................Friday's flag-raising marked the continuation of a tradition started by Evers' administration. It's the sixth year the Pride Flag has flown above the state Capitol.
....................................
...................In December and April, Evers vetoed bills that would have banned gender-affirming medical care for those under 18 and banned transgender and gender nonconforming youth from participating on school athletic teams that align with their gender identity.
“You're damn right I vetoed every one of those bills, just as I always will,” Evers said....................
Guilty verdict will likely not affect plans for intel briefings for Trump

When he becomes the Republican nominee, he will still be briefed, despite his conviction in the hush money case and despite facing a trial on charges of mishandling classified info.

..................The intelligence briefings for presidential nominees are not mandated by law but are a custom dating back to 1952, designed to ensure a smooth transition of power and to prepare a prospective commander in chief for office. The presidential nominees do not require a security clearance to receive the briefings and a felony conviction against a nominee would not prevent the briefings from proceeding.
Larry Pfeiffer, a former chief of staff at the CIA and now the director of the Hayden Center for Intelligence at George Mason University, said the intelligence briefings typically provide information that is not top secret but at a lower level of classification. The briefings “would very likely not include information about sources or methods” behind the intelligence, he said.
“The fact that Trump has now been convicted of fraud sadly provides further evidence that the former president holds the concept of trust in very low regard. Trust is fundamentally what makes our system of protecting secrets work,” Pfeiffer told NBC News..........................................
During his time at the White House, Trump was accused of revealing secret information during a conversation with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and when he tweeted an image of an Iranian satellite launch. After he left office, he was indicted on federal criminal charges of allegedly retaining a trove of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.

Mike Johnson on the Trump verdict: I do believe the Supreme Court should step in...
Geez!!
Mike Johnson on the Trump verdict: I do believe the Supreme Court should step in...I think that the Justices on the Court - I know many of them personally - I think they are deeply concerned about that, as we are. So I think they'll set this straight...

Congratulations to @GOP Sen. Susan Collins on remaining a piece of trash, who sold her soul and her morals out.

Susan Collins all but calling the Trump prosecution 'rigged' -- but one might ask why, if she had such serious qualms about the process, she waited to say so till AFTER her guy was convicted.
Makes you wonder if maybe, just maybe, she's not operating in good faith. #mepolitics

Trump supporters burst into tears outside the courthouse as they learn of Trump guilty verdict.
I posted some pics of maga folks crying 2 days ago when the jury went out for their decision.
I wonder if they have been crying for 2 days. ??

I am not sure how this works! If out on bail--he did walk out of the Courthouse today.
So, I do not know if these apply while he is appealing.
Donald Trump now cannot:
- vote
- serve in the military
- get a security clearance
- visit most other foreign countries
Tough to see how he can be president, right?
