Trump’s gaudy presidential library renderings are getting attention, but the real story is the money.
Democrats are now investigating what happened to the $63 million that ABC, Meta, Paramount, and X committed through legal settlements after the 2024 election.

Dear Gov Evers, and other Leftie idiots, the scholarship money that the governor just walked away from could have helped thousands of MPS kids read better. Or are you okay with dooming 95% of black kids to always being behind?

MMAC has developed a robust plan to distribute this funding throughout WI. : payitforwardwi.org History shows states opt into smart federal programs. A dollar‑for‑dollar tax credit is too valuable to pass up. If WI opts in, MMAC commits to funding 100 reading tutors in MPS.

BREAKING: Democrat Governor Tony Evers VETOED a bill to opt Wisconsin into Trump's new school choice program.
The Senate passed it 18–15.
The House passed it 54–44.

@CoryJBrewer Before he was Governor he was the state Superintendent. Let that sink in……..

Governor Evers has no idea what the bill he vetoed would have done. He is objectively incorrect that the bill involved public funds.
It would've unlocked millions of dollars in *privately funded scholarships* for kids in both public and private schools.

Public funds should be used for public schools. Simple as that. jsonline.com/story/news/pol…

The woman who was alerted to the opiod scandal at a WI VA by the Obama admin and did nothing about it is now pretending to care about our soldiers.
If you remember, she literally went underground for weeks to avoid accountability.

Public schools in Wisconsin are literally suing for more money right now. But Governor Evers vetoed legislation that would've provided it at no cost to taxpayers. All because it might benefit private school choice as well.

BREAKING: A three-judge panel appointed by the Wisconsin Supreme Court has ruled that it cannot overturn the state's congressional maps. The judges further held that a liberal attempt to do so was a partisan gerrymander and dismissed the case.

Shots rang out close to a teen "takeover" at Moody Park in Milwaukee tonight. We heard the gunfire and saw teens sprinting away as officers and deputies ran in. This comes one day after another takeover at Bayshore Mall, where officers arrested 14 teens. @WISN12News

@WI_RightWing_Ls @WisGOP @devinremikerwi @benwikler @WisDems Big money is now suddenly a good thing if it’s “OUR’” money!

Get fuckin rekt @WisGOP.
This is what a competent state party looks like.
@devinremikerwi hasn’t skipped a beat since @benwikler stepped aside.
@WisDems is in great hands.

MILWAUKEE: Crime is exploding. Cops are overworked, underpaid, and stretched dangerously thin, with zero backup from city leadership (notably the city attorney and @MayorMKE. Take the federal assistance that's been offered before it's too late and the streets get even worse. Act before MKE turns into the next Chicago. It's more than halfway there.

Now the truth:
The Fed government bestowed $2.33 BILLION in one time Covid aid money to Wisconsin public schools. Most districts blew the money on complete crap. The Fed money ran out in 2024 and districts refused to cut back to prior spending levels. So they pass referendums
Wisconsin Democrats@WisDems
THE REPUBLICANS' REFERENDUM CYCLE EXPLAINED Why your property taxes are increasing: 1. According to the Wisconsin State Constitution 📜Every child is guaranteed an opportunity for a basic education and the state is required to help provide for public schools. 2. Republicans have underfunded public schools 👉Republicans have controlled the legislature for the last 15 years and have spent that entire time failing to fund public schools. 3. Local elections keep having referendums 💸Because of Republicans' choice to underfund schools, local school districts have to ask their communities for more money. 4. LOCAL PROPERTY TAXES KEEP GOING UP. It’s Republicans refusing to allow our government to function the way it needs to, that’s the reason.

@gregoryjon Priceless.. we don’t want “YOUR “king…….we will however accept “OUR” king. He’s righteous because he agrees with me!

He’s referring to a bill that would have allowed private donors to give to scholarship organizations to provide families of public AND private school kids with additional resources to—at no cost to taxpayers—cover additional educational expenses for their kids.

Joseph Schwartz was convicted of healthcare fraud. His mom then donated $1 million to Trump. Then Trump pardoned him. Republicans don’t seem to care about fraud if it’s followed by bribes.
Tom Tiffany@TomTiffanyWI
While @GovEvers vetoed four state auditor positions, I will restore transparency. As governor, I will audit every program and every agency in Wisconsin. We will not let Wisconsin follow Minnesota down a path of massive fraud and stolen taxpayer dollars.
English
If you need government permission, then government mandates come with it. Government controls EVERY education penny it oversees. Ever heard of having to qualify in order to accept the money as a school? These ESSA mandates were exposed 10 years ago. Keep pretending they don't exist and the kids will pay the price
You have no idea how many intertwined government agency policies are tied together to manage control of very penny spent on education. Parens patriae is also always looming and can't be escaped. Cause & effect is lost on people. If they don't know about it, it doesn't exist, and just like the woke, the right attacks anybody who brings a counterpoint, no matter the truth.
English
Oh wow, our Governor is making jokes about harming school children throughout Wisconsin.
Here's what's going on: Federal law creates a dollar-for-dollar tax credit (up to $1,700) for any donations to scholarship granting organizations. You give money to the organization, you take a tax credit, the organization must then use the money for scholarships.
Those scholarships are open to all students, public and private alike. Can cover tutoring, transportation, special needs services, etc. More money for kids at zero cost to the State of Wisconsin or our local districts.
But Governor Evers' purely political decision making means Wisconsin kids (in both public and private schools) are ineligible to receive those scholarships. So while you can still make a donation, and claim a tax credit -- your money just will be sent out of state to help kids elsewhere, no Wisconsin kids can benefit.
Real galaxy brain stuff here by our Governor...

@DairylandSent @CorriHess So there is money for schools he refuses to take. Must not need it! Good to know.
English
@CorriHess Well, this version is better than the first version of your report and the first headline. But the Governor’s description of the bill, taken his gospel, was not accurate.

Evers vetoes bill to join federal expansion of private voucher schools

@ColbeyDecker @NewFashionedPod @CoryJBrewer @GovEvers Oh…..@DanRShafer must have missed this announcement.

It is shameful that @GovEvers is mocking children and families desperate for services as he vetos funding.
This federal K-12 scholarship program could be life changing for WI children! Centers like On The Mark Dyslexia Clinic in Northeast WI, which provides tutoring for K-12 students with dyslexia, have over 100 students on the waitlists for testing and services. This program would be no cost to the state, just more aid for kids who desperately need it.
History will judge him harshly.
English
Governor Evers here is referring to a bill he vetoed that would have provided an opportunity for scholarships for both public and private school students.
It would've helped children with dyslexia who cannot afford to pay for reading support, children whose parents struggle to pay for before- and after-school care, the family who cannot afford fees for their child to participate in band trips and other extracurriculars, and so much more.
And our governor thinks it is amusing to share a picture of him holding a stop sign as some sort of "own" to private schools / school choice. What he's really doing is stopping families in need from accessing resources that would greatly benefit their children.
But hey I'm sure the teachers unions are happy.
