Every time I see Missouri mentioned in a national news/politics forum, even before I've read the whole post title, I get a sense of dread. Because it's never anything good.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Wouldn’t it be lovely if the abortion amendment motivates enough people to vote these shitheads out of our government?
Would they just ignore it? Didn't they do that with your marijuana amendment? Or something else. I just remember it being relatively recent.
It was the gerrymandering one they ignored. The cannabis one didn’t attack their power base and it is not something they directly controlled. I think the abortion one is more like the cannabis one.
Fuck those fascists.
But then I remember that in 2018 when Missouri voted down the proposition for right to work while voting the guys who passed right to work back in and elected a few new guys too who immediately went after the election trying to pass right to work again.
I gave up on Missouri then.
This isn’t directed at you, but why the hell do we use the rights propaganda words to describe things. “Right to work” is such a bullshit framing.
"we will be subpoenaing information on Google's algorithms and other systems to determine whether they are censoring conservative speech."
Good luck with your crash course in data science and machine learning, Missouri AG. In the past this has always turned out to be some kind of weighting towards probably-true content that disproportionately targets conservatives because they're the ones spreading lies.
The reason they tried to go after Gmail for marking GOP donation emails as spam turned out to be because GOP politicians used more spam tactics and thus resembled spam. Gmail turned off spam filtering for political emails as a result. And yet these weird freaks still have a persecution complex about everything and everyone treating them unfairly.
GOOGL IS SENSURING TRUMP
I DEMAND EQUAL TREATMENT OF MY SHITTY ASS VIEWPOINTS
Fuck you, and fuck the GOP. Never does it say anywhere we have to like you.
…wrote on X… the irony is lost on them.
Oh look another little fat white guy defending Trump. Weird.
What an idiot. Does not even know the basic laws of the country he is working for. The US really needs a mandatory intelligence test for politicians, and exclude anyone below e.g. 80, even if that would kill the GOPs presence in politics.
I'm starting to think AG is an abbreviation of Asshole General.

Why does everyone hate my shitty propaganda bot? Don't people like being told what to think during election season?
That can't be it. Wait, I got it!
