This quote is deep in an article from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

While much of the state can now open up, the court system overseen by the justices will not for the time being. They have suspended jury trials and in-person court hearings because of the dangers of COVID-19 and they held arguments over the stay-at-home order virtually to make sure they stayed away from others.

Here's the article:

Not surprisingly, the Wisconsin Republicans are hypocrites.
