$100 million lawsuit involving top Trump campaign strategist before possible Supreme Court pick

Trump appointee Barbara Lagoa reportedly appeared "friendlier" to campaign strategist Jason Miller in a court case

A AFlorida judge (https://www.salon.com/2020/07/17/supreme-court-upholds-floridas-pay-to-vote-scheme-for-ex-felons_partner/) rumored to be on short list of nominees to fill the Supreme Court (https://www.salon.com/topic/supreme_court) seat left vacant by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death (https://www.salon.com/2020/09/18/supreme-court-justice-ruth-bader-ginsburg-dies-at-87/) is currently hearing

a $100 million lawsuit (https://www.salon.com/2019/12/26/former-trump-spokeswoman-was-punished-after-top-aide-got-her-pregnant-lawsuit-claims/) from one of President Donald Trump (https://www.salon.com/topic/donald_trump)'s top campaign strategists (https://www.salon.com/2020/09/01/trump-campaign-aide-was-paid-20000-a-month-by-bannon-nonprofit-linked-to-alleged-fraud/).

Judge Barbara Lagoa was appointed to Florida's 11th Circuit Court of Appeals less than one year ago (https://twitter.com/CraigCaplan/status/1303804979740803073) by Trump.

She is one of two Trump appointees on a three-judge panel which will decide whether the effort by the president's senior campaign strategist Jason Miller (https://www.salon.com/topic/jason_miller) to revive a $100 million defamation suit against Gizmodo (https://www.salon.com/2019/12/26/former-trump-spokeswoman-was-punished-after-top-aide-got-her-pregnant-lawsuit-claims/) may advance.

The two Trump-appointed judges on the panel — Lagoa and Andrew Brasher — "seemed friendlier to Miller's case,"

For a Supreme Court nominee,

Lagoa's judicial experience would be thin by historical standards.

Lagoa has about nine months of experience (https://twitter.com/CraigCaplan/status/1303804979740803073%20November) on the federal bench, and

she previously served for less than one year (https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/article237506884.html) on Florida's Supreme Court.

Lagoa is also currently ruling on a challenge to a Florida law (https://www.facingsouth.org/2020/07/trumps-judges-will-rule-florida-poll-tax-despite-perceived-conflict-interest) requiring anyone with a serious criminal conviction to pay all fines and legal obligations before they can vote. Florida is a key swing state in the 2020 elections.

Lagoa's potential conflicts of interest in that case may go beyond her connection to Trump.

During her short stint on Florida's Supreme Court, the judge ruled to reverse a decision invalidating the felon voting law.

She argues that the federal case is different from the state-level case, which some see (https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/07/11th-circuit-florida-fines-fees-judicial-ethics.html) as a gray area when it comes to recusal.

https://www.salon.com/2020/09/21/100-million-lawsuit-involving-top-trump-campaign-strategist-before-possible-supreme-court-pick/

So Trash's corrupt politicized judges are to rule on a case about one of Trash's officials, and whether FL felons can vote.

What history should I check? The Dakotas were admitted as two states because Republicans wanted to stack the senate and wouldn't go along with admitting Dakota as one state.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakota_Territory


Admission of new western states was a party political battleground with each party looking at how the proposed new states were likely to vote. At the beginning of 1888, the Democrats under president Grover Cleveland proposed that the four territories of Montana, New Mexico, Dakota and Washington should be admitted together. The first two were expected to vote Democratic and the latter two were expected to vote Republican so this was seen as a compromise acceptable to both parties. However, the Republicans won majorities in both the House and the Senate later that year. To head off the possibility that Congress might only admit Republican territories to statehood, the Democrats agreed to a less favorable deal in which Dakota was divided in two and New Mexico was left out altogether. Cleveland signed it into law on February 22, 1889, and the territories could become states in nine months time after that.

[CosmicCowboy]

What history should I check? The Dakotas were admitted as two states because Republicans wanted to stack the senate and wouldn't go along with admitting Dakota as one state.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakota_Territory

wikipedia :lol Did you write it?

The Dakota Territory was formed in 1861—including what we now think of as North Dakota and South Dakota, as well as parts of Wyoming and Montana—and took on the boundaries of the two Dakotas in 1868. It was entirely expected that such territories would eventually join the U.S. as states after meeting certain requirements, like hitting a population count of more than 60,000 and drafting a state constitution.

