Dems Fight Voter ID Amendment In Wisconsin Despite 7 In 10 Voters Supporting It

On April 1, Wisconsin voters will have the opportunity to enshrine a voter ID measure into the state’s constitution. 

Voters will be asked whether the state’s founding document should be amended to require voters “present valid photographic identification verifying their identity in order to vote in any election,” with this requirement being “subject to exceptions which may be established by law.” In a recent poll among registered Wisconsin voters conducted by The Marquette Law School, 73 percent of respondents said they support the proposed voter ID amendment. In addition, more recent national polls have found that at least 80 percent of Americans support voter ID.

But despite voter ID policy popularity both statewide and nationally, Democrats are fighting the referendum soon to appear on the Wisconsin ballot.

The ballot proposal was approved by the Republican-led Assembly “with no support from Democrats,” CBS News reported in January. While there are presently no legal challenges to the current voter ID laws already in place in the state, “Democrats said photo ID requirements are often enforced unfairly, making it more difficult for people of color, the disabled and poor people to vote,” according to the outlet. They also “argued that lawmakers should focus instead on other issues such as gun control, clean water, affordable housing, and expanding access to child care.”

Multiple left-leaning voter activist groups have also come out against the proposal. Souls To The Polls Wisconsin, a purportedly “left-of-center” get out the vote group, called the referendum “harmful” in a social media post last month.

“This newest amendment proposal would enshrine Wisconsin’s strict voter ID law in the state constitution–disenfranchising thousands of eligible voters and limiting the court’s ability to protect our voting rights,” the post reads.

The executive director of Wisconsin Democracy Campaign (WDC), Nick Ramos, similarly suggested to a local NBC affiliate that the referendum would “make it harder for people to vote.” (According to conservative watchdog InfluenceWatch, WDC has a history of “target[ting] the financial supporters of Republican and conservative policy leaders” and pursues policy goals “decidedly left-of-center.”)

In addition, the Wisconsin chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), a “nearly 100-year-old left-leaning activism organization,” according to InfluenceWatch, issued a statement in February urging voters to vote “no” on the measure, arguing that voter ID laws “disenfranchise” voters. The ACLU of Wisconsin Union along with more than 20 other organizations also signed onto a joint letter opposing the measure last month. WDC and Souls to the Polls Wisconsin are also among the signers.

WA state city council appoints trans OnlyFans content creator with cannibalism fetish to fill vacant seat

A transgender OnlyFans adult content creator, who has a cannibalism fetish, was unanimously appointed to fill a vacant seat on the Lynnwood City Council in Washington state.Jessica Ann Roberts, 32, born Neil Vincent Roberts, has posted on social media about having an uncontrollable desire to impregnate women and eat them.

Roberts had an OnlyFans account under the username @jaroberts1501, which included 12 videos and 63 photographs of sexually explicit content. According to the account bio, Roberts is described as “a bisexual transwoman with itty bitty titties and a big girl cock.

Outrage as The View guest suggests Trump voters have under-formed brains

A top Democrat has declared Americans only voted for Trump because the US is going through its ‘angry teenage years’ – and that their brains hadn’t been ‘fully formed’ enough to vote for Kamala Harris.

Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin made the remarks on The View Tuesday, during talks surrounding her party’s response to the president’s agenda.

She insulted some 77,284,118 citizens in the process – days after delivering the Democratic response to Trump’s speech to Congress last week.

Slotkin, 48, did so just two months into her tenure in the US Senate, after beating Republican Mike Rogers in a heated race.

Flanked by hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farrah Griffin, the progressive started off by saying people in her state voted for both Trump and her – before speaking on behalf of the entire county.

‘But I don’t think there’s anyone who feels like what’s going on right now is normal,’ she said, on a morning when the economy was still reeling from Trump’s tariffs.

‘Even if you voted for Trump – right?’ she went on, as the panelists nodded in approval.

She went on to offer her patronizing prognosis, eight weeks into Trump’s presidency.

Musk: Democrats “Don’t Want Waste And Fraud To Be Turned Off”

During a Fox Business interview, DOGE head Elon Musk explained that there is so much pushback on the efficiency project’s activity from the left because Democrats desperately don’t want their incentives to illegal immigrants to be turned off.

Musk stated, “So the waste report in entitlement spending, which is most of the federal spending is entitlements. So that’s like the big one to eliminate. That’s the sort of half trillion, maybe 600, 700 billion a year.”

