She's also apparently fighting her own AG on this? And she called Warnock and Ossoff Communists.

is she aiming for the national stage? otherwise why go against a motion that passed with a nice majority in a conservative state?

Most definitely. Trump already loves her because she downplayed the virus and allowed super spreader events to happen in SD, so she may get his endorsement. She also spoke at the RNC.

Although I don't actually think most Trump supporters care about this anymore. This may just be about the private prison contractors and pharmaceutical giants who will donate to her campaign.

lulz.  Imagine ever thinking that "libertarianism" was closer to conservatism than liberalism on the political spectrum.

On economic issues it is. And guns and most other things. That's why the last two nominees for the LP before No-name Jorgenson were both Republican lawmakers before. Bob Barr went back to the Republican Party and I'm pretty sure he's a Trumper now.

Funny, but aren't the rurals getting billions in Trump welfare?


Yes. A lot of rural areas in the South are dependent on government aid through food stamps, (often) false disability claims, Medicare/Medicaid, etc. And one of the only viable career/education options for kids out of high school is the military welfare program. But it's okay, because they are just temporarily embarrassed millionaires. Whenever the GOP gets back the trifecta and cuts all of their benefits, they will just win the lottery and be fine. At least the blacks won't have rights.
