Babies and borders -- it's the #TantonNetwork.

Lawyer Jim Bopp counts the Federation for American Immigration Reform among his clients.
He's also the Citizens United lawyer and an election denier.

It's always the same people.

Here's a citation that's unfortunately paywalled regarding his relationship with FAIR law360.com/articles/10424…
2014 story pinknews.co.uk/2014/01/14/vid…
Here he is gaslighting away in 2009. "James Bopp Jr., a lawyer from Indiana who filed the lawsuit on behalf of Protect Marriage, said the harassment of Proposition 8 supporters violated their constitutional rights of free speech and assembly."

A very small group of far-right radicals have finally seized power thanks to a whole lot of corrupt help, foreign and domestic. This is yet another stage of a global far right power grab and a takeover attempt, and the first step in fighting it is recognizing that.

It's not strange so much as it's part of a larger attack that runs on using weaponized disinformation campaigns to leverage all the ills that a dramatically changing climate brings -- such as pandemics -- in order to put the global far right in power, all over the world
That's being done with the blessing and overt help (Cambridge Analytica was just the beginning) of corporations, particularly energy and tech. You can fight it with journalism, academia, unionizing, whatever fights coordinated disinfo campaigns aimed at splitting up social bonds.
An easy way to understand the goal of a weaponized narrative is to look at where it was deployed in the past. For example, the 1950s-era Doctor's Plot has been reappropriated and burnished by antivaxxers and anti-maskers. Here's what it did back then: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Of course they did. QAnon was always the Protocols to begin with.

This is a filing from the lawyer for the antimasker and antivaxxer group America's Frontline Doctors, James Bopp, who is currently saying little kids should be forced to bear their rapist's babies. He is not a serious person. bopplaw.com/iu-students-fi…
That his rubbing elbows with far right disinformation purveyors is not being brought up every time someone interviews him on abortion rights is criminal.
They should also be bringing this up. He's the lawyer for this bullshit. texastribune.org/2022/06/14/tru…

Babies and borders. #TantonNetwork
It's always the same few dozen people. Please stop pretending this is something other than a coordinated effort by a bunch of anti-democratic power-horny pro-diddler maniacs who think they alone are entitled to rule the world with impunity.

He's also an election denier, #TantonNetwork lawyer, Citizens United champion, and the guy who filed lawsuits against same-sex marriage back in 08

The current discourse about being "allowed" to cross state lines is why I made a point of putting this out there a couple of years ago, after months of second-guessing my own experiences. I was concerned that it was going to come for us all.

I was right.

Here were the results of my FOIA btw
I had something similar happen with the DMV around that same time
