Organized emailing in Alabama seeks to break out of people's Facebook silos and engage with non-likeminded people and "institutions" in order to try to influence Alabama public opinion and voting.
This is to be done by "working" an issue through organized emailing.
The "working" needs a start, and then the same needs to be expanded.
Let me pick the issue of "rule of law" and start work on the same.
First there needs to be a basis of items to work from.
Rule of law
April 6th Facebook post of Guy Rawlings
Guy Rawlings WVTM 13 News
The U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way for a likely dismissal of Steve Bannon’s contempt of Congress conviction tied to the January 6 Capitol attack investigation, sending the case back to a trial judge to consider the Justice Department’s request, supported by the Donald Trump administration, to drop it “in the interests of justice.”
Bannon had been convicted in 2022 for defying a subpoena from the House January 6 Committee and served a four-month prison sentence, so any dismissal would largely be symbolic but would erase the conviction. The move reflects a broader shift by the Justice Department under Trump to unwind prosecutions tied to the Capitol riot probe, which Bannon and allies have long argued was politically driven and entangled in executive privilege disputes.
The precedent it sets is more consequential than the immediate outcome: by allowing the executive branch to abandon enforcement of a congressional subpoena after a conviction, the decision could weaken Congress’s ability to compel testimony in future investigations. It signals that compliance disputes, especially those involving claims of executive privilege, may ultimately hinge less on the courts and more on which administration is in power, potentially making congressional subpoenas harder to enforce and more vulnerable to political reversal.

Subject: Republican Attorney General primary debate held at The Club
Dear Republican Alabama Attorney General candidates Robertson, Mitchell and Casey:
I am developing a strategy of organized emailing as set out at Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Strategy and tactics of organized emailing.
The first issue I am taking up for organized emailing is the rule of law.
You participated in a debate at The Club in Birmingham on March 19th, as reported at GOP Attorney General candidates face off at debate - Alabama Daily News.
I believe this debate can be utilized in starting organized emailing about the rule of law, and I will post this email on my link set forth above.
Alabama Policy Institute's Facebook post about the debate indicates that WBRC 6 News' Jonathan Harbison and 105.5 WERC's JT Nyse were on the debate panel, and they are copied on this email (JT via 105.5 WERC's online contact form), as well as the Alabama Daily News reporter Claire Harrison (via todd@aldailynews.com).
I hope organized emailing will impact the rule of law issue in Alabama.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

Subject: To AL State Bar Executive Council- re organized emailing in AL and rule of law
I am trying to generate organized emailing in Alabama regarding the rule of law. See "Rule of law" in Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Strategy and tactics of organized emailing.
This email to the Alabama State Bar Executive Council is in furtherance of such goal and will be posted in the foregoing link.
To add current grist for conversation, I link a video of Todd Blanche's news conference on Tuesday. WATCH LIVE: Acting Attorney General Blanche holds news conference.
In the news conference, Todd Blanche announced the creation of a National Fraud Enforcement Division and also responded to questions about whether he will be facing additional pressure by Donald Trump to secure indictments against political opponents, saying every case would be investigated "to the fullest extent of the law, using all of the resources we can," including those involving Donald Trump's enemies.
In the news conference, Todd Blanche fulsomely expressed his love for Donald Trump.
If I can get organized emailing going, maybe the Alabama State Bar Executive Council will join in public conversation about Todd Blanche and other matters that concern or should concern Americans about the rule of law.
Thank you.

Subject: Alabama State Bar Bench & Bar Relations Committee, Sen. Tuberville and "corrupt" judges
Dear Judge Johnson,
I am writing to you in your capacity as Chair of the Alabama State Bar Bench & Bar Relations Committee.
U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville says, if he becomes governor, he will be very proactive to reduce crime in Alabama. Tuberville promises to clean up crime in Montgomery if elected governor: Won’t allow Alabamians to ‘live in a war zone’ - NewsBreak.
According to Sen. Tuberville, "corrupt" judges are a significant part of the crime problem, Sen. Tuberville saying “We’re going to go after these corrupt judges that when these people are arrested, they go through the front door and let them out the back door."
Does the Alabama State Bar Bench & Bar Relations Committee have anything to say about what Sen. Tuberville says about "corrupt" judges contributing to the crime problem in Alabama?
I am a retired Alabama lawyer asking the foregoing question.
Also, I am in touch with Alabamians who are not lawyers about this question, one of whom I am copying on this email (in addition to Michael Yaffee of Yellowhammer News, who wrote the linked article).
Thank you for whatever can say in response to this email.
Sincerely,