So why did the two halves of the territory reach statehood separately?

Steven Bucklin, a professor of history at the University of South Dakota, points to regional differences in trade routes and population size as the two main factors. Those differences, with the addition of some territorial government politics, meant the populations felt some resentment for each other. Or, as Kimberly Porter, a history professor at the University of North Dakota, puts it, “the south half did not like the north half.”

(While we’re going to focus on why there are two Dakotas, it’s worth noting that they’re not the only states to share a name—the Carolinas separated in the first half of the 18th century, and West Virginia split from Virginia during the civil war because delegates from the western part of the state opposed secession.)

In terms of population size, the two parts of the territory were different from the beginning. There were always more people in the southern part of Dakota territory, which grew from about 10,000 in 1870 to about over 98,000 in 1880. By that point, according to the U.S. census, northern Dakota was home to only about 37,000 people. That meant that southern Dakota had the population necessary to join as a state, all on its own, years before the northern part of the state did.

Perhaps not coincidentally, there was also a bit of a personality difference between the two regions: the south thought the north was a bit disreputable, Porter says, “too much controlled by the wild folks, cattle ranchers, fur traders” and too frequently the site of conflict with the indigenous population.

Meanwhile, a year after the Dakota territory was formed, the Homestead Act passed. This new law encouraged settlement in the West, as did railroads that connected new farmers to markets for their crops. But the trade routes supported by these railroads connected North and South Dakota to different commercial hubs, says Bucklin. The northern part of Dakota territory became more closely tied to Minneapolis-St. Paul, via Fargo and Bismarck. In contrast, the southern counties along the Missouri and Big Sioux rivers were more closely tied by trade to Sioux City, and from there to Omaha or over to Chicago. These diverging economic ties left residents of different parts of the territory less connected to each other.

In terms of politics, the way the territory system was set up, legislators were appointed by the federal government in Washington, D.C., and tended to remain in the region only while they served their terms. The larger population of the southern region began to resent those “carpetbaggers,” Bucklin says, but the northerners tended to emphasize that it was cheaper to be a territory, with the feds funding a wide range of state functions. It didn’t help that the state legislators were sometimes notoriously corrupt—like Nehemiah Ordway, who moved the capital in 1883. “He essentially helped steal the state territorial capital from Yankton, now in South Dakota, to Bismarck, now in North Dakota” says Porter. The capital grab, which moved the capital even farther from the majority of the population, only fueled more resentment from the south.

By that point, South Dakotans had the necessary population for statehood and quickly moved to become an independent state. However, many attempts to form an independent state failed, Porter says, as the federal response was “either do it as one very large state, Dakota, or wait until you have enough people on both sides to be two separate states.”

That second option would play out before the decade was over. But why did they both choose to keep the name “Dakota”?

South Dakota wanted to be called simply “Dakota” Porter says, and “then the northern half would become either the territory of Pembina, which is a community right on the Canadian border, or else they thought we could be called the territory and ultimately state of Lincoln, as in the president.” But Porter says Dakota had already become a trademark of sorts—a source of quality products, “like California raisins or Florida orange juice”—and neither side wanted to give it up.

On Nov. 2, 1889 President Benjamin Harrison signed the papers to admit North and South Dakota as two separate states, along with Montana and Washington. Though North Dakota is generally considered the 39th state to South Dakota’s 40th state, it’s actually unclear which one was admitted first says Bucklin: “apparently President Harrison shuffled the paperwork first,” and signed the documents blindly.

:lol ad hominem

Yeah that's why the states themselves wanted to be divided (who wouldn't want more representation in congress), but having more Republicans is why congress signed off on it.

That article mentions a 60,000 population requirement. No worries on that front, north and south DC each have more than 60,000 people. DC meets the same requirements Dakota met to become two states :tu

[Will Hunting]

There's this thing called the house of representatives. Civics fail
Yeah this argument makes no sense. If the house is ruled by majority and the senate by minority, it's still effectively minority rule if the house passes legislation that's blocked by the senate.

