BEJESUS DA Bragg going HAM on Jordan —he’s taking Jordan to the woodshed & it’s glorious
“Basic principles of federalism and common sense, as well as binding Supreme Court precedent, forbid Congress from demanding it.
Congress has no power to supervise state criminal… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
On one hand Jordan has crossed the rubicon of “legislative purpose” to an outright Trump swordsman. But Bragg reminds Jordon et al of the most basic constitutional rails. Yet Jordan is undeterred in touch their 3rd rail & his ass is going to get scorched
‘’ONGOING CRIMINAL… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
summary: there is ZERO legislative purpose for Jordan’s demands (spoiler Jordan knows this but his servile service to Trump actually trumps Jordan’s commonsense) it’s about sovereignty and states rights enshrined in our Constitution (Jim’s an idiotic mealy mouthed MAGA-stooge)… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
Do me a HUGE favor run a word search: “ongoing criminal investigation“ (pages 7 & 24) that KEY phrase is likely going to be overlooked and it shouldn’t

I regret to inform you that he has no such protections regarding a criminal State matter. If this is the hill Jordan wants to die on, so be it but there’s a reason Jordan… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImageImage
TRO requested along with a permanent injunction —some might argue that’s a bit heavy handed but I’d say DA Bragg’s pragmatic approach resulted in today‘s reqyesterday

“A declaratory judgment that the subpoena served on Mr. Pomerantz is invalid,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
You get what @grantstern is saying here right? That MAZARs ruling went up to SCOTUS —thus foreclosing on Jordan’s potential move to a Fed Dist Ct but more importantly it established a binding precedence
let me translate:
Jordan & Trump you keep it up at this rate DA Bragg might up charging you with conspiracy to obstruct justice, witness tampering etc
You did NOTthink this through
YOU‘ve OPENED yourself (and Trump) to discovery
#dipshits
Come ON —yes I’m criticizing DA Bragg because this is a rookie mistake:
“reference a Declaration of Theodore J. Boutrous, Jr., but the Court has not been provided with this document yet, nor is it on the docket. The Court also has not been provided with a copy of the subpoena… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage

The report is largely reiterative of what’s been publicly known (especially considering the various docket entries
Notwithstanding I’ve previously suggested that you bookmark Special Counsel Smith’s main DOJ landing page (embedded below)
justice.gov/sco-smith
Jan 14 2025 formal notice to AG Garland: justice.gov/storage/Garlan…
Jan 14 2025 Final Report Volume I
justice.gov/storage/Report…
Again the report doesn’t have a shocking amount of new information
Below is an abbreviated list of a few new tidbits I found noteworthy.
For example :
-Smiths fully explained the election interference case and specifically describing it “ the national interest in ensuring legitimate presidential elections and peaceful transitions of power”
-Smith was very specific & noted aforesaid edicts issued by Trump were “command protection from Mr. Trump’s criminal design to subvert them…”
-Smith specifically brought charges a year in advance as to not infringe on the DOJ’s longstanding SAMs particularly those regarding prosecution of current lawmakers
-the footnotes are incredibly important, I’d strongly recommend you read those carefully
Source: justice.gov/storage/Report…
Additionally Smith & his investigative team found concrete evidence that Trump & his closest surrogates engaged in a coordinated pattern of harassment, bullying and “pressure” which caused grave concerns about the various witnesses
The Rep Perry footnote is very interesting largely because we all knew Perry was likely directed to delay turning over the records…
But these 4 pages really elucidated the corrupt coordination by Trump & his surrogates that resulted in increased police protection AND SC Smith sought an order regarding 3rd party statements that both doxed & harassed the government witnesses

Color me actually surprised because the Oral Arguments at least 6 Justices seemed rather skeptical and unconvinced with TikTok & their creators arguments
SCOTUS Oral Arguments supremecourt.gov/media/audio/mp…
SCOTUS (unofficial) transcript
supremecourt.gov/oral_arguments…
shall we? x.com/File411/status…
What’s interesting is both Chief Justice Roberts & Justice Kavanaugh literally called BS on TikTok’s arguments with respect to Congress’ intent in the language and authority
Roberts:
“about what the foreign adversary is doing.”
I believe the precise moment TikTok lost Kavanaugh
” Does Congress have to go all or nothing on that? ”
Source (unofficial) transcript
supremecourt.gov/oral_arguments…Image
Image

Here you can observe that Justice Kagan actually drills down on the TikTok creators unpersuasive arguments that the Ban would hamper creators first amendment right. We’ve previously discussed why the TikTok creators arguments are fraught with infirmities that have a significantly higher standard of scrutiny
But I genuinely recommend you read pages 30 thru 42 because this exchange really encapsulates SCOTUS’ skepticism
“incidental effect” <—that delineation & arguments surrounding said effect are absolutely fascinating

Things that make me Spicy curious to read an entire docket because there are some incredibly juicy nuggets in the various declarations

