Connecticut bar association warns members not to call Trump conviction 'partisan'

Sub-head: You must not claim this case was a "political prosecution"

Last week members Connecticut Bar Association got a letter signed by that outfit's president, president-elect and vice-president warning members not to criticize the obviously partisan political prosecutions of former President Donald Trump as either partisan or political.

While the letter doesn't directly say the bar association will consider such criticism "unethical conduct," it says criticizing the prosecution as political "has no place in the public discourse," and the executives call on members to publicly support the prosecutions as being totally unbiased.

In case that was too subtle for some to grasp, the letter warns members that "some comments will be viewed as cross[ing] the line from criticism to dangerous rhetoric."

"Dangerous rhetoric," eh?  Sounds like if you said it was political you could easily lose your license to practice law, eh?

According to the rulers of the CBA, it's now "dangerous" to make analogies to Soviet show trials, or to ask how judge Juan Merchan-- whose daughter has helped raise $93 million for the Democrat party--could be allowed to hear this case without recusing himself.

Totally reasonable question, eh?  But if you're an attorney in CT, you can't ask it.

Oh, you thought there was freedom of speech in this country?  Not if you're an attorney in the Dem-ruled cesspool of Connecticut.

The CBA is careful to assure lawyers that they're totally free to criticize, but quickly adds that criticizing the ethics of the judge or the clear political motivations behind the prosecution cases "is dangerous and could spark violence."

If you're a student of history you may have wondered how, after the Bolshevik revolution, perhaps 15% of the population could have so totally subjugated the other 85%.  You see the answer here: The communists had millions of informers, and anyone who complained was quickly arrested--and often executed.

Earlier this year a totalitarian Dem law prof at Georgetown declared, "When the mob is right, some (but not all!) more aggressive tactics are justified."  

Wow.  Perfect fit with the communists--and with today's Democrat totalitarians.  Free speech?  Nah.

The informers/enforcers quickly learned that the Party would reward them for enforcing its policies, for telling Party "political officers" names of those who didn't totally support the Party.

So... in their zeal to prevent any criticism of judges, did CBA officials warn members not to support Democrat attacks on conservative justices on the Supreme Court in which Dems called the justices "partisan hacks" or even "insurrectionist sympathizers"?  Of course not.  Liberal activists have been calling for stopping conservative jurists "by any means necessary."

Even high Dem officials have called for attacks on judges.  For example, Connecticut Democrat senator Richard Blumenthal warned conservative justices to rule correctly or face "seismic changes."  That direct threat didn't worry the heads of the CBA a bit.  Same story when Democrat senate majority leader Chuck Schumer declared--in front of the Supreme Court--"I want to tell you, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price."  No reaction from the CBA.

But NOW, when a clearly biased hack having presided over a clearly sham political prosecution of the Republican presidential candidate, suddenly the enforcers at the CBA are outraged.

My Democrat friends preciously, naively bleat "Dere no pressure here!  Duh CBA jus' wants ta' proteck our precious judicial system!  An' dear leader Schumer, and Blumenthal, nevah sed doze things you claimed!  Nope nope nope!  Duh alleged 'video' of dem sayin' dat is FAKE!  Done by 'AI'!  Joe Scarborough and Rachael Maddow said so!"

SOoo precious.  And you begin to realize how easily a million dumbshit informers can enable 15% of the population to subjugate the other 85%.
