DOJ asks judge to drop order barring Oath Keepers from visiting Capitol

Stewart Rhodes, previously sentenced to 18 years for seditious conspiracy, was at the Capitol Wednesday chatting up lawmakers and reporters.

The Justice Department is asking a federal judge to drop his recent order barring Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes — who was freed from prison by President Donald Trump earlier this week — and several top allies from entering Washington D.C. or the Capitol without permission.

Acting U.S. attorney for D.C. Ed Martin, a longtime advocate for Jan. 6 defendants, signed the motion asking U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta to reverse his position, issued just hours earlier on Friday. The defendants “are no longer subject to terms of supervised release and probation,” he wrote.

Martin followed up his motion with a press statement.

“If a judge decided that Jim Biden, General Mark Milley, or another individual were forbidden to visit America’s capital — even after receiving a last-minute, preemptive pardon from the former President — I believe most Americans would object,” Martin said in a statement. “The individuals referenced in our motion have had their sentences commuted — period, end of sentence.”

Mehta’s order appeared to be a response to Rhodes’ decision to hold court in the Capitol Wednesday, just days after Trump commuted his 18-year prison sentence for seditious conspiracy, related to his role in the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol. It also applied to several of Rhodes’ co-defendants in the case.

“You must not knowingly enter the United States Capitol Building or onto surrounding grounds known as Capitol Square … without first obtaining the permission from the...

OK, so far - with good catchy recommendations at the end. I am neither musical nor poetic. But I can keep things in a word file without losing them and I can create a thread. That’s about it! (I can try to make the changes, but at least 50% will be wrong). If I don’t hear from either of you, I’ll give it a try in a few days. I know your efforts should be focused on the new days of amazing Trumpmas accomplishments)

On the first day of Trumpmas my President gave to me 26 executive orders.

On the second day of Trumpmas my President gave to me 1,000 DEI firings and 26 executive orders.

“On the third day of Trumpmas, my President brought to me, a closed asylum system”
On the third day of Trumpmas my President gave to me 300 gangs arrested, 1,000 DEI firings, and 26 executive orders.

“On the Fourth Day of Trumpmas, my President gave to me, pro-life pardons numbering 23...”

The Fifth Day of Trumpmas - DOJ47 gently rubs Obama stooge Amit Mehta’s nose in his own stinking Jan 6th pile...
“On the Fifth Day of Trumpmas, my President gave to me - a stick in the eye of DC...”

1st day - 26 executive orders
Day 2 - 1000 firings
Day 3 - 300 gangs arrested
Day 4 - 23 pro-life pardons
Day 5 - can only be 5 syllables long to match the 5 golden rings.
By day 12, we will have an catchy song that memorializes history.

Day 5 - can only be 5 syllables long to match the 5 golden rings.

This will be tough.

I agree that it has to be a catchy short refrain.

5 judges with a wedgie?

Since he is canceling wind farms, we have number 5 in just 4 syllables:

On the 5th day of Trumpmas my President gave to me real energy!

Day 1 - 26 executive orders
Day 2 - 1,000 firings (drop the DEI)
Day 3 - 300 gangs arrested
Day 4 - 23 pro-life pardons
Day 5 - real energy (unless there is peace in Ukraine)

I’m sure all his other accomplishments in this short window can fill out several other songs.

He’s a busy man!

By what right, on his own initiative, does this activist judge think he has the right to issue such an order?

Since the CBDC has nationwide implications, let’s go with that.

Perfect!

Reflects the “12 Days” framing and cadence very well. Plus, people won’t forget The Great Columbian Cave.
