Spencer Faces Dual Legal Battles | Milwaukee News

Tearman Spencer, former Milwaukee City Attorney, is locked in a high-stakes legal battle facing felony and misdemeanor charges in two separate cases — one for allegedly abusing city resources to avoid fees on his property, and another for allegedly conspiring to illegally acquire and flip a Milwaukee property. If convicted on both, he could face over four years in prison and $20,000 in fines. His trial kicked off July 27 with jury selection, followed by opening statements. He’s also facing four additional felonies from a separate case in Waukesha County, and though he was voted out in 2024 and has pleaded not guilty to all charges, the drama is far from over.

Wisconsin Governor’s Race in Chaos | Milwaukee News

Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial race is spiraling into chaos, with a socialist-backed candidate leading among Democrats but trailing against GOP frontrunner Tom Tiffany, sparking panic among party elites. After a once-promising electable contender dropped out, heavyweights like David Axelrod warn the race is a “slow-rolling car headed for a cliff,” fearing a GOP win that could cost a House seat. Former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau questions why the party hasn’t rallied behind Mandela Barnes, while Rep. Mark Pocan pushes back, arguing D.C. consultants misread Wisconsin voters—and that Francesca Hong might actually be the most connected candidate. Complicating matters, David Crowley’s surprise return with Governor Evers’ backing has Barnes on the defensive, with his team accusing Crowley of being a pawn for “special interests.” The race is far from over—and the path to victory is anything but clear.
