The @CivilRights is investigating the potential violations of the federal FACE Act by these people desecrating a house of worship and interfering with Christian worshippers. @AGPamBondi
Our @AGPamBondi is the most pro-2A AG in US history, and this is a very bad take on many levels. According to the video, the supposed “straw that broke the camel’s back” is that DOJ asked a federal court to require pro-2A groups to submit lists of their members. That is false.
Here’s what actually happened: After the 5th Circuit held that the federal ban on FFL handgun sales to those under 21 violated the #2A, the AG declined to further appeal that ruling. The remaining issue was the scope of the injunction. After a hard-fought win for the President on nationwide injunctions in Trump v. CASA, DOJ obviously could not agree to a nationwide injunction in any other case—or any injunction that would effectively serve as a CASA workaround. So….
3/ … In the 5th Circuit case, DOJ agreed to an injunction throughout the 5th Circuit, as well as an injunction for any known members of the plaintiff organizations located anywhere else in the country. In response, the court ordered something DOJ did not ask for—it ordered the plaintiffs to submit members lists. On Friday, DOJ and the plaintiffs submitted a joint filing asking the court to correct that misstep. This is just one example of what we do every day at DOJ: we do everything we can to protect civil rights—including the long-neglected right to keep and bear arms—while more broadly advancing the President’s agenda and the rule of law./
100 days ago, I stepped into this role with one goal: restore equal justice under the law. Thanks to @realDonaldTrump and @AGPamBondi, the Civil Rights Division is back on mission.
