Ron DeSantis is actually beginning to look like a more evil creep than Lester Maddox …
A remarkably despicable achievement.

If the national press wasn’t wired for republicans, that seems like the sort of statement that every candidate on a Republican ticket would (and should) be asked if they agree with.

Just like whenever a Dem (any dem, anywhere) says something complimentary about Fidel Castro and or Cuba

Praps the Lt Gov of NC would do well to visit Hitler’s death camp sites. and those of Mao as well. In China it is still now today going on with an entire ethnic population in camps because of religion and their ethnicity… the Uyghurs. Praps XI could give the LtGov a tour.

" inane holiday ruling by a federal judge in Louisiana that bought hook-line-and-sinker the right-wing conspiracy theories that conservatives are censored on social media."

I don’t think he bought it at all. Serving up alternate reality and then laundering it through the courts to basically “decree” it the new actual reality is deeply embedded in the whole FedSoc/ALEC/State Policy Network project, and we just witnessed it come to what might be it’s apex fruition with SCOTUS deciding that someone can have standing for worrying about something that might happen, but has never happened and could not happen unless and until they themselves first took steps of their own that would allow it to potentially happen, all based on something that never ever happened because it was demonstrably faked and proven to be fake. Feigning outrage and waxing sanctimonious over the “alternate facts” that supposedly comprise the new Decreed Reality is part of the laundering process, makes them seem more real, but deep down he knows they’re not.

Well Ron did hire Dr. Joseph Ladapo.

Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo altered an analysis released by the Florida Department of Health last year to suggest mRNA Covid-19 vaccines pose a significant health risk to men ages 18 to 39, Politico reported Monday.

Ron only hires the guys that tell him what he wants to hear.

Trump Judge?

New Orleans-based US district court judge Jane Triche Milazzo had been asked to recuse herself by Aaron Hebert, who is pressing a 2019 lawsuit asserting that the admitted clerical child abuser Lawrence Hecker had victimized him decades earlier.

Hebert and his legal team cited Milazzo’s disclosure during a 15 June court hearing that she made an unspecified amount of financial contributions to a church run by the archdiocese that employed Hecker and provided him with retirement benefits.

They contended that recusal was appropriate because the standard for such a move is whether “a disinterested, objective observer, armed with all of the surrounding facts, would have reason to doubt the judge’s impartiality”. They also referred to how seven other federal judges in New Orleans had recused themselves from handling litigation related to the Catholic clerical abuse crisis because of various connections to the archdiocese, associated institutions or the law firm representing it in its unresolved 2020 bankruptcy filing.

Zuck’ new Meta thingy might be problematic for Musk. A cage match is in order.

The new social media app, which had been slated for release on Thursday, was made available to download in 100 countries on Wednesday evening. Zuckerberg spent his first few hours on the platform saying he wanted to make Threads a “friendly” place that eventually has more than a billion users—an opportunity, he said, which Musk has blown for Twitter.

I hate the question headline trope, too! So I almost never use it, and especially not when the answer is an obvious NO.

Public defenders are for those who can’t afford an attorney, so nope.

Exceedingly rare. More likely is that someone gets voluntarily appointed for the limited purpose of the arraignment, or he just gets arraigned pro se.

Yep, not a Loose Cannon event today.

I’m waiting for some Texans to toss bottles of water at governor Abbott and Lt. Governor Patrick when they are in public. Or to be less violent just have a march on the Capitol in Austin with people wielding them.
