In an interview Wednesday, Knodl said he had been talking about potentially impeaching Protasiewicz as a county judge, not as a justice.
He said he saw no reason to do that now that she will be leaving the Milwaukee court for the high court.

Some news: Today is my last day @journalsentinel. I truly appreciated the opportunity, the friendships and the people I will continue to admire. I even got Kringle (go Racine!)
I'll be returning to @WPR where I'll be covering statewide K-12 education. So, still some politics ;)

.@GovEvers is calling another special session of the Legislature to "create a pathway" to repeal the state's abortion ban.
He's proposing a constitutional amendment to repeal the ban. GOP lawmakers ignored an earlier call from Evers for a special session to repeal the ban.
Here's the joint resolution Evers is calling for that would allow for ballot initiatives in Wisconsin.

"Governor Evers would rather push his agenda to have abortion available until birth than talk about his failure to address rising crime and runaway inflation caused by his liberal DC allies."
