Trump doit signer un engagement éthique et des documents de transition

Le président élu Donald Trump n’a toujours pas signé les documents juridiques – notamment un engagement éthique – nécessaires pour entamer officiellement la transition du pouvoir de son administration. Les candidats déposent généralement ces documents bien avant l’élection. En raison de ce retard, le gouvernement ne peut pas fournir d’habilitations de sécurité, de briefings et de ressources à la nouvelle équipe de Trump avant qu’il ne prête serment le 20 janvier.

Associated Press: Group: N.C. request for redistricting rehearing ‘frivolous’

Hilary Klein, an attorney for Common Cause, wrote that the rehearing petition is “frivolous.” She referred specifically to House Speaker Tim Moore’s public statement that another look at the cases was needed because the “people of North Carolina sent a message election day” to reject the ruling of the “outgoing (judicial) majority.”

The petition “is therefore motivated by improper purpose and grossly lacking in the requirements of propriety,” Klein wrote.

Plain Dealer/Cleveland.com: Corporate jets, bribes and dark money: Householder trial spotlights weaknesses in Ohio ethics laws

Catherine Turcer, executive director of the good-government group Common Cause Ohio, said it’s “astonishing” that lawmakers have yet to take up any reforms in response to the Householder scandal.

“It’s clear to me that the people in power like the structure that we have right now, and that they’re benefitting from the lack of transparency,” Turcer said. ...

Turcer said there’s a public interest in limiting lawmakers’ and other politicians’ ability to accept trips on private jets.

Salon: “Groyper” guru Nick Fuentes returns to Twitter (briefly): Hateful content keeps flowing

Yosef Getachew, a media and democracy program director at Common Cause, said allowing a blatantly bigoted and disruptive user like Fuentes back on Twitter sends a clear signal that the platform is failing to enforce its own policies, he added.

"You're creating an environment where users may feel threatened, harassed or attacked, or you could be inciting others to engage in offline violence," Getachew said. "That's essentially how the [Jan. 6] insurrection started, given that millions of users were exposed to harmful content and...

Irresponsible Greed Drives Facebook to Restore Trump’s Account

Facebook has once again missed the opportunity to be the adult in the room when it comes to checking the clear and present danger that Donald Trump poses to the nation on social media. Instead, the company and its founder Mark Zuckerberg decided to try to plunge headlong into a race to the bottom with Elon Musk and Twitter, irrespective of the threat to public safety and national security.

Pennsylvania Capital-Star: Looking to solve a Harrisburg problem, Pa. House Speaker Rozzi turns to Pittsburgh for advice

Khalif Ali, executive director of the good government group Common Cause Pennsylvania, told Rozzi his organization is concerned about the way legislators have attempted to use amendments to the state constitution.

“The constitutional amendment process was never meant to be used as a means to advance vetoed and failed legislation, or to punish the court for decisions that weren’t favorable to a party’s agenda,” Ali said.

He pointed to Senate Bill 106, a multi-pronged constitutional amendment package,...

Tampa Bay Times: Tampa election first locally to test new absentee ballot law

“Tampa is a huge city. A major city and it’s one of the first (to deal with the new law),” said Amy Keith, program director for Common Cause Florida, a branch of the national voting rights and government accountability organization.

The extra step required to request a mail ballot for each election makes accessing a ballot harder, especially for the disabled, elderly, working poor and other groups, Keith said.

“It makes it harder to participate, for people to have their voice heard and have a say,” Keith...

Texas Tribune/Houston Chronicle: Two years after Texas’ voting rights showdown gripped the nation, lawmakers again push dozens of elections bills

“Looking back over the past few legislative sessions, there have been repeated attempts to find creative ways to prosecute people for what really looks like an honest mistake,” said Anthony Gutierrez, executive director of Common Cause Texas, a nonpartisan organization that advocates for policies such as online voting registration and ending gerrymandering. “There’s no infrastructure to tell people what the process is for when you can vote again [after release from prison] or how you can vote again.”

« Nous avons légalisé la corruption dans notre système de financement des campagnes électorales », a déclaré Catherine Turcer, directrice exécutive de Common Cause Ohio et défenseure de longue date du financement des campagnes électorales et de la réforme gouvernementale dans l’Ohio. « Cette affaire prouve que nous avons essentiellement préparé le terrain pour que les habitants de l’Ohio soient exploités. Et ils l’ont été. »

Le danger que représente Trump sur les réseaux sociaux n’a pas diminué depuis le 6 janvier

Il serait dangereusement irresponsable pour les plateformes de médias sociaux de restaurer les comptes de Donald Trump et de risquer de propager davantage de désinformation, de discours de haine et de violence dans le monde réel. L'ancien président s'est révélé être un danger clair et présent sur les médias sociaux le 6 janvier – et en fait bien avant ce jour tristement célèbre. Il a utilisé Twitter, Facebook et d'autres plateformes pour rassembler et inciter la foule d'insurgés qui ont pris d'assaut le Capitole ce jour-là, avec des résultats tragiques et mortels.

"It is absolutely integral that the administration has a transparent and honest line of communication with Arizona and Arizona voters, as well as the different (news) outlets across the state, in order to ensure that Arizonans are able to access that information," said Jenny Guzman, program director for Common Cause Arizona, a government accountability group that launched its office in the Grand Canyon State this month.
