In this anxiety producing moment, with this kind of madness unleashed, getting truly serious about looking out for each other’s health and welfare and taking care of the planet we all call home are the most calming, stabilizing actions we could possibly take right now.
He’s desperate for someone, anyone else to blame. Meanwhile, Wisconsin is desperate for some real leadership from its governor.
If they want to end it — which would be both reckless and unpopular — they should at least have the guts to take a vote and face the consequences with voters.
Time may be running out to expose the effort to overthrow Trump, which began before his election.
Wisconsin voters need to work down the Wisconsin ballot as well as look at other state races, too, and there are national movements to help do that.
