Sanders signed Senate Bill 10, which exempts records that “reflect the planning or provision of security services” provided to the governor and other cabinet members.

The bill is retroactive to June 1, 2022, which is before Sanders was elected.

    Have my upvote. This post is getting hammered for the supreme sin of introducing nuance to a thread where everyone just wants to be righteously indignant. Most or us have parents who qualify as conservative, but not as evil. It’s like that.

      Yeah, and I think it’s unfortunate. I feel I’ve been constructive and thorough, and my goal was simply to provide a different point of view to hopefully convince others to consider other perspectives and have a good discussion about it.

      If there’s something I did that isn’t appropriate, I’d love to know about it.

        It’s not you. I don’t want to say, “both sides”, because one side is clearly worse than the other, but these people are becoming what they despise. If you look at the worst kinda quasi-religious hive-mind discourse they used to have on /r/TheDonald, and shift it left, it would look like this.

        I’m kinda disappointed.

          Exactly.

          But my point here is that the GOP being “worse” (depending on policy, of course) doesn’t make the Democratic Party “good,” it just makes them “better” (again, depending on the policy).

          And that’s why I’m not registered with either major party, I vote differently based on the election. If I think we need to shift left or I have a really good option for a Dem, I’ll vote Democrat. If I think we need a shift right and I have a really good option for a Rep, I’ll vote Republican. Recently, I’ve been voting more Dem than Rep because I want to send a message that the current signaling just isn’t acceptable. But I’ll go back as soon as the MAGA nonsense goes away and we start getting good GOP candidates again.
