While it is important that the MPD provide security during the DNC, officers don’t need tanks, tear gas and rubber bullets to do it. The Common Council must prevent the MPD from obtaining weapons of war to use against our community.https://t.co/YUvlr8VivY — ACLU of Wisconsin (@ACLUofWisconsin) July 22, 2020

Predictably, Trump Comes Up Empty on Foxconn
From The White House’s official transcript:
This is just the beginning. This is one of the largest plants in the world. And when you think in terms of 20 million feet — if you build in Manhattan a million-foot building, that’s a very big building. They don’t get much bigger. And here you’re talking about more. Think of it: more than 20 million feet. And that’s probably going to be a minimal number.
So I’m thrilled to be here in the Badger State with the hardworking men and women of Foxconn working with you. Moments ago, we broke ground on a plant that will provide jobs for much more than 13,000 Wisconsin workers. (Applause.) Really something. Really something. Thank you, fellas.
