Yesterday a #Federal judge barred parts of an insane illegal heavy handed and chilling childlike #DJT #ExecutiveOrder targeting exclusively employees and clients of a large influential #DC #beltway #lawfirm he doesn't like.

Known as #PerkinsCoie , the 100+ yr old firm started in #Seattle and has long represented biz & top tech clients including #Amazon & #Microsoft etc, as well as many other #Fortune500 names .

The #RWNJ #HoiPolloi anger at the firm has to do with the fact #PerkinsCoie attorneys helped commission the embarrassing and disputed #SteeleDossier that included allegations against a failed NJ casino operator turned political candidate.who eventually became President TWICE!

The far reaching petty #policestate and draconian #Drumpf overreach would've made it virtually impossible for #employees or any of the 1000+ #attorneys at the firm to do biz in #DC . The order barred firm partners from even speaking to #federalemployees, or to physically enter any govt #property including #courtrooms etc.

Admittedly i have #trumpderangementsyndrome but i still buy into the #steeledossier. Here's #gift article from #wapo about Steele's new book. As with other #intelligence he himself figures he's 70% accurate. It aligns so well with what is well known about #trump, i suspect he underestimates his own credibility.

#Blanche turns to Aug 2018, when #MichaelCohen decided to cooperate w/the special counsel who was investigating the Trump campaign's possible ties to #Russia.

Cohen is asked about the infamous #SteeleDossier, a compendium of opposition research put together by various people looking to stop Trump in 2016, filled w/salacious allegations. At the time, Cohen was enraged about allegations about him that were in there, which he said were false.

“Former U.S. President Donald Trump has been ordered to pay a six-figure legal bill to a company founded by a former British spy that he unsuccessfully sued for making what his lawyer called “shocking and scandalous” false claims that harmed his reputation.

A London judge, who threw out the case against Orbis Business Intelligence last month saying it was “bound to fail,” ordered Trump to pay legal fees of 300,000 pounds ($382,000), according to court documents released Thursday.”

Ramesh #NotGoingBack

#UK Court rejected #Trump's #GoldenShowers case because the claim had not been brought within 6-year limitation period.

Trump said he had not had time to sue in UK earlier because he had been busy presidenting [& then coup'ing] in #US.

"I did not, at any time engage in perverted sexual behavior including the hiring of prostitutes to engage in 'golden showers'" & #SteeleDossier continued "to cause me significant damage and distress" because people still believed it.

#SteeleDossier is back in the news. So reminder:

1. #Dossier was a work of human intel, not journalism or criminal investigation. Every allegation was qualified, explaining its sourcing

2. Many allegations, e.g Trump campaign had many Russia contacts, proven true

3. Mueller never really investigated Trump/Russia links in dossier. Eg he said Cohen never went to Prague. But he never looked at Cohen's credit cards, phone records, etc. He just took Cohen's word for it. amazon.com/Crime-Progress-Insi

Screenshot from p. 274 of Crime in Progress by Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch says: "The (Mueller) report states Cohen had never traveled to Prague. A footnote cites Cohen's own testimony to Mueller as evidence of this.
