"But many of them — more so than last year — don’t want to speak on the record. ... now they’re worried about retribution, for their law firms or their family members, if they draw Trump’s ire."
Then there those blaming Biden

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.”
… but what is plenary authority?

The Antifa round table. Don't you feel you've seen this before? In biology when you find two species with a very similar characteristic you can hypothesize that they're evolutionarily related, or convergent evolution, environ pressure creating the same thing twice. Nazi by choice, or accident?

Q: There's compelling proof that antifa did infiltrate on January 6 dressed up like Trump supporters and incited violence. Is that something you'd like the new J6 committee to look at?
TRUMP: Well I've heard that. Yeah. We will be acting on some of that.

This will be happening at the polls next year, unless the courts and states can prevent it.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Johnson: Miss Grijalva has not yet had a scheduled date because she was elected after the house was out of session,
Gallego: You don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge.
Johnson: You guys are experts at red herrings.

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Today, Senator Kaine and I will force the Senate to vote on the administration’s decision to blow up ships in the Caribbean.
If a president can unilaterally put people or groups on a list and kill them, there is no meaningful limit to his use of force.

The Supreme Court disagrees. If we get past this, if the pendulum can still swing back (and that's a big if), we really must fix the Constitution with more amendments to prevent the mad president syndrome.

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

Last night, my team filed a motion to defend voters in California.
DOJ sued 8 states. My firm has filed to protect voters in all 8 states.
We will never back down from the fight to protect free and fair elections.
