威斯康星州奥科诺莫沃克——预计将在周二威斯康星州共和党州长初选中胜出的众议员汤姆·蒂凡尼警告选民，若他在大选中对阵社会主义州众议员弗朗西斯卡·洪，这场对决将决定社会主义能否在这个中西部摇摆州站稳脚跟。
蒂凡尼与前弗吉尼亚州州长格伦·扬金一同接受福克斯新闻数字媒体采访，他在初选前夕表示，随着极左翼候选人在今年春夏多场备受关注的初选中击败更多温和派民主党人，此次选举将决定威斯康星能否成为抵御社会主义蔓延的“防火墙”。
“美国腹地能否成为阻止这场社会主义浪潮——尤其是来自东海岸的社会主义浪潮——的防火墙？”蒂凡尼说道，“我认为威斯康星可以。我们将成为阻止社会主义的阵地。”

洪在民主党州长提名对决中是民调领先者。今年夏天，两名主要竞争者退出竞选，另有一名候选人重新参选，让这场初选风波不断。
作为美国民主社会主义者组织（DSA）成员，这位37岁的前厨师、单身母亲得到了多位全国知名进步人士的支持，包括明尼苏达州众议员伊尔汗·奥马尔和2028年民主党总统竞选潜在候选人、加利福尼亚州众议员罗·康纳。
洪的竞选纲领包括保障带薪休假、将该州最低工资从每小时7.25美元上调至20美元，以及在威斯康星州暂停建设人工智能数据中心一年。她的“向富人征税”计划提议，对年收入超过43.1万美元的夫妻和年收入超过32.3万美元的个人征收1%的州所得税上调。
洪曾因多年前的社交媒体帖子引发争议，这些帖子呼吁削减警察经费并废除警察部门。但她表示，自己不再支持削减警察预算或废除警察部门。

“我不会削减警察经费，不会废除警察。我对公共安全是认真的，”洪周六在回答选民提问时强调。
“我认为弗朗西斯卡·洪所主张的与美国背道而驰，”扬金说道，“她想要削减警察经费、关闭监狱，想要废除军队，想要废除总统职位。这些都是民主社会主义者组织的主张，而她正是该组织的正式成员。”
“[蒂凡尼]将在选票上对阵一个一心要解构美国的人，”扬金说道，“这场选举最终的核心就是——常识对抗疯狂。”
扬金和蒂凡尼在密尔沃基西郊一处新建住宅开发项目举行竞选活动后接受了福克斯新闻采访，蒂凡尼在活动中公布了他的“解锁威斯康星州住房所有权”议程。
“我了解我的朋友和邻居，包括一些民主党人，他们并不疯狂，”蒂凡尼说道，“他们不相信这些疯狂的政策：废除监狱、废除警察、征收最高税率。我的意思是，他们不会接受这些。”

洪过往的社交媒体帖子引发了更多审视，包括2021年一条称警察“旨在维护白人至上”的帖子，以及呼吁废除美国参议院、批评感恩节和情人节的内容。
洪在 backlash 中收回了她关于感恩节的言论，如今称感恩节是她“最爱的节日”。
针对这些重新浮出水面的推文，洪周六对记者表示，自己已经“成长”并“吸取了教训”。
但蒂凡尼告诉福克斯新闻：“[他们]会想尽办法收回言论，但人们已经看穿了这一点。这些翻来覆去的表态，人们早就知道了，在接下来的几个月竞选活动中，他们会了解更多。当你不够真诚时，人们一眼就能看穿这种把戏。”
当福克斯新闻数字媒体请洪回应蒂凡尼的批评时，洪将自己过往的帖子描述为一些“糟糕的观点”。
“你在推特上有时会有一些过激言论、糟糕观点，”洪在威斯康星州森普雷里的一场竞选活动后对记者说道，“我把我的情绪发泄到了网上。”

包括蒂凡尼和扬金在内的共和党人试图将洪的进步主义履历描绘成这个摇摆州的负担。
“这是美国腹地站出来捍卫美国的时刻，”扬金在谈及这场选举时说道。
蒂凡尼是保守派众议院自由核心小组的强硬派成员，曾是奶农，获前总统唐纳德·特朗普背书。他强调：“有些人可能不同意我支持的部分政策，但他们知道我是真诚的。他们知道我是真实可信的。”

洪认为，民主党选民对党内建制派感到厌倦，声称她的竞选主张能吸引各类民主党人和共和党人——这些人不认同特朗普及其支持的候选人。
蒂凡尼和洪周二将作为各自初选的领先者参选：蒂凡尼的对手是医疗服务技术员安德鲁·曼斯克，洪则面临另外四名民主党候选人的挑战——获即将退休的民主党州长托尼·埃弗斯背书的密尔沃基县行政长官大卫·克劳利、前威斯康星州行政部秘书乔尔·布伦南，以及民主党州参议员凯尔达·罗伊斯。

