Tommy Tuberville thought a one-game suspension was enough when one of his players raped a little girl.

If any of our conservative friends who still believe in the rule of law want to hold their party accountable, “the time is always ripe to do what is right.”
Otherwise spare us the sanctimony when he turns on you.
Sentencing reform is needed on a system-wide basis. Like cases should be treated alike & all cases treated fairly. When the AG steps in to fix a sentence in just 1 case of the 1000s DOJ has in progress & it just happens to be for a buddy of Trump’s, that’s corruption.

The Senate is debating two major voting rights bills today. These bills would make voting easier for ALL Americans and would stop many of the attacks on voting rights we've seen in state legislatures across the country.
And not a single Republican plans to vote for them.
Altho Manchin & Sinema appear to remain opposed to changing the filibuster, don’t divert your attention from the fact that not a single GOP Senator is willing to vote FOR voting rights. Democrats remain united on the importance of protecting our elections.
