  1. Republicans who control the Wisconsin state Senate 💥fired eight more of Democratic Gov. Tony Evers’ appointees 💥Tuesday, including two Universities of Wisconsin #regents who voted against a deal that limited campus #diversity and four judicial #watchdogs who wouldn’t commit to punishing liberal state Supreme Court Justice Janet #Protasiewicz.
    The Senate also fired a member of the governor’s #domestic #abuse #council after Republicans accused the body of violating open records laws and taking what the GOP considered a stance against #white people, as well as a member of the deferred compensation board, which administers a state retirement program.
    The Senate has now fired 21 Evers appointees since the governor took office in 2019.
    The governor said in a statement Tuesday that he was “apoplectic” that Republican senators keep firing his appointees for no good reason.
