1. I don't want to lessen the threat that these voter suppression efforts represent but by limiting absentee voting, the GQP is impairing the way much of how its largest demographic votes. Not smart. Also, by trying to suppress POC votes the GQP makes every
2. election an existential threat to @TheDemocrats base, especially POC. Their current push for state legislatures to deny people the right to vote is already building Democratic party turnout for the 2022 midterms.
3. By energizing @TheDemocrats' base the GQP will geta a high Democratic turnout when the GQP will struggle to turn out its own voters. GQP strategy is going to increase or at least hold the Democrats' turnout in an election without the orange pied piper of hate.

1. My parents & 姐姐 were on last ship leaving Shanghai after Truman pulled the fleet, spring of '49. Childhood exposed me to China from birth. I have a degree with a minor in Chinese language taken when that was not common. We used old Yale System conversational Chinese texts.
2. I studied Chinese politics taking a political science degree with a Foreign Relations Certificate. My area was China. Then Hawaii law school where I took a course taught by a member of the PRC State Counsel who presented the new joint venture law.
3. We need to limit all direct trade with Mainland China. We are building the Army tasked to destroy us. If your company supply line uses Chinese parts, I have some free legal advice for you: Talk to a Bankruptcy attorney. You're going to need one.

1. I remember when my brother was tasked with dealing with the Haitian boat people that had begun under Bush41 and continued under Clinton. Janet gave him the task in part because he was jokingly termed the Ambassador to Florida. Both sides allowed him to take the actions they
2. knew had to be done. Rather than use it for more gotcha politics, the Orin Hatch headed GOP just let him do his job and the crisis ended. John had become known in Florida as the first prosecutor to convict white police for killing blacks in Dade county.
3. The Koch-fueled hatred that makes up the GQP raison d'être makes a bipartisan immigration fix impossible. We should not waste time on white supremacists and the GQP's prurient interest in the rights of immigrant children does little to advance their interests that were

1. Does @POTUS have power to ban assault rifles without Congress on board? Perhaps. First, remember the text of the 2nd Amendment? “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
2. The Heller case didn’t cite the relevant law and dealt with an esoteric discussion of the 2nd Amendment divorced from the statutory underpinning that currently gives power to the framers’ plan to establish federal control of regulated citizen soldiers.
3. Are you in the Militia? If you’re a male, between 17 and 45 or a female in the Guard, you’re likely in the Militia. law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10…

So what? Well, @POTUS commands the Militia. 10 U.S.C. § 253 provides that

“The President, by using the militia or the armed forces,

1. Listening to call in Judge Amit Mehta's DC court to address Michael Sherwin's @60Minutes interview. LP Edwards, two supervisors John Crab Crim Div Head. Joseph Cuny [sp] also a supervisor. And someone named Basset. Gregory Mazel [sp] US attorney supervisor.
2. Amit Mehta is an Obama appointee and has a background as public defender. All judges enforce the rules but I would think a defense attorney would be especially sensitive to a violation of the local rules.
3. Calling the case.
