I would not trust Eastman’s view of “constitutional infirmities.”

Eastman is hardly a “conservative attorney.”
Along with the rest of the MAGAstan Trumpists, his fellow travelers at the Claremont Institute, and most modern Republicans, Eastman is a right-wing extremist.
Don’t insult conservatives by using that label for them.

After saying that Eastman’s “rights and privileges” do not eliminate the government’s authority to seize and search his phone…Eastman failed to demonstrate “irreparable injury and an inadequate remedy at law sufficient to merit consideration of his attack on the legality of the warrant” or return of records seized from his phone.

The FBI raided the home of the Orange POS you seditionist delta bravo. Do you think Government gives a frack about his lackeys’.

I thought Eastman taught a course on “constitutional infirmities.” The reading list consisted of his own legal theories and nothing else.

Dear Mr. Eastman,

Fuck you, and the traitorous just-raided-by-the-FBI horse’s ass you rode in on.

With the greatest possible sincerity,

With level of legal acumen being shown by weather and his colleagues now day after day, I mean, IANAL but wondering if maybe I too could get a tenured position at the Claremont institute. It seems like the bar for entry is just…so…low…

As my husband used to tell our son, “you had all day to come up with a story and that is the best you can do.” Which, it always burst our son’s ego because he always thought he had the perfect story to get out of trouble with his father. So, back to John Eastman, you had a month to produce a story, and this is the best you could do? It will not work John Eastman.

Then it’s easy to believe
Somebody’s been lying to me
But when the wrong word
Goes in the right ear
I know you’ve been lying to me
It’s getting rough, off the cuff
I’ve got to say enough’s enough
Bigger the harder, he falls
But when the wrong antidote
Is like a bulge on the throat
You run for cover in the heat
Why don’t they

There is some symmetry to this given that Eastman is a walking, talking, Constitutional infirmity.

“But, Judge, my phone has a special criming app that is not supported on newer operating systems, so if I have to buy a new phone, I won’t be able to download it again.”

Hadn’t thought of that tune in years. Will have to give it a listen, or two, today.
