More on the Trump administration efforts to bypass appeals courts

Here’s a new example of their shady practices.

1/2 Trump, represented by DOJ in the emoluments case, has taken the very unusual step of asking the 4th Circuit to reverse the trial judge’s decision at a very early stage in the case, where an appeal is not usually available. The standard is very high. https://t.co/tJkdo3R1ZS

They want to go right to the Supreme Court with their two new Trump-appointed conservative justices.

Don’t forget about Willie Horton

George H. W. Bush was better than any Republican president since him and I admire his service to the country Still, we can’t forget about this.

My friend Bob Herbert once called him George H.W. (Willie Horton) Bush. That ad was "nigger nigger" by another name, in the words of the infamous Lee Atwater. https://t.co/5hk4L2dXjC pic.twitter.com/Q5JoaeOEQU

— Brent Staples (@BrentNYT) December 1, 2018

The Horton ad "was a central part of a presidential campaign that focused on the fear of crime and argued, relentlessly, that 'revolving door' sentencing and prison policies were to blame for the problem."

Grassley is wrong about Obama

Obama didn’t attack Alito, he criticized the Citizens United decision (and was right to do so since it brought lots of outside money into politics).

Also: Obama was right, Alito was wrong. And Grassley should retire https://t.co/oxt87A2iWo

Obama didn’t rebuke Alito, Senator. Your memory is faulty. Which might explain why you can’t recall Roberts’ response. https://t.co/kGeNOqzve1 https://t.co/FnZXd65vSK

I am seeing that many people believe this happened – who knows how many more after amplified by conservative media -yet it's literally the opposite of what happened. Obama criticized nobody by name. It was Justice Alito who visibly mouthed the words, "Not true." https://t.co/3uNwaQg9JH

The Supreme Court is protecting Ross

The court decided that Wilbur Ross did not have to give a deposition about his statements about the 2020 Census (which I think are lies). They’re protecting Trump.

Wilbur Ross repeatedly lied to Congress about why he added citizenship question to Census but SCOTUS is shielding him from answering questions in deposition under oath https://t.co/13Lax6KdPa

The courts forced Hillary Clinton to release every single email she wrote as Secretary of States, but won't make Wilbur Ross undergo a single deposition about the 2020 census. I guess there's a reason for this, but jeez.

— Kevin Drum (@kdrum) October 23, 2018

I cannot think of a good reason why the Supreme Court would block Wilbur Ross, who lied to Congress about the illegitimate citizenship question he wants to put on the census form to suppress the role of minorities, from submitting to a deposition. This is highly suspicious.

The Kavanaugh investigation was incomplete so Democrats will do it properly if they win the House

The Kavanaugh investigation was a sham – it was very limited. If Democrats win the House, they will conduct a real investigation. It would have been much better to have a full investigation before the vote but Republicans chose not to do that. I don’t think they helped Kavanaugh by shoving the nomination through before a thorough investigation. Dr. Ford and the other accusers deserve a full hearing. The majority of people favor it. The FBI ignored many witnesses. No matter what it finds, I don’t think the investigation would lead to Kavanaugh’s impeachment. Republicans will keep him in his seat no matter what they find.

JUST IN: 53% of Americans favor further investigation of Brett Kavanaugh by Congress that could potentially lead to efforts to remove him from office; women support a congressional probe, 58-37%. https://t.co/JTelwBFViy pic.twitter.com/o6MvDVgOpV

So WH had to have specifically ordered FBI: do not accept information from citizens who come forward and volunteer it. Can't imagine the FBI has been told that before. That is politics, of the most base and dishonest sort, not law enforcement. https://t.co/rEzFRSNzq6

Any lawyer knows coordinating eyewitness accounts could constitute witness tampering. We don't know what Judge Kavanaugh said in the days before the New Yorker story broke, but it sure seems like something the FBI should've investigated, & may explain misleading testimony.

— Richard Blumenthal (@SenBlumenthal) October 4, 2018

One of my constituents went to the FBI with evidence that Judge Kavanaugh was in touch with the wife of an alleged eye witness regarding Ms. Ramirez’s allegations of sexual misconduct before the New Yorker story broke. The FBI never called her back.
