Reflecting on Juneteenth. CHRIS HURST.

 

David,

As you may know, on Thursday, President Biden signed a bill establishing Juneteenth as a federal holiday to commemorate the end of slavery in the United States.

In April 1865, Confederate soldiers surrendered, but word didn’t reach enslaved people until June 19th, when Union soldiers brought news of freedom to Galveston, Texas.

Today, we recognize the meaning of this important day while also acknowledging the work that needs to be done. We are a long way from true racial justice, and it is our collective responsibility to ensure equal rights in housing, healthcare, employment, and education.

By reckoning with our painful past, we can begin to move this nation forward.

We hope this day serves as a call to action, and we’ll be right by your side in the road towards lasting change.

In Solidarity,

Team Chris Hurst

THIS IS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU HAVE "MORAL" AND "INTELLECTUAL" COWARDS IN THE U.S. SENATE.

 DO  YOU REALLY WONDER WHY TRUMP AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY PURSUE

AN AGENDA OF HATE AND CORRUPTION, AIDING AND SUPPORTING THE POLICIES

OF GOVERNMENTS LIKE PUTINS RUSSIA, AND PROMOTING THE FASCIST IDEOLOGY

OF FAR-RIGHT ORGANIZATIONS IN THE U.S?

HERE IS A REMINDER:

DEJA VU. FROM TODAYS HEADLINES.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) signaled Monday that Republicans, if they win back control of the upper chamber, wouldn't advance a Supreme Court nominee if a vacancy occurred in 2024, the year of the next presidential election. 

"I think it's highly unlikely — in fact, no, I don't think either party, if it were different from the president, would confirm a Supreme Court nominee in the middle of an election," McConnell told radio host Hugh Hewitt.

TREASON AND VIOLATING CONSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLES IS NOW PART OF THE GOPS GAMEPLAN IN TURNING THE U.S. INTO A FASCIST UTOPIA, WHERE;

- XENOPHOBES

- HOMOPHOBES

- RELIGIOUS FANATICS

- ANTI-INTELLECTUALISTS

- SCIENCE DENIERS

- RACISTS

etc... CONTROL AND SHAPE EVERY ASPECT OF AMERICAN LIFE.

NOW THE TRUMPS AND MCCONNELLS OF THIS WORLD ARE VILE AND CONTEMPTIBLE "HUMAN" BEINGS WHO WOULD SELL OUT ANYONE, AT ANY TIME, IF IT WOULD BENEFIT THEIR CONTROLLERS.

THESE WOULD INCLUDE:

- AMERICAN FASCIST ORG. AND GROUPS.

- VLADMIR PUTIN AND THE RUSSIAN GRU.

- INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS PREACHING AND

 PROMOTING "BOGUS" AND "FALSE" CAPITALIST DOGMA.

HOWEVER, WOULDN'T A CAPABLE AND DETERMINED OPPOSITION PARTY BE ABLE TO STOP THEM? IDEALLY, YES...

...BUT THEY WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE TO CARE ENOUGH TO DO SOME  WORK.

HERE ARE SOME ARTICLES, POSTED OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, THAT SHOULD REMIND YOU OF THAT "DEDICATION" DISPLAYED BY SENATE DEMOCRATS, WHEN IT COMES TO PROTECTING THE PRESIDENTS ABILITY TO PICK AND CHOOSE A NOMINEE FOR THE SUPREME COURT, AND THE SENATES RESPONSIBILITY IN EVALUATING THAT CHOICE.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON 3/13/2021: ABUSE OF PROCESS AND MALICIOUS PROSECUTION. (APPLYING THIS TO THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION)

Why the Democrats and other Progressive Groups are not using this Law(s) to confront and combat the erroneous and baseless claims made by the GOP about the 2020 Election results baffles me. (Considering the fact that, according to the evidence, the only candidate who benefitted from Bogus election results in 2016 and 2020 was Donald Trump.)

ABUSE OF PROCESS AND MALICIOUS PROSECUTION. (APPLYING THIS TO THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION)

TAKEN FROM WIKIPEDIA. ( JUST FOR REFERENCE PURPOSES). I'VE OUTLINED CERTAIN KEY POINTS.- DAVID.

