Ah, so interesting. So is it your assessment that the obligation to preserve attaches to the role someone is performing, legitimately or not? Or does it attach to the source of the information ( eg protected fed grand jury testimony)?

I mean, you clearly know otherwise and I’d be super interested in the law or precedent you’re thinking of. I’m just a reader of the news, so I’m 🤷🏼‍♀️

Nothing! It’s just a non-lawyer’s thought experiment.

🚨ALERT: there are 3 ICE / US Park Police vehicles stopped on BW Parkway near Cheverly. Park police can do traffic stops on BW Parkway between Baltimore & DC and are actively collaborating with ICE.

WARNING: Commercial vehicles are not allowed on the parkway & are therefore at higher risk for stops.

I think in her case the accountability is going to be in getting kicked back to being a Trump lawyer, humiliated and probably unemployable in the future.

My gosh that’s sad. What a beautiful girl.

Seems like a good question, but then where would it end? If LH turns out to be illegally appointed, and she sends grand jury info to Bower, and Bower publishes on Lawfare and Bluesky hosts the Lawfare account and I forward said Lawfare post to MY brother—are we all subject to presidential records?

IntrepidGhoulSleuth @annakeesey.bsky.social · 22m

Sure, of course. But if somebody wants to litigate her failure re the records act—which I very much doubt anyone will given the volume of major crimes in this administration—she has this Not-actually-legit US attorney card to play. Esp since everything else she’s done in office would be unwound.

We’re at 7 million. We need to get to 12. And we need to stay there. And call a general strike at the same time.

The American Spring.

Because the presidential records act would apply to actual presidential records, but if she wasn’t a legitimate employee, her comms wouldn’t be subject to it. It just seems an argument she could use in court. But originally I was just joking, anyway, about her likely disappearance from the scene.

He ruined that place.

Non-zero chance of exactly this.

So, it takes about 3.5% of a population to turn the tide of authoritarianism.
We had roughly 2% for #NoKingsDay
We need another approx 5 million more people to join the fight for Democracy.
WHO WILL JOIN US?

*No government has withstood 3.5% actively mobilizing against it in non-violent protests.*

There’s a whole thing about how she was illegally appointed after the temporary/interim 120 days the president gets had expired. In the Comey filing?

IntrepidGhoulSleuth @annakeesey.bsky.social · 13h

I mean she can’t be adjudicated for breaking the records act if her whole tenure as prosecutor was illegitimate? That is, she’ll get kicked to the curb but her criminal stupidities while occupying the job she didn’t really occupy won’t matter? Maybe I’m wrong.

IntrepidGhoulSleuth @annakeesey.bsky.social · 13h

Easy block

IntrepidGhoulSleuth @annakeesey.bsky.social · 13h

Well luckily she’s not actually a legit appointee so she’ll get out of it.

That guy’s look screams I’ll be dead in six months of two or more heinous causes.

Don’t know, let me ask my Washington-state-born husband who is still writhing on the sofa.

IntrepidGhoulSleuth @annakeesey.bsky.social · 14h

Sorry man

IntrepidGhoulSleuth @annakeesey.bsky.social · 14h

Well and as I’ve said elsewhere, he’s going to grift all the money and build it out of cardboard and Rice-a-Roni. So it’ll be an easy tear-down when he’s dead.

IntrepidGhoulSleuth @annakeesey.bsky.social · 15h

I still don’t get the motive though. Why call Bower instead of the NYT reporter?
