Unfortunately, Walter, it looks like we are truly at the beginning of the “end-game.” The frustrating thing about it is that only a small percentage of the population cares, actually the majority are not even spending a moment paying attention. So how do we get everyone to pay attention? We do need a leader, maybe Senator Booker? Maybe AOC? Bernie? And one or two messages that can be repeated over and over. With passion! You are doing great work - keep it up - this ultimately will need to shift to sanity, fairness and integrity.

Thanks Robert! Yes, I think a champion will emerge. Pete is another name that's out there. We'll see. I think when the real struggles start to hit then you'll see a response. Already there are cracks in the regime!

Even a hint of buying a vote two years ago would have sent republicans into hissy fits. Remember what fits took place when people were giving rides to vote. Now it’s ok to flash big money around. If that isn’t self explanatory. So the judges don’t want to deal with it, surprise surprise.

Republicans/Trump skirt the law. They frequently disobey the spirit of the law, but not in such a way that it's clear they have actually broken the law. And, all of this is something that hasn't been done before. Laws take too long to put into place.

We need to start thinking seriously about what happens next. This current political structure is unlikely to survive without collapsing into tyranny. We need a survivorship plan. We need the Regional Withholding Tax Alliance. Start sequestering federal tax at the well-head.

It’s unbelievable how elections can be bought now days! People only see instant gains and ignore the long term outcomes. If Wisconsin voters want to sell their souls to Billionaires agenda, then let them. FAFO. That is hard way but only way. We the other people are fighting and resisting! Since we don’t have million dollars, only our action will do. Albeit, a powerful one. Thx for your post.

And after all that, it did not work. Elon's millions did not buy the Wisconsin election. :D That has to be the best deterrent of all.

Our State tried but the true patriots of the judgeships all recused themselves since they already had chosen Susan. You never hear of any Republican doing that. Hence the outcome.
