Scott Walker's Foxconn fantasy vs. current reality

 

Headline:  Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 9/16/2022

There have been high profile announcements promising production of flat screen televisions, coffee kiosks and electric vehicles. None have come to fruition. And the company has not provided any media tours or updates. 

One person, who has spent the last 90 days working at Foxconn, said workers at one building in the massive complex are assembling motherboards — a crucial part of computer hardware — for Google and Amazon. 

The worker's comments — and a video he made — provide a rare insight into the puzzling and secretive operations at the massive Racine County facility touted by former President Donald Trump as the "eighth wonder of the world."

GET ME REWRITE: GOP show its true colors, sez it's 'inappropriate' to encourage people to vote

 

Headline:  Wisconsin State Journal, 9/15/2022

When Jason Calvi, a political reporter for WITI-TV (FOX6), asked Johnson about possible criticism that could follow the publicly supported GOTV efforts, Johnson replied "There's certainly a role for local government to play" in encouraging residents to get to the polls. [emphasis added]

Republicans are still raising concerns. They are calling it "Zuckerbucks 2.0," a reference to how more than 200 Wisconsin communities cumulatively (and legally) accepted millions of dollars in grants to support election efforts prior to the 2020 presidential election from the nonprofit Center for Tech and Civic Life. CTCL was funded by hundreds of millions of dollars from Priscilla Chan and her husband, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

Black people voting?  Heaven forbid!

Headline:  News10, 9/14/2022

A new privately funded get-out-the-vote initiative in Wisconsin’s largest and most Democratic city has the support of Milwaukee’s mayor, but Republicans say it’s an attempt by Democrats to improperly bolster turnout in the narrowly divided battleground state. 

The controversy over the Milwaukee Votes 2022 initiative echoes concerns raised by Republicans in 2020 when a Mark Zuckerberg-funded group distributed millions of dollars in grants to support local elections offices in Wisconsin and throughout the country as COVID-19 complicated the presidential election.
