The Wisconsin Supreme Court on Tuesday suspended the Milwaukee judge accused of helping an illegal immigrant evade federal agents until further notice. 
The court, which has a 4-3 liberal majority, said Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan would be temporarily relieved of duty while she faced federal charges. Dugan was arrested on Friday and charged with obstruction of a federal agency and concealing a person to help them avoid arrest. 
“The court has learned that Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah C. Dugan has been charged with two federal criminal offenses, one of which is a felony and one of which is a misdemeanor,” the court wrote in an order. &#8220;In the exercise of that constitutional authority and in order to uphold the public confidence in the court of this state during the pendency of the criminal proceeding against Judge Dugan, we conclude on our own motion that it is the public interest that she be temporarily relieved of her official duty.”
It added that Dugan would be “temporarily prohibited from exercising the powers of a circuit court judge in the State of Wisconsin” until further “order of the court.” 
Lawyers for Dugan said that they disagreed with the court’s decision. 
&#8220;We are disappointed that the Court acted in unilateral fashion,&#8221; they <a href="https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/politics/2025/04/29/wisconsin-supreme-court-suspends-judge-hannah-dugan-after-charges/83354123007/">said</a>. &#8220;We continue to assert Judge Dugan’s innocence and look forward to her vindication in court.&#8221;
Federal investigators <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/25919655-1034-001-1-1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">say</a> that Dugan helped Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, an illegal immigrant from Mexico, avoid arrest by Immigration and Customs Enforcement when he showed up at the Milwaukee County Court Complex. Flores-Ruiz was charged in Milwaukee with three counts of battery-domestic abuse-infliction of physical pain or injury. He was previously deported in 2013.
According to the FBI, six members of an ICE task force showed up at the courthouse on April 18 to arrest Flores-Ruiz, where they agreed to wait to arrest him until after his domestic abuse appearance. The FBI said that Dugan had been informed of the ICE agents’ presence and “became visibly angry” and called the situation ”absurd,” according to witness interviews.
After directing the arresting ICE team to the chambers of the chief judge, Dugan returned to her courtroom and told Flores-Ruiz to leave through the “jury door” into a non-public part of the courthouse, according to charging documents. Despite leaving the courtroom through the jury door, the ICE arresting team was able to track down Flores-Ruiz outside of the courthouse, where they arrested him after a foot chase.

FBI Director Kash Patel said on Friday that federal agents arrested a Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, judge who is suspected of helping an illegal immigrant from Mexico evade Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers.
Last week, ICE agents showed up at a Milwaukee County Courthouse to arrest a Mexican citizen after a hearing before Judge Hannah Dugan. The judge directed ICE agents to wait in Chief Judge Carl Ashley&#8217;s office and then told the defendant to exit the courtroom through a side door, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel <a href="https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/local/2025/04/25/fbi-investigating-allegations-that-milwaukee-judge-helped-an-immigrant-avoid-ice-arrest-dugan/83250128007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.
&#8220;We believe Judge Dugan intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest,&#8221; Patel said in a post that was initially deleted. &#8220;Thankfully, our agents chased down the perp on foot and he’s been in custody since, but the Judge’s obstruction created increased danger to the public.&#8221; It was not immediately clear why Patel chose to initially delete the post, but he <a href="https://x.com/FBIDirectorKash/status/1915800907318468626?t=HrEySSHIGQFX5NqPMVpOpQ&amp;s=19">reposted</a> the same statement a short while later.
The FBI director added that the bureau would share more information &#8220;soon&#8221; and thanked the FBI&#8217;s Milwaukee field office for its work in arresting the judge.
United States Attorney General Pam Bondi also confirmed Dugan&#8217;s arrest in a<a href="https://x.com/AGPamBondi/status/1915799429455516128?t=8UTJOJOvUBSzY_rn896eDg&amp;s=19"> post</a> to X, stating, &#8220;I can confirm that our @FBI agents just arrested Hannah Dugan – a county judge in Milwaukee – for allegedly helping an illegal alien avoid an arrest by @ICEgov. No one is above the law.&#8221; 
According to Chief Judge Ashley, who sent an email to other judges about the incident, ICE agents showed a warrant for the illegal immigrant&#8217;s arrest and followed courthouse protocols. Dugan, who has served on the bench for nine years, responded to that email, however, saying &#8220;a warrant was not presented&#8221; to her.
ICE agents have <a href="https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/breaking/2025/04/25/milwaukee-county-judge-hannah-dugan-arrested-by-feds-at-courthouse/83270885007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">routinely</a> shown up at the Milwaukee County Courthouse in recent weeks with arrest warrants. In the past two months, two suspected illegal immigrants were arrested by federal agents in the courthouse hallways.
During Trump&#8217;s first term in office, a Massachusetts judge was <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/us/politics/fbi-arrest-judge.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">charged</a> by the Justice Department with obstructing immigration agents after she and a court officer allegedly helped an illegal immigrant sneak out the back door of the courthouse. The federal government later dropped the charges after the judge agreed to go through potential judicial discipline.

