Just because some people are capable of climbing over a barrier does not mean the barrier is not a problem.

Justice Dept. in DC taking over Texas AG corruption probe
By JAKE BLEIBERG and ERIC TUCKER
February 16, 2023
DALLAS (AP) — Justice Department officials in Washington have taken over the corruption investigation into Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, removing the case from the hands of the federal prosecutors in Texas who’d long been leading the probe.
The move was disclosed in a statement by state prosecutors handling their own case against Paxton. It’s the latest development in the federal investigation into the attorney general, who came under FBI scrutiny in 2020 after his own top deputies accused him of bribery and abusing his office to help one of his campaign contributors, who also employed a woman with whom Paxton acknowledged having had an extramarital affair.

@GottaLaff @AlliFlowers I almost kept my account for this situation. But I decided there were others with a much wider audience that would keep theirs and my deactivated account would speak louder. But only because folks like you help me stay informed. It’s a service I greatly appreciate.

@bitterwhiteguy @StillIRise1963 Paxton should also be charged for Conspiracy to Commit Election Fraud over J6.

Careful before blocking newsie(dot)social! They’re also hosting Doctors without borders.
It is absolutely essential that Doctors without borders stay available to the widest audience possible. They’re new both here and on bluesky and re-gaining their audience is already hard enough to not fediblock them on top of that.
Whatever you decide to do, please be sure to not harm their work.

We were never supposed to have a state religion. So why are we allowing SCOTUS to be filled by Federalist Society?

“Once again, the conservative justices reveal themselves to be textualists of convenience.”
“Adjacent” means “next to,” not “adjoining” . . . until the Alito Five want to cut back EPA’s power under the Clean Water Act.

The rise of antisemitic attacks should alarm all of us. Antisemitism and bigotry - like all forms of hate - have no place in our world, and it’s on each of us to combat this growing threat. @potus is right to take on this issue, and he deserves our support. https://t.co/HY5xrpnS2g

This supposed party of freedom is more than happy to intervene in private medical decisions that belong to individuals, parents, and medical professionals- for power.
They won’t stop with attacks on women, parents, educators, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community, and more.
Yes, I know there’s gerrymandering and voter suppression. But we have to vote the GOP out. Vote and vote for Democrats.
