Wisconsin Republicans float the impeachment of a new liberal state Supreme Court justice because the court could toss GOP-friendly legislative maps

• Wisconsin Republicans are floating the potential impeachment of state Supreme Court judge Janet Protasiewicz.
• During her campaign for the seat, Protasiewicz described the GOP-drawn maps as "rigged."
• Republicans are arguing that Protasiewicz must recuse herself from redistricting cases over her comments.

Even before Janet Protasiewicz was elected to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, conservatives were disdainful of her criticism of their legislative maps, which they had meticulously crafted to allow them to dominate politics in the otherwise closely contested swing state.