Green Bay Packers legend and Super Bowl winner Clay Matthews delivered a &#8220;message&#8221; he joked came from President Donald Trump aimed at rival Chicago Bears on Thursday night during the opening night of the NFL Draft.
Ahead of the first pick of the draft, Matthews, who played linebacker for the Packers for 10 seasons, took to the podium at the draft in Green Bay in front of NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to take a well-timed shot at the Bears.
&#8220;I&#8217;m gonna go off script here real quick &#8230; Roger,&#8221; Matthews said, flanked by other former Packers greats up on stage. &#8220;I just got off the phone with the president, Donald Trump. He asked me to pass a message along to all 32 NFL franchises. Let me tell you what it reads here, alright.&#8221;
&#8220;It says, &#8216;My fellow Americans, the Bears still suck!'&#8221; Matthews chanted into the microphone to the cheering crowd.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Matthews made the comments as he was surrounded by other former Packers like Jordy Nelson, Mason Crosby, Ahman Green, and James Jones. Earlier in the night, the former Packers linebacker had biked out onto the stage alongside Goodell, mimicking a Packer tradition where players ride young fans&#8217; bikes during training camp.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
As a Packer, Matthews went 16-3 against the Bears as he played from 2009-2018 during the Aaron Rodgers era. In 2011, Matthews and the Packers defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl 31-25. In that game, Matthews forced a fumble in the fourth quarter that proved to be a critical turning point.
Other Packer legends have developed a close association with Trump in recent years. Three time MVP and Super Bowl winner Brett Favre <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/packers-legend-brett-favre-rallies-for-trump-time-to-bench-kamala" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was outspoken</a> about his support for Trump during the 2024 presidential election. The former quarterback even appeared at an event in Green Bay days before the election to rally support for Trump.
“I can tell you one thing, I knew I would come back to Green Bay at various times, but I never thought I would come back in this setting,” Favre said at the time. &#8220;Much like the Packer organization, Donald Trump and his organization is a winner. The United States of America won with his leadership.&#8221;
Trump ended up defeating Kamala Harris by just under 30,000 votes in Wisconsin.

A Wisconsin teenager charged with the murder of his parents was allegedly plotting to assassinate President Donald Trump, according to the FBI.
An FBI <a href="https://htv-prod-media.s3.amazonaws.com/files/casap-fed-sw-67f9cbaa7affd.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">affidavit</a> unsealed on Sunday said that 17-year-old Nikita Casap murdered his parents as part of an alleged plan to assassinate Trump and overthrow the American government. A manifesto cited by the FBI in the affidavit revealed a plan to kill Trump in order to sow chaos in the United States.
Casap was already <a href="https://www.waukeshacounty.gov/media/0yqgp1rd/03-27-25-cider-hills-update.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">under arrest</a> by the Waukesha County Sheriff’s Department for the murder of Tatiana Casap and stepfather Donald Mayer. Their bodies were uncovered by law enforcement officers after Casap did not show up to school for two weeks, and they were asked to perform a welfare check.
According to the FBI, they were murdered as part of Casap’s plan to kill Trump.
“He was in touch with other parties about his plan to kill the President and overthrow the government of the United States. And he paid for, at least in part, a drone and explosives to be used as a weapon of mass destruction to commit and attack. The killing of his parents appeared to be an effort to obtain the financial means and autonomy necessary to carrying out his plan,” the FBI application for a search warrant said.
“Other parties, with whom Casap was in contact, appear to have been aware of his plan and actions and to have provided assistance to Casap in carrying them out,” the agency added.
The affidavit was provided in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin to show probable cause that Casap was engaged in a conspiracy to kill the president and an attempt to use a weapon of mass destruction.
The FBI investigation said that Casap had adopted radical views, and wanted to kill Trump and possibly Vice President JD Vance to “bring some chaos.” He allegedly wanted to bring down the government because he believed that the American government was controlled by Jews.
“It is clear that the jews control all of the White countries, and it is clear that they promote White genocide and degeneracy. This for the white race to survive, it is necessary to accelerate the collapse of the countries,” a portion of his alleged manifesto included in the affidavit said.
The manifesto also included the line, “HAIL HITLER HAIL THE WHITE RACE HAIL VICTORY.” 
The FBI said that Casap planned to flee to Ukraine after the attack and was communicating with a male in Russia about the plans.

