    “At least four newly-elected Reform UK councillors appear to have been suspended, expelled or resigned their seats altogether since the local elections in England. They only took place last Thursday, 7 May.

    But there are more than 30 other new Reform councillors who face allegations of wrongdoing, hypocrisy, sharing hateful social media material and more, analysis by Byline Times finds, none of whom appear to have faced any disciplinary action so far”

  3. The #CourtOrders issued Tues marked an escalation, signaling active efforts by the #judges to appoint the district’s top federal prosecutor under a #federal #law that gives them the power to do so after an interim #USattorney has been in office for 120 days. That order by Lauck was followed hours later with another one from Novak, who raised the threat of #disciplinary action for anyone who describes #LindseyHalligan as the #US attorney in #legal filings.

  5. Federal #judges move to oust #Trump stooge #LindseyHalligan as #USattorney

    Her appointment was ruled #unlawful, but she has refused to step down.

    In a pair of extraordinary moves, 2 federal judges issued #CourtOrders Tues saying they intend to remove Halligan from the helm of a key US attorney’s office in Virginia & threatening #disciplinary #sanctions for any govt #lawyer who continues to refer to her as US attorney in #legal filings.

  10. Wouldn't it be great if #US District #Judges:
    1. Found
    #DOJ attorneys in #ContemptOfCourt
    2. Referred the DOJ attorneys for
    #disciplinary action
    3. Struck the DOJ attorneys from the Court Rolls where they would no longer be authorized to practice law in their court

    #Trump and his minions have shown utter contempt for US #Courts and the #RuleOfLaw at every turn.

    It's time for the Courts to fight back!

  11. In March, #Ellis admitted in a sworn stmnt in #Colorado, …she had #knowingly *misrepresented* the #facts in several public claims that widespread voting #fraud had… led to #Trump’s defeat. Those admissions were part of an agreement Ellis made to accept public #censure & settle #disciplinary measures brought against her by state #bar ofcls in CO.

    Though she is still able to practice #law in CO, the group that brought the original complaint against her, …said Tues that new action would be coming.

  13. But the #CodeOfConduct only applies to the lower courts. At the #SupremeCourt, justices decide what’s appropriate for themselves.

    “I can’t imagine — it takes my breath away, frankly — that he would go to a #Koch network event for #donors,” said John E. Jones III, a ret #federal #judge appointed by President George W. #Bush. Jones said that if he had gone to a Koch summit as a district court judge, “I’d have gotten a letter that would’ve commenced a #disciplinary proceeding.”

  15. When kids are tapered off one psychotropic drug only to be replaced with another, there can be huge mood and behavior issues. #Schools aren't notified during this 2-6wk period, so #disciplinary issues are attributed to the kid being defiant. This can result in #restraint, seclusion, & even #student #arrest. #Foster parents can be manipulated to agree to more restrictive school placements, if there's an #IEP. This just further damages the child's ability to receive an #education. /2 #edutooter
