Madison Provides Porta Potties, Closes Public Streets For Illegal Encampment

Instead of ending the illegal encampment, the City of Madison is providing porta-potties and shutting down public streets to accommodate it.

This is Wisconsin’s capital city. Our leaders should be enforcing the law and restoring order, not allowing lawlessness to disrupt… https://t.co/9OqzA7TWHd

This is crazy.

This illegal encampment should be removed immediately, not bolstered with the help of the city of Madison.

Think of what Francesca Hong would permit as governor of Wisconsin.

We cannot go down that road.

Tom Tiffany Responds to Madison Police-Involved Shooting

Any loss of life is tragic, and my prayers are with everyone involved.

When I served in the state Legislature, we established the nation’s first statewide law requiring transparent, independent investigations of police-involved deaths.

We should allow that process to establish… https://t.co/Dq7jCdfq7g

Tom Tiffany responds appropriately to yesterday's police-involved shooting in Madison.

Most definitely, Democrat Francesca Hong's response was completely off the rails inappropriate.

Angry Leftist Mob Crash Concert in Madison

These Leftist thugs are not winning over any hearts and minds. In fact, they're hurting their cause.

Same old same old.

From the New York Post:

The man who was killed by police in Madison, Wisconsin, a shocking caught-on-camera shooting — sparking protests — was a violent ex-con with a lengthy record, including for assaulting cops, The Post can reveal.

Corey Durrell Ruiz, 38, was identified by local officials and his family in social media posts.

...Ruiz had recently been released from prison, and had knifed a cop moments before he was fatally shot, according to authorities.

Prison records show that Ruiz was Hispanic, and not black — though court records listed him as African-American.

Online court records show at least 25 criminal cases dating back to 2007. In 2023, he was convicted of battery to a law enforcement officer and resisting a law enforcement officer. He most recently was convicted in 2025 of retail theft and resisting police.

...He was released from prison in May of this year and was listed as having absconded from supervised release.

In this instance, Gov Tony Evers had the correct response while state Rep. Francesca Hong did not. Years ago, I signed bi-partisan legislation into law that requires an independent review when there is an officer-related shooting. A good leader waits for the facts. Gov. Evers…

What Francesca Hong just did and said with a megaphone in the middle of an angry crowd - stating that we can’t protect the system anymore and playing on racial trauma - after an officer shot a man who cut him with a knife… it’s the worst thing I have ever seen a Wisconsin…

Francesca Hong does not know - because she could not know - whether the police shooting in Madison was "an execution." And she knows that. But she doesn't care. She doesn't care because she's a pandering demagogue. Utterly irresponsible. Completely unserious.

— Rick Esenberg (@RickEsenberg) July 23, 2026

Francesca Hong is a Leftist radical. She would be a horrible governor for Wisconsin. She's so bad she makes Tony Evers look good.
