he is a former judge in wisconsin. last year he spoke at a stop the steal rally about how the election was stolen from trump. mr. gableman has refused to say who is working with him on this so-called audit with the exception of one person, also a trump appointee, a trump white house lawyer who last year said online the presidential election was stolen fair and square. these are the two guys wisconsin republicans have picked to run their, you know, impartial investigation into whether or not joe biden won wisconsin in 2020. it's trump white house lawyer and a trump political appointee. i'm sure they'll be completely fair though. as we have covered extensively on the show, this audit thus far has been doing a bang-up job, if you take the meaning of "bang-up" literally. it's led to exasperated coverage in wisconsin, reporters trying to figure out how to cover this with a straight face. for example, these are real sentences in a real news article about real things michael gableman has been doing while running this investig

again, that was from wisconsin state attorney general josh kaul, with wisconsin state attorney general josh kaul, is going to be our guest here in just a moment. we also have our eyes here tonight on some other developing news, -- on that particular dark corner in politics. now that former trump has advised to not comply with subpoenas from the january 6th investigation, in congress. the committee that's conducting that's investigation is planning to move forward with a criminal contempt referral, for at least one of those trump white house officials, few van. i should mention, at that event for republican candidate glenn youngkin, enrich virginia last nights, the one where they pledged allegiance to the flag that was used in the crowd of january 6th. after that, steve bannon whipped up the crowd with all these claims that all the election had been stolen from trump. and they were gonna take it back. he reportedly said at this event, that not only is trump coming back into office, but then he said, they're going to rule for 100 years. okay, will you be here for all of them? it doesn't

this is the guy who is leading wisconsin's nonpartisan, objective wisconsin audit. to just make sure there is our sincere, and unbiased look at those very troubling election results in wisconsin. we it really seems as if the wisconsin audit might be even more ridiculous than the one they did in arizona. arizona got lots of national attention from the ridiculous that cyber ninjas thing and what happened, but the wisconsin one is also, again taxpayer funded, organized and put in motion by wisconsin republicans in the state legislature. not getting any national attention thus far, but they're trying to use it in just the same way. that guy leading it, to put some sort of spotlight on the wisconsin presidential election results, to make it seem like biden didn't really win. today a wisconsin judge, in response to a lawsuit followed by -- the washington group of american oversight, ordered the -- to hand over records and documents related to this election investigation. maybe we will finally find out what exactly led to this, and what exactly republicans in wisconsin are

wisconsin, the republican leader of the state assembly in wisconsin hired a former wisconsin judge, a former judge who spoke at a stop the steal rally in november alleging that donald trump had secretly won the election. they hired him to oversee a very, very objective audit in the state of wisconsin as the wisconsin legislature's official special counsel to investigate these matters. this is an audit that is set to cost wisconsin taxpayers nearly $700,000. the man who is in charge of this audit has made sure to keep conspiracy theories directly in the orbit of what he's doing. he attended a symposium put on by the my pillow guy, the guy who says that an 850-year-old person voted in the election. he's also apparently been consulting with a former political candidate who also was part of the arizona audit. this is a guy who says the election was stolen from trump and he can tell you that because he has found it by reading between the lines of "the hitch hiker's guide to the galaxy," that's where he got the numerical algorithms that prove what votes were stolen and when. it's against th

presidential election in 2020 in wisconsin. he made this statement on his youtube channel this weekend against a very official-looking green screen that served as his backdrop, and he says that he has definitely started to see signs of things that look like maybe evidence that the election was definitely rigged. doesn't actually say what any of that evidence is or what he found. he says it all looks bad. you'll recall this is the same so-called audit that kicked off in wisconsin with this special counsel requesting sensitive election documents from clerks all over the state. his initial demand for documents came from a gmail address that populated in everyone's emails as john delta. who's john delta? he went on to issue subpoenas requesting every single doument related in any way to it. he subpoenaed that from county clerks and from the mayors of large cities in wisconsin, subpoenas riddled with glaring errors, including spelling errors and being addressed to the wrong people. he demanded officials in wisconsin must meet with h

also today in wisconsin, more progress. you know how republicans all over the country are pursuing these reviews of the 2020 election results, arizona, pennsylvania, texas, wisconsin, all over the place? they're pursuing these reviews which they're calling audits or forensic audits. they want to make it seem like they're running some rigorous process and investigating some kind of known crime scene. all of these things are nonsense. they are designed simply to muddy the waters around the clear election results. make the administration seem controversial or rigged or somehow partisan. they're trying to rarefy these that the election was stolen. they are using these reviews and audits to justify perverting the election system so partisan figures can mess with or throw out inconvenient results in the future. these things are terrible, toxic and actively dangerous. but interestingly, in wisconsin where they've got one of those nonsense ones, they've actually had two audits under way and we had really interesting and, i would sa

