Arkansas governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, fresh off her $19,000 lectern scandal, needed a diversion for her constituents this week, so she decided to issue an executive order banning what she calls "woke words" from the state government. It is unclear if any of these words or phrases were actually used by the state, but again, this is only about distracting her voters from her scandals AND the horrible condition that the state is in.
Also, Donald Trump's lawyer Christopher Kise was scolded by the judge in the New York fraud trial this week, and forced to apologize to two female lawyers that he insulted. For one of the lawyers, Kise made a comment suggesting that she wasn't smart enough to understand what he was saying, and the other was on the receiving end of Kise's arrogance when he brushed her off and told her he was only talking to the judge (she was the judge's clerk.) Things aren't going well for Trump and his legal team, as Farron explains.
And finally, the public was definitely surprised by Sidney Powell's decision to take a plea deal and flip on her co-defendants in Georgia, but those close to Donald Trump say that he was "blindsided" by the news. This is a good indication that Trump and his team are scared about what Powell may share with the court. The reports also suggest that Trump's team believed that Powell would be the hardest nut to crack for the prosecution, and the fact that they got her means that they might be able to flip anyone.
