7. Alabama U.S. Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) is defending his vote to ban TikTok by noting, “The problem is the Chinese Communist government and their access to all terabytes of information and spying on us citizens.” Supporters of TikTok are blaming “pro-Israel lobbying groups” for a congressional ban on the social media platform, which is […]

Trump/Biden; Britt response; former Rep. Mo Brooks hosts; and more on Alabama Politics This Week ...
7. Alabama Democrats are doing what they do best, being silly hypocrites with no credibility and claiming they are leaving the “racist hellscape” of Twitter after using the app to be anti-Semitic multiple times. 6. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) undermined American foreign policy, his credibility, and our ally Israel with an ill-advised speech […]
Media is suggesting, without evidence, that Alabama and Auburn will field all-white basketball teams
7. Gov. Kay Ivey’s office has released a statement that some Alabama agency websites have been targeted by denial-of-service attacks.

7. U.S. Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) is leaving Congress early to trigger a special election to replace him and hurt current Rep. Lauren Boebert’s (R-Colo.) attempt to replace him. The bigger issue for Congress is that this narrows the Republican majority to 5 and that matters when trying to pass legislation. 6. President Joe Biden […]
7. Alabama’s most embarrassing sports columnist is suggesting that college sports, NCAA events, the SEC itself will all be unable to exist in the state of Alabama if DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) initiatives are banned. This is not a repeat of a similar theory on issues of bathrooms, gender surgery for minors, gay marriage, […]
7. The debate over a bill that could potentially raise the cost of prescription drugs significantly is set to heat up when the Legislature reconvenes this week.

7. The fact that President Joe Biden does not hate Jews enough is one of his biggest liabilities among the Democrats anti-Semite caucus, so pro-Hamas protestors tried to block Biden from his State of the Union.

7. A $500,000 grant from the Federal Communications Commission will be used to implement technology aimed at detecting and preventing illegal cell phone usage among inmates.

7. A somewhat better gambling bill exists but it still may not be good enough to get through the Alabama Legislature. The revised gambling legislation in the Senate includes provisions for the Poarch Band of Creek Indians and Gov. Kay Ivey to negotiate a compact, a statewide lottery, and making some quasi-legal gamblers legit. 6. Former Alabama […]
7. Congrats are in order for former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley who notched her first GOP primary win in Washington, D.C., a Democratic stronghold, even after former President Donald Trump’s team warned lobbyists that they better vote for him. This, of course, means absolutely nothing but the real news this weekend is that Haley has […]
7. A new gambling bill could be voted on in the Alabama State Senate next week, but no one really seems to think the State House backed plans will get a vote.
