@NRA

1. List domestic terrorist groups and then establish who are members and ban them from all firearms possession. Charge anyone selling or giving them guns or ammo and a lifetime ban from NFA licensing. List QAnon, Proud Boys, Boogaloos and all violent group. Disarm them. @NRA

2. We have this statute on the book: 18 U.S. Code § 2386 - "Registration of certain organizations." Give every group 30 days to be in full compliance or then start charging the leaders. Amend the statute to get the member list not just contributors.

@mtgreenee

3. Make a law to post the members so employers can weed them out of their organizations. They have no right to a job. Any law enforcement or military members should be terminated. #ThisIsNotADrill. You can all thank @mtgreenee and @laurenboebert when your gun lives are destroyed.

@SenateGOP

1. We must address whether the members of the @SenateGOP @HouseGOP who have not denounced the "stop the steal" big lie are currently inciting insurrection. Their failure to denounce Trump continues to feed the flames of the Trump insurrection so they must be charged.

2. If they are afraid for their lives because they have joined a criminal conspiracy that they fear will turn on them if they try to leave, they are no more sympathetic than any organized crime member. But they can resign and simply leave the public eye. Find a place to hide.

3. But if they continue to publicly enable Trump's call to attack the US, they are criminally complicit, and the insurrection will not end. They can and must be charged with incitement of insurrection that carries up to 10 years. Even if they get no prison time conviction bars

@HawleyMO

1. Could be bad news, not only for Donald Trump but IMO also for public officials like the @HawleyMO @tedcruz who, IMO may now be sued for incitement at least for things said off of the floor.

Court let two counts stand against Trump.

2. "Count III of Plaintiffs’ complaint tracks the language of
§ 525.040(1), alleging that “[i]n directing his supporters to eject peaceful protestors using harmful physical force, Trump intended to create a public disturbance involving an assemblage of five or more persons

3. which by tumultuous and violent conduct created grave danger of damage or injury.”
The Court therefore finds that Plaintiffs have
adequately alleged incitement of five or more persons. . .

@Jack

1. Should @Jack @TwitterSupport @TwitterSafety permanently ban all @SenateGOP @HouseGOP who have not denounced the "Stop the Steal" #BigLie predicate for the deadly 1/6 insurrection? How about just banning ones like @HawleyMO & @tedcruz who continue to advance it?

@twitter

2. And though @twitter has section 230 defenses to being sued, @SenateGOP off-the-floor do not. Should the Plaintiff's bar start to punish them for intentional infliction of emotional distress for continuing to advance Trump's insurrection? Is their false speech mail and wire

@SenateGOP

3. fraud, employed to defraud millions of deluded Trump followers from their money and property to fund these politician's Presidential campaigns that promise to continue the insurrection? Why not just bury complicit @SenateGOP in civil litigation for their role in the attack?

@SenatorLeahy

Roberts not presiding puts the Senate trial at risk of collateral attack by #SCOTUS. CJ Roberts should open the trial and hand the gavel to the President Pro Tempore @SenatorLeahy and be presiding to conduct the votes to convict and bar from office. @SenateDems @SenSchumer

Art. I, 3"The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside . . .

@SenSchumer

This bonehead move is slow pitch to the radical right on the Court to let Trump run in 2024. Am I the only person with a copy of the Constitution? If Roberts doesn't want to come, let him resign. @SenSchumer @SenatorLeahy @neal_katyal @tribelaw @SenatorDurbin @RepJerryNadler

1. All those who attacked the Capitol deserve to be punished. Period. But with thousands of potential defendants, the Speedy Trial Act is a problem. It generally requires trial in 70 days for serious misdemeanors or felonies. But Congress can act to appoint temporary Magistrate

2. Judges to conduct proceedings remotely for the least criminal liable defendants. Every trespasser gets a criminal record if convicted. The ones who don't take a general plea offer of guilty or no contest to a trespassing charge are then put in the trial bucket that may result

3. in amended charge that could include a felony insurrection charge carrying 10 years. DOJ & FBI resources can then be focused on the conspirators and major inciters to see that those cases are ready to go to indictment. This is not impossible, but they need to look at ways to
