If Trump is indicted over MAL, he won't be the first presidential candidate to be prosecuted by DOJ. As #AdamHochshild-author of #AmericanMidnight- details on Skullduggery that distinction belongs to Eugene Debs, 5 time Socialist Party candidate, who was charged, convicted...

Luttig: If convicted, ā€œI don’t know that a district court judge would have any choiceā€ but to sentence Trump to prison. ⁦Skullduggery⁩ ⁦Daniel Klaidman⁩ ⁦Victoria B⁩ news.yahoo.com/former-federal…

My contribution to the new art form—the long thread pointing out what strikes me as new and important in the final J6C Report. I also commend other examples in the category from friends and colleagues, eg Ryan Goodman and Norm Eisen. W/ 850 or so pages, more than enuf to go around!

OKAY, here’s the thing about ā€œmembers-electā€: it obscures more than it clarifies, and the House should legislate to clarify going forward. (1/x)

"As we head toward possibly one of the most consequential and fraught presidential elections in history, we can’t be complacent because the pressure is on...We’re going to see everything thrown at the wall, good and bad."— Victoria B explains what's to come. penncapital-star.com/campaigns-elec…

Quite correct; in addition, many states in the 19th century adopted laws enfranchising aliens (not citizens) who had lived in the US for a couple of years and declared their intention to become citizens.

Sixty years ago today, two heroic, courageous and idealistic young Black Americans, Vivian Malone and James Hood, entered the University of Alabama after JFK federalized the Alabama National Guard and Governor George Wallace stepped aside after trying to bar them:

Don’t threaten me with a good time.* * = Getting to write about the Federal Vacancies Reform Act, and DOJ-specific vacancy laws, like it was the Trump days when they just didn’t even nominate people.

The great @JackLGoldsmith’s op-ed @NYTOpinion on the Trump 1/6 indictment is articulate & provocative but wrong The terrible consequences he speculates about are dubious But the terrible consequences of NOT prosecuting are greater & more certain 1/x brookings.edu/articles/democ…
