"Trump Accountability Project" threads. I've got 3 threads on this topic. I'm putting them all here together for convenience. 1st is when I stumbled onto it; 2nd is after I took the time to increase the size of the pics & post the entire list, 3rd explains how I got the list. /0
Thread I posted when I first found the Project & began tweeting about it. /1

Thread after I paused to enlarge the pics so I could post the whole list in sequence. /2

Thread about how I found the list (before it got hidden by the authors of the list). There's a little bit of overlap in these 3 threads, but each one has unique content. /3

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.

There once was a General named Clapper,
By trade a clandestine wiretapper,
But he joined the Steele Hoax,
Now his rep is a joke,
And his life is going down the crapper.
There once was a G-man named Comey,
Who didn’t see Steele was a phony,
He said: “Hilary is Ok!,
It’s the Donald who must pay!”
Cause he couldn’t tell shit from baloney.
There once was a lawyer named Page,
Who was lovely but not very sage,
Her texts to her man,
Only helped get him canned,
As they wallowed in impotent rage.

Boiled down:

Hoaxers: “Trump, you can’t be POTUS even tho you just somehow won the election. No, no, no.”

DJT: “Hahahaha. Watch me. Losers!”

Hoaxers:
Hoaxers then proceed to do a whole bunch of things to try to make actual reality -in which DJT is POTUS- match up to their “reality” in which he can’t be.

That’s was IMPOSSIBLE to achieve in Fall & Winter 2016-2017.

But they tried anyway.

It’s a non-rational conspiracy.
Non-rational conspiracy is rare. It’s usually confined to a very small number of people because it’s based on actual mental illness & a few other factors, like coercion &/or psychological pressure. Think Manson Family.

But it can be based on group psychoses or shared psychological stress rather than outright mental illness. Large suicide pacts are an extreme example, like the Jim Jones incident. John Brown’s raid could be seen in this light too. And perhaps the Gunpowder Plot in Britain.

Supreme Court picks - age analysis

I thought I'd take a look & see what I think about whether DJT in his current term and/or JD Vance (assuming he takes it next) or whoever might next be POTUS after DJT will have many SCOTUS picks.

Here's how it shapes up - just based on age.
The "average" age that a Justice retires (either from a voluntary retirement or a death) is about 78/79, but that's based on historical data and the Justices in modern times retire at later ages for a number of reasons.

So, I looked at the actual last ten Justices to retire and/or die (which yielded two slightly different groups as 2 have retired but not yet died so there's no # for their death age to use.)
If you average the ages of the last 10 retirement ages, you get 82.3 years of age, & if you average the last 10 death ages (many of which are after retirement), you get 87.9 years of age. So, taking that range, how many years before the current Justices likely leave the Court, one way or the other?