The house also has no say over judge confirmations, so it matters a lot less than the senate. Right now we have a supreme court seat about to get filled by a president who lost the popular vote and a GOP senate majority that represents a population minority. Not saying it shouldn't happen since those are currently the rules and the Democrats failed to win with them before you try to use that strawman, just saying the existence of the house by no means offsets the senate rule by minority.

[DMC]

If DC became a state at all the nation's capitol would then be in a state, not in a district.

[Will Hunting]

Romney on board with McConnell & Co., not a chance they don't have the votes now.

The Dems should just be focused on making it so the GOP senators running for re-election need to spend more time in DC to get this done, but they're not going to be able to stop the inevitable. Let it be a lesson to how they need to manage the party going forward.

The Democrats should put up resistance to fan the flames on Obamacare (which should be easy since Barrett has made her position on Obamacare known) and campaign finance for the month of October while people are early voting and mail-in voting, but if Republicans clearly have the votes (which they seem to) then they should time it so confirmation happens right before election day imo. Gardner, McSally and Collins all lose if that happens, while the evangelicals aren't as motivated to show up in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia.

For the fundamental logic of health policy says that if you want to protect pre-existing conditions, you either have to have the government provide health insurance directly, as it does with Medicare and Medicaid, or use a combination of strict regulation and subsidies to induce private insurers to offer coverage.

And if you do try to rely on private insurers, the necessary system of regulation and subsidies will, inevitably, look a lot like Obamacare.
This is the inconvenient truth about healthcare that conservatives ignore - Obamacare was the least socialized, least liberal way to protect people with pre-existing conditions while making sure they have sufficient health insurance. There's no other policy to protect pre-existing conditions that involves less government regulation or subsidies. Republicans spent the first 6 months of 2017 tripping over their own dick trying to find a way to protect those with pre-existing conditions through a free market system and the square peg never fit down the round hole.

No doubt, but even though they had a larger majority there were too many DINOs in the senate for that to happen (3 Dems in the Dakotas, 2 in Arkansas, 2 in West Virginia, etc.), and there also wasn't any semblance of a progressive wing beyond Bernie Sanders before anyone cared about him.

Harry Reid, the heavyweight champion of :cry muh hands are tied :cry just came out and said the filibuster needs to end. Most importantly, Obama called it a Jim Crow relic and it's pretty clear Obama has regrets about letting the filibuster neuter his ability to get anything done. I'm pretty confident he's told Biden not to make the same mistake and let the filibuster compromise his presidency.

Obamacare is going to get axed while this pandemic is going on and it’s going to be an unprecedented health crisis. He won’t have the luxury of wasting time reaching across the aisle. If he can’t replace Obamacare the Democrats get destroyed in 2022 midterms and he’s a lame duck after that.

QUESTION, WBAY: If Trump's Supreme Court pick goes through but you win the election, democrats take over Senate and maintain the House, would you consider adding more Supreme Court justices to the bench?

JOE BIDEN: It’s a legitimate question, but let me tell you why I’m not going answer that question because it will shift the focus, that’s what he wants, he never wants to talk about the issue at hand and he always tries to change the subject. Let’s say I answer that question, then the whole debate is gonna be about what Biden said or didn’t say, Biden said he would or wouldn’t. The discussion should be about why he is moving in a direction that’s totally inconsistent with what founders wanted. The Constitution says voters get to pick a president who gets to make the pick and the senate gets to decide. We’re in the middle of the election right now, you know people are voting now. By the time this Supreme Court hearing would be held, if they hold one, it’s estimated 30 to 40% of American people already have voted. It is a fundamental breach of constitutional principle. It must stay on that and it shouldn’t happen.

Smart and well thought out answer for someone with dementia. :lol

We are in new times, El.

I fully expect a lot of things to happen, milquetoast Biden or not.

[Will Hunting]

Pelosi should attach repeal of the individual mandate to the CR, forcing the pending ACA SC case moot.
It’s moot right up until they manufacture another bad faith argument all the Federalist Society judges agree with.

There’s never going to be a point where Republicans give up and stop trying to kill healthcare reform as long as they’ve stacked the courts with federalist society bots. I know it sounds ridiculous but literally the only way Biden will be able to create lasting healthcare reform is if he’s ready to nuke the filibuster and stack the courts. That’s the reality we’re dealing with. It was bad enough when Roberts was the swing vote, he left Obamacare intact but weakened parts of it. With Gorsuch as the swing vote it doesn’t survive at all.

