To Alabama TV station political reporters:
I have identified you from recent articles appearing on Alabama TV station websites as your seeming to be political reporters at your TV stations.
The object of this email is to initiate an exercise to try to get hard questions asked of and answered by Alabama Congressional candidates in the November general election.
To that end, I will look at candidates' "Issues" pages on their campaign websites and at interviews of the candidates that have been done and that are hereafter done by Alabama TV station political reporters.
I will send follow up emails to you discussing questions that you have asked or you hereafter ask candidates and in which I make comments on such questions and suggest other questions that I think should be asked of the candidates.
In doing this, I am copying Alabama Congressional candidates on this email and will copy them on further emails I send.
My exercise here may get extended to candidates for Alabama governor, Alabama attorney general and Alabama secretary of state.
My emails will be filed in Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Alabama TV stations and the mad rush to Nov. 3rd.
If you wish not to receive my emails, please tell me and I will remove you from my email list.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

To Alabama TV political reporters:
In your mad rush to November 3rd, I think you should think about the following quoted highlights from the article Alabama 2nd Congressional District race could have national implications | Alabama Reflector, relative to the shaping of questioning you will endeavor with Congressional (and the "big 4" state office) candidates you are covering:

In his victory speech Tuesday night, Marques said it is important to flip the seat in order to prevent the progressive wing of the Democratic party – like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York and Zohran Mamdani, the mayor of New York City – from taking over.
“My opponent, who will be coming up in the fall, he will not only prop them up, he will caucus with them, and he’s going to vote with them,” he said. “Make no mistake about it. The Democrats stay together, and that is scary.”
Figures said in an interview Wednesday evening that there is no basis for that statement of characterization of him or his fellow Democrats.
“I consider myself to be the type of member that’s representing the state of Alabama, that’s representing District 2. What we do every single day is put the people and interests and needs of this district first and foremost,” he said. “Whether they are from our rural areas or whether they’re from our city centers, whether it’s issues to help our farmers or issues to help people who need to keep the hospital in their communities open, that’s what we do. That’s what we focus on, and that’s what we prioritize.”
Rep. Scott Stadthagen, R-Hartselle, chair of the Alabama Republican Party, echoed the anti-progressive sentiment of Marques in a statement Tuesday night.
“The [Democratic] candidates running for congressional seats and their gubernatorial nominee, Doug Jones, embrace the values of liberal extremist states like Massachusetts, California, and New York, while our entire Republican slate stands tall for commonsense, conservative Alabama values,” he said.
* * * * *
Although Marques has Trump’s endorsement, Singleton is confident Figures has a chance. According to polling conducted by YouGov and analyzed by The Economist, Trump is broadly unpopular with Alabama residents, though he maintains a positive rating among 2024 voters.
“President Trump is not going to have to run this race. Rep. Marques is going to have to run this race,” Singleton said. “To have President Trump on his side, it’s a good thing for us.”

Thank you.

To Alabama TV political reporters:
In the mad rush to November 3rd, I have been on Facebook trying to instigate interest (or at least trying to ascertain the degree of interest) of those who are politically active on Facebook, as regards Alabama TV political reporters asking hard questions of candidates.
I regret to say I have received little indication of interest from those to whom I have communicated as regards Alabama TV political reporters asking hard questions of candidates.
I will keep this up for a while and see if there is any change in the reactions (or lack of reaction) of those who are politically active on Facebook to whom I direct communications about this.

To Alabama TV political reporters:
This is a continuation of Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Alabama TV stations and the mad rush to Nov. 3rd.
As an Alabama lawyer (retired), I have been frankly obsessed with the rule of law and whether lawfare is destroying the rule of law.
Having been unable to interest the Alabama State Bar and other leaders in the Alabama legal profession to speak publicly to Alabamians about the rule of law, I have gone to the length of sending the below email to former United States Attorneys General Bill Barr and Merrick Garland, inviting them to come to Alabama to discuss lawfare.
Besides emailing University of Alabama President Peter Mohler and the Dean of the law school William Brewbaker, I have emailed the Alabama business community about this per Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Invitation to Bill Barr & Merrick Garland to come to AL to discuss lawfare.
Besides urging you to ask hard questions of Congressional candidates about the rule of law, I urge you ask the persons who are copied on this email, and who are Alabamians in positions of influence in the law, education and business, what they think is happening to the rule of law in the United States.
Thanks.

