The resignation announcement comes less than a week after the Uvalde City Council released the findings of the independent report it commissioned to investigate the actions of Uvalde police officers who responded to the May 24, 2022, mass shooting at Robb Elementary School. The investigation determined none of the initial five Uvalde police officers who responded to the shooting violated policy or committed serious acts of misconduct, which devastated and outraged victims’ families who attended the hearing.
All of those are symptoms of Harlow V Fitzgerald (1982). That’s when the SCOTUS was unknowingly handed an illegally revised statute, namely §1983 of the Federal Code. The reconstruction Congress of 1871 passed section 1983 specifically to strip all immunities from all politicians, judges, cops, and prosecutors, no matter where those immunities had come from. (Little hint, the Southern states gave those jobs exclusively to white people, and then made them totally immune from consequences.) In 1874 an unnamed clerk of the Congress was tasked with copying The Congressional Record of 1871 into the Federal Register. That clerk illegally removed a 16 word clause from the law, creating the confusion in the ruling of Harlow V Fitzgerald more than 100 years later.

Hopefully this can be raised on April 25th, and we can get that ruling overturned.
