It is not yet known what he’ll do but Moore may be announcing whether or not he will be running for the U.S. senate seat held by Luther Strange, who replaced Jeff Sessions after he was appointed the U.S. Attorney General.
Moore has garnered controversy during his career, namely for his refusal to remove a Ten Commandments statue in the state judicial building. He was removed in 2003 but was reelected in 2012.
In 2016 Moore was suspended for violating judicial ethics in regard to the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on gay marriage.
Moore had issued orders to Alabama Judges to ignore the ruling, causing him to lose his position.

In other news after being removed from the State Supreme Court twice, Judge Roy Moore seeks a higher office to get removed from.

On the bright side… he might go to jail like many others have.
Jeremy Horton
Shouldn’t there be a law on the books that if you are removed from a public office you are disqualified from running for anything else?

Well… every village has an idiot. He’s Alabama’s. The sad thing is, there are people who would actually vote for this Twinkie.

Stand With Judge Moore I am not ashamed to say I respect you for taking the stand you took & remaining firm in your convictions. We need honest politicians to interpret the Constitution as written.

Roy Moore likes to hear sound of his own name he is an embarrassment to the state of Alabama. He needs to just go away and take care of his family
