@jeffrey56222295 @dilanesper The constitution does guarantee a right to participate in a primary where it is at least an integral part of the procedure for choosing Representatives. United States v. Classic, 313 U.S. 299

@LakeShowLeg @reeveslawstl @kheyen @DLHoskins Court says not moving forward with HB1 will irreparably harm plaintiffs & “harm could not be more imminent: under state law, deadline for finalizing the ballot is today” (in 2min) & the use of any map other than HB1 is forbidden and after all that, “do nothing” isnt contumacious?

@MarkP21 @reeveslawstl @chuckhatfield @DLHoskins Fed court says that not moving forward with HB1 will irreparably harm plaintiffs & “harm could not be more imminent: under state law, deadline for finalizing the ballot is today” & the use of any map other than HB1 is forbidden, but after all that, “do nothing” somehow complies?

@reeveslawstl @DLHoskins Is SCMO now going to allow some party subject to a future prohibitory injunction from that court to just refuse to perform its duties altogether, rather than performing its duties in the specific way that the court says is the only manner not forbidden?

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@baseballot The final resolution was definitely not delayed (and the winner flipped at the last minute) until after all filing deadlines had passed so as to prevent any write in or other campaigns from being allowed to go forward… That is DEFINITELY NOT what happened here.

@HughLouisDewey Not needed. They were printed up, filled out, and readied for injection long ago. For the Defenders of Democracy, this 2-day tussle w/ Ralph Club’s biggest contributor was but a “stand back and stand by.” @DLHoskins, save the cash for a rainy day, the Dems will take it from here!

@ilan_wurman Orval Faubus sure could have used a guy like you in 1959!

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@reeveslawstl @dave_roland @BigElad @reeveslawstl since he was formally in contempt (could’ve gone silent & failed to discharge a duty of office rather than doing it in the specific way called out by J. Clark), don’t MO practitioners now have duty to seek—to max. extent possible—mandatory language over prohibitory?

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@MarkMaxwellTV My condolences to those in MO saddled with the new precedent that prohibitory language from a court now implicitly authorizes a party to refuse to perform its duties altogether as an alternative to performing its duties in the specific way authorized by the prohibitory language.

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@MarkMaxwellTV Sounds grave. Such an extraordinary measure should be reserved for only the most unusual circumstances, like when a state court is purporting to act under color of law and enters action having the effect of coercing someone into violating an order of that federal court.

@ElectionCenter_ The victims of the SOS’s law breaking asked for relief from a federal judge and were granted it. Unless relief can be fashioned to somehow prevent any benefit to the SOS, it can’t be granted and the victims’ federal constitutional rights must continue to be violated?

@SenMarkKelly Was this before or after two large men appeared in red hats, loudly declaring “this is MAGA country!” ?

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@rachelroyalkc The voters who asked the federal court to stop Missouri from violating their federal constitutional rights weren’t a party to the state court proceedings and no state court made any decision considering whether those rights were being violated. No Rooker-Feldman

@tedfrank Suspend the prohibition against corruption of blood and bar him and his descendants for the next 100 generations from holding any public office!

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@BigElad Are his guns bigger than the ones carried by the MO Nat Guard when called into federal service to enforce federal court orders against contrary state court orders? Does Chief Justice Faubus not have any loved ones who can convince him to back down from his ill-fated insurrection?

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@ElectionCenter_ Why would that be used to deny relief to innocent bystander voters suing the SOS in federal court? They weren’t responsible for what happened and sued the SOS asking a federal court to make him stop violating their federal constitutional rights. The court has done that.

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@scotus_wire Hopefully the loved ones of Chief Justice Faubus can impress upon him to abandon his ill-fated foray into insurrection before it’s too late!

@harrisonjlang Among the lawyers there is a not insignificant number who engage in the venerable communist tradition of pretending not to understand as well.

[WNW @wnwaggoner]

@markpgaber Why is using the 2025 map specifically any more contumacious of the MO S. Ct. order than it would be to disobey their directive to use the 2022 map by means other than using the 2025 map?