IRS Obtains Court Order Authorizing “John Doe” Summonses For Records Relating To U.S. Taxpayers Who May Have Used Network Of Offshore Service Providers To Hide Assets And Evade Taxes justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/i…Image
Image
On Dec 17, 2024 the Government filed a Memorandum of Law (in support of said petition)
Corp Target: Trident Trust Group as elucidated in the Govt’s Memo
-the IRS identified multiple tax payers utilizing Trident services to evade taxes but this definitely raised my spicy meter
“U.S. taxpayers who, at any time during the years ended December 31, 2014, through December 31, 2023, used the services of the Trident Trust Group (“TT-Group”) to establish, maintain, operate, or control: any foreign financial account or other foreign asset; any foreign corporation, company, trust, foundation, or other legal entity; or any foreign or domestic financial account or other asset in the name of such foreign entity”
Source Doc No 3: ecf.nysd.uscourts.gov/doc1/127036665…Image
Image
Image
And while most will overlook some key facts, I’m not like most:
-original jurisdiction SDNY
-see page 3 which reads in part (this is important)
“Northern District of Georgia and the District of South Dakota, to serve John Doe summonses on the TT-Group entities based in those districts, seeking information regarding the same class of clients.”
But the footnote is equally as important because it provides you with a justification for SDNY but it also provides two separate entities
Nevis Services Limited is a New York corporation functioning as a liaison and marketing affiliate
of Morning Star Holdings Limited (later TT-Nevis).

Well it’s almost like someone said (about a month ago) that the TikTok Creators would likely have to file their own brief because TikTok opted to use these creators as a proxy for why SCOTUS shouldn’t uphold the lower courts rulings. But they lost me ENTIRELY with this paragraph

“First, it does not matter that TikTok has a foreign
owner. American creators have a First Amendment
right to speak to other Americans in the United States
with the assistance of a foreign publisher or other
collaborator”
The fact that these creators conveniently omitted that each of them make significant revenue that TikTok pays them. That should NOT be overlooked, at all
Source: supremecourt.govImage
Image
Image
Image
What I really find objectionable is the TikTok creator’s brief absurdity of cherry picking Whitney v. California, 274 U.S. 357 (1927) and drawing a collary of their 1st Amendment Rights

“The Court found that the Act violated neither the Due Process nor the Equal Protection Clauses, and that freedom of speech guaranteed by the First Amendment was not an absolute right.”
I mean FFS perhaps you can pull this kind of judicial dishonesty at a district court level but SCOTUS?
Nope they will literally take your misleading argument to the woodshed and then to the wood chipper. Come on this brief is drowning in truncated & cherry picked judicial findings.
Conclusory arguments are also not typically well received either but I digresshttps://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24/24-656/336546/20250103152823511_Firebaugh%20v.%20Garland%20--%20Reply%20Merits%20Brief.pdf
Image
Image
Image
Summary: these TikTok creators are paid 10s to hundreds of thousands of dollars by TikTok
-the 1st Amendment isn’t as ubiquitous as many think it is
-a National Security threat usually trumps virality
-I genuinely find it distasteful that TikTok probably spent >$4M on an intense PR campaign which featured creators across multiple genres within TikTok
But seriously if you want the Chinese Government to have neat unfettered access to your data, meta data, purchases and web traffic (affiliated links etc) fine but don’t come crying when every single device in your home suddenly has malware & your locked out of your financial institution(s) because Chinese Hackers were given orders by their Government

As someone who lives part time at the Ocean, I did not have this on my President Biden bingo card. And when I say this is a very BFD it is:
so ICYMI the ENTIRE East Coast of America from Maine to Florida
“FACT SHEET: President Biden Protects Atlantic and Pacific Coasts from Offshore Oil and Gas Drilling “
source: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…Image
Image
Not yo belabor the significance of today‘s actions
-Biden has always been consistent about Climate Change
-the ENTIRE East Coast (ME to FL)
-the West Coast CA, OR & WA
-and the remaining portions of the Bering Sea
Source: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…Image
Image
Lastly I would urge you to read President Biden’s official statement for today‘s action because it will help you understand both content & context which are NOT mutually exclusive

Son of a biscuit muncher. So here we can observe @mattgaetz pressuring his supplier on when his “care package” would arrive the care package are drugs, illegal drugs and it’s not pot it’s likely coke, crack or hash. This is just beyond
HE FUCKING USED THE @USPS to BUY DRUGS
Can someone please explain to me WHY @TheJusticeDept didn’t indict a CHILD RAPIST, drug user, drug trafficker, sex trafficker who broke federal law making under aged sex a fucking felony? or how about the fact he used drugs WHILE IN CONGRESS?

Hey have ANY of you gotten to the DHS exhibit because WTF.
that acronym means: Treasury Enforcement Communications System, Note the disclosure because I’m SHOCKED the MSM has‘t talked about this
TECS was specifically set up (by Treasury) to blunt CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING like WTF MSM. The Bahama trip is where a witness testified that the luxury trip & 5 star hotel was payment to have sex with him while he was high as a fucking kite on ecstasy after snorting coke laced with ecstasy
ethics.house.gov/press-releases…Image
I don’t gatekeep, the text messages where @mattgaetz nit only solicited illicit drugs (from his dealer) BUT they used the USPS
Anyone else indicted for using USPS to traffic drugs has a statutory minimum
YET a CHILD FUCKING RAPIST? Nope zero charges
Appendix B part 1 -VENMO payments

Appendix B part 2 (USPS used to deliver drugs, pages 6 -16)