Former Governor Scott Walker (R-WI) repeatedly fact-checked CNN anchor Abby Phillip during a Tuesday evening interview, pushing back as she tried to claim that Elon Musk said his Department Of Government Efficiency project would cut Social Security while speaking at a recent town hall event in Wisconsin.
Walker interrupted Phillip several times throughout the interview, refuting her claim she attributed Democratic talking points.

Phillip brought Musk into the discussion, noting that he had poured millions of dollars into the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, and then referenced a recent town hall in Green Bay, asking, &#8220;Is it a risk for Republicans to put all their eggs in that basket — not only did he spend the money, he came to the state. He came to the state, he talked about cutting Medicaid, Social Security through DOGE, bringing those issues up —&#8221;
&#8220;Actually, he never talked about that. He explicitly said in Green Bay that he would NOT cut social security,&#8221; Walker pushed back.
&#8220;Well, he talked —&#8221; Phillip tried to cut Walker off. &#8220;— at his rallies.&#8221;
&#8220;That’s exactly what he said,&#8221; Walked continued. &#8220;Other people said that, but I was there! I watched him! He did not say he was going to cut Medicaid.&#8221;
&#8220;All right, well, other people at his rallies, who work for DOGE, who work for Elon Musk&#8217;s organization, talked about those issues,&#8221; Phillip tried again.
&#8220;No,&#8221; Walker was not having it. &#8220;I was at the rally, not a one of them said that.&#8221;
&#8220;Do you think that —&#8221; Phillip said.
&#8220;That&#8217;s what the protesters said, but none of the people there actually said that,&#8221; Walker said.
&#8220;Do you think that there are risks here?&#8221; Phillip finally got her question out. &#8220;For Republicans and those issues being associated with Elon Musk?&#8221;
&#8220;There are if people believe the lies that people are saying about that, but that&#8217;s not at all what they said. If people believe that Medicaid and Medicare&#8217;s going to be touched, that&#8217;s just a flat — outright lie.&#8221;
Walker went on to say that Musk and DOGE had looked at Social Security and had found people who were on the list to be paid who were 120 years old and obviously no longer living – and that the organization&#8217;s goal was to root out similar waste, fraud, and abuse in other departments as well.

