In 1998, a legal revolution was quietly born in Texas. It would pull America’s courts rightward. https://www.tucsonsentinel.com/nationworld/report/080423_conservative_court_shift/in-1998-legal-revolution-was-quietly-born-texas-it-would-pull-americas-courts-rightward/
With his election as Texas attorney general, U.S. Sen. John Cornyn planted the seeds of conservatism. Gov. Greg Abbott used his tenure to cultivate them into an aggressive strain of right-wing activism aimed at driving the nation’s courts and laws to the right.

This is excellent.
Unearthing of big chunks of the decades-long deep-rooting by the right into the mantle of, not just shaping the laws across the country, but designing into those laws their own control mechanisms for who they are used against and how.
Republicans never make laws FOR people. They always legislate AGAINST people or good ideas for people.
Not many people wanna see that Republicans plan, Democrats most often only react to those plans.
