RE: https://mastodon.social/@heidilifeldman/117531934897745251 About an hour ago, the judge in this suit granted plaintiffs’ motion for a TRO to prevent the Trump DOJ from continuing to threaten poll workers and election administrators with unfounded criminal prosecution. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cand.482447/gov.uscourts.cand.482447.26.0.pdf #LawFedi 1/

RE: https://mastodon.social/@heidilifeldman/117531919080199006 Literally, as I wrote this thread, the Trump regime moved for ballot segregation in Alaska. https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/in-new-escalation-doj-wants-to-force-Alaskan-to-segregate-ballots-in-senate-race/ This maneuver is part and parcel of of the coordinated election interference explained in the thread.

Pro-democracy plaintiffs keep filing lawsuits to keep up with Trump regime’s ongoing election interference. I don’t see any legacy media reporting comprehensively on the daily encroachments by the regime or pro-democracy plaintiffs’ efforts to block them. There’s a massively important news story here that is getting covered only piecemeal. 1/ #LawFedi

Just in: Judge Ana Reyes will be formally investigating whether Trump DoJ has been lying to the Court, a prelude to holding DoJ lawyers in contempt or filing misconduct charges with appropriate state bar associations. This is how lawyers lose their right to practice in federal court or even their licenses to practice law at all. https://www.bloomberglaw.com/product/blaw/bloomberglawnews/us-law-week/BNA%20000001a1-8daf-d32b-a1bd-ddefdd9b0001 (story paywalled, screenshot below) #LawFedi
