Trump DOJ opposes the release of SPLC grand jury transcripts, but what the memo *doesn't* say speaks volumes. Feds don't dispute the SPLC's account of the Trump admin's "gross misrepresentations" about the informant program.

kinda undermines the case.


Of course, it’s a farce, but it doesn’t cost them anything outside of political capital and god knows that the administration doesn’t care about that anymore.

That’s like saying that they have cops the ability to arrest criminals and the cops used that power to target people breaking the law. They “targeted”republicans because republicans are corrupt.

Don't. This is a standard step that financial institutions take in these circumstances. Failure to do this can put an institution at risk of being charged with money laundering. This should not be understood as Fidelity/Vanguard taking a stand on the legitimacy of the indictment.


Nope, it’s a rule they invented just now. They never applied that rule before.


Of course they have. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

Now the SPLC will have to spend millions defending themselves. They will win, but meanwhile, their image has been tarnished, which is the aim of the Trump administration. The Trumpers want to use the DOJ to vanquish their enemies, ie those groups and people who care about equity and fairness and the rule of law.


The fact that an organization that fights hate crimes is a political enemy of the Trump Admin tells you all you need to know about MAGA.

So when the KKK meets these days, is there a single person there that's not an informant or undercover agent? Do they even get.a single patsy or is it entirely a circle of entrapment?
