In that town I'm willing to bet she is besties with many Perkins Coie attorneys and routinely attends dinner parties with them.

When those private law firms are full of establishment operatives who have been targeting Trump for the last several years and making up bullshite hoaxes to wage lawfare against him, literally trying to subvert democracy racy and punish their sides political enemies… No, I have no fricking problem with Trump revoking a security clearance of any of those douche bags at all. They’re lucky if that’s the worst that happens to them.

F UCK YOU.

Who wants to talk viewpoint discrimination?


Many attorneys and firms representing J6 defendants or challenging the 2020 election were harassed and some disbarred.


Joseph McBride: Represented defendants like Richard Barnett (the "QAnon Shaman"). McBride faced online harassment and was accused of promoting conspiracy theories about J6. He argued on X in 2022 that the criticism was an attempt to "destroy" lawyers defending constitutional rights.

John Pierce: Represented high-profile defendants like Kyle Fitzsimons. Pierce was criticized for his media appearances defending J6 defendants and faced scrutiny over his health and reliability, with some courts questioning his fitness to practice (e.g., a 2021 court hearing where he was reportedly hospitalized).

Sidney Powell: Though more known for election fraud lawsuits, Powell’s brief involvement in J6-related defense work drew intense criticism, including disbarment threats and public shaming. The 65 Project filed complaints against her in 2022, citing her broader role in post-election litigation.

Absolutely. This EO is clearly viewpoint discrimination and a violation of the First Amendment.

I don't know. I wasn't part of the DOJ.

I don't think there was one goal and it changed over time. Clearly the goals were to be negative towards Trump, but there is a huge chasm between that and "overthrowing" Trump.




Beyond hilarious.

Lying about their goals is leftism 101 because their goals are repulsive to normal people.

You included things I never said nor argued. That's the issue.

Y'all are really bad at analogies. The histrionics are consistent. i will give y'all that.


The analogy fits but you do not like it.

quote:

It is painfully obvious that PC acted in bad faith For a campaign? No.


So it is legal to make up anything and not be accountable for it?

quote:

The problem is that y'all are trying to expand their role beyond the campaign, specifically into behavior by the DOJ. That's where your arguments fail.


Well yes, campaigns are under the same scrutiny as anyone else. I mean it is illegal to spread lies that they their selves know is a lie. Hell they created the lie (pc was paid by Clinton and the dnc to have it created. PC sub contracted it out to fusion).

quote:

For effectively representing his campaign opponent? That sounds like textbook viewpoint discrimination.


They not only represented the opponent but they created a false dossier while knowing it was created by their sub-contractor. On top of that they used security clearances to validate the Russia hoax even though they knew that is was all crap. That is not only illegal but reprehensible. Viewpoint discrimination, as the judge ruled is ludicrous, and you know it. The judge had no way of shooting this down other than spot picking points of the argument to fit here narrative. Anyone with an ounce of sincerity knows this. You on the other hand will defend it. I respect your knowledge of the law but consider you scum of the earth to try and legitimize this ridiculous judgement. Finally, screw your strawman and pivoting.

You seem confused.

I always called out Russiagate in real time for years.

However, I'm not a mind-reader and don't know the specific goals of each person involved. What evidence we do have doesn't implicate an attempt to 'overthrow" Trump but rather to oppose him and the art implementation of his policies. Good? No,.but nowhere close to a coup. They could not even impeach him.

In a campaign the 1A gives an incredible amount of leeway.

quote:

Well yes, campaigns are under the same scrutiny as anyone else.

Sure, but there is a lack of causation for the FISA stuff.

The rational scrutiny of PC and all the evidence of any involvement seems to end at the campaign.

quote:

I mean it is illegal to spread lies that they their selves know is a lie. Hell they created the lie (pc was paid by Clinton and the dnc to have it created. PC sub contracted it out to fusion).

Well we can call it a lie, but it's a "lie" like the "50 intelligence agents say Hunter Biden's laptop has all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation" story. Steele had enough plausible deniability for the dossier to protect himself from those specific allegations.

Again, this gets into the division of labor, so to speak. This was NOT an adequate standard for the DOJ to swear to in affidavits for FISA warrants. This just shows the clear distinction in the actions (and potential association/culpability) of the various actors. Perkins Coie would be on the other end of the spectrum from the DOJ actions. All they did was facilitate payment, basically. I don't think the dossier even existed at the time of payment.

quote:

They not only represented the opponent but they created a false dossier

They did not. Christopher Steele did, for Fusion GPS.

quote:

Perkins Coie or the DOJ?

When did Perkins Coie do this, specifically?

They paid fusion and thus Steele. This is where it gets interesting, the results that returned from their sub-contractor were known to be false by PC but still were given to the DNC, Hillary, and the DOJ.

Now trump is revoking their security clearance and they have a judge who has the audacity to use a crap judgement like this. I know the black robe has this right but it does not change the fact that it is laughable.

Well anyone with a pulse knew or knows that was the end goal but as SFP puts it….you have to prove it. The evil bastards are protected by the laws that they created.

Facilitating the money transfer has nothing to do with all the impropriety thereafter. That's the illogical leap y'all keep making here.

quote:

As stated earlier, Steele himself gave the memos/report to the DOJ

And as stated earlier, the DOJ is the actor who truly acted improperly. This argument really argues the DOJ should lose its security clearances, not PC

No need for this tenuous connection when Steele himself was the transferor.

I've been asking for direct evidence of this since page 2 or so and nobody has done anything except make dismissive responses with "Trust me bro" evidence like this one.

We're not even on that standard ITT. We're just talking about logic and basic evidence to support arguments.

Though not the law, common sense is a cornerstone. They worked the system. I do not dislike you SFP but I dislike you not saying “yeah this is obvious as a citizen” but as a lawyer I must say the law disagrees. Most on here like a lawyer like Wednesday that has big time common sense but will also provide why in certain instances the law, as written, will not necessarily coincide with common sense. There seems to be a big disconnect for you on this. Maybe you like it that way…who knows.
