Like Pritzker keeps saying, these EOs are designed to try to scare us into being quiet.

It’s important to stay loud for democracy.

I’m not downplaying what ICE and CBP will fee empowered to do now.

I’m not downplaying the real costs of grinding thru a BS charge before the courts toss it.

But it is also important to stress this is just an EO, not a law, bc the media is going to frame it as law.

It.
Is.
Not.

It’s a lot of rhetoric up front, democratically insulting rhetoric to be sure (insulting Christians is the opposite of anti-American, you thin-skinned America-hating theocrats).

But the substance is “we will use the laws we have” bc … that’s all an EO can do.

Prosecutors are balking at charging, to the point Trump 2.0 appointees are choosing to get fired rather than charge.

Even Trump district judges are holding the line, bet they’ll toss bad cases that make it thru.

This is bad—but it’s also designed to intimidate.

This is bad, but also vital to remember: it’s an EO.

It’s not a new law. It’s just instructions to his appointees. Who remain constrained by the Fed criminal code.

And, to preempt the doomers:

Those.
Laws.
Are.
Holding.

That’s why Trump’s losing it over Comey in EDVA.

GOP Rep. Guthrie just proposed a bill that would raise his constituents’ energy bills by $309 and gut the program that’s given $1.7 billion in clean energy investments to his district.

Why? The oil and gas donors who gave $500,000 to his campaign asked for it.

Shame on him.

JUST IN: Judge Xinis says the DOJ has failed to file a privilege log regarding invocation of the state secrets privilege in Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case.

She's giving them until 3pm or will construe it as "intentional refusal" to comply.
