Over the weekend:
1. Biden supporters attacked and harassed Trump supporters in Washington DC;
2. Obama, as reported on Breitbart, announced that Trump was like a Dictator- which is rich coming from a man who weaponised departments of state for political reasons; whose excessive use Executives Orders- the famous "I have a pen and phone" is well-known and whose second term denigrated Americans who did not think like him and brought into play divisive identity politics.
What type of regime denigrates political and legal due process; does not like dissent from its totalitarian opinion and uses the mob- and violent thugs- in an extrajudicial fashion, and cuts off legal representation? Typically an authoritarian one. Some may call it a fascist regime.
Professor Turley of the Law Faculty of George Washington University writes about the harassment of the law firms that Mr Trump has engaged for his quest against voter fraud and the issues surrounding Dominion vote machines and the software.
What is astonishing is the fat that lawyers are leading he harassment. Jonathan Turley says "I have never seen such a campaign led by lawyers against lawyers." Lest we forget the officer class of the Nazi SS had a great number of lawyers.
Less than a week after the election being called for President-elect [sic] Biden, supporters are turning to Shakespeare’s “Henry VI” for their first priority: “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.”
The rule of law and a basic tenant of a civil society is the right of access to justice- questionable in some Courts in the USA as Lt Gen Flynn has found out- and the right to Justice has its "must have" the right to Legal Counsel.
I urge you to please do read Professor Turley's article and lament the crumbling of the American Republic https://jonathanturley.org/202...