President Donald Trump said Republicans should have the upper hand in Wisconsin &#8220;for years to come&#8221; after the state voted on Tuesday to enshrine voter ID requirements in its constitution.
More than 60% of voters <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/04/01/us/elections/results-wisconsin-question.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">approved</a> the constitutional amendment, which will make it more difficult to roll back voter ID requirements. While Wisconsin state law has required voter ID since 2011, Republicans who pushed for the constitutional amendment argued that it was necessary to prevent Democrats or the liberal state Supreme Court from undoing the law in the future.
Trump took to Truth Social Tuesday night to celebrate the approval of voter ID requirements in the swing state, saying that it was possibly the &#8220;biggest win of the night&#8221; for Republicans, a party that also cruised to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/republicans-sweep-in-florida-special-elections-congratulations-to-america?topStoryPosition=undefined" target="_blank" rel="noopener">victories</a> in two special elections in Florida to hold onto U.S. House seats.
&#8220;VOTER I.D. JUST APPROVED IN WISCONSIN ELECTION. Democrats fought hard against this, presumably so they can CHEAT. This is a BIG WIN FOR REPUBLICANS, MAYBE THE BIGGEST WIN OF THE NIGHT,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114265988202750791" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>. &#8220;IT SHOULD ALLOW US TO WIN WISCONSIN, LIKE I JUST DID IN THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, FOR MANY YEARS TO COME!&#8221;
After Joe Biden won the presidency in 2020, Trump and Republicans pushed for voter ID laws across the country, arguing that states that lack such laws make elections susceptible to widespread fraud. Voter ID laws are also extremely popular among Americans. A <a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/652523/americans-endorse-early-voting-voter-verification.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gallup poll</a> from October showed that 84% of those surveyed approve of photo identification being required at polling places, compared to just 15% who said they are opposed.
Illegal immigration has been another issue driving the push for voter identification as unlawfully present migrants have been found on state voter rolls and, in some cases, have been <a href="https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/19-foreign-nationals-indicted-illegally-voting-2016-elections" target="_blank" rel="noopener">indicted</a> for voting in elections. Despite the high support for voter verification laws, Democrats have largely opposed such efforts, arguing that they disenfranchise voters and decrease participation in elections.
The Wisconsin voter ID amendment passed overwhelmingly as voters also chose to elect a leftist to the state&#8217;s Supreme Court. Judge Susan Crawford won the election over conservative candidate Brad Schimel, who was endorsed by Trump and supported by more than <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/us/elon-musk-wisconsin-supreme-court.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$20 million</a> from Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and allied groups. During a rally for Schimel on Sunday, Musk said that the “entire destiny of humanity” could be impacted by the Wisconsin Supreme Court race as it could help Democrats gain House seats in the Midwest state.
While he spent time and energy trying to push Schimel over the line, Musk <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1905789301557715397" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> last week that the voter ID amendment is &#8220;even more important than the Wisconsin Supreme Court race.&#8221; Early Wednesday morning, Musk celebrated the passage of the voter ID amendment, <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1907300849199546454" target="_blank" rel="noopener">writing</a>, &#8220;This was the most important thing.&#8221;

Voter ID

Leftist Judge Susan Crawford won a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court on Tuesday, keeping the court in the control of liberal justices.
Crawford&#8217;s win comes after the most expensive judicial campaign in American history, as more than $90 million was spent on the race. Crawford defeated conservative candidate Brad Schimel, who was endorsed by President Donald Trump and backed by Trump&#8217;s top donor, Elon Musk.
With an estimated 98.1% of the vote counted on Wednesday morning, Crawford had 55% support (1,286,748 votes) compared to Schimel&#8217;s 45% (1,050,816 votes). High turnout in the Democratic strongholds of Milwaukee and Dane counties fueled Crawford&#8217;s victory. While the liberal justice won, Wisconsin voters overwhelmingly voted to add a voter ID requirement to the state constitution in a win for Republicans.
Schimel&#8217;s campaign was boosted by Musk and his America PAC, while Crawford was supported by a cadre of leftist billionaires like George Soros and Illinois Democratic Governor JB Pritzker. Before becoming a judge, Crawford worked as a lawyer for Planned Parenthood and filed lawsuits to block the state&#8217;s voter ID laws, earning her a label as &#8220;dangerously liberal&#8221; by the Wisconsin Republican Party.
Both parties saw the race as pivotal for the United States House of Representatives as Democrats are now expected to challenge Wisconsin’s congressional maps since Crawford&#8217;s victory has allowed liberal justices on the court to maintain a 4-3 majority. Leftist activists hope that the court will strike down Wisconsin&#8217;s current congressional maps and mandate election maps more favorable to Democrats.
This view was made clear in January when Crawford appeared on a fundraising call, which billed the Supreme Court race as a “chance to put two more House seats in play for 2026.&#8221; That same view was echoed earlier this month by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY).
“There are gerrymandered congressional lines right now in Wisconsin,” Jeffries said. “As soon as possible, we need to be able to revisit that and have fair lines. The only way for that to be even a significant possibility is if you have an enlightened Supreme Court.”
Crawford&#8217;s victory could also determine how the court rules on issues like abortion, voter ID laws, and union reforms.
The Women Speak Out PAC, a partner of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, said it was disappointed by the election results.
“Tonight’s results are disappointing and a blow for human rights and the rule of law. We mourn the lives that will be lost and the women and girls who will be harmed under a Wisconsin Supreme Court with an activist liberal majority,&#8221; said the PAC&#8217;s Political Communications Director Kelsey Pritchard. &#8220;Republican voters should heed this race as a warning on becoming complacent following the wins last November.&#8221;

