Justices Thomas and Alito have said SCOTUS has no way to duck cases in its “original jurisdiction,” which include cases brought by the United States. And Texas can’t claim sovereign immunity in such a suit. Just sayin. — PolitiTweet.org

The Attorney General needs no special statutory authority to seek an injunction on behalf of the United States. He may sue “by virtue of his office.” Sanitary Dist.of Chicago v. U.S., 266 U.S. 405, 426 (1925) (Holmes, J.). — PolitiTweet.org

The TX abortion ban, SB-8, violates the rights not only of women under Roe v. Wade but of all Texans to “a Republican Form of Government,” Art.IV, Sec 4, which Art.II tells POTUS to “take Care [to] faithfully execut[e].” The U.S. must act decisively to stop SB-8 in its tracks. — PolitiTweet.org

The US has power to seek injunctive relief “to enforce in any part of the land the full and free exercise of all national powers and the security of all rights intrusted by the Constitution to its care.” In re Debs, 158 US 564, 582 (1895) (abusing that power). Texas, watch out! — PolitiTweet.org

The New Math for AG Merrick Garland to use: 18 USC §§ 241 & 242 (KKK Act) + 18 USC §248 (FACE Act)+ 42 USC §§1983 & 1985 (Civil Rights Act) + 28 USC §1651 (All Writs Act) = counter-deterrent to TX SB-8 — PolitiTweet.org

Adding 18 USC 241 & 242 to 18 USC 248 (Federal Access to Clinic Entrances Act) and 28 USC 1651 (All Writs Act) might be worth exploring, though! — PolitiTweet.org

On Sept 6, AG Garland noted that the FACE Act “prohibits intentional property damage of a facility providing reproductive health services.” Too bad driving the facility out of business isn’t included as “property damage.” Maybe it should be! It has the effect of destroying access — PolitiTweet.org

"The department will provide support from federal law enforcement when an abortion clinic or reproductive health center is under attack," Merrick Garland said. To be relevant, that had better include economic as well as physical attack: See SB-8 (bounty hunters)!! — PolitiTweet.org

On the “Jan. 2 call between the White House and Raffensperger’s office, Trump pressured Raffensperger to ‘find 11,780 votes’ that didn’t exist in order to erase Joe Biden’s lead and flip the election results.” That was a federal as well as state crime. GO! https://t.co/VYU30RQcXY — PolitiTweet.org

“Trump’s campaign to steal the 2020 election began shortly after the 2016 election, and arguably the moment of peak peril had already passed by the time Trump addressed the Stop the Steal rally on January 6.” This criminal coup attempt must be prosecuted: https://t.co/raH6TGi24T — PolitiTweet.org

“Hannah Arendt observed the early tendency of a totalitarian regime to draft private citizens to conduct ‘voluntary espionage,’ so that ‘a neighbor gradually becomes a more dangerous enemy than officially appointed police agents.’” That’s SB-8 to a T. https://t.co/XutKwBym83 — PolitiTweet.org

Encouraging but insufficient. Enforcing access to clinics closing down for fear of being financially ruined by the bounty hunters deputized by TX is a band-aid. What's needed is treating the bounty hunters as criminals. https://t.co/MHJTSUazc9 via @TexasTribune — PolitiTweet.org

Lincoln’s Attorney General, Edward Bates, savaged the Supreme Court’s 1857 Dred Scott opinion in ruling a freed Black American to be a US citizen in 1862. Biden’s AG Merrick Garland should show similar courage on the current Court’s trashing of Roe v Wade https://t.co/OBAbk57bjW — PolitiTweet.org

I’m not suggesting suing or prosecuting the lawmakers themselves, just explaining that they committed a major federal crime by passing the rights-crushing scheme they concocted. State sovereign immunity requires that we go after those the TX law deputizes as bounty hunters. — PolitiTweet.org

How this civil disobedience wd occur needs to be explained. Convincing abortion providers and others to ignore the threat posed by the bounty scheme is crucial. Once convinced, they should disobey SB-8 by helping women. Any bounty hunter can then be enjoined before collecting. — PolitiTweet.org

The Justice Department’s first mission was to defy the KKK. It’ll be fitting for Merrick Garland to invoke the KKK Act’s Sections 241 & 242 to protect women from the bounty hunters weaponized by Texas. https://t.co/yhqkAkQ0ev — PolitiTweet.org
