    1. John Eastman, author of infamous coup memos, is an eminently respectable member of the legal establishment as both a professor and star in The Federalist Society. His role as an advocate for a coup should spark an effort to delegitimize not just him but that establishmenthttps://twitter.com/joshtpm/status/1441004137165041670 …

    If I'm understanding this correctly John Eastman remains a member in good standing of the @FedSoc despite have participated in & actually drawn up a plan for overthrowing the government of the United States with a transparently specious legal 'interpretation'. What am I missing?

        2. The rioters of January 6 are subject to criminal penalties. No such penalties apply to theorists like Eastman who provided the rational for the coup attempt. But surely civil society has the power to sanction and ostracize?

        3. We're already seen civil society sanction in people speaking out about Eastman's upcoming participation in a big political science conference. But I would insist that the sanction should extend beyond Eastman to institutions that support him.https://twitter.com/davekarpf/status/1440861182093508611 …

        Now I’m just a simple country political scientist, but I sure do think the APSA Council has the authority to amend its standing rules and sever ties with the Claremont Institute on account of its leadership actively participating in an attempt to overthrow US electoral democracy.

        4. Something like The Federalist Society has power in part because media liberal legal types, universities & moderate Republicans treat it as legitimate institution, participate in its events, elevate its voice, etc. What if they just didn't?

        5. Any liberal legal bigwig who gets invited to act as token opponent in a Federalist Society debate should ask themselves, "Why am I helping legitimize an institution that supports destroying American democracy?"

        6. What's true of Federalist applies also to Claremont. The Eastman case should be an occasion for asking what role these institutions play in American society and whether they deserve sanction:https://jeetheer.substack.com/p/ostracise-john-eastman?r=bh54&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email&utm_source=twitter …

        Perhaps a certain federal judge, suddenly so publicly proud that his advice ran counter to Eastman’s memo (though he was very silent until the memo became public), could publicly state the Federalist Society is a menace to the rule of law. #butwhataboutthejunkets
