Matt Gaetz, a controversial figure in American politics, has been selected as Attorney General by former President Donald Trump.

This relationship raises many ethical and constitutional concerns.
Cannon’s potential elevation to AG appears to be a form of reward for her judicial decisions that have repeatedly favored Trump, creating a dangerous precedent where the independence of the judiciary is overshadowed by partisan politics.… Continue reading
As I sit here reflecting on the recent news about the Missouri Supreme Court blocking the release of a man whose conviction was overturned after more than 30 years in prison, I can’t help but feel a deep sense of outrage and despair.
