  • Wisconsin’s 402-Year Veto Rewrite

    04/19/2025 3:08:03 PM PDT · by Brilliant · 14 replies
    The latest 4-3 doozy from the Wisconsin Supreme Court is hard to believe. The Legislature passed a budget to annually increase the limit on how much tax revenue school districts may raise, by $325 per pupil, “for the 2023-24 school year and the 2024-25 school year.” Gov. Tony Evers abused his “partial veto” power, deleting words and an individual hyphen, making that text say “for 2023-2425.” Meaning . . . an annual tax increase authorized for the next 402 years? Sure, why not, Justice Jill Karofsky writes for the liberal majority. The state constitution says the Governor may approve appropriation...
  • Far-Left State Election official Caught in Absentee Ballot Fraud Sting, Found to Have Changed Ballots

    Concluding a case that rocked the nation, a Milwaukee jury convicted former election official Kimberly Zapata of misconduct for obtaining fake absentee ballots. She was initially charged in 2022 with a count of felony misconduct and three counts of election fraud, and was found guilty of all charges. Zapata used her position at the Milwaukee Election Commission to request ballots under fake names and Social Security numbers, and then cast them for a candidate of her choice. As background, Republicans have been sounding the alarm about voter fraud since the 2020 election, and despite the mounting evidence, the Democrats and...

    Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said on Sunday said he’s questioning President Trump’s “endgame” in his approach to tariffs, saying the ongoing “volatility” isn’t good for businesses. “One thing I learned in the private sector is unpredictability can work pretty well in the negotiation, but the private sector — businesses want certainty. They want stability. They don’t like to see volatility,” Johnson said in an interview on NewsNation’s “The Hill Sunday.” “And, so, I’ve just been questioning exactly what’s the endgame here? What’s the strategy?” he continued. Johnson called himself an “unabashed free trader” and touted what he sees as the...
  • Why Trump-hating child 'murdered his mother and stepfather' at family's stunning $900,000 Wisconsin home

    A child murdered his mother and stepfather at the family's stunning $900,000 home because he thought it would help give him 'clout' to kill Donald Trump. Nikita Casap, 17, was arrested in March after he allegedly killed his parents at their home in Waukesha, Wisconsin, then fled the state in their car. Prosecutors said the teenager shot and killed mom Tatiana Casap, 35, and stepdad Donald Mayer, 51, on February 11 before fleeing the scene and leaving their bodies to decompose inside their home. However, they were not discovered until police performed a welfare check at the family's sprawling home...

  • North Carolina Supreme Court Race in Turmoil: Democrat’s 700-Vote Victory Now in Jeopardy as 65,000 Voters Ordered to Prove Eligibility or Be Removed from Count

    What was hailed by Democrats as a narrow 734-vote victory for Allison Riggs in the 2024 North Carolina Supreme Court race is now spiraling into electoral chaos, as a court ruling has cast doubt over tens of thousands of ballots that could flip the outcome in favor of conservative challenger Judge Jefferson Griffin. In a stunning decision filed Thursday, the North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled that approximately 65,000 ballots—cast by voters with incomplete registration information, missing photo identification, or submitted by individuals who have never lived in North Carolina—may be invalid under state and federal election law. The 2-1...

    A day after a bruising defeat in Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election, Badger State conservatives were mired in the usual questions, second-guessing, what ifs and — in some corners — recriminations that come with big losses. And make no mistake, Tuesday’s loss was a big one for so many reasons. Far-left Dane County Judge Susan Crawford defeated conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel by 10 percentage points (55% to 45%). In historically high turnout for a spring election in which 2.3 million people voted, Crawford drew nearly 230,000 more votes than Schimel. And for conservatives across the country, the price of...

Democrats fought hard against this, presumably so they can CHEAT,” the 45th and 47th president said in a post to Truth Social. “This is a BIG WIN FOR REPUBLICANS, MAYBE THE BIGGEST WIN OF THE NIGHT.

    Wisconsin voters have overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment to enshrine the state’s voter ID requirement. The amendment passed with approximately 70% support, reflecting a broad consensus among Wisconsinites on the importance of safeguarding elections. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that on the ballot is Question 1, a critical referendum to amend the Wisconsin State Constitution to require VOTER ID — a commonsense measure backed by overwhelming majorities of Americans, yet fiercely opposed by the far Left and their media allies. A “yes” vote on Question 1 supports adding the voter ID requirement to the Wisconsin Constitution, reinforcing the current law....

    The Hamtramck clerk alleged pervasive ballot trafficking in the city’s elections. Meanwhile, Michigan’s AG met with a fraud suspect. Voter fraud has been taking place in the Detroit-area suburb of Hamtramck “for years,” potentially affecting “hundreds of ballots,” the city clerk told The Federalist. She wrote Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel weeks ago imploring action, but heard “nothing” in response. “That’s the only thing I can do, since there’s nobody else that helps me put a stop to them breaking the law,” Hamtramck City Clerk Rana Faraj told The Federalist. “It’s been ongoing for years, and nobody does anything about...

    While Wisconsin's Supreme Court race is officially nonpartisan, Democrats and Republicans have both picked sides and are pouring fortunes into their efforts. As the votes are tallied Tuesday night, the ability to claim political momentum amid the upheaval of President Donald Trump’s second term will be on the line. What is being tested, though, is not so much whether large numbers of voters have changed their minds in the five months since the presidential election. When it comes to Trump himself, Wisconsin is an especially polarized state, with three straight presidential elections decided by less than 1 point. More likely,...

    The world’s richest man is dying to figure out how lawmakers on Capitol Hill got “strangely wealthy” despite their comparatively modest public salaries. Speaking at a town hall in Wisconsin Sunday night, Elon Musk suggested that his team at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will investigate how certain members of Congress have achieved generational wealth. One attendee at the town hall had asked Musk if DOGE had uncovered evidence of funds wired from the US Agency for International Development (USAID) to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). “They’ll [the government]...
