"These cases should go on until the plug is pulled by Trump so he has to take the hit of stopping the prosecutions against him.

That is so spot on.

This irrelevant, longstanding OLC policy is against Public Policy.

No thanks to Richard Nixon.

Such an honor to speak to Prof. Tribe for his most extensive discussion since the election. Watch the full interview, from his thoughts on Trump's constitutional disqualification from taking the oath of office, to Merchan's sentencing, Jack Smith, Merrick Garland & more, here: https://youtu.be/uJdvwguteE8

I agree. It’s tough. Hate to be fired by Trump. But then it’s on record that he had to do it.

excellent, excellent interview with professor tribe. i really appreciate professor tribe and judge luttig speaking out throughout the last several years, teaching us about constitutional law and the specific dangers that 🍊 possesses. his pointed comments towards merrick garland...eye opener

thebluenami.bsky.social•108 days ago

and please keep these great interviews coming! i'm an atheist...but we're all going to need a healthy dose of prayer to get through this next cycle (however long it lasts) 💙💙💙

Jessica - I have an idea about something we can do right now to make sure they know we are not just obeying I do not want to post it here but I think you would be able to tell us if it is even possible

d5frickel.bsky.social•109 days ago

Agree.

I think there should be a brainstorming session with you, the folks from Medias Touch, Brian Tyler Cohen, David Pakman, Adam Mockler, Harry Sisson, Keith Edwards and non media types who care deeply, like me. Zoom? We need a path forward. Let's all get talking.

Ask professor Tribe why we must let the megalomaniac into office he is already violating and has violated the constitution. If he can do that and still gain office. His entire Party have and are violating the constitution right now. Why we must still follow the rule of law! What is the rule of law?

Congress needs to 14th amendment him before or on Jan 6! How do we get this done?

biggestrascal.bsky.social•109 days ago

That’s what my comment was to provoke. Let’s keep asking said questions? You know I think we should ask that question of Lawrence tribe! It’s time someone gives us a real answer to why Trump is Evan allowed his oath when we know he has every intention to violate his oath

Americas justice system failed America. SCULTUS failed America.

mypolitics.bsky.social•109 days ago

My thoughts exactly. Follow through as anyone else would have done and then force his lawyers to go though all the legal channels available to them.

waterblusky.bsky.social•109 days ago

Thank You!

Do not obey in advance.

snaketshirts.bsky.social•109 days ago

It’s that whole ‘obeying in advance’. Pretty sure Garland said they’d keep going until January 6th regardless. What utter wimps to not bring it to conclusion. Where is the consequences???

dashannestokes.bsky.social•108 days ago

Is it possible that by closing early that they are able to protect the case to be re-opened and prosecuted later after Trump is out of office?
