THREAD: Delaware County, PA lawsuit has many more details beyond the whistleblower videos I posted last night. Posting several excerpts until complaint is live.
2/ Here are the videos from last night, to refresh your recollection.
10/ Of note, no federal claims, which easily could have been alleged based on facts alleged of violation of EP, right to vote, and conspiracy to violate constitution. Likely to force the case to stay in the state court system. More lawsplaining tomorrow, but reason
11/11 videos provided yesterday, which were also filed with court as exhibits, is clear. Folks can "get" "It's a felony." Wading through the minutia of 91 pages of a detailed complaint that is more law & violations of election law than incriminating statements loses people.

The Maryland Father's attorneys sure seemed to be playing fast and loose with the facts!
2/ Garcia: "I won't plead guilty unless you deport me to Costa Rica."
DOJ: "Well, if you insist."
Garcia: "Judge you must dismiss this case because they are forcing me to plead guilty."
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: Another Trump win on appeal with D.C. Circuit vacating preliminary injunction. Order isn't loading yet so details to follow. 1/
2/ Here's what the case is about:
3/ And this isn't one of the cases where things were stayed, meaning this decision now frees the Trump Administration to get back to work. The court had originally stayed a portion of the injunction, allowing Trump to fire folks but then Plaintiffs claimed Trump didn't make individualized assessment so Court of Appeals decided it wasn't going to get into that morass and just said Trump can't fire anyone (it shouldn't have and I believe one of the judge's dissented on that cop out).
2/ So as background this is the consolidated (joined) cases involving USAID where the district court originally ordered payment of millions within like 36 hours and Justice Roberts granted an administrative stay and then said basically redo so it is feasible.
3/ The judge sorta redid and Trump has been complying, i.e., there was no stay in place so this is a WIN. Trump has also sought dismissal which should be granted based on this decision. AND the plaintiffs sought to enforce AND to depose to enforce so the ruling will 86 that!
