THREAD: @nytimes broke news this morning re notes of post-election meeting between Trump & top DOJ officials. nytimes.com/2021/07/30/us/… 1/
2/ This section here is absolutely damning:
3/ It reads as if the President told his DOJ to tell American public the election was corrupt even after the DOJ told him there was no evidence to back it up.
4/ But then I remember this is @nytimes. And read on....
5/ This section comes later in the article:
6/ That quote seems very close to the earlier paraphrase, leading me to wonder, did the notes really said in this order:
7/ Such notes have an entirely different meaning than both the intro
8/ And the original presentation:
9/ So which was it @nytimes: Did Trump tell DOJ to say election was corrupt in relation to no evidence off fraud or in response to DOJ saying they could discover quickly if PA had more votes than voters but that they couldn't reverse the election?
10/10 Those are 2 VERY different things. And sadly I don't trust you to report the truth, so how about posting the notes for America to judge?
Notes posted (if accurate) expose @nytimes as fake news again:
🚨New filing in Boasberg Alien Enemies Act case. Amazing this must be said! 1/
2/ That excerpt was from a Declaration filed by Trump Administration in support of its Response in Opposition to New Motion for a Preliminary Injunction. This Response is interesting as it is first effort by Trump Administration to explain whether it is in constructive control
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: Federal district court enters first merits ruling on Alien Enemies Act habeas case. On question of class certification: Court punts on whether class cert. under Rule 23 is available & considers if All Writs Act provides analog, i.e. another way to do a class. 1/
2/ Court holds "yes," so treating it as a class action which allows ACLU to represent all terrorists Trump seeks to remove under Alien Enemies act whether they ask to challenge removal or not!
3/ Note: This remains limited to the jurisdiction of the d.ct. though, so ACLU still seems to need to file "class actions" in all 94 districts...well it would need to if SCOTUS hadn't entered a stay in a non-case with non-plaintiffs already!
🚨Folks, I'm seeing A LOT of what I believe is misreporting regarding an order entered yesterday by Judge Thurston. Her ACTUAL order appears to be consistent with federal law: 1/
2/ So she is NOT saying they can't arrest without a warrant and it should be easy to prove "flight risk" on an individual basis...in fact that's precisely what ICE requires, which prompted Trump Administration to argue case was moot.
3/ So bottom line the ACTUAL order is merely what law requires & policy states, although the "comply with law" injunctions are disfavored. And entering an injunction requiring following of a policy NOT constitutionally required is problematic. That policy concerns documentation
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: On Sunday, @NCLAlegal on behalf of its clients, @FDRLST and @realDailyWire sent letter to Attorney General Bondi in response to President Trump's EO on censorship and Secretary Rubio's recent announcement of closing new censorship HUB is State Department. 1/
2/ The letter applauded the President's change in policy and efforts undertaken to protect First Amendment rights but noted ongoing concerns.
3/ As we explained, Secretary Rubio's recent announcement of shuttering of the new censorship hub actually validates our concerns that bureaucrats continued stealth efforts to target domestic speech in excess of their foreign remit.
🚨Judge just entered clarifying order in case of 2 year old American. Judge's clarification provides helpful context: In short, Judge sees factual dispute concerning whether mom wanted to take 2 year old or not & that is the Court's concern. 1/
2/ (Sorry got pulled away): Judge's comments & order make much more sense now AND if a legitimate habeas case, Judge seeking to make factual determination would be appropriate, although mom's letter has not been called into question by any of evidence.
3/ Problem though is this is not legitimate habeas case because Plaintiff lacks authority to act on behalf of child because there is no evidence dad has any authority to act on behalf of the child. Under Louisiana law, mom has all parental rights if dad & mom weren't married.