Subject: Invitation to The Hon. Bill Barr & Merrick Garland to come to Alabama to discuss lawfare
Dear Mr. Barr (via Contact - Torridon Law) and Mr. Garland:
On Friday, in announcing his decision to vote to confirm Todd Blanche as Attorney General of the United States, Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana said,
“I’m particularly concerned about episodes of apparent lawfare, DOJ bringing suits against political enemies, both parties, presidents of both parties have been guilty of this. It must stop.” Sen. Bill Cassidy will support Todd Blanche attorney general nomination
I think many Alabamians would like to know how bad lawfare is in the United States, how the lawfare can be stopped, and, in their voting decisions in the 2026 elections, possibly take into account what individual Alabama Congressional candidates will do to stop lawfare if they are elected.
To that end, I invite the two of you, as former Attorneys General of the United States when "apparent" lawfare was conducted, to come to Alabama to discuss the same.
To find a venue for a discussion, I am copying on this email the President of the Alabama State Bar, the President and Dean of the law school of the University of Alabama, the President and Dean of the law school of Samford University, the President of the Business Council of Alabama, and the President of the Alabama Broadcasters Association.
I very much hope that this requested discussion can be brought about in Alabama.
Even if the two of you are not in a position to come to Alabama for such a discussion, I hope you may signal to me your belief that much discussion about lawfare, and what can be done to stop it, should take place in Alabama and elsewhere in the United States in connection with the 2026 elections.
Thank you.

Dear Judge Burke:
This email is in follow up to my Saturday email to you about my drafting a statement (related to the condition of the rule of law in the United States) that I would hand carry into the courthouse and would deliver to the individual offices of Chief Judge Madeline H. Haikala Judge Annemarie Carney Axon Judge Liles C. Burke Judge Corey L. Maze Judge Anna M. Manasco Judge Harold D. Mooty, III Judge Edmund G. LaCour Jr. Senior Judge Sharon L. Blackburn Senior Judge C. Lynwood Smith, Jr. Senior Judge R. David Proctor."
In my Saturday email I asked whether you would spare me having to hand carry the statement into the courthouse and delivering it to the individual offices of the judges, by my emailing the statement to you and your arranging for it to be delivered and/or forwarded to the other judges.
Yesterday, I sent the below email to former United States Attorneys General Bill Barr and Merrick Garland inviting them to come to Alabama to discuss the rule of law.
I am going to avail of such below email, plus this email, to constitute the statement I wish to deliver to the judges in question (including yourself).
Moreover, I am going to leave it up to you whether to forward this email to the other judges or not, and I am not going to bother with coming to the courthouse to deliver this email (and the below email) personally to the other judges' office if you choose not to forward this email to them.
After I send this email, I will post this email at Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Invitation to Bill Barr & Merrick Garland to come to AL to discuss lawfare to help continue my pressing of the Alabama State Bar and other Alabama parties to speak publicly to Alabamians about what is happening to the rule of law in the United States.
Thank you very much for receiving my emails and for any forwarding to the other judges you do of this email (and the below email).

Subject: AL Sec'y of State election: From 2020 elections to 2026 elections, and afterwards
Dear Wayne Rogers and Caroleene Dobson:
You are announced Democratic and Republican candidates for Alabama Secretary of State.
Five years after the 2020 election, and facing the 2026 elections, the United States is immensely roiled by Donald Trump continuing to say the 2020 election was "rigged" and by his (Trump's) seeking to rewrite the history of January 6th, 2021, to protect himself personally and politically, including from the Democrats winning the 2026 elections.
I cannot find if current Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen has a public position that he believes or does not believe that the 2020 election was rigged, as Donald Trump contends.
Secretary Allen has been going on for some time about "election integrity," and I have endeavored to challenge Secretary Allen about this as set out at Be An Alabama Rootstriker* with Rob Shattuck: What should Americans do about election integrity?.
With the November 3, 2026, election day getting closer, I think political hatreds and animosities are growing in the United States, with a significant contributing factor being Trump's inflammatory contentions about the 2020 election being rigged and about the violent January 6th protesters being patriots.
I would say there is no telling what political conflagration will or will not happen in the United States prior to November 3, 2026 or afterwards, and that parties having standing and influence should try to tamp down the inflamed condition of the American electorate, particularly connected with the 2020 election and January 6th, 2021.
I think you, as candidates for Alabama Secretary of State, should tell Alabamians (1) whether you believe the 2020 election was "rigged" as Donald Trump says; (2) what you think Wes Allen, as the current Alabama Secretary of State, should say or do to try to help tamp down (or not) the inflaming that Trump is doing regarding the 2020 election and regarding January 6th, 2021; and (3) what you will do and say (or not say or do) related to the same (if you are elected Alabama Secretary of State).
I am copying on this email Secretary Allen and persons with whom I communicated or tried to communicate in 2023 as shown in Be An Alabama Rootstriker* with Rob Shattuck: What should Americans do about election integrity?.
Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I hope the two of you will speak publicly as I am urging.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck
Mountain Brook

