A former child sitcom star turned OnlyFans model is now running day-to-day operations for a gubernatorial campaign in Wisconsin. That's not a gotcha, that's just the sentence as written. Francesca Hong, who's positioned herself as the standard-bearer of the party's furthest left flank in the state, picked Renee Faust to be her deputy campaign manager. Whatever you think of how people choose to make a living, it's a strange staffing decision for someone asking voters to trust her with the machinery of state government.
Democrats spent years insisting personnel choices reveal character, that who you hire says something about your judgment and your values. Fine. Let's apply that standard evenly. Hong's campaign wants to talk about workers' rights and economic populism, but the actual hire tells you where the party's energy really lives right now: online, performative, and increasingly indifferent to whether any of it plays in the counties that actually decide Wisconsin elections.
This isn't really about Faust personally. People reinvent themselves all the time, and nobody's disputing her right to do it. It's about a campaign that seems to think this kind of hire signals something edgy or authentic to a base that already agrees with them, without asking what it looks like to the swing voters in Green Bay or Eau Claire who are going to decide whether Wisconsin stays purple. Campaigns reveal priorities through who gets the keys to the operation. This one just told you what its priorities are.
