President Trump said Wisconsin is lucky to have a “strong and great” leader like state Rep. Janel Brandtjen (R). The 45th president released a statement on Thursday after the State Elections Committee, led by Brandtjen, issued two subpoenas to launch election audits in the biggest counties in the state.

Trump said Wisconsin shows many signs of cheating in the 2020 election and people are demanding answers now. Brandtjen Spoke to One America News about the subpoenas and said the people of Wisconsin deserve to know the truth.

Trump went on to say we must demand elected officials follow the law and hold them accountable. He also called on Republicans in the state to support Brandtjen’s efforts.
