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 nations 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 shouldnt 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.

(7,557 posts)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.

(166,959 posts)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.