Next, please see my July17th Facebook post of the national League of Women Voters press release League of Women Voters Strongly Denounces President Trump’s False Claims About Election Security in National Address | League of Women Voters and asking, "Do you think the League of Women Voters of the US has a good, non-partisan reputation that it would be worthwhile to spread in Alabama their press release?" "League of Women Voters Strongly Denounces President Trump’s False Claims About Election Security in National Address"? Numerous comments I put on the post indicate my efforts to spread the press release in Alabama.

Dear League of Women Voters of Mobile:
The national League of Women Voters issued the press release League of Women Voters Strongly Denounces President Trump’s False Claims About Election Security in National Address | League of Women Voters.
As the below forwarded correspondence with the League of Women Voters of Alabama indicates, I am trying to spread the press release in Alabama.
On its Facebook the League of Women Voters of Alabama is urging that Senators Tuberville and Britt be called and told to vote NO on the Save Act.
On July 17th, Caroleene Dobson, Republican candidate for Alabama Secretary of State, posted on her Facebook, "The evidence is CLEAR — we need common sense election security in every state, and we need it now. SECURE OUR ELECTIONS NOW!!! Pass the SAVE Act!"
I think League of Women Voters of Alabama and League of Women Voters of Mobile should publicize to Alabama TV stations and their viewers how opposite Caroleene Dobson is from the two Alabama Leagues of Women Voters regarding the SAVE Act and that Alabama voters should consider that in their voting decisions in November.
I further think that Wayne Rogers, the Democratic candidate for Alabama Secretary of State, should be involved with the publicizing.
For more information about the spreading in Alabama of the League of Women Voters press release, please look at my July 17th Facebook post and its comments.
If the League of Women Voters of Alabama and League of Women Voters of Mobile think I can help in publicizing this matter to Alabama TV stations and their viewers, please contact me.
Thank you.

Yesterday I added to my July 17th Facebook post a comment that linked the Hands Off Our Vote Initiative that is at https://indivisible.org/events/hands-off-our-vote-2/ and that tagged Dobson for Alabama Wayne Rogers for Secretary of State saying, "You need to debate the press release of the national League of Women Voters that is posted here and also the Hands Off Our Vote Initiative."

Was United States Senator Lindsey Graham a decent person?

Yesterday I was putting forth that Ammie Akin, who is running for Congress in the Alabama 7th Congressional district (Facebook), seemed a decent person to me, together with questions I had for her to please consider answering.

These questions were:
1. Should Alabama voters, in deciding whether to vote for you for the governmental leadership position and office you are seeking, consider relevant your views about anything concerning Donald Trump? What, if anything, do you wish to say to Alabama voters about Donald Trump?
2. What is your opinion of Donald Trump's honesty (or dishonesty) and truthfulness (or untruthfulness), compared to the honesty (or dishonesty) and truthfulness (or untruthfulness) of other politicians? How you think your opinion about Trump's honesty (or dishonesty) and truthfulness (or untruthfulness) will affect the opinion of Alabama voters about your own honesty and truthfulness.
3. Do you think Donald Trump foments anger, hate and division in the country? If so, do you approve of Donald Trump doing that? If you do not approve, will you say publicly you do not approve, and, if you are elected to the office you are seeking, will you do anything to try to reduce the anger, hate and division that Donald Trump foments.
4. Do you think Donald Trump has wrongfully weaponized the Department of Justice against his political opponents and against others who disagree with Trump? Do you see any risk of the Alabama Governor, Lt. Governor or Attorney General doing similarly with district attorneys and other law enforcement in Alabama?
5. Do you think Donald Trump has wrongfully used the Presidency to profit himself, his family and his friends? What assurances can you give Alabama voters that you will not wrongfully use the governmental office you are seeking to profit yourself, your family and your friends if you are elected?
6. Do you think Donald Trump can be trusted not to use his Anti-Fraud Task Force to target political opponents and other parties who support Trump's political opponents, and to be sparing with parties who are supportive of Trump? If you think that Trump cannot be so trusted with his Anti-Fraud Task Force, what will you do to try to change that if you are elected to the office you are seeking?
7. Do you think Trump has wrongfully abused his Presidential powers in how he has punished or threatened or otherwise economically coerced law firms, educational institutions, TV networks and other parties for the purpose of diminishing, silencing, or otherwise harming those parties, in order to advance Trump's personal and political interests?
8. Do you think Trump can be trusted not to use ICE wrongfully against Trump's political opponents, wrongfully to foment fear in the populace or wrongfully to interfere in the 2026 elections?
9. Do you think Trump is wrongfully corrupting the economy in how he awards commercial contracts and does other things related to the economy that favors corporations and other parties who support Trump personally and politically and that disfavors corporations and other parties who do not support Trump personally and politically?

