David Crowley Thinks Milwaukee Is “Stolen” Land

MADISON, WI – Just how woke is Democrat David Crowley? He’s so woke that he thinks Milwaukee County is “stolen” land.

A new report by The Daily Wire reveals that Crowley apologized for being on land he said was “stolen” from American Indian tribes. He also began his state of the county address with a land acknowledgment while boasting about strides in “equity” the county has made with him as Executive.

Crowley was already facing scrutiny for his support of radical DEI and Green New Deal policies, but his embrace of the cringey “stolen” land line that’s often used by Hollywood celebrities as an empty virtue signal further shows how out of touch he is with Wisconsin families.

  1. Downtown says:

    While one is instructed not to give credence to bullies by acknowledging their actions, could we point out that Tom Tiffany doesn’t admit that the 2020 election wasn’t stolen. So be careful how you use the word “stolen” in the campaign for governor.

  2. CraigR says:

    So acknowledgement of something that happened almost 200 years ago is now important to the current governor’s race? Does the Republican Party have some receipts showing that a fair price was paid for this land? Otherwise, what’s their point?
