James Lawrence, a lawyer involved with the Douglass Mackey case, explains how a social media influencer who posted an anti-Hillary Clinton meme during the 2016 election was prosecuted by the Biden Department of Justice and sentenced to jail.
Conservative social media influencer Douglass Mackey, also known as Ricky Vaughn, was convicted of election interference in the 2016 presidential race after posting a satirical meme on Twitter.
The government’s confidential witness in its attempt to put a right-wing meme maker in jail is making stuff up. That seems to be the conclusion reached by both congressional Republicans and a left-wing journalist, Luke O’Brien, who said the witness was “full of it.”
James Lawrence, a lawyer representing Douglass Mackey, said the ACLU is “nowhere to be found” regarding the DOJ’s prosection of his client.
