Wisconsin Democrats have come out in full force to stand up to a Trump administration that wants to turn us into a surveillance state. From Winona to Milwaukee, to Ashland to Baraboo, we’re standing up for the basic freedoms and rights enshrined in our constitution.

Shopping this fabulous destash is what demolishes my own destashing efforts each year… I can’t wait!!! 🧶
A sneak peek at just a handful of the almost 650 listings ready for the Destash4Good mega auction coming 2/1/26-2/13/26. There is $27k worth of goodies up for grabs with most starting at $1. The vast majority (probably will end up 80-85%) of sales proceeds donated to@lalgbtcenter.bsky.social

Niall doing amazing work with street dogs in Thailand #dogsofbluesky
🛌 He’s never had a bed in his life

😬 He was terrified of us humans at first trying to run away

✂️ 2 months build up to a massive operation her had to endure.

Just look at him today. No leash and walks voluntarily back into his little safe place ❤️

Donald Trump promised to lower costs for Americans on Day 1.

A year later, families can tell you that is just not happening.

Now seeking test knitters for the Frankfooter Socks 🌭🧦 these beauties are knit from the cuff down and feature a three-stranded hot dog colorwork motif on the legs. Who doesn’t want a pair of dogs for their dogs, am I right?

This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)

According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago.

8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois.

And yet Trump is sending troops here.

Over 30,000 of Tony Wied's constituents are at risk of losing health care under the GOP’s Big Ugly Bill that he voted for. Wied does not care if his constituents have health care, and he won't even face them in person to tell them that.
