    There's something wonderful about a Republican being the head of the fedruhl government and asking the states to comply with something. What about states' rights? Whatever happened to this bedrock principle of our country, the one that created martyrs idolized to this day in statue?

    They asked states to comply with a request for publicly available data.

    Would you like to explain how that's a threat to states' rights?

    I don't think it is. I'm not a big states rights guy. I just think it's hilarious that a Republican POTUS has riled up states that love him.

    No one is riled up. It's theater. Glad you enjoyed the show.

    Political theater. Fighting with cable news hosts. Just what he was elected to do.

    That pivot is coming any day now...

    Inky was fishing for reds and specks on Mobile Bay and not keeping up with the thread.

    If it's already publicly available why are they requesting it? Too lazy to file FOIA?
