ALERT: NAACP has filed for an emergency restraining order in DC federal court to block federal law enforcement agents from serving as federal “election monitors"

What if a federal agent walks into a polling place and demands the ballots?

I'll be writing more about this later, but the fact that there are no ICE (or other armed) federal agents at the polls and no federal takeover of elections is not because we are "lucky" or our system is "strong:" it took a ton of hard work from lawyers, election administrators and civil society.

Sending a target letter to @marcelias.bsky.social is a total “I’m not locked in here with you, you’re locked in here with me” moment for the DOJ. :)

FAFO, federal fucksticks.
The DOJ sent TARGET LETTERS to @marcelias.bsky.social and others in a huge escalation of the Alaska squabbling. Such letters by DOJ practice and regulation only go to people whom they intend to indict. Elias is Mary Peltola's lawyer. A stunning move that is likely to backfire badly.
