24/ The CA case might provide an opportunity to rein in these tactics more broadly, to make clear that these kinds of coercive tactics are improper and invalid.
Show Post23/ Fortunately, most of our nation's election officials are standing strong against these strong-arm tactics, focused on doing their jobs and following the law. But they shouldn't have to face these kinds of coercive and unlawful tactics. www.cbsnews.com/news/electio...
Show Post22/ And, as we have seen, the threat of improper exercises of federal power might cause some people to comply with even unlawful demands.
Show Post21/ The danger isn't that courts will accept this kind of aggrandizement of executive power--that is way too out of line to be a serious risk. The danger is the exercise of law enforcement power in the first place--to threaten, to investigate, to upend lives & institutions before courts step in.
Show Post20/ Criminal statutes do not silently give DOJ sweeping authority to impose whatever regulations they want under a theory that they are seeking to prevent the crimes from occurring. This kind of bootstrapping argument is potentially unlimited and tyrannical.