I knew Obamacare was never going to be successful. You need everybody to buy in to it to keep the premiums reasonably priced and that wasn't gonna happen. Young people were electing to pay the fine.

So it's either full blown universal health care or keep it how it is. Not a fan of it, but the Republican party will have to start budging on a few things to please a changing electorate. So I think this is where we are headed, as healthcare seems to be a big priority according to the pollsters. Often 2nd behind the economy.

I pretty much agree except “how it is” is untenable for a large portion of the population.

Obamacare was very successful in changing the status quo on healthcare and being the foot in the door that ultimately gets us to single payer. Now there’s a consensus that people with pre-existing conditions need protection and that letting private health insurance companies do whatever they want is a disaster. Obamacare is what led to that consensus.

[Will Hunting]

Hasn't the fine already been repealed meaning there really is no mandate?
Roberts previously ruled that the mandate effectively constituted a tax because of the fine and thus it was a constitutional usage of Congress’s power to tax.

The new argument is that since there’s no longer a fine then it’s not a tax, the mandate is thus unconstitutional, and since it’s a quintessential part of Obamacare then the entire ACA should go away with it.

Its a ridiculous bad faith argument seeing that a Republican majority in Congress passed separate legislation to nix the individual mandate but to leave the rest of the ACA intact. SCOTUS ruling in favor of elminating Obamacare would basically set the precedent that the majority in congress can have any existing legislation previously passed by the other party tossed out in court by intentionally passing an amendment that makes a small part of it unconstitutional.

dems are terrible at establishing and controlling narratives. The differences in the different ideologies within the party has led to having to cater to the middle in order to get elected.

I would hope this experience would unify the party, and increase participation. History says that’s not likely. But there can be a change if the centrists accept the left, and the left stops the ideological purity bullshit, and they provide coverage for each other, and win elections.

the pubs have absolutely interest in governing, that’s become clear, if it wasn’t clear before. They will do every single thing in their power to stop any progress.

That’s why its so important to win the next election and the next midterm and win at local and state levels.

They can maintain ideological purity all they want but it's time to nix the idea that not voting in order to "send a message" accomplishes anything. It didn't in 2016 and it's not going to this year.

It’s very much a double edged sword for Dems. You’re right. The party has to move forward and drag the 65% of non shit along with it.

but this is also right in the wheelhouse of all the r’s can do. They can’t govern, that’s been proven again and again. But they can obstruct and injure people who need the help the most. And that is their entire governing style. That’s all they have because they are bereft of any ideas and real core values other than enrich the most powerful and punish the least powerful to make them have to eat that shit sandwich.

this is the last chance for a change. Even if the Dems won all three branches, they will be vulnerable again in less than two years. Will the citizenry show up at the polls and allow them time to undo as much of this evil as they can? I doubt it.

Why Trump's expected Supreme Court nominee believes all Civil Rights legislation is 'illegitimate'

Amy Coney Barrett regards herself as an “originalist,” that is, someone who believes that all legal decisions must be based on the “original understanding” of the Constitution.

focused on meaning insist that they support the “public meaning” of the words at the time they were written.

People who, like Barrett, belong to the later group, insist that their interpretation is more consistent.

In fact, both approaches

require jurists to peer into the minds of 18th-century Americans, interpreting words,
attitudes, and relationships that have shifted enormously over two and a half centuries.

how conservatives like Barrett apply originalism.

Because they seem to believe that the “original meaning” of every word and phrase just happens to be a conservative meaning.

And where they can’t find the meaning that they want,

these dedicated preservationists have a second approach … throw it out.

Throw it all out.

Like the entire 14th Amendment.

Barrett writes about this text (https://scholarship.law.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1619&context=jcl), she mentions it in this way.

“Congress has to decide whether to … rely on the power conferred by the possibly illegitimate Fourteenth Amendment.”

Or …

“The originalist legislator might have to face questions … such as the legitimacy of the Fourteenth Amendment.”

how conservative Republicans became “14th Amendment deniers.”

For some Republicans, the 14th Amendment was viewed as being only intended to help those who had been directly enslaved, and not applicable to future generations.

