“This is not a reasonable offer. If Defendants have decided that Plaintiff should be permitted to review documents, then he should be permitted to take notes and to make copies if he thinks that doing so would be useful,” she said.
Sort of like how Congress wasn’t allowed to take notes on any of the documents related to the Iraq war run-up, eh? You rock, Judge Kollar-Kotelly.
Kobach is treating this panel as if it is his private club and only he sets the rules!
Well, wake up you stupid dude! You are working on PUBLIC POLICY and the PUBLIC has the RIGHT TO KNOW!
You are not a dealer that gets to deal with whomever you want to…you and not in that league. Glad the Judge put your ass in CHECK!
Lock them up. Lock them ALL up.
Drumpf: What records? Besides, Putin has the password and he will never divulge.
It’s hard to believe that even Trump and his gauleiter, Kobach, would be this obvious. But Kobach isn’t very bright.
The commission is chaired by Vice President Pence, and vice-chaired by Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach ®
Say no more!
Why?
Am I recognizing a pattern here? Does Comrade Cockholster secretly desire fat chicks? Is he a chubby chaser?

“The president and the nation are grateful for the service and sacrifice of our fallen American heroes,” a White House official told The Atlantic. “We have addressed the president’s outreach to the families extensively and out of respect, we are not going to comment further.”
Case closed. Fat chicks 2*; dead (loser) guys 0.

Understand. Any states that gave him any information gave him public records, charging him for the info. His gain (if you want to call it that) was to bring to the public how “voter suppression” is supposed to work, in theory.
He failed. Bigly.
Kobach is a hero, in a way. With egg all over his face, he’s shown that people aren’t as stupid as Kansans once were. (I hope.)
“and vice-chaired by Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach ®, who is known for pushing restrictive voting laws.”
AND KNOWN ALSO FOR REFUSING TO TURN OVER ELECTION RECORDS FOR PUBLIC SCRUTINY!

Brownback WAS the ProtoTrump. THe tax mess they made of this state is being played out in a dangerous deja-vu. If the nation suffers a similar trickle-down disaster to what KIansas is climbing up out of, we’re all in for a depression.
“Klansas?” there’s a typo for the AGES… I’ll leave it like that…
Watch very closely for this “commission “ to suddenly appear after its mysterious disappearance, armed with a set of “recommendations “ for “eliminating “ voter fraud in America. Congress will turn those proposed steps into legislation almost instantaneously and ram it through at record speed
It’s a crucial part of their plans to withstand the opposition they have created and is of a part with gerrymandering and social media manipulation
Well, the EPA now has their own ‘cone of silence’.
Psst…Slovenia doesn’t have fjords.
Actually…
One can argue that he is the first President to get Christmas cancelled in the place it all supposedly started.
You’re right, they only have Chjevies…
Trump revives the coal industry with Xmas gifts for the unrich.
O Merry Christmas for that
and everything else but that was choice - chjevies hahahahahahahahahah
OK, let’s play the repube haiku game (these are white males were taking about here, real Ward Cleaver types, so normal haiku rules do not apply, just because white guys…):
this commission is nothing more than a snipe hunt, there is no evidence of voter fraud in Clinton’s favor, no evidence,
time for the commission to report it’s findings in a transparent way so that we can judge if this has been a fraud perpetrated on the American people,
America has to move on from this divisive topic and begin to heal, we must accept that the person occupying the White House legitimately lost the election by a record breaking total, never has one person lost by more votes and still been awarded the victory,
amazing that the vote total loser in this election has whined so bigly about being named the winner, gives insight into how insanely selfish and insecure one spoiled rich kid can be.
Born on third base and thought he hit a triple.
Poor confused dickhead donnie.
Something like that
Not even for “free”.
Non-lawyer glancing through the court’s decision. This looked like the main defense points addressed by the court.
Dunlap only has the right to receive documents that are for use by the commission “as a whole.” [court said that previous case didn’t distinguish between documents provided to all and those that were not] (I’d add that defense position would create a circular logic, where withholding a document from a commissioner would, by itself, eliminate the member’s right to view the document)
The commission hasn’t produced a final report, which was the situation in a previously decided case where a commission member said she had been denied documents. [court said her rights as a member weren’t created by issuance of a final report]
Dunlap doesn’t have a right to every little bit of paper generated by every commissioner and staffer. [court noted that Dunlap didn’t ask for that]
Bylaws of the commission settle who has the authority to set the agenda for meetings and provide for the input of commissioners. [court said that bylaws can’t circumvent law, and that the provisions for input are meaningless if commissioner is not kept informed]
There are more points of contention raised, but they get into legal deep weeds where even I don’t think my commentary would be of any value. The four points above seem to be the ones the defense uses to claim that Dunlap doesn’t have a right to the items he is requesting.
