How did the Wisconsin Supreme Court race unfold?
MAGA Republicans are not exactly coping well with their massive defeat in Wisconsin for the vacant Supreme Court seat. As we called the race last night, Judge Susan Crawford The Democratic-aligned pro-democracy candidate went on to defeat the MAGA doge candidate, Brad Schimel, who was propped up, Schimel was, by tens of millions of MAGA, Musk, doge money, and the entire MAGA machinery.
The pro-democracy candidate, Judge Crawford, a law and order no-nonsense judge, said, A former prosecutor went on to win that critical race in the vacant Supreme Court seat, tipping the scales of the Supreme Court so that the Democrats will have control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
And it's a critical victory because, as I mentioned before, the gerrymandering cases before the court that the MAGA Republicans trying to unlawfully gerrymander Wisconsin will be as such a That now you'll have, I think, a accurate map in Wisconsin, a real map, what it always should be. And I think that will also mean less seats for the MAGA Republican Congress members.
So the MAGA Republicans trying to justify this loss after pouring all of their resources. And it's clearly a repudiation of Trump and Musk and Doge. But they're refusing to admit that. So they brought on CNN, MAGA Republican, former governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker, who's just been an absolute disaster. And so he tries to say this isn't about Musk. It's not about his money.
Can we talk about George Soros and J.D. Pritzker and Reid Hoffman? And it's like, what are you talking about? Those people didn't give anywhere near what the money that Elon Musk was doing. Elon Musk was handing out million dollar checks to people and telling people, if you post photos of yourselves next to voting locations, but don't get too close because it may be illegal.
that he would just give you $20 or $100 or whatever. Many people talking about how Musk's voting pay-for-play scheme itself could potentially be criminal. Here's Scott Walker on CNN. Watch this.
uh so do you think that was compelling i mean it's interesting tactic it's a little saul linsky-esque in the sense that you've got george soros and jd pritzker and reid hoffman and all these billionaires who've spent far more than must did in this and now pointing say wait a minute i don't think they spent on this they didn't well collectively if you look at all the money from outside that was given to her again 77 of it came from out of state only 15 came from shimmel and collectively
a number of the analysis. I'm just saying like in terms of the money from individually, if you look at the whole outside money that came from out of the state, it's clearly you don't think it was a referendum on Musk at all, though. Oh, I think it had a part. I think a lot of different issues.
I think then you had all of the kind of right wing panelists like Jennings on CNN. And, you know, he's like, you know, actually, I think the Schimel campaign was really underfunded. And, you know, I think Elon Musk helped out. I think Elon Musk gave this a boost. That's what happened. That's what the MAGA Republicans and their propaganda mouthpieces like Scott Jennings are saying right now.