This view has become common in right-wing media, and sorry as that sounds, it’s not even the most radical view.

members of Confederate states were not seated in Congress when the amendment was proposed just after the end of the Civil War

the Congress itself was illegitimate, and so anything it recommended—including the 14th and 15th Amendments—are illegitimate.

Imo the best way to win the 2022 midterms is to come in and get stuff done. Coming in and letting the Republicans filibuster you for two years is a surefire way to get beat (see 2010). The timing would work out well if it’s done right, wed be recovering from COVID and hitting our stride economically in 2022, and the 2022 senate map is about is favorable as it could ever be for Democrats.

CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin on Saturday blasted Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., for making Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett a "hero to religious conservatives" in 2017 — and said it was time the 87-year-old Senator "leave the committee."

"The dogma lives loudly within you," Feinstein declared at a Court of Appeals confirmation hearing for the Roman Catholic Barrett three years ago.

Toobin derided the comment from the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee as "so incompetent, so inept, so apparently religiously discriminatory that Amy Coney Barrett became a hero to religious conservatives."

"Dianne Feinstein was and is a distinguished public servant," he said. "She is now 87 years old and she has repeatedly engaged in behavior in recent months that seemed out of step with what Democrats want to do. She's going to be the leader. And all I can say is good luck with that, Democrats."

Feinstein has already said she doesn't support nuking the filibuster because "it's used a lot less than when I first got elected" which is just an flagrantly false narrative. It's usage has increased exponentially since she was first elected.

Unfortunately she's 87 fucking years old so she doesn't have to worry about re-election and can just use her last term as a way of joining with the Republicans and blocking tax reform or climate change reform.

Regarding Pelosi, she better replace Richie Neal as Ways & Means Chair next year.

Pelosi can't blame Republicans for making a Blackstone lobbyist chair of the Ways & Means Committee, then letting said lobbyist drag his feet on Trump's tax returns & blow up bipartisan legislation that would end surprise medical billing.

The Democrats lost the house in 2010 because they didn't get anything meaningful done - voters have no interest in hearing about how the filibuster made it so you had control of both houses but couldn't go beyond passing Bob Dole's healthcare plan. If they nuked the filibuster and then passed a multi-trillion dollar bailout plan that didn't only help banks, the 2010 midterms would have been a different story.

Party leaders have since admitted the Republicans caught them napping on 2010 redistricting. The Democrat Party simply failed in spectacular fashion during Obama's presidency in terms of midterm elections and state & local races.

so what happens then, when all of the sweeping changes you want all get overturned at federal judicial level?

i know DNC’s fault for not taking the feelings of a voting bloc that doesn’t participate and doing everything they demand

does the progressive left that has not participated in elections consistently have any culpability for their lack of participation? They scream the loudest, and will continue to do so when right after right is attacked, and all of the social legislation gets overturned. But not voting in 2000, 2004, 2010, and 2016 means nothing, right?

elections have consequences. When you don’t participate things you support are at best ignored, at worst overturned.

You responded to a post about Richie Neal.

Regarding Feinstein - she was re-elected in 2018 (an election where progressives did turn out) because of a 9:1 cash advantage over her more progressive opponent. Your argument that everything comes back to progressives not voting enough is oversimplified boomer bullshit. She survived 2018 because of Citizens United opening the floodgates of money in election.

But the reality is the questions i asked are directly related to why this happened. The barn was left open many years ago, and people are buying their representation.

the very system you are anecdotally critiquing was created through indifference. CU could have been stopped by the 2000 presidential election. But people felt the need to not participate or vote for Ralph Nader.

people could have shown up in 2010 and given cover to ensure that Dems were not punished for their vote on the ACA. 2016 was actually too late. The wheels were already in motion. But it could have prevented 3 Supreme Court justices from being appointed to do what they’re about to do.

President Donald Trump might have finally found something frequent critic and Lincoln Project founder George Conway have common ground on: conservative Judge Amy Coney Barrett.

Both Trump on Saturday at the nomination ceremony and Conway on Twitter used the phrase "eminently qualified" in talking about Barrett's credentials for the Supreme Court.

Conway responded to a tweet asking: "Is it possible some GOP senators will vote *against* confirming her because they feel she is not qualified?"

Conway tweeted:

"No. Not a chance. She is eminently qualified to serve on the Supreme Court."
