Re: DCC and the embattled Judge James Boasberg...Rao and Walker, the Gruesome Twosome, are unrelenting in their dismissal of Boasberg's attempts to bring compliance with his orders to the DOJ.
Those two keep drawing the assignment to shit all over Boasberg's rulings, and how many of these 3-judge decisions can be maintained before a definitive en banc hearing can put it to rest? I mean, it just the same old same old every bloody time, so let's move it to the DCC majority and end the blockage, already.
Gonna repeat myself by repeating what should be obvious to everyone who’s been paying attention: Trump has the respect for the rule of law like every mafia don (pun, of course) ever. And we knew how badly he wanted a simpatico AG eg one without much respect for the rule of law since 2019 or so.
But actually, as we should know or recollect as the case may be, it’s worse in that SCOTUS has had comparable disrespect for since Roberts appointment, and of course there was that highlight of jurisprudence by fiat, Bush v Gore.
So with the highest court in the land committed to putting party before law, it shouldn’t be surprising that the circuit courts of appeal have a comparable respect for the law. (Not a defense of any the POS. Just context. OTOH, Biden went on record being cool with the Roberts court so who am I to disagree with so beloved a POTUS?)
Meanwhile, my question is still going unanswered re the Iran war criming: Why would Iran enter into any broad deal when the counterparty is completely untrustworthy and previously tore up a prior agreement for absolutely no good reason. Things’ll likely be different in a couple of months, but now? And now that I think about it, maybe Iran will choose to do Trump a solid and sign a peace deal in October to help Donny with the election in expectation of thereby getting as much appreciation, as it were, that they got from Reagan. (Young people, Iran helped Reagan get elected and St Ronnie then screwed them big time gifting Iran ten years of war.)
What the hell is wrong with men in politics?!? Someone really needs to study this so we can get them effective medication. Or maybe a tattoo that says "predator". On their foreheads.
Great reporting. Blanche has always been worse than Bondi. Those who are waiting for November to save them will have as long a wait as they’ve had for other assorted saviors. Mass action focusing on the Supreme Court and Trump Vance and their continued untenable occupation of the government.
It's not either/or - electing Dems in the midterms or mass action. It's both/and. November will not completely save us, it will just be a toe-hold, especially if the Dems take the Senate. We should all work to support the Democrats in the toss-up races - ME, MI and OH - once those primaries are over. ME is June 9, MI is August 4th, and OH is May 5th.
What are legal analysts saying about the strength of the DOJ's argument that the Biden DOJ was politically motivated in the Jan 6th prosecutions? Three of the DC Circuit judges have already rejected claims of political motivation. Won't the DOJ have to provide evidence for their claim?
If so, then my guess is this is likely another failed filing of the Trump Admin which they'll take to SCOTUS. That's what they're banking on.

I bellieve it is their inherited predisposition to dominate.

Guess what statute the current DOJ is using to prosecute Don Lemon? The FACE act.
Dystopia, but we just bump along… So many authors wrote about such but half of the country supports such, Ugh

Sad to say, but what's new? This is the same old same old moving a bit faster with Blanche's
foot on the pedal at DoJ.
