Lawfare warrior Donald Trump has egg on his face
Pride is no impediment to President Donald Trump's lust for lawfare. Lately, Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress have targeted California in a series of ludicrous attempts to overthrow a state law, Proposition 12, aimed at minimizing cruelty to animals, in particular chickens.
Prop 12, or the Farm Animal Confinement Initiative, passed in 2018, requires that any animal that is sold as food in California — including chickens, pigs and cows — be provided enough room to 'lie down, stand up, fully extend its limbs, and turn around freely,' regardless of where it is raised. Otherwise, it is banned from sale within the state.
