So according to Republicans not only is it ok to discriminate it’s also ok to harass someone. But not if it’s Republicans that are be harassed or discriminated against. Then it’s not ok.
From the article…
”WASHINGTON, D.C. — On Thursday, June 29, Sigal Chattah — a prominent Nevada Republican with “significant ties” to the conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 election — filed a lawsuit on behalf of four Nevadans challenging the state’s recently enacted law designed to protect election officials from intimidation, harassment and election interference.
Enacted in late May, in response to alarmingly high rates of threats to election officials, Election Worker Protection Law, or Senate Bill 406, creates new offenses to protect election officials from intimidation and election interference.
The new law states that it is illegal for anyone to “use or threaten or attempt to use any force, intimidation, coercion, violence, restraint or undue influence with the intent to: (a) Interfere with the performance of the duties of any elections official relating to an election; or (b) Retaliate against any elections official for performing duties relating to an election.” Additionally, S.B. 406 prohibits the dissemination of “any personal identifying information or sensitive information of an elections official without the consent of the elections official.”

SCOTUS overturned a conviction for cyber stalking for a guy who sent a woman over 1000 messages over 2 years despite her blocking his account 4 separate times. Obviously harassment is just fine with them, it’s free speech and should be protected. Harassment is perfectly fine apparently. Well, it’s fine by them until you meet them in public and free speech at them. Then apparently it’s horrible according to MTG |

A question... Walt Nauta has retired from the Navy after 20 years. Is he or should he be able to continue to collect it? Better yet why don't they recall him and hold a Court Martial? Nauta, a Guam native who enlisted in the Navy in 2001, worked in the Trump White House, where in 2021 he was promoted to the rank of Senior Chief Culinary Specialist, according to Navy records. Trump, according to investigators, subsequently promoted Nauta to be his valet, otherwise known as a "body man." After Trump left the White House and moved to Florida, Nauta left the Navy and continued to work for the former president. In August 2021, Nauta became Trump's executive assistant, serving as his personal aide, a role in which he "reported to Trump, worked closely with Trump and traveled with Trump," according to the federal indictment. abc7chicago.com/walt-nauta-arraignment-donald-trump-classified-documents-case-lawyer/13467918/ |

Delaying tactic? How long I wonder before he starts to see the disparity between Trumps defence team and his own, paid for as it is by Trump. I've read Smith doesn't need Nauta to flip though so he's unlikely to be offered a deal even if he wanted one. The fact they have that biased Judge and that there's Pics of Trump and Nauta eating together makes a mockery of the whole thing. |

Here we go again. Protecting trump instead of holding him accountable for his actions.
I remember this and once trump caught wind of this text between Strzok and Page and with what Strzok had/was investigating the couple became the “star” of his tweets. And you know how he gets when he identifies his perceived enemies. So he should be deposed. The idea that trump’s hounding the couple had nothing to do with the decision to fire them, well if you believe it didn’t then I know this bridge in SF you can buy real cheap.
The irony of this whole thing is it was a couple of FBI Agents in the New York office who were chummy with Rudy Giuliani was the reason why Comey released the letter about nothing 11 days before the 2016 election which caused Hillary to lose the election. Comey was afraid those agents would leaked the information to Giuliani so to protect the FBI he released the letter. Now I wonder if those agents lost their jobs? My guess is no.
From ABC News…
“Justice Department moves to block Trump deposition after ex-FBI agent Peter Strzok sues over firing”
From the article…
“A week after FBI director Christopher Wray was deposed in a lawsuit over the firing of veteran agent Peter Strzok, the Justice Department is now asking a federal judge to -- once and for all -- block former President Donald Trump from being deposed in the suit.
"[T]he deposition of former President Trump is not appropriate," Justice Department attorneys wrote in a motion to fully quash a subpoena to Trump.
Strzok filed suit against the Justice Department and the FBI in 2019, claiming his First Amendment rights were violated when he was wrongfully terminated the year before over private text messages with then-FBI attorney Lisa Page reflecting anti-Trump sentiments.
In 2016, Strzok had helped launched the FBI's investigation into alleged ties between Trump's presidential campaign and Russia, and he initially joined special counsel Robert Mueller's team but was reassigned after internal investigators discovered the private text messages.
The lawsuit alleges that Strzok's firing "was the result of a long and public campaign by President Trump and his allies to vilify Strzok and pressure the agency to terminate him."
The federal judge presiding over the case, U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson, has called Trump "a key witness to what took place."
But after much legal wrangling, Berman Jackson ruled that Strzok couldn't depose Trump without deposing Wray first, concluding that Wray's statements could render Trump's deposition moot, especially if Wray were to say under oath that the FBI's deputy director -- not Wray -- made the decision to fire Strzok and that he never discussed Strzok's firing or Trump's views about it with the deputy director.“

