The Democrats have been screaming that Jim Crow is back! Just to test it out, I went outside to see if I now have less rights as a black man. I started humming a negro spiritual and set out on my way.
Got on a bus. Sat in front. No one said anything to me. Took it one stop and then did the walk of shame back to my truck.
Went to a restaurant. Sat at the counter. The nice man behind it asked me if I wanted a menu. I informed him this was just a test and he passed. The look of confusion on his face let me know the Democrats hadn’t informed him I can’t sit at restaurant counters.
Looked for separate bathrooms and water fountains. Couldn’t find a single one. Got immediate side eye from an older black woman when I asked her if she’d noticed any separate water fountains or bathrooms. Her answer wasn’t Christian.
Tried looking for a freedom march so I could join it and see if I’d get hosed or dogs turned on me. No marches. I did see someone with a Pomeranian dog, though, but it didn’t attack me.
So… based on my evidence, Jim Crow is still dead. The Democrats lied.

This time in Alabama, there are some legitimate races. Yeah, they're all on the Republican side, and all their ads tout (1) standing with Trump, (2) loving to hunt and shoot guns (3) going to church, and (4) fighting for Alabama -- whatever that means. And a lot of them say they'll fight against left-wing policies with pictures of AOC, Ilhan Omar and Bernie Sanders flashing up. Even for offices that have no influence on such things.
Yes, it means choosing from among flawed candidates -- IOW, voting against someone, rather than for someone.
I haven't followed polls much, but in the race for Tuberville's Senate seat, Barry Moore seems to be spending the most on TV ads and has Trump's endorsement. What little I have seen says he has a small lead. As far as I'm aware, he's not related to Roy Moore. But he seems to be about as much of a moron as Roy, though there are no whispers of chasing underage dating partners.
So I'll probably vote for Jared Hudson. He has no political experience, which might be a good thing. And he's a former Navy SEAL, so I don't think anything will intimidate him. Yeah, he leans a bit heavily on religion, but his military bona fides are unquestioned. Al.com did an article on him, saying that he's "surging." He's also started to attract attack ads from Moore's camp, which tells me he's got their attention.
There are 3 major candidates, so there's a good chance there'll be a runoff. Right now, it looks like that would be between Moore and Hudson. But there's a week to go, so who knows?

Wait Trump isn't endorsing tubby? Did tubby anger him in someway and I missed it?
I find it hilarious that a third party PAC is running numerous ads stating that Mo Brooks has "gone woke."
Tubby is running for governor. There is no real opposition in the primary for him and I haven’t even seen an ad for him even though he has raised a bunch of money. He will face Doug Jones in November and will likely trounce him again.
Trump campaigned on draining the swamp but has endorsed swamp critter Barry Moore over the outsider.
Yep... Near 100% odds we will have a Floridian for fours years as Gubna. A man who couldn't name the three branches of the Fed at one point.
Jones is a very intelligent gentlemen, moderate, and would be a great governor. So of course he has no chance.
His primary residence is in Florida. He has barely a strawman residency in Alabama.
It doesn't sound like he meets the actual legal requirement to run for governor from what I've read... But that won't stop him!
Yikes, sounds like the Alabama GOP is completely crooked:
If it turns out Tommy Tuberville is really a Florida man, blame the Alabama GOP
The Alabama GOP has a history of kicking people off the ballot, just not the right ones.
www.al.com
According to that article, John Wahl used a fake ID to vote, and nothing was done to him. He's running for Lt. Governor. The Alabama GOP will never disqualify Dumberville because he is MAGA through and through. The "rule of law" party doesn't care about the rules.
So, we could very possibly end up with a FL resident as governor and a Lt. Governor who illegally voted once.
Only the best people.

Was Wahl the guy from near Athens that didn't fell like he should have to pay for a driver's license?
He voted with a fake ID showing his name as "John Wahl," with help from John Zeigler. The matter was referred to Steve Marshall for prosecution, but I'm sure you can guess what happened then. He's registered to vote under his real name in Tennessee - Nehemiah Ezekiel Wahl, although there's no record of his voting there. He's registered in Alabama as "John"...
I remember reading about it a while back... And yet we have so much worry about voting security...