‘Dangerously Liberal’ Judge Wins Wisconsin Supreme Court Race

Congress

Voters in Wisconsin will decide the ideological majority of the state Supreme Court on Tuesday after a record-setting spending bonanza from backers of conservative candidate Brad Schimel and liberal candidate Susan Crawford. 
Polls opened at 7:00 a.m. local time in the race billed as one that could determine control of the U.S. House of Representatives as Democrats are expected to challenge congressional maps if Crawford wins. The $90 million spent on the race is about $40 million more than the 2023 Wisconsin Supreme Court race, which was the previous record holder for the most expensive state judicial race in history. 
Wisconsinites will also be voting on an amendment that, if approved, would add a voter identification requirement to the state constitution, strengthening the voter ID policy that is already part of state law. 
President Donald Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114263052221266871" target="_blank" rel="noopener">urged</a> his supporters to get out and vote for the voter ID amendment and Schimel. 
“There is a very important Referendum (Question 1) on the Ballot to amend the State Constitution to require VOTER ID. This, and other Election Integrity measures, including banning Drop Boxes, and Same Day Voting with Paper Ballots, can only happen if you GET OUT AND VOTE TODAY,” Trump posted on Truth Social on Tuesday. 
“For State Supreme Court, make sure to Vote for America First Patriot, Brad Schimel, against Susan Crawford, a Radical Left Liberal, with a History of letting child molesters and rapists off easy. She will be one of the most Liberal Judges ever elected, which would be a DISASTER for Wisconsin and, the United States of America,” he added. 
Already, 644,800 absentee ballots were cast during early voting throughout the state, WiscPolitics <a href="https://www.wispolitics.com/2025/wisconsinites-cast-nearly-655k-ballots-ahead-of-election-day/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. About 31.9% of these ballots were cast in the liberal strongholds of Dane and Milwaukee counties, while the traditionally Republican-leaning “WOW” counties of Washington, Ozaukee, and Waukesha made up about 19%. 
Schimel has been backed heavily by Elon Musk, whose America PAC has spent millions on the race, while Crawford has been supported by Democrat donors like George Soros. Musk appeared in Green Bay on Sunday, where he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/musk-says-wisconsin-supreme-court-election-is-a-vote-for-which-party-controls-the-house" target="_blank" rel="noopener">handed out</a> $1 million checks to two Wisconsin voters who had signed a petition circulated by his PAC to oppose “activist judges.&#8221; 
“What’s happening on Tuesday is a vote for which party controls the U.S. House of Representatives. That is why it is so significant. And whichever party controls the House, to a significant degree controls the country, which then steers the course of Western Civilization,” Musk said.
Many Democrats have been thinking the same thing, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). 
“There are gerrymandered congressional lines right now in Wisconsin,” Jeffries said earlier this month. “As soon as possible, we need to be able to revisit that and have fair lines. The only way for that to be even a significant possibility is if you have an enlightened Supreme Court.”
Polls in Wisconsin close at 8:00 p.m. local time. While the state&#8217;s last Supreme Court race was called within a couple of hours of the polls closing, the 2024 presidential race in Wisconsin wasn&#8217;t called until early morning the following day.

Wisconsin Voters Head To Polls After Most Expensive State Judicial Race In American History

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk mocked billionaire George Soros from a rally stage in Wisconsin on Sunday after leftist protesters attempted to disrupt his efforts to campaign for conservative Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel.
Musk declared that the Wisconsin Supreme Court race was about more than just who might serve on the court for the next decade — and could have a lasting impact on the balance of power in the United States House of Representatives.
As he spoke, however, protesters attempted to interrupt him — and he fired right back.