Dear "reply to all" email recipients:
Millions of Americans have protested in the streets against Donald Trump.
Now, polls indicate that tens of millions of Americans "strongly disapprove" of Donald Trump.
Trump seems unfazed and increasingly hellbent for more power, self-aggrandizement and self-glorification.
We are individually puny and individually can only do puny things against Trump.
Each must do their own puny thing, with a view to all of our puny things adding up to stop Trump.
My puny thing is using, and trying to get others to use, email to expand the national protest against Donald Trump.
I am gratified that, on my original email here, one recipient (Anita Alley) did a "reply to all" email, a recipient of Anita's "reply to all" email (Laurie Beth Kesterson) did a further "reply to all" email, and this has afforded me the opportunity to do this "reply to all" email to Laurie Beth's email.
I would like to think that these "reply to all" emails result in increased attention to the battling that tens of millions of Americans are doing against Donald Trump and that inspires people to participate in the organized emailing I am trying to promote.
Thanks for your consideration here.

Dear recipients of this email:
I have previously introduced myself to this group as a former Republican who voted for Trump in 2016, who quickly turned 100% against him, and who now identifies himself as an independent.
I believe the 2026 midterm elections will ultimately be a national referendum on whether the next Congress should or should not impeach Trump, each Congressional candidate should express their position on that, and voters should cast their votes accordingly.
In Alabama, I am trying to purvey messaging about this by means of organized emailing.
If I may, I solicit you to read my link Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: Strategy and tactics of organized emailing and consider participating with me in organized emailing. Please let me know if you are interested.
For your information, I plan to post this email at the foregoing link. If you prefer that your email address not be shown, please let me know and I will remove you.

Last Saturday I went to the Pepper Place Farmer's Market in Birmingham and spoke to ten to fifteen Birmingham Indivisible people who were doing the Signs of Fascism event there referred to in the below forwarded email.
I gave them my name and telephone number and said I was interested in discussing organized emailing as a way to extend the messaging of street events such as they were having at Pepper Place.
A next step I will take will be to formulate my thoughts about what issues Congressional candidates in Alabama should push in their campaigns, how such issues should be framed, and organized emailing ideas for messaging about the same.
Please provide me any thoughts you have.
Thanks.

Dear Professor Hartog:
Are you (or is anyone else in the Samford history department) in a position to comment publicly about the significance of Justice Department scrubs website of news releases about Jan. 6 defendants | AP News?
This is part of the controversy about whether Trump is trying to rewrite the history of January 6th and how that affects or can affect our democracy, the rule of law, and our governance, politics and elections.
My goal here is to complain to Senators Tuberville and Britt and Congressman Palmer about Trump seeking to rewrite the history of January 6th, and a public comment from someone such as yourself would be very helpful to me.
Thanks for anything you can do here.

There is lots to scream bloody murder about in connection with the 2026 elections.
I am trying to do it, such as indicated at Citizens Acting to End the Trump Presidency: AL Trump resisters and the AL Republican primary elections.
I think it can be more effective if people scream bloody murder together in an organized, coordinated way.
If anyone wants to figure out ways of screaming bloody murder in an organized, coordinated way regarding Tuberville and Wahl, please say so and let's see what we can come up with.

