Republicans seek to jail more WI officials as part of review of 2020 election

Taxpayers are paying for this bullshit.

Wisconsin Republicans seek to jail more officials as part of their review of the 2020 presidential election
https://news.yahoo.com/wisconsin-republicans-seek-jail-more-011602592.html

MADISON – Assembly Republicans sought Friday to jail the chairwoman of the state Elections Commission, Racine’s mayor and other officials as part of their months-long review of the 2020 presidential election.

The court filing marked the latest shift in approach for Michael Gableman, a former state Supreme Court justice who is leading the review for the Republicans. Three days ago, he abandoned far-reaching subpoenas he issued in January to the immigrant rights group Voces de la Frontera Action.

A month ago an attorney working with Gableman told a judge he was hoping to avoid trying to jail the mayors of Madison and Green Bay.

But on Friday Gableman intensified his efforts, telling Waukesha County Circuit Judge Ralph Ramirez he should incarcerate those mayors and others if they don’t sit for interviews with him behind closed doors.

Granted, they shouldn't have to sit for interviews tied to this farcical investigation by the sore losers. Still this whole process is a massive and corrupt abuse of power.