After pausing briefly to take in what the protesters were saying, Musk replied, &#8220;It was inevitable that at least a few Soros operatives would be in the audience.&#8221;
The majority of the audience laughed and cheered as Musk waved at the protesters and smiled. &#8220;Give my regards to George,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Say hi to George for me.&#8221;
The crowd quickly broke out in chants of, &#8220;U.S.A.! U.S.A.!&#8221; — which Musk joined as well.
&#8220;I mean, it was inevitable,&#8221; Musk laughed as the chants died down. &#8220;I was waiting for that one.&#8221;
Wisconsin voters will decide on Tuesday whether to elect Schimel, currently a judge on the Waukesha County Circuit Court, or Dane County Circuit Court Judge Susan Crawford — and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/musk-says-wisconsin-supreme-court-election-is-a-vote-for-which-party-controls-the-house" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to Musk</a>, that election could ultimately impact the Republicans&#8217; very slim majority in the U.S. House.
&#8220;What’s happening on Tuesday is a vote for which party controls the U.S. House of Representatives. That is why it is so significant. And whichever party controls the House, to a significant degree controls the country, which then steers the course of Western Civilization,&#8221; Musk said.
The goal for Democrats, if they are able to elect Crawford, is to get the Supreme Court to order redrawn district maps that would allow them to map two typically Republican districts out of existence.

Wisconsin voters will head to the polls on Tuesday to decide the ideological slant of the State Supreme Court, bringing to a close the most expensive state judicial race in history.
The race — between conservative candidate Brad Schimel and liberal Judge Susan Crawford — will have nationwide consequences, as Democrats are expected to challenge Wisconsin&#8217;s current congressional maps if Crawford wins. The outcome could also determine how the court rules on abortion, voter identification laws, and union reforms.
Schimel, the former Republican Attorney General of Wisconsin, said in a recent interview that he is running to save the court from activist judges like Crawford, saying the court has turned into the &#8220;most dangerous&#8221; body in state government under its current 4-3 liberal majority.
&#8220;I didn&#8217;t plan to run for Wisconsin Supreme Court, but in 2023 the liberals took over our court by promising how they were going to rule on cases and then they&#8217;ve been delivering on that. They have been going through a checklist of a political agenda,&#8221; he <a href="https://x.com/TeamSchimel/status/1904640733723664890" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>.
&#8220;My opponent is their handpicked choice to select a liberal that&#8217;s retiring, and she&#8217;s gone so far on the campaign trail and promised to liberal national donors that if she gets elected, she will take out two Republican congressional seats and turn those into Democrat congressional seats.&#8221;
Schimel was <a href="https://x.com/TeamSchimel/status/1884660331202457735" target="_blank" rel="noopener">referring</a> to Crawford&#8217;s appearance on a January fundraising call which billed the Supreme Court race as a &#8220;chance to put two more House seats in play for 2026.&#8221;
Democrats believe that if Crawford wins on Tuesday, they will be able to get the Supreme Court to order maps more favorable to their party. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries echoed that perspective last week on X.
“There are gerrymandered congressional lines right now in Wisconsin,” Jeffries said. “As soon as possible, we need to be able to revisit that and have fair lines. The only way for that to be even a significant possibility is if you have an enlightened Supreme Court.”
That prospect has drawn major donations to the race, and sparked action from Elon Musk, who has been actively urging voters in Wisconsin to back the conservative candidate.
&#8220;Vote for Superjudge Brad Schimel in Wisconsin on Tuesday!! The Republican House majority is razor-thin and the Democrats want to redraw Wisconsin districts to flip the House and stop the government reforms,&#8221; Musk posted on X on Sunday.
A record-breaking $90 million has<a href="https://www.wispolitics.com/2025/supreme-court-spending-eclipses-90m/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> reportedly</a> been poured into the race, pitting leftist megadonors like George Soros and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker against Musk, whose America PAC has been very active in the race. The spending total broke the previously-held record for most expensive state judicial race, when liberals <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/liberal-wisconsin-judge-wins-supreme-court-race-flips-balance-of-court" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first flipped</a> control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court in 2023.
Musk held a town hall on Sunday evening with Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson (R.), where he gave out $1 million each to two people who had signed a petition circulated by his PAC opposing activist judges. Any registered Wisconsin voter who signed the petition got $100, mirroring a similar strategy Musk rolled out in swing states during the 2024 presidential election.
Wisconsin&#8217;s Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul attempted to stop Musk&#8217;s giveaway over the weekend, but was unsuccessful.
Musk&#8217;s America PAC&#8217;s ads targeting Crawford have focused on her record as a judge giving light sentences to sex offenders. One spot highlighted a case where she <a href="https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/politics/2025/02/11/what-to-know-about-the-court-cases-in-brad-schimels-supreme-court-ads/78214352007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sentenced</a> a man convicted of sexually assaulting two young girls in a pool to just four years in prison, well below what prosecutors had requested and the maximum penalty that could have been imposed.
When asked about the case, Crawford said that she doesn&#8217;t &#8220;regret&#8221; the decision, asserting that she followed the law.
Crawford has decried Musk&#8217;s involvement in the race, claiming that Schimel will be a rubber-stamp for Musk and President Donald Trump.
Crawford is currently a judge in liberal Dane County, but has a history of liberal advocacy. Before becoming a judge, she worked as a lawyer for Planned Parenthood, sued to stop the state&#8217;s voter ID laws, and filed a lawsuit against Act 10, a Republican-backed measure that enacted serious reforms for government unions.
The early vote total has reportedly passed 500,000. Republicans will likely need high Election Day turnout for Schimel to win, as Trump narrowly won the state in 2024 by about 30,000 votes. In the 2023 Supreme Court election, the Republican-backed candidate lost by over 10 points.
Conservative groups like SBA Pro-Life America and CatholicVote have urged Trump supporters to show in force for Schimel.
&#8220;President Trump carried Wisconsin in his swing-state sweep because of Catholics. Trump earned a huge double digit Catholic voter win, putting him over the top in the tight race in the Badger state,&#8221; CatholicVote senior political advisor Steve Cortes told The Daily Wire. &#8220;Now, we encourage those same voters to come out for the state Supreme Court race, because of the wide implications that will flow from this election.”
Trump, who endorsed Schimel, has said that the future of the country could be at stake in the election.
“It’s a very important race, actually,” Trump said last week. “I know you feel it’s local, but it’s not. It’s really much more than local. The whole country is watching.”