The sudden death of United States Senator Lindsey Graham has shifted me this morning to ask, "Was Lindsey Graham a decent person?"

ON FACEBOOK

1. A Facebook friend of mine answered my question by saying, "NO, No he was not. The definition of a false prophet." In a reply comment, I said this to the friend, "I am trying to highlight the following: How much do decent people go into politics? How do decent people who go into politics keep their decency if they win elections and serve in office? How do voters tell which politicians and elected officials are decent people and which politicians and elected officials are indecent people? Do voters care about the extent to which their politicians and elected officials are decent or indecent people?"
2. Also on Facebook, I asked, "How should Alabama Congressional candidates message about Lindsey Graham? Clyde For Congress Amanda Pusczek for Alabama Lee McInnis for Alabama Jacob Bouma-Sims Keith Pilkington Maurice Mercer Ammie Akin for Congress Andrew Sneed for Congress David Wayne Perry"

3. A Facebook friend, who is also a personal friend, commented, "Shame on you. He served this country tirelessly and hasn’t been gone 12 hours. How can you let your hate for Trump destroy your compassion and empathy." I replied to this friend, "As indicated, yesterday I was putting out that Ammie Akin for Congress seemed a decent person, together with questions for her to consider answering. I have elaborated on the matter of decency with four questions I have asked in another comment here, to wit: How much do decent people go into politics? How do decent people who go into politics keep their decency if they win elections and serve in office? How do voters tell which politicians and elected officials are decent people and which politicians and elected officials are indecent people? Do voters care about the extent to which their politicians and elected officials are decent or indecent people?" In my view, central to the decency of politicians is how much they selfishly desire power for themselves and what they will do to gain, maintain and increase such power regardless of how much damage and harm they inflict on their society and its governance. Per Samuel Johnson, the prospect of death concentrates wonderfully the mind, and Lindsey Graham's death perhaps will concentrate the minds of many politicians as to what their own legacy will be as regards what they were willing to do to gain, maintain and increase their power regardless of how much damage and harm they inflicted on their society and its governance. If United States Senator Lindsey Graham was a decent person, I don't think he would object to, and would even find laudable, what this lowly citizen is attempting on the occasion of his death."

Dear New York State Bar Association Executive Director Suchocki:
I am a retired lawyer in Alabama.
The announcement of the New York State Bar Association's sponsorship of a Rule of Law Rally today in Foley Square Park in New York City (https://nysba.org/new-york-state-bar-association-sponsors-rule-of-law-rally-june-16/) says:
"Advancing the rule of law is one of the key pillars of our mission. As lawyers we have a special duty to ensure that the law governs everyone equally and courts and lawyers operate independently."
I think the Alabama State Bar has fallen woefully short recently in the mission of advancing the rule of law and fallen short in its special duty to ensure that the law governs everyone equally and courts and lawyers operate independently.
I have attempted much communication to the Alabama State Bar about this and have been ignored.
I am communicating in Alabama about the Rule of Law Rally that is being held in New York City today in order to do what I can to advance the rule of law and to fulfill my special duty to ensure that the law governs everyone equally and courts and lawyers operate independently.
Thank you.

Dear Trussville Chamber of Commerce:
On his Facebook, Alabama 6th Congressional district candidate Maurice Mercer posted about his attending Coffee & Contacts at the Trussville Chamber of Commerce yesterday.
Candidate Mercer expressed:

"it’s important to me to hear not only from residents, but also from the business community. Small businesses create jobs, drive innovation, and help shape the future of our communities. I want to listen and understand their ideas, opportunities, and wins to ensure I know the issues affecting our district and local economy."

