Stronger Wisconsin Fund -Vos and RPW

Vos and RPW are Desperate

In past posts I’ve asked the question - when referring to the “Stronger Wisconsin Fund” as Paul Newman asked repeatedly in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid “Who are those guys?” We can stop asking that question - it appears it is Robin Vos and the RPW behind the false and clandesent attacks on conservatives that won’t blindly follow the swamp.

Stronger Wisconsin Fund

If you don't read anything else today, read this!

Wednesday evening (July 31), I posted the Facebook post below. Yesterday (Thursday August 1) Tim Ramthun and I appeared on the Regular Joe Show to discuss the tactics the “Stronger Wisconsin Fund” is using to prop up RINO’s and trash conservative candidates. By 6pm, Fox 6 in Milwaukee ran the story. Everything is linked below.

From Facebook - So... Stronger Wisconsin Fund has spent over $400K propping up their RINO candidates and lying about the conservative candidates. The people who are listed as contacts for this group include a lawyer who has recently represented Robin Vos in election cases, and whose law firm has done much work for the RPW. So, this is what the swamp has come down to. They can't win on their own merits, so they spend a ton of money lying about their opponents. They do this because the money train needs to continue. A $100 billion state budget has plenty for all the lobbyists and club members. They must stay in power, or they will be exposed. Sound familiar? Yeah, they're no different than the democrats.

You need to ask the people who are being propped up here. Dan Feyen, Dan Knodl, Kevin Petersen, Brian Hilbelink, Karen Hurd, and the others, why can't you win an honest debate? I mean my Lord, how bad is the internal polling that this front group for the swamp has to resort to these kinds of tactics?

Ask Scott Krug and Shae Sortwell and the rest of the gang, is this what you would allow your party to come to? How is this going to play out for you in the months to come when it’s discovered that the majority of the republican legislators in Wisconsin won their elections by outright lying? I really don't think that the Republican voters are going to take to kindly to it and let me guarantee you, the Stronger Wisconsin Fund will be exposed.

It's a shameful day for the Republican Party of Wisconsin.

See the CF-7S report here.

Here are my notes for the Regular Joe Show:

1.       The Stronger Wisconsin Fund is a group that has spent over $400k promoting establishment candidates and opposing conservative candidates. 

2.      Who is the Stronger Wisconsin Fund? Great Question. They are a secret, hidden in the shadows group and like all such entities, they are up to no good. The Stronger Wisconsin Fund and their candidates are EVERYTHING that’s wrong with politics. It takes a substantial investigator who knows how to research these groups to expose them. The good news is we have such a person and she’s phenomenal.

3.      The mailing address for the group, the address that they use on their flyers is in Eau Claire Wi, BUT, the business there, Pac Mail says the group doesn’t have a PO Box there. If that’s true, the group is committing mail fraud and identity theft.

4.      The amount of misinformation, nonsense and downright lies coming from what can only be described as a backroom establishment operated organization is disheartening to say the least. These are the people who will be shouting unity on August 14^th, the day after the primary election.

5.      We believe a Waukesha woman with ties to the republican establishment is the individual listed as the treasurer of SWF. It is clear that a lawyer who has recently represented Robin Vos in an election integrity case is listed as an “additional contact” for the group. The firm that the lawyer works for does a lot of work for the Republican Party of Wisconsin.

6.      Clearly the mission of the Stronger Wisconsin Fund is making sure that establishment candidates get elected and conservatives don’t. When I say conservatives, I mean people who want to do what is right for the families and citizens of Wisconsin and not the swamp. 

7.      Some of the hit pieces they have sent out are petty things like going on Facebook and taking a post from 2016 about Trump and then calling those candidates Never-Trumpers. Even JD Vance said things in 2016 before we had a chance to see what Trump was all about. But in some cases, like Tim Ramthun and Janel Brandtjen, they have outright lied about their voting record, and we can prove it.

8.      They are desperate. They can’t win on a vetting of the issues or their voting records. The have destroyed wedding barns, voted for unlimited abortion, and bloated the state budget to 100 billion! They need to win to keep the money train running. With a 100-billion-dollar budget there’s enough money to keep all the lobbyists happy. Another 11% increase in spending again this time around is another $11 billion! Who stands to get a nice slice of that pie? The swamp does!!

9.      There’s a lot of democrats running in November. The party will need us to “unify.” After this nonsense we’ll see if that is possible.

10.  Lastly, we may not be able to fully expose Strong Wi Fund before August 13. But Robin Vos is up for election in November, and we have a great candidate running as an independent down there in Kelly Clark. The Speaker will need to answer for this divisive and desperate move, and I know I’m more motivated than ever to work hard for Kelly this fall. And I’m not alone. No, no, no. Not alone by ANY MEANS!!!
