UPDATE on referendum lawsuits: The Tazewell Circuit Court just ruled the referendum unconstitutional. The Judge entered an injunction blocking certification of the election & denied a motion to stay pending appeal. A final order will be entered once drafted, & it will be immediately appealed @ETI_now







I was a career corruption and civil rights prosecutor. The Trump Justice Department’s prosecution of the Southern Poverty Law Center, a storied non-profit devoted to combatting racism and white supremacy, is a sham. DOJ’s empty indictment accuses the SPLC--which paid to gather needed intelligence about the activities of extremists--of supporting the infamous 2017 Unite the Right white supremacist rally in Charlottesville. (Yes—the violent rally about which Donald Trump said there were “some very fine people on both sides”). The DOJ probably didn’t share with the grand jury the fact that the SPLC issued a newsletter in advance of the rally using its gathered intelligence—clear evidence that the SPLC was combatting the extremists, not helping them. When the court or the jury get the full picture, expect this case to fail. We have to take back Congress and hold this DOJ accountable. Join me at cooneyforcongress.com
