Gotta laugh when conservatives cheer the dismissal of a lawsuit on the basis of legal standing but cry about their election integrity cases being thrown out on the very same basis...
Being bipolar hypocrites is a MAGA bug...its a feature
On Tuesday, a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit that had been filed by disgraced former National Security Council aide Alexander Vindman against former President Donald Trump.
Politico reports that Mr. Vindman’s lawsuit, which claims that his civil rights had been violated by several top Trump Administration officials, was thrown out by Judge James Boasberg of the U.S. District Court. Mr. Vindman specifically named Donald Trump Jr., former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani, former Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino, and former Deputy White House Communications Director Julia Hahn as the officials who he believed had smeared him publicly.
Judge Boasberg, however, determined that Mr. Vindman did not have a legal basis to sue the four officials under the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, declaring that “political hackery alone does not violate” that law. However, the Obama-appointed Boasberg hinted at his support for Mr. Vindman’s overall cause despite the lack of legal standing, adding that “the court does not decide the validity of those attacks, regardless of whether some were outside the bounds of appropriate political discourse.”
