Welcome back to the news, Kentucky. However, before we sift through the continued misadventures of one of America's most (in)famous homophobes, let us consider the glorious silver lining tucked neatly underneath this latest development: Semi-professional bass guitaristMike Huckabee might be going to jail.
When Kim Davis was released from jail earlier this month, to the obvious delight of the entire cast of the forthcoming Beverly Hillbillies reboot (?), U.S. District Judge David Bunning ordered her not to interfere with the issuance of licenses by her fellow employees unless she wanted to return to the comforts of a cell. In a laughably predictable plot twist, Davis has apparently defied that order with obvious intent. According to the Associated Press, an attorney representing Rowan County deputy clerk Brian Mason claims that Davis "confiscated all the original forms" before replacing them with forms that omit her name, the county's name, and any additional references to other clerks:
Lest we forget (we most certainly haven't!), Huckabee recently volunteered his presence should Davis be required to return to jail. Speaking with reporters on the day of Davis' initial release, Huckabee made some predictably inane comparison between being the president (never going to happen, Huck) and going to jail because of some mysterious war on religion:
Anyway, here's a video of Mike Huckabee playing bass, which is definitely something you can't do while in jail:
