To be scrupulously fair, Ken Paxton merely *OFFERED* a one-day sentence as a plea deal.

The offender, Adam Hoffman, who acknowledged his guilt.

He DID end up serving 60 days, but only because a judge ordered it.

Paxton WANTED him to serve a single day.

Critics are pointing to two other serious felony cases that the attorney general’s prosecutors took to trial that ended in mistrials and, eventually, plea deals.

Well --- not EVERYONE thought it would be an important announcement ---
bsky.app/profile/drgd...
Probably an announcement telling everyone that if they vote GOP, he will personally send them $5,000 in Trumpcoin.

Not likely, but sadly, not impossible!

TerraGrow’s space station was meant to feed Earth, but its accelerated crops unleashed a creeping nightmare. Can you survive the biodomes? 🌱🐜

I don't think it gets us a Fetterman or a Sinema. I think it gets us a Collins.

Normie voters in Maine haven't been paying attention. After Labor Day, Collins will make sure all the voters know about Platner's warts. And probably pick up a sixth term as a result.

Yes, some progressives have this attitude. As do some centrists!

I am not among them. I don't live in MI or ME, but if I did, I would have supported Stevens/Platner if they had ended up as the nominees.

I saw a thread yesterday about "vote blue no matter who", so I thought I would write a few words about it.

This is objectively a correct philosophy, as I will lay out below.

Please hold your applause/invective until the end.

I strongly urge my fellow Minnesotans to call Amy Klobuchar, Tina Smith, and Tim Walz to tell them you oppose this facility (and all private prisons) in Minnesota.

I 100% guarantee Cornyn and Tillis will fold before the election, and Blanche will be confirmed by a Senate that's a rubber stamp for fascism.

(And as always, note that only RETIRING GOP Senators can manage to show even the tiniest independence from Trump)

I don't actually think impeachment is a waste of time.

A thread, FWIW:
bsky.app/profile/drgd...
Earlier today, I responded to multiple posts about the Trump/Hegseth testosterone fest at the Pentagon. I asked folks to call their elected representatives demanding impeachment for Trump and Hegseth.

Pleasantly, I only got two responses like this one.

So, let's talk about impeachment.

Exactly. Without the votes, what's the point? There's enough pointless theater going on right now.

Gee, DOJ lawyers lying in open court.

Again.

When do we start seeing perjury charges and disbarments?

My last observation is that there was a (thankfully) small --- but vocal --- MAGA contingent, who occasionally spoke out to let us know where they disagreed with Ellison and Morrison.

Lucky for them they weren't speaking out in an MTG town hall.

Protesters were stun-gunned and arrested at Marjorie Taylor Greene's town hall
By the end of Greene's Tuesday town hall in Acworth, Ga., three people were arrested and two were hit with stun guns. Greene is one of many lawmakers confronted by angry constituents in recent weeks.

As you can see, this decision was a total surprise to me (yes, this is sarcasm, as is the linked post below):

Jim Crow is alive and well.

On a separate topic,Virginia Democrats have sent and appeal to SCOTUS to allow that state to use gerrymandered maps that favor Democrats.

I'm confident SCOTUS will rule in the Democrats' favor in that state as quickly as they ruled in favor of the GOP here.

'Grownups' don't excuse and cover up for a child rapist.

'Grownups' don't let a wannabe dictator take over the power of the purse, the power to declare war, and the ability to levy tariffs.

'Grownups' pass a fucking bill once in a while.

'Grownups' take seriously their oath to the Constitution.

Your policy instincts are great, as always, Senator Warren.

Your POLITICAL instincts, on the other hand ---
bsky.app/profile/drgd...
In which progressive champion @warren.senate.gov lends her name and progressive bona fides to a candidate with a Nazi tattoo, who has blamed rape victims, advocated political violence, and as recently as last week used the R word.

Not a great look, Senator.
This is not something that gives me a remotely positive opinion of Elizabeth Warren or her efforts to influence Senate leadership.

I called my representatives and told them that when historians look back on this time, they will also look at what the opposition party did in response to Trump's madness, which is why it's important to introduce impeachment articles NOW and talk about them nonstop until tonight's deadline.

You may sneer at the Raiders for giving a truckload of money to Kirk Cousins, and then drafting a QB in the first round, but it worked for Atlanta!

No, wait ---

Okay, I admit I didn't get this one quite right.

But I'm calling it a win, anyway.

Did he approach you with tears in his eyes?

IDK what you're talking about!

I have it on good authority that this 6-3 ruling '100% supported' Trump's tariffs.
