Douglass Mackey, aka “Ricky Vaughn”, Wins Second Circuit Court of Appeals – Dismissing Egregious First Amendment Prosecution


The background of the insufferable case is HERE and HERE.

Today, the second circuit court of appeals finally overturns one of the most ridiculous Obama/Biden dystopian lawfare cases against the first amendment.  Defendant Douglass Mackey wins his appeal and the case is dismissed [RULING HERE]

The ridiculous case was against Douglass Mackey, aka Twitter user Ricky Vaughn, who posted a silly meme against Hillary Clinton in 2016.  The Biden DOJ prosecuted Mackey saying he was part of a conspiracy to rob Clinton of the election, by posting memes of disinformation around the election.

Mackey was tried and convicted in New York; however, finally an appeals court looked at the stupidity of it and ruled in his favor, sending the case back to the lower court for dismissal.

Literally all the guy did was post snarky memes poking fun of democrats and Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election…  However, the United States government claimed: “the defendant exploited a social media platform to infringe one the of most basic and sacred rights guaranteed by the Constitution: the right to vote.”

After the jury remained deadlocked for three days, and after thrice telling the judge they were deadlocked, Judge Ann Donnelly threatened not to release them from duty unless and until they came to a decision on guilt.  The jury in 2023 subsequently found Douglass Mackey, a 33-year-old who went by the name Ricky Vaughn on Twitter and a resident of Florida (insert DeSantis silence here), guilty of creating a meme against the interests of the U.S. government.

The Confirmation of the American Experiment?

Jefferson vs Adams

As the story goes, the famous last words attributed to John Adams on July 4, 1826 (the 50th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence) were:

“Thomas Jefferson survives.”

The profound historical irony was that Jefferson actually died first. Thomas Jefferson died several hours earlier that same day at Monticello on July 4th – the day of American Independence. Adams was unaware that, lying on his deathbed in Quincy, Massachusetts, he had no way of knowing Jefferson had already passed away. His final words reflected his belief that his longtime friend, staunch rival, since Adams was a Federalist, yet both were fellow Founding Fathers, was still alive.

Adams and Jefferson, the 2nd and 3rd Presidents of the United States, were central figures in the American Revolution and the nation’s founding. Their relationship was complex: they were initially close collaborators, then bitter political enemies, and finally reconciled friends through correspondence in their later years. Their deaths on the same day – the 50th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, which they both helped create – was seen by the nation as a divine sign affirming the American experiment.

Adams’ last words, mentioning Jefferson, underscored their intertwined legacies, even in death. The fact that he was mistaken about Jefferson surviving added a layer of poignant irony that captivated the nation. What Adams truly said (Slight Variations), according to eyewitness accounts (like his son John Quincy Adams and others present), reported slight variations, but the core meaning is consistent.

  • “Thomas Jefferson survives.” (Most common version)
  • “Thomas Jefferson still survives.”
  • “Jefferson lives.”

In essence, John Adams’ final thoughts and words were of his fellow Founding Father, Thomas Jefferson, expressing a belief in Jefferson’s continued life that was tragically and poetically incorrect, cementing their shared destiny in American history and memory.

Happy 4th of July

Pentagon Stops Some Promised Munitions for Ukraine

If my data alignment points are accurate, now that the BBB is passed through the Senate we are likely to see some very major geopolitical changes come rushing to the surface.

Keep watching and let’s see if things happen the way we expect.

WASHINGTON DC – The Pentagon has halted shipments of some air defense missiles and other precision munitions to Ukraine due to worries that U.S. weapons stockpiles have fallen too low.

[…] In a statement following the publication of this story, White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly said that the decision “was made to put America’s interests first following a DOD review of our nation’s military support and assistance to other countries across the globe. The strength of the United States Armed Forces remains unquestioned — just ask Iran.”

Included among the items being pulled back are missiles for Patriot air defense systems, precision artillery rounds, Hellfire and other missiles that Ukraine launches from its F-16 fighters and drones.

The losses will surely be felt on the ground as Ukraine continues to beat back fresh assaults by Russian forces. (read more)

In related news not getting attention, French President Emmanuel Macron had a two-hour phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin today.
