I could see myself getting arrested if I even witness shitheel behavior by a poll thug inside a voting location. Few things make me as ragey, for some reason.
I'm kind of perplexed at how there are literally zero appointments available in the greater Austin area to renew a minor? I mean, the county office and every post office show not a single one, and won't show past October anyway. And I hadn't realized the Travis County passport office has gone to appointment only.
Has anyone gone to the Global UT one, where you just walk in? They say they only take a few each day and you should get there before they open, so sounds like a barrel of fun.
I'm not sure how clear it was to people at the time as to why she did that. Most just thought it was for shock value. The sexual abuse of kids as any sort of thing was just then beginning to become known. Hard to imagine.
But of course, she was right about it all and had first-hand knowledge of the systemic abuse of the church. She really paid a price for speaking out.
I hate this timeline. I don't have a problem with Biden other than the fact he is way too fucking old and that in itself is a huge liability any way you cut it.

He is disingenuous and dangerous. Hell, he's already dismantled core tenets of our democracy vis a vis gutting the VRA and Citizens United.
So the appeal to the 11th circuit--
TwiceHorn, you said before this will be an abuse of discretion standard. Which concerns me. Is there no argument to be made that it should be reviewed de novo?
That is, because Trump team has submitted no sworn facts as the party that petitioned for relief, the legitimacy of Cannon's stay is more in the way of a pure legal issue, rather than an application of the law to a known set of specific facts? Just a thought
I don't know if Abbott had anything to do with DeSantis's stunt. But anyone seriously believe he told the DC-bound migrants, "hey families, do you guys want to hang out in front of the Vice President's home for hours with nothing to do and no food or facilities so we can all own the libs?" I have my doubts
