News: @TomTiffanyWI, his allies have outspent @DavidCCrowley, his backers more than 2-to-1 since the primary on ads, GOTV.
Disparity fueled by big donors. Follows national trend of Republicans having spending advantage in bad environment.

Literally three right-wing billionaires—two of them, Dick and Liz Uihlein, a married couple who funded the groups behind January 6—are responsible for the vast majority of Tiffany's $. jsonline.com/story/news/poli…

Look, it’s important to take accountability when you make a mistake.
The drunk man who struck a bicyclist was a CONTRACTOR for a firm CONTRACTED to help the PAC backing Tiffany, a PAC funded by the Uihleins.
I’m glad I could own my mistake and avoid legal action.

The hottest story out of Wisconsin politics is the fued between the WisDems Chair and Republican billionaires
It has EVERYTHING:
- drunk driving on 4 BuzzBallz
- an out-of-state canvasser fleeing on foot
- a cease and desist
- an "apology" that restates the allegation 10 times
Yesterday, I received a cease and desist from the Uihlein family and their PAC about some recent comments I made.
Allow me to set the facts straight. The Texan man— canvassing to advocate for Tom Tiffany— who slammed four BuzzBallz before driving, struck a bicyclist with his car, and ran away from the scene of the crime was a CONTRACTOR, not an employee, of a firm being paid millions by the PAC funded by the Uihleins.
This distinction is clearly very important, and I feel so remorseful that I will repeat this frequently and often.
Thank you for your attention to this very important matter!

We just discovered almost a million public URLs that OpenAI’s agents left behind when hacking Hugging Face, leaking credentials and attack details that could have allowed anyone who found them to compromise the company. 🧵

Tom Tiffany voted to raise the cost of your healthcare… and then gave a tax break to data centers.

That's rich coming from the guy who voted to continue the war 5 times.
@TomTiffanyWI: You had 5 chances to do something about gas prices and you sold out WI to Donald Trump.

The average price of diesel in WI is $6.62.
And while we're paying more, Tom Tiffany is voting to give data centers a tax break.

Don't forget: Tom Tiffany voted for the Trump tax bill that cut a trillion dollars from health care... and handed a giant tax break to data center developers.

Tom Tiffany went to Washington and sold out Wisconsin. Now we’re all paying the price.

Senator Tammy Baldwin and I stopped by Riemer Family Farm to hear directly from the folks who are being crushed by Tom Tiffany, Donald Trump, and record-high gas prices.
As governor, I’ll make sure Wisconsin’s farmers have a seat at the table.

44 days until the Nov. 3 election. The biggest opportunity Democrats have had to win control of state government in Wisconsin since the 2008 election is just weeks away.

@TomTiffanyWI keeps dodging debates because he doesn’t want to explain to Wisconsinites why he voted to gut their healthcare.
