Like Georgia, Texas may also get its first Democratic state solicitor general
It’s not just Talarico beating Paxton.

It’s Abbott losing.

It’s Dan Patrick losing.

It’s Mayes Middleton losing.

It’s Bo French losing.

It’s every single statewide race in Texas—including four (of the nine) seats on the Texas Supreme Court.

Holy. Shit.

The Solicitor General's Office still cares about its reputation at #SCOTUS, so look how many hedge phrases are included in this filing.

Solicitor-in-trouble and litigious bully Andrew Milne made astonishing claims while appealing his stalking conviction at Snaresbrook Crown Court last month – including that his victim, legal blogger Daniel Cloake, told Milne he’d killed a solicitor to oblige him.

Oh no. Iowa will get a new solicitor general.

The timing (that that was filed today, not Friday) and the mediocrity of the arguments sure seems to suggest that the decision to file this application was *not* made by the Solicitor General.
#BREAKING: The day before Election Day, the Trump administration is asking #SCOTUS for emergency relief in the California dispute over whether there are any non-citizens on the voter rolls:

I'm your solicitor, I'd like to advise you to keep posting

I'm a Solicitor who specialises in Probate matters. Even after all these years I still find it sad if someone has died and leaves behind no family. It feels weird dealing with their personal possessions and I talk to them in their home as if they are there.

Count the number of weasel words packed into a single sentence to in the Trump DOJ's emergency request for SCOTUS to bless attempted election interference in California.

Trump's former personal attorney John Sauer, who's now the solicitor general of the United States, wrote this brief.

Solicitor General "Big Steve" Vladek has a nice ring to it, though we'll miss you here in DC.

The Iowa AG race looks like it is going to go Blue, which means a certain tweeting Solicitor General will have even more time to tweet.

Gosh.

Laughing so, so hard. Like, SO hard.

A Solicitor General filing used to be a thing of such gravitas, and treated with such respect, that it would be unthinkable and almost disrespectful to deny it without seeing what the other side had to say for itself.

A lot of things have changed.
#BREAKING: With no public dissents (and without even calling for a response), #SCOTUS *denies* the Trump administration’s emergency application in the California voter roll case.

Our ballots are in a locked compartment inside the optical scanner, which we're not allowed to unlock until after the polls close. As a poll worker it's easy: "I'm sorry, I'm not allowed to unlock that compartment. You'll have to talk to the City Solicitor, the state AG, or the Board of Elections."

I will continue to try and hold the line on this account of being consistently sex-positive while remembering the immortal line from a solicitor caught in flagrante in the file store:

“No one wants to think of their solicitor bent over anything other than their work…”

My solicitor ripped him a new one in court a couple of years back for being an obnoxious prick who was on his phone and disrespecting the court...now I wonder exactly what he was looking at?