An abuse of process is the unjustified or unreasonable use of legal proceedings or process to further a cause of action by an applicant or plaintiff in an action. It is a claim made by the respondent or defendant that the other party is misusing or perverting regularly issued court process (civil or criminal) not justified by the underlying legal action. In common law it is classified as an intentional tort. It is to be distinguished from malicious prosecution, another type of tort that involves misuse of the public right of access to the courts.

The elements of a valid cause of action for abuse of process in most common law jurisdictions are as follows: (1) the existence of an ulterior purpose or motive underlying the use of process, and (2) some act in the use of the legal process not proper in the regular prosecution of the proceedings.[1] Abuse of process can be distinguished from malicious prosecution, in that abuse of process typically does not require proof of malice, lack of probable cause in procuring issuance of the process, or a termination favorable to the plaintiff, all of which are essential to a claim of malicious prosecution.[2] "Process," as used in this context, includes not only the "service of process," i.e. an official summons or other notice issued from a court, but means any method used to acquire jurisdiction over a person or specific property that is issued under the official seal of a court.[3] Typically, the person who abuses process is interested only in accomplishing some improper purpose that is collateral to the proper object of the process and that offends justice, such as an unjustified arrest or an unfounded criminal prosecution. Subpoenas to testify, attachments of property, executions on property, garnishments, and other provisional remedies are among the types of "process" considered to be capable of abuse.

Malicious prosecution is a common law intentional tort. Like the tort of abuse of process, its elements include (1) intentionally (and maliciously) instituting and pursuing (or causing to be instituted or pursued) a legal action (civil or criminal) that is (2) brought without probable cause and (3) dismissed in favor of the victim of the malicious prosecution. In some jurisdictions, the term "malicious prosecution" denotes the wrongful initiation of criminal proceedings, while the term "malicious use of process" denotes the wrongful initiation of civil proceedings.

Criminal prosecuting attorneys and judges are protected from tort liability for malicious prosecution by doctrines of prosecutorial immunity and judicial immunity. Moreover, the mere filing of a complaint cannot constitute an abuse of process. The parties who have abused or misused the process have gone beyond merely filing a lawsuit. The taking of an appeal, even a frivolous one, is not enough to constitute an abuse of process. The mere filing or maintenance of a lawsuit, even for an improper purpose, is not a proper basis for an abuse of process action.

Declining to expand the tort of malicious prosecution, a unanimous California Supreme Court in the case of Sheldon Appel Co. v. Albert & Oliker, 47 Cal. 3d 863, 873 (1989) observed: "While the filing of frivolous lawsuits is certainly improper and cannot in any way be condoned, in our view the better means of addressing the problem of unjustified litigation is through the adoption of measures facilitating the speedy resolution of the initial lawsuit and authorizing the imposition of sanctions for frivolous or delaying conduct within that first action itself, rather than through an expansion of the opportunities for initiating one or more additional rounds of malicious prosecution litigation after the first action has been concluded."[1]

Trump's Department of Justice. U.S. REP. ADAM SCHIFF.

 David —

Throughout much of his presidency, Donald Trump attacked me constantly — literally hundreds of times on Twitter, in interviews, even during meetings with foreign heads of state.

He accused me of treason, said I should be investigated, and that someone needed to “do something” about me.

I always wondered whether his constant badgering of his Attorneys General to go after me would cause them to do so. I never imagined I would need to be concerned about such things in this country — that was the stuff of petty dictatorships, not the United States of America.

But last month, I learned that Trump’s Justice Department secretly subpoenaed records from Apple that pertained to me, one of my colleagues on the Intelligence Committee, members of my staff, and family members, even a minor child. Then they got a gag order so that we would not know. This is unprecedented.

Already, the Department has agreed to an Inspector General investigation into what appears to have been a partisan effort to go after vocal critics of the president and using the Justice Department to do so.

It is shocking and appalling, and yet, not at all surprising.

For years, first Jeff Sessions and then Bill Barr badly politicized the Department, to the point where the former president could call for his allies, like Roger Stone and Mike Flynn, to have their sentences reduced or their cases dismissed entirely, and the Justice Department would do so. He also wanted to use the Department to go after his perceived political enemies.

The harm Trump did to the Justice Department, where I served with pride for six years, will last more than a decade. We must do a full assessment of the damage, and develop stronger guardrails to protect the Department’s independence in the future.

But this week’s revelations also remind me just how grateful I am to you. For your support. For your faith. And for your help during those terrible four years and since.

Thank you for always having my back, and standing with me.

Adam
