices, your high grocery prices, your high consumer goods, your high insurance, your measles outbreak, your depleted military weapons, and your braindead incompetent president.

Tom Tiffany = Scott Walker

Anyone else notice that TT is running the exact same campaign playbook Scott Walker ran back in the day? Walker was just a simple man, ham sandwich in a brown paper bag for lunch, Kohl's cash-using, one of us. Tiffany is just a humble farm boy, with relatives made out of actual human flesh, mom's keeping an eye on it, you betcha!

Would be great to see WisDems highlight this shitty parallel in an ad, because it leads us to the same place Walker did - he's a puppet for the worst far-right groups in politics, and Wisconsinites will suffer once this Trojan horse gets through the gates.

Polling firm closes down after it faked Hong, Bass polls

Median Strategies, the company that released polls showing Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) and former Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong ahead with wide margins in their respective races, announced Monday it has closed.

A message on the company's website reads that it has "concluded its polling project and will not publish additional polls."

"All previously published polling releases have been withdrawn and should not be cited or treated as genuine polling data," the message read. "Median Strategies was created as a short-term social experiment examining how purported polling information could enter and spread through the political information ecosystem without independent verification."

The company first released a poll showing Bass with a 12-point lead over Los Angeles City Council member Nithya Raman, who will face off against Bass in the November election. The poll in question cited the responses of 560 Angelenos, with a 4.1 percent margin of error. The next poll showed Hong with a 20-point lead in her race, which she lost last week.