Here’s What’s At Stake In Wisconsin’s Supreme Court Election

Elon Musk said Sunday that the &#8220;entire destiny&#8221; of humanity could be impacted by the upcoming Wisconsin Supreme Court race on Tuesday.
Musk made the comments during a rally in Green Bay where he urged attendees to show up and vote for conservative judicial candidate Brad Schimel. Schimel is running against liberal Judge Susan Crawford in a race that will determine the ideological slant of the court.
&#8220;What&#8217;s happening on Tuesday is a vote for which party controls the U.S. House of Representatives. That is why it is so significant. And whichever party controls the House, to a significant degree controls the country, which then steers the course of Western Civilization,&#8221; Musk said, adding that he thought the &#8220;entire destiny of humanity&#8221; could be impacted by the race. 
Democrats believe that if Crawford wins on Tuesday, they will be able to get the Supreme Court to order maps more favorable to their party and get rid of two Republican seats. Musk said that the work of the Trump administration to reform the government would be seriously hindered if Republicans lost the House.
Musk, who walked out on stage wearing a cheesehead to a cheering crowd, said that the odds were currently stacked against Schimel, saying that conservatives were going to have to pull a rabbit out of the hat to win.

Elon Musk explains how the odds are currently stacked against the GOP in Wisconsin:
“We’ve gotta pull a rabbit out of the hat next level. We actually have to have a steady stream of rabbits out of the hat… We need to generate an anomaly in the matrix.”

“The single biggest challenge, I think, is actually just making people aware that there is this very important election. And its both very important election for Judge Schimel as well as deciding on adding voter ID to the Wisconsin constitution, which is very, very important,&#8221; Musk said. 
Musk also announced that two Wisconsin residents, Nicholas Jacobs and Ekaterina Diestler, would be awarded $1 million after they signed a petition to stop activists judges. Musk said the purpose of the checks was &#8220;to get attention” and said that it had caused the &#8220;legacy media to lose their minds.&#8221;
The Supreme Court on Sunday declined to rule on a lawsuit from Democrat state Attorney General Josh Kaul seeking to block the payments.
Musk announced another initiative at the rally that would pay people $20 for every photo they submit of a Wisconsin resident with a picture of Brad Schimel in one hand and a thumbs up in the other.

Musk was joined at the rally by GOP Senator Ron Johnson and Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy.
“We need to return our Supreme Court to one that has justices and judges. And by that I mean people who will apply the law, not alter it,” Johnson said. “We’re not looking for super legislators.”
Johnson said that Crawford would be likely to vote overturn Act 10, a Republican-backed measure that brought dramatic reforms to government labor unions, and to redistrict Republican congressional districts.
