GET ME REWRITE: Wisconsin MAGA queen Janel Brandtjen inserts herself into the national conversation in a blatant way (with an assist from Scott Walker)

 
HeadlineBrennan Center for Justice, 3/14/2024
The scheme to funnel money to Steen was particularly blatant. According to an investigation authorized by the commission, Steen’s campaign struck up arrangements with State Rep. Janel Brandtjen (R), a vocal election denier; Save America, Trump’s joint fundraising committee; and three county GOP organizations to disguise individuals’ donations as having come from parties. 
Potential donors were informed that by sending checks to the Langlade County Republican Party and earmarking them with Vos’s district number, their money would be forwarded to the Steen campaign — a clear violation of state law. The evidence includes county GOP meeting minutes, checks, interviews by investigators with those involved, and at least one recorded conversation. 
The roots of this scandal go back to 2015, when then-Gov. Scott Walker (R) and the state legislature, led in part by Vos, significantly deregulated state campaign finance laws and gutted enforcement. [emphasis added]