“That is also a mechanism by which the Democrats attract and retain illegal immigrants by essentially paying them to come here and then turning them into voters,” Musk added.

“So this is why the Democrats are so upset about the situation,” he continued, adding “Because they’re losing. You know, if we turn off this gigantic money magnet for illegal immigrants, then they will leave and they will lose voters.”

“Where you’ll see the biggest outcry is from the Democrats who are, they don’t want the waste and fraud to be turned off because it is a gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants and have them stay in the country,” Elon further noted.

“I mean, you see some of the crazy stuff like where money from FEMA, FEMA is an agency that’s meant to take care of Americans in distress. And a bunch of their money was being sent to pay for luxury hotels in New York for illegal immigrants,” he added, referring to The Roosevelt Hotel in NYC, among many others.

Rep. Hank Johnson Says MAGA Wants Black Americans ‘Confined’ to ‘Picking Cotton’

Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) believes President Donald Trump and the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement wants black Americans “confined” back to “picking cotton,” making the remarks during a virtual event this week.

“The ways in which they can kill public education, from defunding it from a federal level, and then also enabling state monies and local monies to flow into the private for-profit school setup,” Johnson began.

“That is going that is ongoing,” he continued, asserting that it is a “recipe to make education unavailable to black people.”

“And where does that then leave us? It puts us back to when America was great and we were picking cotton and all of it — we’re doing the productivity that they are putting the — my Latino brothers and sisters who migrate here to do that work, because we are not suited intellectually to do it anymore,” he said.

“But they would have us back confined to doing that kind of work. So we gotta watch out for where we are headed and it’s the people that will save our democracy,” Johnson continued. “That will stop this movement towards the past that Trump has us hurtling towards.”

Dems Are Hoping to F-Bomb Their Way Into America’s Hearts

Happy Monday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. The Sine Qua Non Sequitur is taking a personal day to catalogue Pinterest photos of various buttercream offerings. 

I hope that all of you who live in federal time slave states are adjusting to whatever sort of springing it was you did on Saturday night. That must have been a lot after the rigors of celebrating International Women’s Day. So. Many. Sandwiches.

My friend Ed Morrissey did a deep dive at HotAir about the present state of Daylight Saving (NO “S”!) Time, and whether the government is going to do something about it. Given my notorious lack of faith in the federal government, I know whatever it does regarding DST will just make it worse. 

We’ve been spending a lot of time lately examining the thoroughly wretched state of the once-functional Democratic Party. The struggle is real for present-day Dems. It’s an especially rough go for the Dem water-carriers in the mainstream media. Once the water is carried, the lipstick has to be put on the pig, and they’re forever running low on that these days. 

The kinds of things that they are forced to spin for their masters at the Democratic National Committee aren’t exactly flattering. This is from something that Rick wrote over the weekend:

For Democrats, the experience is particularly unnerving. It has unmoored many of them from civilized society and sent them on a search for “authenticity.” As Politico reports, “one unifying thread as they try to invigorate their connection to the American voter has been a reach for profanity.”

You know, I have to give credit where credit is due: This is definitely a novel concept for bouncing back after a major electoral defeat. It’s certainly more cost-effective than traditional political outreach methods like television advertising or direct mail. And who needs fresh policy ideas when you can bond with the voters by simply wagging a salty tongue?

I’ll admit to being a little torn here. Lately, I think it would be nice to go for a day or two without writing another “Yeesh, look what the Democrats are up to now” column. Then again, that’s a rich vein of material to keep mining. There’s also the fact that this particular iteration of the Democratic Party is so filled with lunatics that there is some variety to the expressions of madness. 

To the surprise of no one, Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas shows up in this story. She is rapidly establishing herself as the Queen of the Democratic toilet. If the Dems ever do eventually come up with any coherent plans for emerging from the political exile that they are in at the moment, there’s a good chance that Crockett’s perpetually open foul mouth will interfere with them. I’ve got a feeling about this one. In fact, I told Paula last week that we might want to get more pictures of Crockett for our photo library because I’m sure we’re going to be writing about her a lot in the coming months. 

None of it will be flattering, by the way.

Democrats Won’t Be Happy Until They Destroy Every Great City

I used to work in the city of Boston, Mass., and felt relatively safe in the city, even at night. It’s a great city—or at least it was—full of history. In a lot of ways, I miss being there every day (it’s been many years)… in other ways, not so much. Frankly, I really don’t think I’d be comfortable there anymore. Why? Because the city’s Democrat mayor, Michelle Wu, has officially lost her mind. 

