@GottaLaff Yay! 
Plus Wisconsin GOP controlled senate lost their supermajority. #wisconsin #supermajority #WisconsinSenate #wisgop #wisdems https://captimes.com/news/government/democrats-gained-in-the-wisconsin-legislature-will-it-affect-policy/article_fd71c772-9d4a-11ef-a8da-8fabf89cab01.html
The Cap TimesDemocrats gained in the Wisconsin Legislature. Will it affect policy?Robin Vos and other Republicans will have legislative majorities, but Democrats see room for compromise now on issues like housing and school funding.
My #wishes for #2025 (not that I think any of this will come true):
1. #KamalaHarris is sworn-in as the 47th #POTUS.
2. #Democrats get a #SuperMajority in the #House and #Senate
3. Democrats use their Super Majority to admit #PuertoRico and #DC as the 51st and 52nd State.
4. The #SCOTUS is expanded from 9 justices to 13 justices, with the 4 new justices being all liberal.
5. #RoeVWade is codified into law.
6. #QualifiedImmunity is outlawed.
7. Donald #Trump and his entire family is imprisoned.
8. Elon #Musk has his citizenship revoked and is deported back to South Africa
One can wish, can't they?

When speaking to supporters from the swing state, where both #Trump & VP #KamalaHarris have doubled efforts to capture the #election count in Nov, Trump lamented the criticism aimed at #SCOTUS’ #conservative #supermajority & said it should be “illegal.”
“They were very brave, the #SupremeCourt. Very brave. And they take a lot of hits because of it,” Trump said. “It should be illegal, what happens.“
