A coalition of prosecutors from across the nation are flying to Washington, D.C. this week to develop an action plan for holding the Trump administration accountable amid its ongoing immigration raids, Ex-White House official Miles Taylor exclusively reported Tuesday.

Those prosecutors are part of the new organization Fight Against Federal Overreach, first revealed last week and established to put together a strategy for holding federal immigration officials accountable for their sometimes violent and arguably unconstitutional actions.

“This week, something unusual is happening in the nation’s capital,” Taylor wrote Tuesday on his Substack “Defiance News.”

“Local prosecutors from across the United States are flying to Washington, D.C. for an emergency meeting about a simple idea that shouldn’t be controversial: No federal agent is above the law. Yet the Trump administration will undoubtedly be furious to know the gathering is taking place, as the organizers are readying efforts to hold its agents accountable for misconduct.”

Suggestion, never believe a word any right winger says ,,they stand for nothing and fall for everything, most of them have proven they are not trustworthy or reasonable, they are of a certain mindset , not a coherent political party/ movement

6. Call the men in the white suits and grab a straitjacket

Throw him in a padded -- nah, make that an unpadded cell!

[Grokenstein]

11. Repurpose those ICE detention centers.

Treat him and his co-conspirators to the same conditions they subject others.

[BattleRow]

14. I hear Guantanamo is nice this time of year..

It's still open,isn't it?

[Volaris]

20. Lol it is...but inly because Repoblicans wouldnt allow Obama to close it, if memory serves...

[creon]

24. yes

Trump does belong iin psychiatric nursing home.

He is gaga.

[returnee]

42. He belongs in maximum security federal detention center.

He needs intense debriefing on his secret arrangements with multiple foreign leaders. I’m ok with waterboarding for info.

[Maninacan]

7. 1st grade treatment

Sit him in the corner with tape over his mouth .

[FakeNoose]

8. Bring in the babysitters ... it's time to shut him up!

[evolves]

13. Silence is golden

But duct tape is silver

[RockCreek]

16. He will be furious if his duct tape isn't golden!

[slightlv]

9. Something tells me that republicans

have been reading the tea leaves of special elections and other elections that have occurred since the criminal put himself back into the Oval. They're scared they may have to actually work for a living, rather than living off of our largesse, because of the orange tyrant.

It's good to see some movement from those who've been under his thumb for so long... and it could probably only have come from them, just like it took Nixon's inner circle to tell him to leave. But I don't have a hell of a lot of hope these "men" will have enough backbone to make anything happen FOR the people.

[BattleRow]

23. It's impossible to substitute a wishbone for a backbone.

[orleans]

10. maybe he'll get so mad he'll have a heart attack nt

[pat_k]

12. I joined defiance.org when it was first announced

It's early days, but I think it is becoming an effective group.

19. Thanks for the link.

Joined.

[barbtries]

21. Me too,

and i've taken to watching their daily show on youtube:

I've also supported FAFO since they announced it last week.

[yellow dahlia]

28. Miles Taylor knows his stuff.

[bronxiteforever]

15. One thing I haven't found in the article I would

like to know. is this a bipartisan group or just Ds and will we know who is in the group?
Maybe I missed it but if someone knows I would appreciate knowing.

[BumRushDaShow]

17. One of the founders is the guy who wrote the article I linked to in the comments

I.e., Miles Taylor, who was a former Republican and served in Shrub's administration and 45's (as DHS Chief of Staff) first administration.

He was the writer of that "Anonymous" OP-Ed to the NYT titled “I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration,” - https://www.democraticunderground.com/10142151316

The "About" - https://www.defiance.org/about

I expect this is a "Lincoln Project"-like group but probably picking up bipartisan support.

[bronxiteforever]

26. Thank you!

22. We are seeing the literal demonstration of "cutting off your nose to spite your face."

Whomever the White House troll behind all this is should figure out how to get out of town fast. This will backfire on them hugely, everywhere.

[Dan]

27. Sometimes I wonder, if the a coalition of States will just come out and say -

That there is more than enough evidence to indicate that Trump and his Cabinet are working for Putin and deliberately trying to harm the U.S. with the consent of the members in the GOP Congress.

[yellow dahlia]

29. I keep thinking maybe there is some super secret method and plan

....in some founding document or something - to take our country back.

[pat_k]

34. Wouldn't it be fantastic to see a declaration that names the usurpations and abuses signed by EVERY

...Democratic member of the House and Senate, all 24 Democratic Governors and AG's, and any Republican Governor or member who have a single bit of moral fiber left.

A declaration that not only names the crimes against our human rights, our constitution, our body of laws, our treaties, and against our allies, but that is a statement to the people of this nation, and the people of the world, that there is a powerful block of U.S. States and members of the U.S. House and Senate who are united in doing everything in their power to protect their constituents and the residents of their states against the intolerable abuses being perpetrated by the corrupt forces that have co-opted our executive branch.

I know that herding Democrats is harder than herding cats, but this crisis demands an unprecedented show of unity and solidarity. If our leaders can't figure how how to stand together, united, behind a single powerful declaration of wrongs, how can they expect us to believe they'll figure out how to stand together to not just right those wrongs, but enact reforms that make it possible to get back on the path to a more perfect union that SERVES us??? (e.g., put an end to gerrymandering, ensure truly free and fair elections, put an end to citizens united, for starters, wealth tax, tax capital gains higher than labor, progressive income tax)

[yellow dahlia]

35. The time to act was yesterday, and every day before...but I'll take NOW.

Isn't there something about violating the Constitution from all directions? Get creative Congress critters!

[pat_k]

31. We need all 24 Democratic State Governors to stand together in opposition.

A joint appearance and statement listing the usurpations and violations and their steadfast resolution to stand together in opposition with a review of actions they have taken in their individual states and an announcement of agreements among the states to protect their people .. with more to come. Make it clear that the free states of this nation have the courage to do what they must to stay free.

In this crisis, the DGA needs to do a hell of a lot more than work to elect Democratic Governors. It needs to take the lead in the sort of coordinated, effective, unprecedented, response that this unprecedented crisis demands.

https://democraticgovernors.org/governors/

Beshear is the Chair. Write, Call, Schedule meetings to ask what they plan to do as a group -- and if nothing, lobby for coordinated action.

The Attorneys General have taken some coordinated action. It's time for the Governors to get visible as a force standing in solidarity.

[usonian]

30. Oops, They're coming to take him away.

[Martin68]

32. I applaud their courage and wish them well. We will need to have many different prongs of attack to bring down the Trump

administration.

[liberalla]

33. I do love this!

[kimbutgar]

36. I love how they're standing up to the 🍊🐖💩 and staying I don't think so !

This song comes on in my head sometimes when I think “enough about the overreach we’re experiencing now.”..

39. Blow a gasket, Piggy

Do the world a favor.

[SunSeeker]

40. Oh come on Rawstory, they're not "arguably" unconstitutional actions. They are BLATANTLY unconstitutional.

[fujiyamasan]

41. They're just worried about him shitting in his pants more in front of camera

[WestMichRad]

44. K& a huge R

This effort is worthy of our support, IMHO.