Do any of you feel like saying “Finally, a Republican with some scruples?” Republican Ken McFeeters has challenged the eligibility of Tommy Tuberville to be on the Republican ballot in November for Governor of Alabama. Alabama’s Constitution, Article V, Section 117, requires a gubernatorial candidate to be a "resident citizen" of the state for at least seven years prior to the election. Critics and political opponents have challenged Tuberville's eligibility, alleging he has not continuously maintained his primary residence in Alabama, citing his previous ties and property ownership in Florida.
Tuberville submitted copies of his income tax returns in an attempt to prove his residency, however, this may not be enough for him to qualify. The redacted returns show a “partial” return for 2018, when Tubervile and his wife, Suzanne filed a joint tax return in 2017. Tuberville also voted in Walton County, Florida in 2018. If Tuberville is claiming an Alabama residence in 2017, and voted in Florida in 2018, that is a felony crime. Tuberville didn’t register to vote in Alabama until 2019, about two weeks before he announced his campaign for the United States Senate. Also, some of the income tax copies were “blacked out.” What was Tommy hiding?
The hearing is now set for June 14th, in Birmingham and will be open to the public. Tuberville will be represented by Bert Jordon, a Birmingham attorney who has represented the last three governors of Alabama. Jordan is a strong supporter of the ALGOP in the United States Supreme Court amicus filings related to the congressional district. The Alabama Republican Party is represented by Balch & Bingham LLP who is said to be the most powerful law firm in Alabama.
Round Two is the question of John Wahl. Wahl is the former Chairman of the Alabama Republican Party, who is now running for Lt. Governor of Alabama. But….and this is another big BUT, is Wahl qualified? Wahl was born Nehemiah Ezekiel Wahl and resided in the State of Tennessee. He has a Tennessee issued driver’s license in the name Nehemiah Ezekiel Wahl. Wahl used the name “John Wahl” on official Alabama documents including ethics disclosures that asked for his “full legal name.” In order to vote in Alabama, he presented a fake state employee ID card identifying him as John Wahl, which Wahl admitted that he created himself. The Alabama Secretary of State, John Merrill determined that Wahl’s photo ID was “not a valid ID.” Bill Britt, in an opinion piece for Alabama Political Reporter, alleged in 2026, that Wahl was registered to vote in Tennessee and Alabama at the same time, under two different names. Two secretaries of state in Alabama, and Tennessee have repeated the claims but, there has not been a formal investigation. To vote in one state while residing in another is a felony. The question is, why is John Wahl not being charged with voter fraud?
This within itself is enough to cause anyone to doubt the fairness of our election process. What we have here is the Republicans who are protecting their own. I have no doubt that if Tuberville or Wahl were Democrats, neither of them would have ended up on our ballot for office.

Also, some of the income tax copies were “blacked out.” What was Tommy hiding?
The hearing is now set for June 14th, in Birmingham and will be open to the public. Tuberville will be represented by Bert Jordon, a Birmingham attorney who has represented the last three governors of Alabama. Jordan is a strong supporter of the ALGOP in the United States Supreme Court amicus filings related to the congressional district. The Alabama Republican Party is represented by Balch & Bingham LLP who is said to be the most powerful law firm in Alabama.
Round Two is the question of John Wahl. Wahl is the former Chairman of the Alabama Republican Party, who is now running for Lt. Governor of Alabama. But….and this is another big BUT, is Wahl qualified? Wahl was born Nehemiah Ezekiel Wahl and resided in the State of Tennessee. He has a Tennessee issued driver’s license in the name Nehemiah Ezekiel Wahl. Wahl used the name “John Wahl” on official Alabama documents including ethics disclosures that asked for his “full legal name.” In order to vote in Alabama, he presented a fake state employee ID card identifying him as John Wahl, which Wahl admitted that he created himself. The Alabama Secretary of State, John Merrill determined that Wahl’s photo ID was “not a valid ID.” Bill Britt, in an opinion piece for Alabama Political Reporter, alleged in 2026, that Wahl was registered to vote in Tennessee and Alabama at the same time, under two different names. Two secretaries of state in Alabama, and Tennessee have repeated the claims but, there has not been a formal investigation. To vote in one state while residing in another is a felony. The question is, why is John Wahl not being charged with voter fraud?
This within itself is enough to cause anyone to doubt the fairness of our election process. What we have here is the Republicans who are protecting their own. I have no doubt that if Tuberville or Wahl were Democrats, neither of them would have ended up on our ballot for office.
