    Trump Retweets a Post Naming the Alleged Whistleblower

    Democracy Dies in Darkness Politics Impeachment White House Congress Polling The Trailer Fact Checker Trump retweets a post naming the alleged whistleblower By Colby Itkowitz Dec. 28, 2019 at 9:18 p.m. EST President Trump retweeted a post naming the alleged whistleblower who filed the complaint that became the catalyst for the congressional inquiry that resulted in his impeachment by the House of Representatives. On Friday night, Trump shared a Twitter post from @surfermom77, who describes herself as “100% Trump supporter,” with his 68 million followers. That tweet prominently named the alleged whistleblower and suggested that he had committed perjury. By Saturday morning, the post did not appear on Trump’s timeline, though it was visible to certain users and via direct link. On Saturday evening, Twitter acknowledged that a technical glitch made Trump’s retweet appear visible to some users but not others. AD Twitter said the discrepancy was the result of a system error that affected tweets from millions of users, including the president. For months, Trump has threatened to disclose the identity of the whistleblower, complaining that he should be able to face his accuser. In the past few days, he has inched closer to doing so. On Thursday night, the president retweeted a link to a Washington Examiner story that used the name. The alleged whistleblower has also been named in other conservative media, including Breitbart News. He was named by a contributor on Fox News, and Donald Trump Jr. has tweeted the name. The White House did not respond to a request for comment.
  • Chairman's Report

    Chairman's Report

    2014-2015 Chairman’s Report A Bi-annual report summarizing the organization’s activities in 2014 and 2015. “At the root of everything that we’re trying to accomplish is the belief that America has a mission. We are a nation of freedom, living under God, believing all citizens must have the opportunity to grow, create wealth, and build a better life for those who follow. If we live up to these moral values, we can keep the American dream alive for our children and our grandchildren, and America will remain mankind’s best hope” — Ronald Reagan 1 2 A Message From the Chairman... Dear Fellow Republicans, It is a great time to be a Republican in Cuyahoga County! 2014 was an exciting and busy year as we worked to re- elect our incumbent statewide candidates and further develop our voter engagement efforts with the creation of the Advocacy Council. While the work is constant, it builds a foundation for continued Republican success, such as the 70% of Republican endorsed candidates that were elected to local office in 2015. In 2014, Ohio Governor John Kasich won Cuyahoga County in his gubernatorial re-election; this was the first time Cuyahoga County voted Republican since Senator George Voinovich’s 2004 re-election to the U.S. Senate. Cuyahoga County was a regular campaign stop for many of our incumbent Republican officeholders, including a rally for Governor Kasich with U.S. Senator Rob Portman and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. In the end, winning Cuyahoga County was the icing on the cake for Governor Kasich who won a historic 86 out of 88 Ohio counties.

Clarke Follow this and additional works at: https://chicagounbound.uchicago.edu/uclf Part of the Law Commons Recommended Citation Clarke, Jessica A. (2019) "The Rules of #MeToo," University of Chicago Legal Forum: Vol. 2019 , Article 3.

It has been accepted for inclusion in University of Chicago Legal Forum by an authorized editor of Chicago Unbound. For more information, please contact [email protected]. The Rules of #MeToo Jessica A. Clarke† ABSTRACT Two revelations are central to the meaning of the #MeToo movement. First, sexual harassment and assault are ubiquitous. And second, traditional legal procedures have failed to redress these problems. In the absence of effective formal legal pro- cedures, a set of ad hoc processes have emerged for managing claims of sexual har- assment and assault against persons in high-level positions in business, media, and government. This Article sketches out the features of this informal process, in which journalists expose misconduct and employers, voters, audiences, consumers, or professional organizations are called upon to remove the accused from a position of power. Although this process exists largely in the shadow of the law, it has at- tracted criticisms in a legal register. President Trump tapped into a vein of popular backlash against the #MeToo movement in arguing that it is “a very scary time for young men in America” because “somebody could accuse you of something and you’re automatically guilty.” Yet this is not an apt characterization of #MeToo’s paradigm cases.

I. PURPOSE The criminal justice system on Indian lands consists of a complex and often overlapping matrix of federal, tribal, and in certain cir- cumstances, state jurisdiction. The complexity of this system has contributed to a crisis of violent crime on many Indian reserva- tions 1 that has persisted for decades. Federal reports have consist- ently found that the divided system of justice in place on Indian reservations lacks coordination, accountability, and adequate and consistent funding. These shortfalls, the reports find, serve to fos- 1 The terms ‘‘Indian reservations’’, ‘‘Indian country’’, ‘‘Indian communities’’, and ‘‘tribal commu- nities’’ are used interchangeably throughout this Report to refer to the lands on which federally recognized Indian tribes reside.

    Litigating National Security Cases in the Aftermath of 9/11 David C. Vladeck* The treacherous terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001, and the aftershocks that are still being felt years later, have had a profound effect on the legal landscape in the United States. In 9/11’s immediate aftermath, Congress, in a rare and fleeting moment of bi- partisanship, gave the President far-reaching authority to combat terrorism. Among other measures, Congress authorized the President to use military force against the 9/11 terrorists and those who aided or harbored them,1 enacted the USA PATRIOT Act to give the President unprecedented law enforcement and detention authority over suspected terrorists and those believed to be providing material support to terrorists,2 placed entire categories of unclassified, previously accessible, government-held information off-limits to the public,3 and, by creating the Department of Homeland Security, reorganized the Executive Branch to consolidate and better coordinate our nation’s security agencies.4 The President has used this authority to undertake massive and ongoing military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, to detain indefinitely and without criminal charges hundreds of foreign nationals and even American citizens,5 to step up counter-terrorism * Director of the Institute of Public Representation and Professor of Law, Georgetown University Law Center. This article draws mainly on my experience as a litigator, not as an academic. Prior to joining the full-time faculty at Georgetown in 2002, I spent more than twenty-five years at the Public Citizen Litigation Group, first as a staff attorney and then as director.