'Barbie'. ??!??! Walt Nauta, the aide and co-defendant of former President Donald Trump, hired a Florida attorney just hours before his first appearance in a Florida courtroom – a former public defender who brags about her experience with DUIs and misdemeanors and promoted her law firm with a 'hot mess" Barbie doll. *** Dadan, who ran unsuccessfully in the Republican primary for the state legislature, claims to have represented more than 3,000 clients on a variety of charges while working in the public defender's office, and her private practice's website says she has handled civil cases, including domestic violence injunctions and child support matters. Her firm's Twitter account promotes her practice with tongue-in-cheek ads. www.rawstory.com/walt-nauta-2662242722/ |

GOP is talking quietly about bombing or going into Mexico... War anyone? Calls for U.S. attacks on Mexican drug cartels, recently discussed in secret if at all, have become a loudly expressed talking point for Republicans who are trying to exploit the violent rhetoric for political gain, columnist Jean Guerrero wrote for The Miami Herald Thursday. Guerrero notes that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ recent promises to deploy the military against drug cartels, along with his support for executing smugglers and his assertion that “you absolutely can use deadly force,” typify a new tone DeSantis and other Republican presidential candidates have struck in recent months that makes “Build the Wall” seem quaint by comparison.Guerrero writes that “Republican politicians are now expressing their bloodlust in public. As ‘Build the Wall’ loses its edge, ‘Bomb the Mexicans’ is becoming mainstream in the GOP.”DeSantis isn’t alone, Guerrero writes, noting that Donald Trump has called for attacking the cartels “just like we took down ISIS.” Guerrero contends that Republicans aren’t making a good faith argument, and that their rhetoric has more to do with racism than finding solutions to the ongoing opioid crisis. Guerrero writes that “The idea exploits the grief of tens of thousands of Americans who’ve lost loved ones to fentanyl, sometimes made in Mexico with chemicals from China. Republican bills in Congress seek to authorize military force in Mexico. Other legislation would designate cartels in Mexico as foreign terrorist organizations or classify fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.” “No politician has proposed bombing the U.S. corporations behind thousands of opioid-related deaths, but why would they? To rally American support for state violence, bloodmongers need racism.” Guerrero notes that Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) has warned that such proposals could serve to lay the groundwork for a potential Mexican invasion. Guerrero writes that “If Americans understood the economic realities of what drives drug trafficking and migration from the region — including the role U.S. corporations play in propping up corrupt local elites — they wouldn’t be advocating for more bloodshed. But Republican politicians aren’t interested in finding solutions for reducing migrants or for families harmed by opioid addiction. They’re into political gain, by any means necessary.” www.rawstory.com/bomb-the-mexicans/ |

Well.... The judge has ordered TFG to do the depositions.. Donald Trump must reportedly sit for a deposition in a lawsuit brought by former FBI agents alleging the former president violated their privacy and retaliated against them. Legal analyst Lisa Rubin, who recently said Trump's lawyers have become "the most crucial witnesses," posted on Twitter that the deposition would be going forward despite opposition from the DOJ. The DOJ previously had moved to block Trump's deposition, saying it was inappropriate. The judge has now denied that DOJ request. Despite a motion for reconsideration by DOJ, Judge Amy Berman Jackson of the D.C. federal court has ordered that Trump must sit for a limited deposition in Pete Strzok and Lisa Page's lawsuit relating to the violation of their privacy/retaliation," Rubin wrote. IN OTHER NEWS: 'It doesn't snow': MTG cracks cocaine joke as Biden plans to parade in her backyard She added: "In particular, although other depositions have not uncovered evidence of his role, 'the fact remains that the former President himself has publicly boasted of his involvement' and his 'schedule appears to be able to accommodate other civil litigation' he's brought." www.rawstory.com/trump-must-sit-for-deposition/ |

Maybe if they weren’t so readily available and some states not tracking them they wouldn’t be so well armed. I remember when Trump made comments about painting planes to look Chinese and then bombing the cartels. Like they wouldn’t know they were ours. This isn’t new. I think these comments were made before Covid. |
