Some Wisconsin Republican group, obviously experiencing an emergency for their party as it’s likely that Milwaukee Judge Janet Protasiewicz has an edge over MAGA former state Supreme Court Justice Dan Kelly in Tuesday’s big election, texted this batshittery out while the southern part of the state was under a tornado watch on Friday, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.
There’s a chance they might have violated FCC rules in doing so – it definitely would’ve been illegal to play this one on television. Texting this out is a little more ambiguous. “For the Republican Party of Wisconsin to send this fake emergency alert on behalf of Dan Kelly at a time when many Wisconsinites are under the first Tornado Watch of the season is abhorrent, dangerous, and profoundly irresponsible,” said Wisconsin Dem Party Director Devin Remiker in a statement.
