These lawsuits are shocking. Proud Boys are posting publicly with expectation they will have access to the list.

#FAFO. 65% of eligible voters empowered trump/musk/fascism/misogyny/racism/rape/zionism/genocide/homophobia/abuse of power/ignorance/hate, by voting trump or NOT VOTING, (call'em #MAGAts & #MiniMAGAts.) That includes MILLIONS OF FED EMPLOYEES.
If they don't suffer, THEY WILL DO IT AGAIN.

They should turn over the names of EVERY FBI agent. Every single one, not just hose who did as they were assigned.

I just don’t feel like fentanyl trade will go down if we layoff 5000 FBI agents…

I thought the FBI was making some heroic resistance?

Anyone think it will matter if a judge in the FBI’s lawsuit against the DOJ puts a hold on the list, that trump and his scumbags will obey the order?

Without question, Trump and his cabinet believe they’re above the law.

Maybe Merrick Garland should have leaked those reports, huh?

2/ Why does the "Terminations" subject line of Bove's memo strengthen the class action plaintiffs' case?

It helps show there was "no other legitimate agency purpose" for generating the list.

This is probably a dumb question, but if there was no legitimate purpose, then why were the names turned over in the first place?

Probably to see who put real effort into catching insurrectionists and then firing them

Plaintiffs' lawyers are going to save this country. The only effective and appropriate sanction of anyone involved in stop the steal, other than foot soldiers, was the defamation verdict against Giuliani.

Could their inexperience and ignorance actually be their end?

@CNN why does your article not include the fact that all new departments have to be created through and by Congress and they have to be funded by Congress? That the president is a surpassing any legitimate authority has and breaking the law by doing what he has done?
