In April, even before Gov. Tony Evers issued his safer-at-home order, Wisconsinites were staying at home more than ever. But anonymized cellphone data from San Francisco-based data company SafeGraph shows that by September, people were leaving home at pre-pandemic rates.

Throughout the pandemic, Evers has been at loggerheads with Republican leaders over the scope of his and the state health department’s authority on mask mandates, dining restrictions and stay-at-home orders..............................

My guess is that Trump is raging more about losing twitter account than anything else at this time.





After his account was permanently banned by Twitter, President Trump attempted to tweet from the @POTUS
account.

The 4 tweets were swiftly removed.

Benefits Trump will lose if impeached a second time.

I also read trump would lose lifetime security clearance.

I do not know if this is true--as I have not seen an official document. So take with a grain of salt

Source: the hill



By Cameron Jenkins - 01/08/21 01:03 PM EST


Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) tore into Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Twitter on Friday after he tweeted his disapproval of any motion to impeach President Trump following the rioting at the Capitol this week.

"As President @realDonaldTrump stated last night, it is time to heal and move on," Graham tweeted Friday, referring to the president's video remarks condemning violence from his supporters at the Capitol Wednesday.

"If Speaker Pelosi pushes [impeachment] in the last days of the Trump presidency it will do more harm than good. I’m hopeful President-elect Biden sees the damage that would be done from such action."...........................

Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski calls on President Trump to resign, questions her future as a Republic

Source: adn.com

Updated: 18 minutes ago calendar Published 47 minutes ago

............................
“I want him to resign. I want him out. He has caused enough damage,” Murkowski, R-Alaska, said during an interview from her small Capitol office, steps away from the Senate chambers that were invaded by pro-Trump rioters on Wednesday.

“I think he should leave. He said he’s not going to show up. He’s not going to appear at the at the inauguration. He hasn’t been focused on what is going on with COVID. He’s either been golfing or he’s been inside the Oval Office fuming and throwing every single person who has been loyal and faithful to him under the bus, starting with the vice president. He doesn’t want to stay there. He only wants to stay there for the title. He only wants to stay there for his ego. He needs to get out. He needs to do the good thing, but I don’t think he’s capable of doing a good thing,” she said.

Trump to blame for riot, Murkowski says

Murkowski said that while “there may have been many, many, many, many good Americans who came to Washington, D.C., because they felt strongly in support of this president,” Trump incited them to storm the Capitol after a speech near the Washington Monument.
