The shameless Scott Walker, our sloganeering governor, is counting on a widespread outbreak of voter amnesia on November 6



Walker can run but he can't hide from this kind of headline.



Original 10/1/2017 post, "Providing some context to a Scott Walker education funding tweet", starts here.

What Scott Walker tweeted

What he left out
In fact, in February 2012 we rated True a broader claim -- that Walker had enacted "the biggest cuts to education in our state's history." The $1.2 billion in reductions included $792 million in direct state aid to kindergarten-through-12th grade schools, which is the focus of the new Greater Wisconsin Committee ad.  (PolitiFact Wisconsin)

My version of Walker's tweet to illustrate the cuts to education funding that took effect as a result of Walker's first budget.