he subpoenaed that from county clerks, and the mayors of large studies in wisconsin. riddled with glaring errors including spelling earth and the ming adjust to the wrong people. he demanded that these officials in wisconsin must meet with him in private for an interview which is not a thing, in terms of the way subpoenas work. nonetheless he demanded private interviews by the sort of pitch subpoenas, and people are supposed to turn up for these interviews had an office that's like a shared working space. where it's him and a liposuction clinic. in a surprising term of hands he within a few days walked back to those interviews, and subpoenas only to say the following day that some of them were definitely back on. the people that wear the targets of these interview request and subpoenas don't know whether there is our honor off. he has admitted publicly that he has no idea how elections work in wisconsin, but he's looked enough to know that things don't go to him. today wisconsin's actual state journey at attorney general is pushing back hard on the attorney investigat

here's the associated press on that today, in wisconsin, you see the headline there, wisconsin hot it finds elections are safe and secure. this is the lead, and -- released today, did not identify any widespread fraud in the battleground state, which a key republican legislative leader said shows wisconsin's elections are quote, safe and secure. so, yes, republicans in wisconsin are persisting with their clown show audit. but, it's now being forced to go through some hoops set by, potentially the courts and wisconsin. which is probably a good thing, rationalize in that process, open enough to public scrutiny, not million do just whatever they want to calling it an investigation. and, simultaneously, today also they were forced to admit after a real audit that actually everything was fine with the election results there. hello progress, nice to meet you. i realize maybe this is the stop of bigotry of low expectations. like maybe i've seen the silver linings in water very very dark clouds, and i'm overplaying the silver. but after such a bleak news on this front for so long, those are p

congratulations, wisconsin taxpayers. the republicans in your legislature are stewarding your tax dollars very shrewdly. they're being paid with public funds. the capital times today called for the resignation of mr. gableman, the man leading the wisconsin investigation. but, you know. we'll see. as if. right? this will get worse before it gets better. in terms of exposing the overall scheme here, some interesting developments in d.c. tonight. the committee investigating the january 6th attack on the capitol by trump supporters who are trying to stop the election being certified by violently attacking the u.s. capitol, tonight that investigation sent a new subpoena to a man named jeff clark. jeff clark was the justice department official who appears to have hatched this scheme with trump to have the justice department declare publicly that there was some kind of serious fraud in the election. his idea was that the justice department would announce that and then they would direct republican-led state legislatures to ignore

investigation of wisconsin's presidential election results, right now in wisconsin, we know of two people who have been put on the public payroll to conduct this supposedly impartial investigation of wisconsin's vote. one of them recently hired was a trump white house lawyer who last year said, quote, the 2020 presidential election was stolen fair and square. that's one of the people on the payroll for that investigation. the other, the man who is actually running the audit is a former wisconsin judge who spoke at a stop the steal demonstration last year about how the election was stolen. i should also say i'm not sure why nobody else has pointed this out yet but i would note the guy wisconsin republicans have put in charge of investigating the presidential election results in that state, the guy put in charge of doing this supposedly objective just the facts investigation in addition to hiring a trump white house lawyer as apparently his sole employee for conducting this investigation, he himself was also a trump political appointee. on december 22nd last year when trump had less than a

the presiding officer: the senator from wisconsin. ms. baldwin: thank you. i rise to speak in support of legislation that i have recently joined senator warren in introducing. it's called the stop wall street looting act. and it concerns some of the practices and the business model of what i would describe as predatory private equity firms. now, before i dive into the details, i want to say that there are very good private equity companies that invest in the businesses they purchase and the communities and the workers, but unfortunately this is something that i have firsthand knowledge of is the impact of predatory private equity businesses on workers and communities in my home state of wisconsin. several historic wisconsin companies have been driven into bankruptcy or had their facilities moved overseas by the private equity funds and companies that acquired them. the first company that i want to talk about is shopko. for those who worked in the shopko -- weren't in the shopko footprint in the united states, shopko is a retailer that was founded in 1961 in

the 2020 election, the supreme court used the time and again to restrict voters access to paul's in wisconsin, alabama, florida, among other states, each time claiming it was improper to to do that so close to an election. there are three shadow docket rulings that continue as justice sotomayor put it the "trend of condoning disenfranchisement." in republican national committee versus democratic national committee, the supreme court in the shadow docket overturned a district court's injunction that gave wisconsin voters six extra days to receive and mail back absentee ballots, many of which had not been received because state authorities had been overwhelmed by record request for such ballots due to the covid pandemic, so the supreme court did not allow wisconsin voters those six extra days, and it was astounding, because they were trying to use a deadline for returning those ballots that had not even been received, so that was pretty hard to explain in my view, but the supreme court did that. in another case, the court by a 5-4 vote stayed a lower court order that sought to ensure that the d
