Hi hello yes
Dreeben: We're not trying to impose criminal liability for threatening to remove Rosen. We're trying to impose criminal liability for fraud to get DOJ to send out fraudulent letters.
While Dreeben and Kagan are going back and forth over official acts vs unofficial acts on Jan 6 - A reminder from what an attorney repping lawmakers and police suing Trump told me in recent weeks:

To hold otherwise would make a mockery out of the “plain statement” rule.
That question is simply whether a former President of the United States may be prosecuted for attempting to remain in power notwithstanding the election of his successor by the American People.
Justice Alito suggests that, if former presidents are subject to prosecution after leaving office, they'll be more likely to seek to unlawfully remain in office after they were defeated for re-election/their term has ended. JFC.
@Brandi_Buchman The male majority on SCOTUS wondered out loud that bad faith grand juries are more of a threat than insurrections.
Dreeben: We're not trying to impose criminal liability for threatening to remove Rosen. We're trying to impose criminal liability for fraud to get DOJ to send out fraudulent letters.
Here's a question Alito should be asked today: If a female President got an abortion during her term, could Idaho arrest her?
Note: It turned out that Trump got named an unindicted co-conspirator in TWO state-level crimes yesterday (the other being AZ, where Boris and Bobb got their first criminal charges). Which is about par for how his week is going.
NEWS: Michigan prosecutors consider former President Donald Trump and some of his top aides co-conspirators in the plot to submit a certificate falsely claiming he won Michigan's 2020 election. detroitnews.com/story/news/pol…
I’ll be on WUSA9 today talking SCOTUS oral arguments in the Trump immunity case with @MattGregoryNews. Watch at 12:30.
@Brandi_Buchman When Roe v. Wade became law, I was 15. My aunt died at 18 because of an illegal abortion. Her death changed the course of my mother’s life as she was just 13 when her sister passed. The local catholic church was wicked in their response and shamed the family. I am so f’ing angry
As Israel's Netanyahu hysterically calls US campuses "horrific..German[y] in the 1930s", remember who took him to power: the divisive US operative Arthur Finkelstein, who also gave us autocrat Viktor Orban, antisemitic conspiracy theories, and indirectly, Donald Trump. 1/
Today saw three red flags: Bibi's speech, and visits to Columbia by Mike Johnson (J6 organizer) and Gavin McInnes (Proud Boys founder). As in 2020, protests can be used to stoke fear and violence. The only way to fight back is with sanity and calm. 8/ x.com/scootercastern…
SPOTTED: Gavin McInnes, the found of the 'Proud Boys' and co-founder of VICE, spotted at the Columbia University Encampment Protest. Video by @yyeeaahhhboiii2 [email protected] to license
This account focuses on Jan 6 - but J6 is Finkelstein's legacy too. Roger Stone's Proud Boys led the attack. ESI, who'd worked with Paul Manafort, ran the rallies. And the QAnon conspiracies that inflamed the rioters were pushed by a staffer of Ron Paul - Terry Dolan's client. 7/
Manafort had learned in Ukraine how to create violent, astroturfed protests, whose players looked enough like normal folks they stymied law enforcement. In 2006, he shut down the US Marines and NATO. On Jan 6 the Capitol attack used the same gameplan. 4/ taskandpurpose.com/news/manafort-…
It was Finkelstein who pushed Trump to hire Paul Manafort, deep in Ukraine fuckery in 2016 and formerly in business with Finkelstein protege Roger Stone. Trump's campaign used Finkelstein's tactics: polarize the electorate, make people fear each other. As Bibi is doing now. 3/
