Outstanding, a great pre-emptive measure.

(2,971 posts)Outside the government. I'm glad to hear this, but I hope he's not just assembling lawyers. I hate to say it, but he may need other "specialists". I'm sure Biden knows this. If Trump goes "extra-legal", I'm sorry to say that Biden will have to as well, and I hope he will be prepared. I think he will be this time around knowing what's at stake.
And I do not say these things lightly, it pains me to be at this place, but here we are and we must do what needs to be done to defeat the fascists.

Sadly Wisconsin has been at the forefront of election tampering since the early days of Scott Walker. Just because he has moved on it doesn't mean the election tampering machine has been disbanded. IT HAS NOT!

(9,478 posts)that is where the legal danger lies- for any law the Republicans break they will "make it legal".

(19,201 posts)We all know the republicans are going to litigate the bejeebus out of everything, so if the Biden/Harris team hadn't formed a huge legal force to combat republican dirty tricks I'd be gobsmacked!
There will be new and devious challenges thrown at them at every turn, so I hope they've had some ex-republican input into the types of skullduggery they might expect. There seem to be enough ex-republicans that would welcome Trump's defeat, so I hope they're brains are picked clean beforehand. They're as underhanded and dirty as they come, so be prepared for anything and everything.

(8,203 posts)It appears that Vance has made an impression on the appellate process by emphasizing the Trump delay legal strategy. The pace of appeals decisions has recently accelerated and the defense strategy of evading indictment until relevant statutes of limitations expire may well be in jeopardy. Given the likelihood that Vance has already obtained the needed tax returns and probable appellate rulings which will provide access to the Mazars USA material, it is possible that sufficient evidence has been obtained that would support fraud indictments of the Trump Organization and pertinent executives in the near future.
An October surprise indeed!
