The direct participation of Foley and Lardner partner, Cleta Mitchell, in Trump's attempt to coerce the GA Secretary of State into 'finding' 11,779 votes is reprehensible and, unless comprehensively disavowed by the firm, will severely tarnish the firm's reputation.
I intend to communicate directly with all of the individuals listed here, and encourage others to do so. They should know that, if they condone or look away from Ms. Mitchell's actions, severe public censure will follow.

A lot of talk about 'expelling' GOP members, or 'not seating' them, pointing to supposed Civil War precedents. Here are the facts:
senate.gov/about/powers-p…
As war neared, and Southern states passed their respective Acts of Secession, most of their Representatives and Senators 'withdrew' from the U.S. Congress (voluntarily). What to do with their vacant seats was then hotly debated.
After hostilities commenced, and some Southern politicians who had *not* 'withdrawn' from the Congress actually took up arms against the U.S., they were expelled for sedition and rebellion.

Re. "Our IC knows the score" (tweet below). There are going to be a lot of questions asked, when the Trump tragedy finally ends, about who knew what, when. LOTS of people, not just in the formal IC, know a LOT about the Trump-Russia pact, about Trump's TNOC connections, etc.
We all know about the importance of protecting sources & methods. We all know that flesh and blood people can be (and have been) endangered by disclosure of intelligence. But there's a balance to be struck.
I'm not out for scalps, but do believe we've got to have a full accounting of what's gone on. We cannot allow this passage of our history to be shrouded in mystery, to give rise to generations' worth of 'Who Killed JFK ?' conspiracy theorizing. We've got to lance it now.

@TepiZep @PollyCHaag On TT payments, anything beyond the single digit millions that NYT reported he’s received over 5-10 yr period would be outside his contract with Dogan Group and I don’t see that as a feasible mechanism.+
@TepiZep @PollyCHaag On other possible mechanisms, you start with the fact that the Turkish presidency has a very large “dark” (not publicly disclosed or audited) slush fund, ostensibly to be used for secret nat’l sec purposes.+
@TepiZep @PollyCHaag You would also have to take notice of the complex network of offshore companies, revealed in the so called Black Sea papers, operated by members of Erdogan’s family and close associates.+

Apropos discussion of how well the ‘guardrails’ have held up in the face of a vicious frontal assault: my perspective is ‘pretty well.’
Notwithstanding McConnell’s maniacally obsessed “court packing,” the judiciary has largely maintained its independence and been a reliable bulwark (look at the box score Marc Elias’ team has compiled).
The MSM has performed patchily at times, but has never come under Trump’s sway (which is what happens in authoritarian states), and has been a key source of information throughout.

Emily Murphy’s cavalier disregard for her statutory duty is emblematic of the entire Trump regime’s attitude: laws mean nothing. They’ve stood “government of laws, not of men” on its head. It’s the essence of authoritarianism.
Here’s how another official’s refusal to perform statutory ministerial duties went. Lawyers need to look at suing @GSA Murphy in her individual capacity. Officials can’t act or refuse to act on the basis of personal beliefs. It’s the LAW that governs.

THREAD (please RT, and spread info to friends beyond Twitter):

An old friend in Atlanta who’s deeply involved in Dem Party of GA (DPG) efforts in the 2 U.S. Senate run-offs sends this important information about how to contribute:
If you want to max out to Warnock ($2800/person) and Ossoff ($2800/person), plus give an additional amount to DPG, use this link secure.actblue.com/donate/dpg-fin….
If you have already maxed out to the candidates and want to give more to DPG, use this link: secure.actblue.com/donate/dpgfina…. Funds sent to the DPG will go to the Voter Protection team and other critical efforts, including GOTV.
