#Republican-appointed judges raise alarm over #Trump attacks on #law
Federal DC Judge #ReggieWalton warned Trump’s attacks on #HushMoney trial judge & others could lead to #violence.
The Republican-appointed judge denounced Trump’s attacks against the judge presiding over his hush money trial in Manhattan & his daughter, calling them assaults on the #RuleOfLaw that could lead to violence & #tyranny.
“The #RuleOfLaw can only be maintained if we have #independent#judicial officers who are able to do their job & ensure that the #laws are in fact enforced & that the laws are applied equally to everybody who appears in our courthouse,” #ReggieWalton told CNN. He was prompted to speak out of concern for the “future of our country & the future of #democracy in our country,” Walton said, “because if we don’t have a viable court system that’s able to function efficiently, then we have #tyranny.”
Notable/frequent guests include Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, Edward Snowden, Vandana Shiva, David Graeber, Greta Thunberg, and so many more not listed on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Now!
#JosephLieberman, the doggedly independent 4-term #US#senator from #Connecticut who was the Democratic nominee for VP in 2000, becoming the first Jewish candidate on the national ticket of a major party, died March 27 in NYC. He was 82.

His full-throated support of the 2003 invasion of #Iraq & the increasingly unpopular #war that followed doomed #JoeLieberman’s bid for the Democratic presidential nom in 2004 & led to his rejection by #Connecticut#Democrats when he sought his 4th #Senate term in 2006. He kept his seat by running that Nov as an #independent candidate & attracting substantial support from #Republican & unaffiliated voters.
#RobertHur said that AG #MerrickGarland did not interfere w/his investigation or attempt to modify his report. Rep Joe #Neguse asked #Hur a series of yes/no questions about whether #Garland —or any #DOJ ofcls— attempted to impede the investigation.
The appointment of a #SpecialCounsel is intended to make high-profile, sensitive investigations as #independent & #apolitical as possible. A SC has more independence from DOJ ldrs than other fed prosecutors, but still ultimately answers to the #USAG.
Truly shocked by this #Starmer interview 22 Feb.24 with Sky News-later cut & deleted.
KS “Last w/end I was at the Munich security conference talking to world leaders about the plan…I drafted a Labour Amendment….I did not threaten the speaker...’ I simply urged him’…having spoken to the president of Israel. I.E having spoken to the people who are actually involved...”

The report came days before Judge Arthur #Engoron was expected to deliver a verdict in #NYAG#LetitiaJames' case.
Barbara Jones, a retired federal judge who has been involved in multiple #Trump-related #legal proceedings, was selected in November 2022 by BOTH Trump & James as their top pick to serve as the #independent#monitor in the #civil#fraud case.
