Here it is: the entire closing message for @DavidCCrowley’s campaign w/a bow on top. Run the hell outta this on digital & tv & drop the “corruption” & “foreign investment” crap, & the snarky anti-“you betcha” ads from focus groups in Alexandria, VA. Tom Tiffany has a near 💯 voting record w/Trump. He’ll do whatever Don says. Do what Tiffany asks; look at his record. That’s the ad. Take a page from Pat Murphy’s book: don’t complain, don’t explain. Being out spent sucks. The rules suck. Worker harder & smarter & win anyway. That’s what Fran Hong essentially did. Take away the last two weeks of the primary, or Kelda drops out, and Fran wins w/far less money largely because she ran a smart, innovative, authentic, in-touch campaign (until the last two weeks). As someone who wants you to win, you have issues West & North of Madison.
Asked if he'd be a rubber stamp for Donald Trump, Tom Tiffany said: "They should check Tom Tiffany's record."
We did. Even when it meant higher costs for Wisconsin families, he voted with Trump nearly 100% of the time. #WIGov #WIpolitics

"Just put the fires out!"
Ever seen a boreal wildfire? I have. I used to fight them.
When fire behaviour becomes extreme, you're not getting close to them.
The radiant heat from a crown fire is face-melting from hundreds of metres away.
All attempts at direct attack will fail, because dropping water on it becomes akin to trying to spit on a campfire...it evaporates before it even hits the flames.
Additionally, reduced visibility, high winds, and turbulence makes aerial attack hazardous.
As a wildland firefighter, I've been extracted off of wildfires twice as our fires blew up, both times having our gear burned over. We returned to find firehoses and metal melted into the ash.
I've seen fireballs launched hundreds of feet high, and fires intense enough to produce lightning, influencing the weather around them. I've seen wildfires grow to the size of a major city in a short period of time.
So no, we can't just put the fire out.
Not being able to stop such a natural process is a truly humbling feeling.

People in the eastern US get one whiff of wildfire smoke and suddenly they're all experts in Canadian forest management

Republicans sound pretty fucking silly talking about Graham Platner when they gleefully elected an adjudicated rapist (also mentioned at least 38,000 times in the Epstein files)

I’ll just never understand how a majority of our elected officials don’t look at this and feel embarrassed.

Good time to remind everyone that Tesla deleted their old blog posts that stated HW2.5 and then later HW3 was sufficient for full self driving.
Internet doesn't forget though.
