“Plaintiffs the State of Oregon and the City of Portland challenge the federalization and deployment of 200 Oregon National Guardsmen to protect federal property and federal personnel in Oregon. One of the members of Congress representing Plaintiff the City of Portland and Judge Simon’s spouse, Representative Suzanne Bonamici, has interfaced, in her official capacity, with each Defendant on the subject of this suit. She has told Defendants that she ‘reject[s] [the] decision to deploy troops to Portland, Oregon,’ and she ‘demand[ed]… that [they] rescind [their] order.'”
“Representative Bonamici has made factual assertions and offered legal conclusions about the propriety of deploying Guardsmen, suggesting that the deployment would result in ‘violations of law.’ She also participated in and spoke at a press conference with Governor Tina Kotek and Plaintiffs’ other elected officials the day before this lawsuit was filed on the very subject of this suit and is seen standing behind and then next to Governor Kotek in a video that Plaintiffs hyperlink to in their complaint. To be sure, Defendants recognize that Judge Simon and Representative Bonamici speak for themselves, not for each other. Nonetheless, the unique factual, legal, and political role that Judge Simon’s spouse has played in the central events of this lawsuit may create the appearance of partiality. The principles of Section 455 therefore counsel in favor of recusal. The significant public interest in this lawsuit likewise makes it vital that the Court endeavorsto ensure public confidence in the outcome of litigation by removing any possible perception of partiality,” writes the DOJ in a memo pre-excusing a loss in court for the Trump Regime on the Oregon troop deployment.
Simon should say he’ll recuse as soon as every Supreme Court justice who has a spouse who showed support for “Stop the Steal” or if that justice was appointed by the fat fuck automatically recuses from every and any case involving his reich or his personal interest comes before the court.
