We are back this afternoon as the legislature reconvenes!

We will bring you the important updates as the day progresses but right now here's a live look 👇👇👇

Anyone inside in there? Lights are off 💭 lol
Things starting to pick up here this afternoon:
-Senator @NebraskaMegan Hunt threatens Republican colleagues a few times
- Speaker Jon Arch says Hunt was late coming back from lunch, that's why she was skipped over

Sen. Hunt is consistently late in the mornings & for committees
Senator Hunt rudely attempts to speak while the Speaker has his time. Speaker Arch proceeds to say, "Please Senator."

Arch continues to say the session is not over (in response to Hunt earlier this morning)

This newscast was on August 8, 2019.

But a little more than a year earlier when DeSantis was trying to win the Republican nomination it was a totally different story. 1/
Keep in mind DeSantis was trailing or tied generally before July 2018 in the Republican primary. Then he pushed ahead in July and never trailed. 2/
And what precipitated his move into the lead?

He made a very specific and public claim in April 2018 that he would have vetoed the red flag laws signed by Scott. Strongly implying he was opposed to them. 3/

.@MeredithDeliso at @ABCNews writes about Alabama's new #ConstitutionalCarry law.
She erroneously cites 1 study claiming these laws are dangerous that isn't even about this type of law.

.@MeredithDeliso's piece is on police "opposing" it.
She ignores the law's author was an officer for 30yrs & his whole family are police. There is significant opposition by police, but it is far from universal &, more importantly, police opposition doesn’t continue or reduces.
— If you look at the history of right-to-carry laws, police similarly opposed those laws when they were first passed, but u don’t mention the irony that they now say how great those laws are & they don’t want to change them. Why not mention that change over time in the article?
