Yes, but the “beyond-a-reasonable-doubt” standard (a) applies only to the trial, not the decision to charge; and (b) can take common sense into account — especially when huge crimes against the rule of law and democracy itself are brazenly committed in plain view of the nation — PolitiTweet.org

“Noting that states can be sued for civil rights violations and certain property claims over their objection, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said it would be ‘bizarre’ if they couldn’t also be sued under the federal government’s so-called war powers.” I agree. https://t.co/UfkFP1Zvd6 — PolitiTweet.org

Ecuador’s highest court has ruled that wild animals must be protected against ‘disproportionate cruelty, fear and distress.’” This should help our case on behalf of Happy the Elephant in NY state court. https://t.co/MaX3N1Sygw — PolitiTweet.org

It’s hard to think of a single positive thing to say about Senator Rand Paul. Right up there with Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz, Tom Cotton, and Lindsay Graham. Five peas in a rotten pod as far as I can tell. https://t.co/cQf18q7sB2 — PolitiTweet.org

I’m glad the Biden Administration’s FY 23 DOJ budget request includes funding for the newly re-established Office for Access to Justice that I launched during the Obama Administration but that the Trump Administration shut down. https://t.co/rvo4fXEQSw — PolitiTweet.org

The US Constitution might not do much for animal welfare, but it leaves states free to protect animals with laws that don’t discriminate against other states but just impose facially neutral requirements for humane treatment of our fellow creatures — PolitiTweet.org

In the “first formal finding of presidential criminality by a federal court in United States history.” Judge Carter wrote that, if the Eastman/Trump “plan had worked, it would have permanently ended the peaceful transition of power.” https://t.co/icPZCKQFCR — PolitiTweet.org

“Dr. Eastman and President Trump launched a campaign to overturn a democratic election, an action unprecedented in American history. Their campaign was not confined to the ivory tower—it was a coup in search of a legal theory.” — Federal Judge David O. Carter, CD Calif (3/28/22) — PolitiTweet.org

Josh Hawley absurdly calls demands for Justice Thomas to recuse from cases in which his wife played a direct role “kind of misogynistic.” That’s really rich coming as it does from the guy who charged Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson with coddling pedophiles! https://t.co/YOxdsNT5IK — PolitiTweet.org

The “gap in President Donald Trump’s phone logs of seven hours and 37 minutes, including the period when the [Capitol] was being violently assaulted” makes the infamous 18-minute gap in Nixon’s tapes look like nothing in comparison https://t.co/5IeZNbdjd6 — PolitiTweet.org

History will vindicate what some are mistakenly calling Biden’s “gaffe” much as it vindicated Reagan’s speech calling the USSR an “evil empire” that’d end up on the “ash-heap of history.” https://t.co/iFIKhi5Pjz — PolitiTweet.org

“Even if a state’s requirements have significant upstream effects outside of the state, and even if the burden of the law falls primarily on citizens of other states, the requirements do not impose impermissible extraterritorial effects.” Exactly. https://t.co/iOMeSMXzmP — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s why I’m wasting no time on the sicko slap episode at the Academy Awards. Even the Ginny & Clarence show is far more consequential. And that show is way less significant than Putin’s war crimes, Trump’s threat to return to power, or the right-wing SCOTUS majority’s rise — PolitiTweet.org

In a well-functioning government, the role of Senator Cruz in working arm in arm with John Eastman to help Donald Trump seize power in a bloodless coup would be under DOJ investigation and wouldn’t be left to the toothless 1/6 select committee to explore. https://t.co/qzql75KMEk — PolitiTweet.org

Calling Carlson and Gabbard traitors is tempting but wrong conceptually and foolish politically. It’s also incorrect legally. I slipped into that error not long ago before correcting myself almost instantly. Check Art. III’s narrow definition of treason. https://t.co/habwEPmm8N — PolitiTweet.org
