This thread explains how I got to the "Trump Accountability Project" enemies list since it's not publicly accessible anymore. /1
I saw this tweet from AOC: Image
And I noticed this reply tweet: Image
So I clicked on @trumpaccproject & got this: Image
So I clicked on:

"trumpaccountability.net"
And that took me to: Image
So, I clicked on "See the List" & at that time, it took you here: Image
Now it takes you here: Image
And, once I saw what it was, I took all the screen shots, and then I backed up to the original tweet 👇to see who this guy was. Image
And this is who he is: Image
And then I searched for "Trump Accountability Project" and similar terms & came up with these: ImageImage
Which takes you to these two "winners." ImageImage
Because they are doing this all out in the open, because they are totalitarian thugs.
But after I started tweeting about it, they took off two of the tabs from their list: the "Appointees" tab and the "Donors" tab, which had the list of judges and campaign donors. See 👇 ImageImage
And, eventually they made the whole list private, although you can still access it here:
web.archive.org/web/2020110621…
They left their website up, but they made some significant changes to it. Here: (left is original) ImageImage
And here: (left is original). Evidently they figured out, at a minimum, that putting judges and donors on an enemies list was probably a bad idea. 🙄 ImageImage
And like the cowards that these people always are, they have now made their accounts private. Image
Image
Oh, and they have this site up, where they still mention the judiciary, and call their enemies list a "registry." 🙄 Image
And here's the start of my thread with the full list in tweet thread form. At the end there are links to other ways to see it also.

Invoke your inner libertarian!

Step 1: Practice saying these every day:

1. To each their own.
2. So what.
3. Not my problem.
4. Doesn’t affect me.
5. Mind your own business.

Get used to thinking like that. Because for 85% (at least) of things - that’s the right answer.
Step 2: Make a list of the issues in the 15% of things where those aren’t the right answers.

Like protecting the vulnerable from bullies & predators & minority view holders from majority tyrants; free speech, freedom of conscience; US sovereignty; etc.

It’s a short list really.
Step 3: Prepare for what you’re willing and able to do to speak or act when those 15% of issues come up.

Otherwise, roll out the sayings in Step 1.

If we all acted more in a libertarian way in every day life, we’d all be better off & half our problems would disappear.

Be informed & don’t be naive.

DOJ had gotten indictments on Comey & James. And I’m personally satisfied that both are likely guilty (based on the available known facts at this moment) & that their prosecutions are justified & warranted.
That by no measure means that they will be convicted. They could easily be acquitted or the cases dismissed for legal reasons not related to guilt.
There are issues with both cases. (There are issues with nearly all criminal cases.)

They have or will have good defense lawyers. There are factual and legal defenses and/or difficulties for the prosecutors in both cases. (Comey’s more than James’.)

Federal judges have become so used to issuing opinions & orders that invalidate federal agency actions that they no longer recognize where the line is drawn signaling the end of their power & so they fail to see that they blew past that line miles ago.
Any federal judge thinking they can personally enjoin the POTUS (or the Congress as a body either) has totally lost the plot.

Nor does a federal court have ANY power to dictate what/how the POTUS as Commander in Chief directs active duty military personnel, esp beforehand.
It does not matter that a prior order says that POTUS cannot federalize a state National Guard. POTUS has the power to direct already federalized Guardsman from other states to assist in the carrying out of federal law. That’s not an end run around the earlier ruling.

Should Comey have been charged?

As we discussed on the Spaces last night, I’ve been going back and forth in my mind on this question ever since the indictment dropped. There are competing considerations, but I’ve finally concluded that the answer is yes, he should have been.
It goes without saying that both the lawfare & the coup against Trump were totally unacceptable. And Comey is partly responsible for both. That makes him a traitor to the republic. It doesn’t necessarily mean he broke any federal criminal laws in doing so, although he might have.
Mostly tho, the federal criminal law is not designed to address that conduct. We haven’t needed criminal statutes in the past to tell people not to undermine the duly elected POTUS. Thank goodness, in a way.

Will Comey be convicted?

It’s impossible for any competent lawyer to say with any degree of certainty at this stage - either way.

The indictment is not legally defective as far as I can see.

So it won’t be dismissed on that basis.
The defense has some facts on which to base a vindictive/selective prosecution motion to dismiss.

But those motions fail 99% of the time.
The facts may be weak or they might not be. There aren’t enough of them in the indictment to say at this stage.

But even if they are weak, there is no way before trial to contest them. And Comey is unlikely to plead guilty.

So it’s likely a trial.

The EO banning no cash bail in DC may be legal but doesn’t address the real problem.

DC law permits judges to detain anyone who’s violent/a risk to others or a flight risk. No cash bail is only for people who aren’t. The problem is w/juveniles, not adults getting no cash bail.
And the EO may not be legal actually either. I’d need to go back and look at the authorities closely.

But the fact that the feds have power over DC doesn’t necessarily mean the federal executive branch can do whatever it wants.

Congress has the constitutional power over DC.
Congress definitely has the power to override any DC law. In fact, DC laws don’t go into effect until the Congress either exercises its right to amend them or passes on that.

So, I’m not sure that the POTUS has the authority to override a law that Congress has approved.
