ANOTHER AG SET TO POUNCE

“Trump Was Doing Things That Were Illegal and Unconstitutional”

#Massachusetts’ #MauraHealey on Prosecuting a President

She fought dozens of cases against the Trump #DOJ. Now she’s looking ahead to a Biden administration

#MOG vanityfair.com/news/2020/12/m…
AG #MauraHealey , “... it is important that Donald Trump, his enablers, those who acted in concert with him and furthered actions that may have been illegal, criminal or otherwise, are held accountable.”

#MOG
[We had to] defend the Constitution, to protect the rule of law, we found ourselves taking Donald Trump and his administration to court over 100 times, but it was absolutely necessary. The good news is we won over 80% of those cases…

The numbers are staggering...

#MOG
I felt like we went up against a high caliber #DOJ. The problem for them was that they actually didn’t have the defense.

Trump was doing things that were illegal and unconstitutional. That’s why we had the success rate that we had. These really weren’t even close calls.

#MOG
Only 6 of the 138 lawsuits brought against the Trump were joined by Republican AG

[The] reason why some Republicans chose not to join. Some of it is philosophy. That’s okay. [The rest was] intimidation and fear, the way that Trump took over the Republican Party.

BREAKING

Supreme Court dismisses Texas AG bid... #TrumpLOSERofTheYEAR

“Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another state conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot”

#MOG washingtonpost.com/politics/court…
Trump, who has appointed three of the court’s nine members, has long viewed the Supreme Court as something of an ace-in-the-hole, and called for the justices to display “courage” and rescue him in post-election litigation.
The election results have been certified in each state, and the Electoral College is scheduled to meet Monday

Biden has 306 electoral votes. But while Trump lost the popular vote then, Biden has a margin of +7 million votes

+1,500 Attorneys Call for SANCTION of #Trump’s Legal Team

"Every attorney, including the organized bar and disciplinary authorities, should disavow lawyers who trample the truth and undermine democracy through their false statements”

#MOG
commondreams.org/news/2020/12/0…
#Trump lawyers are abusing their law licenses and positions as officers of the court

"'President's Lawyers Trash American Democracy' is a headline we never expected to see. To mitigate the harm such tactics can inflict, the bar must forcefully repudiate their behavior."

#MOG
"Giuliani and certain Trump campaign lawyers have either been lying to the public or believe frivolous and unfounded claims, calling into question their fitness to practice law."
—#CherylNiro, LDAD

But #Trump is making money on this process...

#StephanieRuhle - My family's Covid diagnosis

Had we not gotten my husband tested, we would have kept our kids in school, exposing our family, our kids' classmates and our colleagues.

We were a day away from unknowingly becoming #SuperSpreaders

#MOG nbcnews.com/think/opinion/…
His rapid test came back positive.

We weren't naive enough to think driving home with my head out the window with two masks on would stop me from getting it, too. If he had it, I knew that meant I did or soon would. So we needed to figure out the next two weeks quickly.

#MOG
I self-quarantined in a guest room above our garage, separate from my kids. I didn't see them for an entire week. They were forced to take care of themselves while I was isolated

Our neighbours and family dropped off meals at our doors; I am incredibly thankful — and lucky...

75% of White #Evangelicals Made a Deal With Trump... the DEVIL

Now What?

While most of America tired of the president’s impieties, the born-again found in themselves a higher tolerance for sin.

#MOG
nymag.com/intelligencer/…
#Trump’s sins are legion

Lest we forget:

-He tear-gassed protesters so he could walk to a church and hold a Bible upside-down in front of it without interference.

-He lied and cheated, and smeared women who accused him of sexual assault.

-He separated migrant children

#MOG
+280K Americans died of the coronavirus, while he railed against doctors and scientists trying to save lives.

Not even a plague turned #Evangelicals from their earthly lord.