OCONOMOWOC, Wis. – Rep. Tom Tiffany, who is expected to win Tuesday’s Republican gubernatorial primary in Wisconsin, is warning voters that a likely general-election match up with socialist state Rep. Francesca Hong could determine whether socialism gains a foothold in the Midwestern battleground state.
Tiffany, speaking to Fox News Digital alongside former Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, said on the eve of the primary that the election could determine whether Wisconsin becomes a “firewall” against the spread of socialism as far-left candidates continue to topple more moderate Democrats in high-profile primary elections this spring and summer.
“Is the heartland going to be the firewall that stops this movement of socialism coming from, especially the East Coast?” Tiffany said. “And I think Wisconsin will be. We’ll be the place that stops socialism.”

Hong is the polling frontrunner in a Democratic gubernatorial nomination showdown that’s been rocked this summer after two major contenders dropped out, and another candidate re-entered the race.
A member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the 37-year-old former chef and single mother is backed by top nationally known progressives, including Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Ro Khanna of California, a potential 2028 Democratic presidential contender
Hong is running on a platform that includes guaranteed paid leave, boosting the state’s minimum wage from $7.25 to $20 per hour, and a one-year moratorium in Wisconsin on building AI data centers. Her “TAX THE RICH” plan proposes raising state income taxes by 1% for couples making over $431,000 and individuals making over $323,000.
Hong has faced scrutiny over years-old social media posts calling for defunding and abolishing the police. But she says she no longer supports cutting police budgets or abolishing police departments.

“I’m not defunding the police, not abolishing police. I am serious about public safety,” Hong emphasized on Saturday as she took questions from voters.
“I think what Francesca Hong stands for is the antithesis of America,” Youngkin said. “She wants to defund police, close prisons. She wants to get rid of the military. She wants to get rid of the presidency. I mean, these are all the things that the DSA stands for and she is a card-carrying member.”
“[Tiffany] is what’s gonna be on the ballot against someone who literally wants to deconstruct America,” Youngkin said.
“This is what this election eventually is gonna be about — common sense against crazy.”
Youngkin and Tiffany spoke with Fox News after holding a campaign event at a new home development in this outer western suburb of Milwaukee, where Tiffany unveiled his “Unlocking Homeownership in Wisconsin” agenda.
“I just know my friends and neighbors, including some who are Democrats, they are not crazy,” Tiffany said. “They do not believe in some of these crazy policies, abolish prisons, abolish police, highest tax rates that you could possibly have. I mean they do not accept that.”

Past social media posts from Hong have drawn scrutiny, including a 2021 post stating that police “exist to uphold white supremacy” and posts calling to abolish the U.S. Senate and criticizing Thanksgiving and Valentine’s Day.
Hong walked back her Thanksgiving comments, amid backlash, and now says that Thanksgiving is her “favorite holiday.”
On her resurfaced tweets, Hong told reporters on Saturday that she had “evolved” and “learned.”
But Tiffany told Fox News ,”[They are] going to do everything they can to walk them back, but people see through this. Those flip-flops, people know about that already and they’re going to know about it as we go through the final, you know, couple months of the campaign. They see through that type of stuff when you are not genuine.”
When asked by Fox News Digital to respond to Tiffany’s criticism by Fox News Digital, Hong characterized her past posts as some “bad takes.”
“You have some hot takes, sometimes bad takes on Twitter,” Hong said about the posts, as she spoke with reporters following a campaign stop in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. “And I let my feelings out into the world.”

Republicans, like Tiffany and Youngkin, have sought to portray Hong’s progressive record as a liability for the battleground state.
“This is a moment for the heartland of America to stand up for America,” Youngkin said of the race.
Tiffany, a hard-right member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus and a former dairy farmer who is endorsed by President Donald Trump, emphasized, “Some people may not agree with a few of the policies that I’m for, but they know I’m genuine. They know I’m authentic.”

Hong has argued that Democratic voters are fed up with the party establishment, claiming her candidacy appeals to a variety of both Democrats and Republicans, who disagree with Trump and his aligned candidates.
Tiffany and Hong enter Tuesday as the frontrunners in their respective primaries, with Tiffany running against medical service technician Andrew Manske, and Hong facing off against three other Democratic candidates — Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley, who is backed by retiring Democratic Gov. Tony Evers, former Wisconsin Department of Administration secretary Joel Brennan, and democratic state Sen. Kelda Roys.
