ah, sorry. i didn't notice that you were drawing a distinction between the letter and other anti-corporate actions/speech by elected republicans.


although, i have to say, i don't really share the view that the letter is a notable escalation beyond other speech and threats of action by republican electeds or that there is a clear connection between donations to republican members of congress and the actions of republican attorneys general, many not even from the same states.

Are most attorney generals just terrible lawyers who know nothing about how the legal system works, or are they actually really good lawyers who get burnt out and decide to go scream about culture war bullshit instead?
They’re politicians in case that helps your understanding

I don't think it's an escalation either, it's just a simple, easy cheap political trick only to score points from simple people. Three letter didn't even contain anything actionable, it was pure political nonsense.

Speaking of which

Are most attorney generals just terrible lawyers who know nothing about how the legal system works, or are they actually really good lawyers who get burnt out and decide to go scream about culture war bullshit instead?

They're politicians, most of them were formally prosecutors with strong political bend, either way. Their acumen as a practicing attorney is secondary given they rarely preside over any cases and they really don't have to if they never want or need to.

Could go here or perhaps the MEGA MAGA thread but a Senator named "Markwayne" just challenged the head of the Teamsters to a fight. lmao

I was going to joke that Roger Marshall should hang around this guy to try to appear smarter and then I remembered Roger Marshall tried to run a guy over so I think they should stay the hell away from one another because they’ll either kill each other or raise some real hell.

holy crap. the citizens of Oklahoma "for real life" sent this clown to DC as their Senator. I was thinking he was a representative to the state house of representatives or something. when I first saw the clip.
