A noteworthy takeaway from tonight's Texas result is that the Republicans spent a metric truckload of money on this race. They spent millions more than the Democrats. The loss itself aside, this is a gigantic, flashing warning sign for the GOP's finances.

Interesting take. Not sure about the 2011 and NZ part (this was from Songs of a Distant Earth, written in the 50’s) but can’t argue with the 2nd paragraph

And THIS is why you get involved in local politics. No decent judge would have signed off on this.
1/ NEW: @propublica.org has obtained a search warrant that the FBI is executing for records related to the contested 2020 election in Fulton County, Ga., which has not yet been widely shared. It’s an extraordinary document.

The magistrate who signed off raiding Georgia voter records looks like you’d expect.
The requirements to be a magistrate are what you’d expect. A GED!?
Appointed BY AN ELECTED JUDGE. Local political involvement is important. This woman has no business as a judge, let alone a public toilet

Don’t for one minute buy any of this “corporations are speaking up” bullshit. They worry about their stock options and their paycheck. They feel zero responsibility to anything else. If they could make money skinning live kittens, they would do that.
