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

Not tyranny at all. The last State-level tyranny that existed here in Wisconsin was when King Evers completely ignored State law and kept extending a mask mandate that he had absolutely no authority to extend. A number of us here likewise completely ignored his illegal dictate.

 

Evers needs to nominate a suitable replacement then... The hold up is his.

 

Correct. He needs to nominate someone who the Senate would approve of. He has failed to do so, because he is an ideological tyrant. Hopefully his ass will get voted out come November (which will happen if there is less election fraud, which got him in the last time) and we can start becoming a bastion of freedom akin to Florida.

 

Yes, there is. It is called the RULE OF LAW. RULE BY CONSTITUTION. You know, that which liberals like yourself completely despise.

Wisconsin is not a democracy; it is a federated republic. Evers did not get the most votes (he is only governor atm due to election fraud in Milwaukee County in 201. This state did NOT vote for that tyrannical jackass.

 

The title of your OP sounds ominous. Then I found nothing out of the ordinary, no wrong doing, nor anything significant in the post itself.

 

This post is nothing out of the ordinary for you either....Inability to spot unethical behavior seems clearly beyond your capabilities...

 

Maybe I just missed something. What is unethical, let alone odd or of any real interest, about a judge ruling that an appointee who had resigned can remain in his post until someone else is appointed (nominated and approved) to replace him??

 

Sorry... not here to teach.... those that can't read and comprehend the entire thread really shouldn't participate..

 

The problem is, based on 2020 results - if 25K flip who they voted for in GA, AZ, WI, & NV Trump wins

Not a lot of people need to focus on the economy

Dems need to find some solutions that work and dramatically improve their messaging

 

Because it doesn't.. just like the district court also said. The legislature has the power to change this if they see fit. Otherwise, the court's hands are tied by the law. The only confusion is how the other side got 3 supporters on the Court and how people trust Huffington Post nonsense without verifying the law. It's written in plain English. The governor can remove him, but it has to be for cause. The dissent is largely an emotional piece of drivel which is a sure fire way of knowing they're wrong and they know they're wrong.

 

Why? The messaging is that MAGA is Un-American.... it's accurate, long lasting and easy to remember.

MAGA couldn't find a solution to any of today's problem with a GPS device and directions to that solution... In fact, a decent case can be made that a lot of today's problems were MAGA inspired, if not outright created...

 

So this 6 year appointee is in for life.... Congrats... you've destroyed representative government, in Wisconsin at least...

Go hump a flag in celebration....

Have any of you geniuses figured out the court is not the primary problem here?? Highly doubt it...

 

It's not a matter of celebrating or humping anything. It's a matter of the government following the law. And, the people are represented. The state Senate confirms appointments. The governor can work with the Senate to find a candidate that can be confirmed. Elections have consequences. Just because you win an election doesn't mean you get to have every pick rubber-stamped by the Senate. There's no reason to be an insurrectionist because you dislike a law.

If you actually figured out the court wasn't the primary problem then why did you focus on it in our opening post? The backtracking attempt to sound like you knew what you were talking is dismissed. And, even if Prehn were to step down the nominee doesn't magically get seated. They still need to be confirmed by the Senate. And there's nothing stopping the Senate from confirming his replacement without him stepping down.

 

so many hurt feelings in here.

 

Sure there is.... It's called calling a vote... If they don't like the governors candidate, they vote him down and they start over. Not doing anything is just political bullshit, just like the McConnell rule...

I didn't focus on the Court, just mentioned them as accessories in this scheme.... The MAGA legislature takes the bulk of my disgust here, although this idiot Court doesn't get any badges of courage for supporting this either...

Why am I talking to you? You know this is crap, but support it anyway...

 

The Title is Fake News. The Governor is free to appoint, but, his appointee has no government power until he is confirmed by the Elected Senate, which has been the situation since WI became a state.

 

That's the state Senate's prerogative. The Supreme Court must remain neutral and make rulings based on what the law is rather than what they think the law should be. Disagreeing with the Senate action in principle is entirely different than agreeing with the Court's ruling. It is the appropriate ruling.

And your initial post was largely about the Supreme Court, from the article title, to the parts of the article you highlighted, to your opening paragraph. You're upset that the Court allowed the Wisconsin Republicans to get away with their behavior. That's the underlying message of this thread. But, it's not the Court's fault the law is stupid.

 

No, it's certainly not their fault, but it's their job to say if the law needs to be sustained.

And they whiffed, on a straight party vote...

Another political court exposed...

I posted the title and core of the article by forum rules... My personal comments included only 1 sentence out of 6 on the actual court failure...

 

what an excellent example of who/what/where/when and such a non-bias article..............ok ok, I know it's Democrat voting rubbish posted as a news article

 

Feel free to provide a MAGA-approved link with another viewpoint then..

 

OR, if we get a handle on election fraud, Democrats won't win ever again (well, at least for a very long time)... fraud is the only way that they can "win" in most states, which includes all of the states that you listed here.

Dems aren't interested in solutions. They are only interested in power and implementing their "6uild 6ack 6etter" ideological pipedream that goes by many names, but one such name is the "Green New Deal". They don't care that they are destroying people's livelihoods (skyrocketing gas prices, skyrocketing inflation, skyrocketing food prices, skyrocketing energy prices) in order to get there.

They have also been prepping people into accepting the idea that "plant-based meat" is edible and good for people, that crickets and other insects are edible and good for people. Of course, the WEF-type elites and Hollywood-types won't be eating plant based "meat" and crickets... They know full well that their policies have caused impeding massive food shortages, so they are already proactively attempting to shift the blame for that shortage over to Putin, and are already war-mongering and setting up a WW3 against Putin and will do so in the name of the food shortage that they are already blaming him for.

Putin sure does control A LOT of the world's affairs, doesn't he? I digress...

There are Dutch farmers right now whose lives are being completely and utterly destroyed because of government dictates to "go green" and "combat climate change". That sort of thing is not going to be unique to the Netherlands... it WILL spread here too... and it won't be the corporate farms that get targeted... it will be the small farms (the "little guy") who get targeted...


Democrats are VERY evil people. How any decent person can still attempt to even slightly rationalize his/her voting for any sort of Democrat in this day and age is beyond me... They don't stand for the working class person; they stand for the WEF elites. --- Granted, the Republican Party (the RINOs within it) aren't any better, but there are a number of decent Republicans (such as Donald Trump) who are not working to destroy the lives of the working class citizenry like Democrats are actively trying to do with their 6uild 6ack 6etter climate-agenda policies.

 

I myself struggle with the part in bold. It pales any rational thinking.

Democrats put us into this train wreck

 

What a bunch of BS! The governor doesn't get to set the Senate's agenda. By choosing to not prioritize his nominee, they're just choosing one of the various options available to them to withhold their consent. It's not like this is new, either. Democrats refused to allow an up-or-down vote on Miguel Estrada, so don't come crying to us now with 'just vote him down'. Your side started this sort of crap.

 

That's apple and oranges, since that involved a judge on a appeals court who had never been an actual judge first, but you ARE against the Senate filibuster?? I'll file that away....

 

I'm against the hypocrisy you're demonstrating by wailing about this nominee not getting a vote while excusing / ignoring Democrats blocking a vote on Miguel Estrada's nomination. Why don't you file THAT away?