In her latest far-left scheme to destroy what’s left of this once-great city, she’s implemented a mind-boggling “no-arrest” policy for drug dealers. You read that right—drug dealers are getting a free pass in Boston now, courtesy of the local Democratic Party.

This disastrous policy, cooked up by Wu alongside Police Commissioner Michael Cox and Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden, represents everything wrong with progressive governance. They’re calling it an “evolution” in tackling drug problems. 

“At the end of the day, this issue is about sobriety,” said Hayden. “Incarceration is not the answer to help get them sober, and if we don’t get them sober, then they’re coming back.

“If we don’t address the underlying issue, then we don’t solve the problem, and they will continue to commit whatever crime they were committing, whether it’s drug use, whether it’s drug dealing to support the habit, whether it’s shoplifting, whether it’s robbing somebody, whatever it may be, that’s what we’re trying to deal with,” Hayden added.

While Wu and her squad of enablers pat themselves on the back for their “compassionate” approach, Boston’s streets are turning into open-air drug markets. Local business owners are watching their livelihoods circle the drain as customers avoid the increasingly dangerous downtown area. At a recent business roundtable, desperate store owners spelled it out plain and simple: the drug situation “scares the customer to come in town and buy stuff.”

Tim Walz Left Stumped When Asked Who’s Running the Democratic Party – Then He Gives an Unexpected Answer

Despondent Democrats getting rolled by the Trump Administration got a cold dose of reality from their former nominee for vice president earlier this week after he nearly face-planted on national TV.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz appeared on CNN’s “The Arena with Kasie Hunt” on Wednesday to discuss President Trump’s Joint Address to Congress the previous night. During their conversation, Hunt asked an excellent question that perfectly reflects the quandary Democrats are in right now.

“Sir, who do you think the leader of the Democratic Party is right now?” she queried.

After hearing this question, a stumped Tim Walz paused for a few brief moments before giving this surprising answer:

“I think the voting public, right now, is what I would say,” he responded while nervously chuckling. “We are not going to have a charismatic leader ride in and save us from this.”

Vote-Buying Scheme Exposed: Stacey Abrams Admits on MSNBC Biden EPA Handed Her $2 Billion to Buy New Home Appliances to Reduce Electric Bills Just Months Before the Election

In a jaw-dropping admission on MSNBC, failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams proudly revealed that the Biden administration’s EPA funneled nearly $2 billion into a program she spearheaded to replace home appliances—just in time for an election year.

During an interview with left-wing host Chris Hayes, Abrams proudly recounted how the Biden administration greenlit her project, Vitalizing DeSoto, a so-called “climate justice” initiative that handed out free home appliances to a select group of residents in a small Georgia town.

But the real bombshell? This taxpayer-funded windfall was part of a larger effort to implement the Democrats’ radical climate agenda under the guise of “helping” Americans with their electric bills.

President Donald Trump, in a fiery rebuke, called out the scheme for what it is—a politically motivated slush fund designed to curry favor with voters using taxpayer dollars.

“Take a $1.9 billion to recently created Decarbonization of Homes Committee headed up—and we know she’s involved. Just at the last moment, the money was passed over by a woman named Stacey Abrams. Have you ever heard of her?” Trump said during his joint address to Congress.

Rather than deny her involvement, Abrams openly confirmed it, boasting that her pilot program successfully provided government-funded appliances to 75% of DeSoto’s residents.

‘The View’ Co-Host Sunny Hostin Says Democrats Must Be Willing to ‘Fight and Die’ to Defeat Donald Trump

With every passing week, The View co-host Sunny Hostin is becoming more and more unhinged.

Hostin, who is known for making her fellow left-wing panelists seem like moderates, said on Friday’s edition of The View that Democrats must be willing to follow the civil rights generation in being willing to “fight and die” in order to defeat Donald Trump.

She made the comments when discussing the behavior of Texas Representative Al Green, who was kicked out and later censured for disrupting President Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday evening.

“They should be ashamed of themselves,” Hostin said of the Democrats. “They all should have walked out with him.”

She went on:

They don’t know how to fight and be part of an opposition party. Representative Green gave them the example. The Democrats are not meeting the moment.

It is very clear that Medicaid is on the table. It is very clear that Social Security is on the table. It is very clear that people will die.

The Baby Boomers, the civil rights generation — they knew what they had to do. They were willing to fight and die for their rights.

This generation of Congress, they are not meeting the moment. This is an existential crisis.
