Disrespect for the law is spreading from #TFG & MOC to state legislators. Many Republicans now believe #J6 insurrectionists are pol prisoners & that LE officers who don't support TFG, shouldn't be respected.

On Wed, several Republicans in the PA House walked out of the chamber when 2 US CAP officers were being honored.

The officers honored were Sgts. H Dunn & A Gonell. Both defended the Capitol bldg on J6. St Rep Kenyatta reported some Rs booing & hissing.

R leaders are fascist & lawless:

“I do technically have a primary." -AG Knudsen -when asked who was running agst him. “However, he's a young man who I asked to run against me bc our campaign laws are ridiculous.”

He faces dozens of professional misconduct allegations.

In 2021: ordered Lewis & Clark Co ATTY to dismiss concealed carry weapons charges agst a man who allegedly threatened a restaurant mgr trying to enforce MT's Covid mask mandate.

Republicans believe they're above the law, & for many, it's true, e.g.:

"Conservative activist Leonard Leo said on Thurs that he will not comply with a subpoena from the SJC, which is investigating undisclosed travel & gifts to SCJs Clarence Thomas & Samuel Alito.

The Dems would have to hold a full Senate vote to enforce the subpoena & are unlikely to be successful. Durbin said he sent the subpoena bc Leo has refused to cooperate with the CMTE’s inquiry."

Brazen lawlessness:

Electing #TFG would irretrievably mar our constitutional system. His support of #J6 criminals should demolish the notion that TFG & MAGA followers “stand with the blue” or rep. the “law & order” party. Facing trial himself for: J6, he wants to let out of jail the foot soldiers he enlisted to attack democracy.

It should still sicken Americans that someone running for chief exec. continues to embrace lawbreaking & promises to reward it.

GOP pol leaders don't respect for the law & Const:

"N Dist. of TX -area Rs have been accused of filing lawsuits to judge shop -said: will not follow a new advisory rule about random case assignment.

Fed judges in N TX say they plan to ignore a new advisory rule meant to crack down on “judge shopping” or the practice of filing lawsuits in places where ATTYs are likely to get a fav. ruling."

Sen Cornyn/other top Reps urged judges not to comply with the rule. #LawlessGOP https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/north-texas-federal-judges-say-theyll-ignore-new-rule-aimed-at-curbing-judge-shopping/ar-BB1kXBg4?ocid=socialshare

Louisiana may rewrite their const. Majority of leg: Rs -they'll abuse their power...

Legislators & Gov Landry’s handpicked delegates would meet b/w May 20-July 15 to rewrite LA's Const.

Abuse of power, but the DOJ does little to restrain it:

"The KY Senate sent a bill to Gov Beshear Thurs that'd strip him of his power to appoint people to the US Senate.

The bill seeks to hold special elections for Senate vacancies in KY. The legislation's passage thru the state senate follows the late Feb announcement that its own Sen McConnell would step down from his position as Senate Minority Leader at the end of the year-."

Lawlessness is approved by the SC, so now Texas Gov Abbott's Operation Lone Star's LE officers can apprehend anyone they believe might be undocumented.

Can the DOJ intervene?

"SC allows TX’s SB 4 to go into effect, allowing state criminal enforcement of a state IMG law. The majority gives no reasoning; Barrett, joined by Kavanaugh, gives an embarrassingly absurd *this is just an admin. stay* concurrence; Sotomayor, joined by Jackson, is extremely unhappy in their-." @chrisgeidner

#LawlessGOP senators & judges:

McConnell sent a letter to the CJ of every dist. court in the country, co-signed by Sens. Cornyn & Tillis, encouraging them to disregard the policy, basically saying it’s illegal. Rs are telling courts to defy the SC CJ & his ult. authority as head of the entire Article III judiciary. We might see an intra-war branch -b/w judges who accept the policy & -don’t. Roberts is going to get a lot of hate mail from his colleagues on the lower c-.

LAWLESS Rs:

As of Dec 2023, the FEC has received 59 allegations that TFG or his CMTEs violated the FEC Act. In 29 of those cases, nonpartisan staff in the FEC’s OGC recommended the FEC investigate TFG. Not once has an R FEC COM voted to approve any such investig. or enforcement of the law agst him. Bc at least 4 of the 6 FEC COMs need to approve any FEC investigation +only 3 of those seats can be filled by Dems, Rs hold a veto over the agency’s enforcement.

"He comes at the invitation of Congress. Rs are in control of the HSE. There's no reason that we need to invite him" -Rep Perry wants HSE Rs TO CXL SOTU."
-A Rupar

Rs' aim: destroy Biden, Dems, the USG +norms, rules, laws... #LawlessGOP #GOPFascism

"This continues GOP delegitimation of Biden, our actual Pres., so that the mass deception that Trump is the real head of state can be upheld. & the less Biden is seen the more any coup plans (coup broadly defined) can gather momentum."

HSE Republicans dismiss rules bc they're lawless. #TFG: perfect president bc he's not only lawless, he's a mob boss.

"Rare weaponizing a boring House tradition. The result is more paralysis.

GOP rebels are tanking "rules" to push demands, forcing a super-majority threshold for bills.

It's creating a "de facto filibuster," turning HSE into the Sen." -S Kapur

HSE: so inept at moving leg. thru the normal process - starting to look like a more rowdy Sen-.

Update: Governors from these redstates are aiding Gov Abbott's unconstitutional effort to defend the Southern Border with "his NG":

Pres Biden must act now, & AG Garland has been silent. Some experts are calling for Biden to federalize the NG in Texas.

Governors from 25 states jointly support Texas in its order dispute (treason) with the fed govt, with some sending NG units *VT: lone exception.

#TFG calls for the governors to send troops to TX.

"Fake Crimes", that's more or less how many Republican leaders describe the 91 criminal counts against #TFG. Their talking points come from the Federalist Society & other conservative think tanks & organizations. Some GOP leaders say TFG's crimes are pardonable too:

"Are we concerned that Federalist Society co-founder Steven Calabresi dismisses all the federal charges against Trump as "Fake Crimes"? -Mark Stern
