Wisconsin Supreme Court Backs GOP Scheme To Rob Dem Governor Of Appointment Powers

Verbatim, yes. That's why the President carefully selects their nominees, remember you'll hear with judicial appointments: He was nominated to the 7th district court by a vote of 98-7 or some stuff like that. The Senate has the ability in both federal and our states to advise and consent the president/governor(glad we can review some of the essentials together.)

Gov. Evers finds himself in a mixed government, where yes a conservative State Senate is unlikely to nominate and confirm a left-leaning nominee, even if that nominee is qualified and capable. This is what's called the conflicting powers, and it's usually welcomed as political normalcy. They did say they wanted it to return to normal. This was normal for most of the last century.

The solution for Evers and for the AG is that the non-vote is the same thing as voting down(I do think they should vote down anyway, but whatever) and given this, find a nominee that's acceptable to both of them.

 

This sort of thing is happening and will continue to happen exponentially as long as the majority are under the minority's thumb. Gerrymandering, SCOTUS loading, and doing their best to keep people from voting are just the beginning.

Minority rule = tyranny.

 

They have no platform, no message, and fewer numbers. Cheating is the only way they can win. There is very little honor left in the GQP.

 

Wisconsin seems to me to have become a little fascist nugget right there in the happy heartland of 'Merika.

I've found myself accepting some really bizarre facts over the years and just recently ran across this insane documentary,

https://www.netflix.com/title/80000770

It basically leaves me with considering that there is a very high probability that Manitowoc county conspired to frame Steven Avery by killing Teresa Halbach, simply based on the obvious fact that there was not a drop of Teresa's blood found anywhere: not in the bedroom of Steven Avery, not in the garage of Steven Avery: nowhere. Another conspiracy whose very audacity provides it with cover..., and the convenient fact that Steven Avery's $36M civil suit came to an abrupt conclusion with the advent of this new case against him.

Add on top of it the spooky soft-spoken prosecutor hell-bent on prosecuting Steven Avery's nephew gifted with an IQ estimated at around 73 and I find myself completely convinced of the existence of folks that actually do come close to personifying pure evil.

 

Pure evil does exist.

 

God bless the SC of Wisconsin

 

We Americans love it!

 

Authoritarians luv it too.

 

You're creating all this agita over a member of the State Natural Resources Board??? And only one of seven? Wow, I guess the Democrat Extermination Camps will be starting in the next few weeks at their behest, eh?

Their SC got it right, that it what the law says. And as I have been explaining to people who don't understand how these things work since the Dobbs decision, a Supreme Court's function is to adjudicate disputes as regards the Constitution (of the State of Wisconsin in this case), and the laws of that State as it relates to the Case before them. As others have pointed out, in this particular case, this result is what the law says, so it's a proper one. I have no idea if this is some major controversy in the State, I rather doubt it because I'd bet money I don't even have that most residents don't know such a board exists to begin with. It also doesn't seem like a position that should require advice and consent from the Senate to begin with, assuming its very existence is truly justified, which simply based on the name, I doubt.

"If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice" - Rush (the band)

 

It is the democrats who are the actual authoritarians in this country. The Governor of that state didn’t mind overriding the legislature regarding covid emergency powers and election rules in 2020. Turnabout is fair play here.

 

Quoting Rush (for no apparent reason or purpose) doesn't take away the fact that this is political horseshit... which directly follows a piece of legal horseshit... leading one to conclude the Wisconsin GOP is horseshit....

People cannot help but notice the most egregious examples of truly unethical behavior....

 

Ahhh, no. The evangelical far RW is the threat to democracy.

 

" the expiration of Prehn’s term by itself “does not create a vacancy” under state law,"

Then change the law. Judges can't change the law because the governor doesn't like it. Nominate someone the Rep's will confirm.

 

Seems like a problem with an obvious solution: Governor whats-his-face needs to nominate a candidate acceptable to the Senate.

 

It's called balance of power. That is apparently how their constitution and statues read. Change them. And spare me the whining about how dare the GOP as if the Dems never use such to their advantage.

 

You mean advise and consent?…….

 

I know it's a crazy idea, but maybe the governor ought to give it a try.

 

Seriously, they act like Harriet Myers(a woman, you heard that right) wasn't rejected by the Democrats! If I'm not mistaken, Bush had some other nominees rejected but she was the most notable one off the top of my head. We've done the advise and consent thing forever, this isn't new.

 

All because you said so, eh? You could at least try to come up with something that remotely makes sense, even if it is wrong. If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.

Oh, and the Rush quote was in reference to the Wisconsin Senate, who by deciding not to decide still made a choice. I thought even you would get that, but I'm not all that surprised I was wrong about that.

 

Oppose the lefts radicalism and fascism! Every step of the way.

 

LoL... never mind that the girl was nervous about visiting Avery's place because of Avery's previous behavior towards her, never mind the nephews confession that included details only the killer would know, never mind that her car with her blood in it was found on Avery's place, never mind that Avery was in possession of her car keys, never mind that her burnt remains were found on Avery's property, never mind that Steven Avery and his nephew look like inbred hicks straight out of casting for the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.... with matching IQs.


Perhaps you should quit going to Netflix for your evidence. Here are the 14 damning pieces of evidence the Netflix "documentary" left out.

https://onmilwaukee.com/articles/evidenceagainstavery

I am sure none of this will matter to you. What I have learned is that evidence is of no value to the left.

 

LoL it is then. The sum of the evidence in my opinion points about 100% toward the Manitowoc County Police as the perps. Talk about retarded, forget about the dumbass nephew with an IQ of 73 that was coached to draw that ridiculous diagram by his public defender's "private investigator". The obvious retards are these government officials that crafted this ridiculously heinous murder scenario that falls completely apart because they were too f'g stupid to plant a single shred of her DNA in the bedroom where she was supposedly raped, stabbed and had her throat slashed. How do you not get that? That's their totally made up story. Never happened. No f'g way that happened without there being all kinds of DNA evidence all over that room.

 

That's what the WI Constitution requires to fill this appointment. Some folks on the Left really hate constitutions because they safeguard Free People against illegitimate authoritarianism.

 

LMAO... So the Gov DICTATES who the State Senate should confirm??? Certainly there's a phrase for that.

 

No, but they owe the people and the governor a timely up-and-down vote. If they have the votes to deny the new candidate, they should go ahead and do it. That they don't do that should tell you all you need to know...

As I said in another post (or maybe at the bottom of the post you cut off), a small fry committee member like this shouldn't need legislative approval anyway.... It's a concept that has been bastardized (by bastards) into creating an unsupportable goatscrew.... much like the archaic filibuster....
