The rule of law is not just some lawyer's turn of phrase. It is the very foundation of our democracy.

The essence of the rule of law is that like cases are treated alike.

That there not be one rule for Democrats and another for Republicans, one rule for the powerful, another for the powerless, one rule for the rich, and another for the poor, or different rules depending upon one's race or ethnicity.

To serve as attorney general at this critical time is the calling I am honored and eager to answer.

So yeah, now it's clean up on aisle 45 time, and for a long while yet it is going to be clean up on aisle 45.

Welcome to episode 143 of clean up on aisle 45. It's Wednesday, October 18th. I'm your host Pete Struck.

Hey Pete, I'm Allison Gill. And before we get to the news, we have nearly 100 new patrons this week, which just blows my mind.

And we're going to continue to shout out our new patrons, but to limit trolls who would sign up to get us to say something and then canceling,

we're going to shout out y'all after 30 days of being with us. So we'll start the clock now and we'll thank our Hall of Famers for the next few weeks.

Also, I know that we've said Pete that you could put any name down and we would read any name, but it should go without saying that we can't read anything that would violate the law or negatively impact either of our ongoing litigations.

So I just wanted to put that out there. We won't be able to read anything that could violate those things. I figured that would go without saying we haven't seen anything like this. We haven't seen any trolls.

But the show is starting to pick up and it's starting to get really popular and you know with with the amount of new subscribers and oh my gosh, thank you so much for subscribing.
