is that somewhere along the line it keeps two normal, sane people out of trouble.

(183,219 posts)It was 2014, and Erin Morrow Hawley was fighting against the egg-laying hens of Missouri. Specifically, a new requirement that chicken cages have enough space for the hens to stand up, turn around and stretch out.
A law professor from five generations of ranchers and the wife of Senator Josh Hawley, Ms. Hawley joined a challenge to California, which required more spacious enclosures for hens laying eggs to be sold there. The state where she taught, Missouri, sold a third of its eggs to California, and Ms. Hawley believed that a blue state had no right to impose its values and rules on Missouris farmers.
She joined in a lawsuit against Californias attorney general at the time, Kamala Harris. A judge found that the challengers could show no direct injury and dismissed the case. Ms. Hawley continued teaching, and Ms. Harris became Joe Bidens vice president.

(15,579 posts)WTF are these RW zealots thinking? Do they really want a whole bunch of eggs and babies and nobody to take care of them as they grow?
Perhaps they are part of a demonic RW cult that likes to eat young things. They probably prefer veal also.

and was polite throughout.
Meanwhile, my thoughts were anything but polite towards Ms Hawley. As in, I hope it happens to you. Smug, entitled, POS.
