I sort of want to go check out the No Kings protest in the next town over, but I don’t reckon it’s worth the effort in such a red state. I’ll be there for karaoke tonight, so I’ll guess I’ll report on if there are any lingering Happenings.
 
Clarification:
You're on the right track, but that's not the vote itself (which is immediately below that). That's a motion that passed before the final vote on the bill. However, Hoffman also voted negative in the final vote anyways (which succeeded 37 against 30), so it's kind of a moot point.
Some were speculating that Sen Hoffman and Rep Hortman were targeted for breaking with Democrats on certain issues. I'm looking through voting records for Hoffman, he voted nay on HF1, the healthcare coverage for illegal migrants repeal, and he seems to generally have the usual libshit stances (three bills with 'African' in the title, lol). Others said this already but because I'm not the biggest fan of twitter caps, here are the House votes in which Hortman voted yea to repeal, and here are the Senate votes in which Hoffman voted nay.
vote.webp
I won't pretend I don't hope the perpetrator is on the other team, but -if- that is true it would be a case of not doing their research and shooting themselves in the foot. It remains to be seen.
