they can, but it's dishonest.
I mean it was like they stumbled onto something that they realized in my view
gave them the excuse to go in there and
this magistrate judge just rubber stamped it.
You know, we don't know the politics of this guy.
We know he donated to Barack Obama.
We know he was critical of president trump a couple of times online when he had
said something about john lewis, he came out and he clearly doesn't like President
trump Allow me, we just put together little full screen for you right there.
Judge Reinhardt's liberal resume.
You're right.
He donated thousands to Barack Obama twice, not just in the way,
but twice represented employees have convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and
donated to Trump's opponent Jeb Bush in 2015 and 2016.
Okay.
So there has been this full court press against both the FBI and
also in particular the judge who apparently signed off on the warrant
to search mar a Lago and you can tell that it's a serious journalistic enterprise
digging into his past because they decided to put up a photo of him eating Oreos for
some reason that I will never understand.
But he apparently did donate some money to Barack Obama and that
means that he is unacceptable as a judge what we are learning their from laura or
Megyn kelly and Newsmax is that no one can be a judge if they made
political donations because well, I mean I assume that's what they mean.
They must be expressing an actual principle, they wouldn't be just pointing
that out in this case and wouldn't want to apply it to any others right?
They wouldn't believe that you can't have weighed in in any way on politics ever and
be involved in our judicial system.
Of course they don't think that they're perfectly fine with people donating to
trump and getting judicial positions.
Anyway, they find it to be convincing in this case because this guy years and
years ago gave money to Barack Obama who I guess is a communist or something.
In any event, their criticism of him,
their photos of him eating Oreos has had the predictable effect.
Which is that online on pro donald trump message boards and other
websites there are a number of violent anti Semitic threats against the judge.
What do you know?
They went to death threats and they went to anti Semitism almost instantaneously
they've been posting what they believed to be his home address, phone numbers and
names of his family members including messages like this,
this is a piece of S judge who approved FBI's raid on mar a Lago.
I see a rope around his neck.
Another this is on the Donald by the way everyone was aggrieved when the Donald was
thrown off of reddit.
I wonder why they felt they had to throw it off.
They're threatening to lynch a judge and going on to say
let's find out if he has Children where they go to school, where they live?
Everything one apparently said let's cut off his bloodline
which means murder his kids do you get where they're going with this.
So yeah they identify the judge,
they throw up mocking photos of him on on on Newsmax and stuff like that.
They talk about him on Fox and what do you know the anti Semitism?
The death threats,
the threats to wipe out his entire family follow soon after Adrian.
What do you think?
Okay so initially when I heard about this judge and there were these allegations
online that he had represented Epstein or whatever I was like yeah so
I could care less and then learning more about the situation.
Number one okay so it's completely entirely unacceptable
Number one to engage in this anti Semitism.
That's incredibly disgusting.
Number two the thought that they're doxing his family members and his Children.
That's X.
Problematic in part because the families and
Children they need to ultimately be protected by the U.
S. Marshals because right now it would just
be that judge.
And so that's incredibly unacceptable.
It's it's it's not okay and I really do hope the U.
S. Marshals are stepping up to
protect this judge.
This isn't okay.
Also, you know initially I guess when I had learned about his ties to Epstein or
at least it turns out he was represented some of Epstein's colleagues or friends or
employees you know I do appreciate that as a lawyer you do defend all sorts
of people who you wouldn't necessarily like or engage with or spend time with.
And so I, as much as I would like to give him a pass on that now,
I do more so than I did initially, because I didn't I don't necessarily know what
his motives were, even though I wouldn't get have gotten close to Epstein or
thought that that was acceptable at all.
I think that that's a totally fair critique.
But again, like, do they have an issue with the judge getting
his position before, you know, because of that, that that that honest
issue that they have with the guy having represented them though.
Look, if we could jump ahead to our final graphic here, you know,
who else comes on Newsmax constantly.
Alan Dershowitz comes on Fox is.
So what is the standard that you are implying you have for people representing
Epstein affiliated people or I don't know, representing Epstein?
Like, I just want to know what the standard is supposed to be so
that I can process this.
I would be perfectly fine with saying like,
let's get money totally out of politics, then you never need to worry about your
judges having donated to candidates, but that is not what they're actually saying,
and I will remind you by the way, as they're like rallying the troops to go
after this guy as the death threats are coming in, we're what two weeks,
maybe three out of the news cycle of their coming after the scotus over roe v wade.
We need to pass legislation instantly instantly to defend them.
How dare anyone peacefully protests near a member of of the Scotties.
This guy signed off on a warrant to investigate trump,
dispatch the anti Semites, go find his kids find their school.
What happens happens is effectively the approach that they have there.
Again, I am just desperately looking for one actual principal.
An actual standard that is not based entirely on political opportunism.
Yeah.
And I I think you're gonna be looking for sometimes on the fact is that these people
do not think the law or any kind of rules and regulations should apply to a certain
segment of our population, whether it's white male and privileged, but
it's disgusting that this is who these people are.
I just wish they would be honest about it.
