I read this story and I just about died laughing….God Bless Judicial Watch for all they do – what would we do without them?
They’ve done countless amazing things – they’ve stepped up when our own cruddy GOP politicians refuse to do anything…but I think this is my favorite thing they’ve ever done.
The geniuses over at Judicial Watch came up with a brilliant plan. They’re going to sue the mayor of D.C. so they can paint their own message on city streets that says, “Nobody is Above the Law.”

Ha ha ha ha!
Brilliant, right?
This is a direct counter-punch to the D.C. mayor who painted “Black Lives Matter” in the street during the recent “George Floyd” riots.

Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a civil rights lawsuit against DC Mayor Muriel Bowser and other officials for First Amendment violations over their refusal to allow Judicial Watch to paint the message “Because No One Is Above the Law!” on a DC street. (Judicial Watch. v. Muriel Bowser, et al. (No. 1:20-cv-01789)).
On June 5, 2020, after days of protests and riots in Washington, DC, led by the Black Lives Matter organization, Mayor Bowser authorized the painting of “Black Lives Matter” on 16th Street NW, and later authorized or allowed “Defund the Police” to be painted alongside it.
The group sent a letter requesting permission to paint “Because No One is Above the Law!” in the identical size and coloring of the “Black Lives Matter” painting on another DC street near its headquarters near Capitol Hill. Judicial Watch offered to pay for the cost of the painting and, citing the timely nature of the issue, asked for a response in three days.

But, Judicial Watch isn’t done quite yet…
They’ve also sent notices to NYC’s Mayor de Blasio, after he also announced plans to paint “Black Lives Matter” on his city streets. Judicial Watch is also seeking to place their “Nobody is Above The Law” in the Big Apple as well.
