Robert and Brandon discuss the appointment of attorney Assma Ali as municipal judge for the small town of Benoit, Mississippi, a story that should have been a non-event but instead led to a viral misinformation campaign and online harassment.
Plus, they play a funny ad out of Texas that shows Ken Paxton stealing a thousand dollar pen.
They wrap up by discussing redistricting, including a DeSoto County lawsuit, good reporting from the Mississippi Independent, and the legislature’s first redistricting hearing in Tupelo.
