.@TVietor08: I just want to make sure that listeners know the story of Ken Paxton and a man named Adam Hoffman. Adam Hoffman was an attorney in Waco, Texas. He was arrested in 2022 after being accused of repeatedly sexually abusing a young boy.
It's shameful, but remember, they tried to gag Pentagon reporters and that didn't stop them from doing their job. Support a free & independent press. It's even more important when our president doesn't.

UCLA left this particular Bluesky post out of their allegations. Gee, I wonder why? Could it be because I clearly state I’m “not celebrating violence or murder”…?
Johnathan Perkins, Esq.@johnathanperk.bsky.social · 8mo agoCharlie Kirk is on record saying Black Women “do not have the brain power to be take seriously.” Of course, I don’t endorse or celebrate gun violence or murder—I’m also not sad this dude is gone. Sorry not sorry.
This is such disrespect. He can't even be bothered with getting a solid night's sleep or at least taking a stimulant to stay awake. This is the 25th anniversary of 9-11. #TrumpIsAFailure #TrumpIsUnfit