I am trying to elevate the Rule of Law in the Alabama 2026 general elections as indicated at Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Rule of Law in Alabama 2026 general elections.
I think the Rule of Law is, or should be, extremely important to the Alabama business community. Further I think Donald Trump is doing great damage to the Rule of Law in ways that are harmful to the business community, and Trump needs to be stopped.
In the Rule of Trump (as opposed to the Rule of Law), the corruption of Trump is becoming monumental in exchanges that go on between Trump and other parties, including foreign parties, in which Trump and the Trump family receive financial benefits from the other parties, and the other parties receive governmental actions from Trump that the other parties desire.
This Rule of Trump extends to other parties not opposing anything Trump does, out of fear of Trump's power to punish the other parties, including by using the Department of Justice against the other parties.
I am in the 6th Congressional district, and I desire to agitate the six Congressional candidates (Maurice Mercer, Keith Pilkington, Case Dixon, Ashtyn Kennedy, Gary Palmer and Jacob Bouma-Sims) about the Rule of Law and Trump corruption, as well as agitate local chambers of commerce and other local parties.
Accordingly, I am copying the six Congressional candidates on this email.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

Subject: Birmingham Bar Association Fw: Maurice Mercer, Trussville Chamber of Commerce, and Rule of Law
Dear Birmingham Bar Association Executive Director Wilson:
I am a retired lawyer in the 6th Congressional district.
I am trying to agitate the six Congressional candidates (Maurice Mercer, Keith Pilkington, Case Dixon, Ashtyn Kennedy, Gary Palmer and Jacob Bouma-Sims) about the Rule of Law and Trump corruption, as well as agitate local chambers of commerce and other parties about the same.
Forwarded here are two emails I have sent to the Trussville Chamber of Commerce and the Vestavia Hills Chamber of Commerce for my purpose.
This is a further email to my purpose.
Here's hoping the Birmingham Bar Association is agitated about the Rule of Law and Trump corruption.
Thanks.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

Subject: Shoals Chamber and Phillip W. Williams Jr., new U.S. Attorney for ND of Alabama
Dear Shoals Chamber of Commerce President Burns:
I am a busybody, retired Alabama lawyer.
I am trying to avail of Donald Trump's installing Phillip W. Williams Jr. as the new U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama as a basis for instigating debate in Alabama at this point in the 2026 elections about Trump corruption, the rule of law, and weaponization of the Department of Justice by Trump. See Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Phillip W. Williams Jr., new U.S. Attorney for ND of Alabama.
The Alabama business community has, or should have, an interest in the extent to which Trump is corrupting the American economy by Trump's using the Presidency to profit himself and his family, by Trump's business dealings with foreign entities and having the Federal government acquire stakes in business corporations, and by Trump's awarding Federal contracts to parties as Trump chooses.
Such corruption of the American economy by Trump goes on by Trump turning the United States Department of Justice into Trump's private law firm.
Whether Trump's corruption will or will not be stopped by the courts is playing out. Donald Trump slams courts after Kennedy Center ruling, vows to fight 'rigged' system.
The complicity of the Republicans in Congress in Trump's corruption is a huge factor, and the 2026 elections will be the ultimate opportunity for voters to be a check on Trump's corruption in our government of "checks and balances." (May such "check" be manifested by the voters in the Alabama 4th Congressional district voting against Robert Aderholt in November.)
You may wonder why I have chosen the Shoals Chamber of Commerce to whom to send this email.
I have previously done emailing to Alabama chambers of commerce to try to raise concerns about Trump. See particularly the August 8, 2025, email I sent to Alabama chambers of commerce that is posted at Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: How fearful of Trump is the Alabama business community?.
I have gotten no response to this previous emailing to Alabama chambers of commerce, and such has contributed to my picking the Shoals Chamber of Commerce for this email. (Lucky you, hunh?!)
Thank you for any attention you give to this email.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

Dear Alabama State Bar Executive Council:
At 12:08 am eastern time this morning, Trump posted on his Truth Social https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/116678544710349966, which reads:

When a Star Witness totally recants, and in every way reveals that he was pressured and coerced to give testimony, and when the Prosecutor admits that this Witness was the single reason that the case was brought, there was no other, how can that Case not be immediately dismissed? That is exactly what happened in the Democrat New York Attorney General and Manhattan District Attorney’s Hoaxes against me. Michael Cohen has come out and unequivocally stated that the Radical Left Prosecutors, Tish James and Alvin Bragg, pressured and coerced him to testify against your favorite President, ME, when they made him the key player in their Political Witch Hunts. Now that his testimony is wiped away, and the unAmerican, Political Charade “Cases” are even further discredited, they should be put out of their misery, and dismissed, once and for all. Our Constitution, and the Rule of Law, demand immediate and swift dismissal, as well as for the Perpetrators of the Radical Left Lawfare and Weaponization to be held criminally responsible for their terrible misdeeds. We have to restore Confidence and Honor in our Justice System. I am an innocent man who has been horribly treated. Hopefully the Courts will do what everyone knows should be done. Thank you! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Thanks for your attention.
