They are so mad they cheated and still lost. This country is going to take so long to heal after this. It really makes me sad.
its amazing how much back and forth happens the richer you are in the legal system. one woman accidentally voted twice, straight to jail.
donald trump indicted 3 times, and god knows how many other terrible things . days in jail : 0
2 sets of laws. which one do you think you fall under?
She didn’t even accidentally vote twice, she was sentenced to 8 years for the crime of completing a provisional ballot while the state figured out if she was eligible to vote or not.
We haven't healed from the fucking Civil War. Why would we heal from anything more recent?
Keep digging and guaranteed to find the Russians as well.
The most terrifying thing of all is how almost accepted all this is. None of it is particularly shocking. Hard core Republicans will even justify it, possibly even flaunt it. This is how far down the rabbit hole we've allowed things to get.
Maybe this is why its taking so long. Shes gonna file indictment proceedings against them all?
And this will be state charges.
No presidential pardons for you.
Oh wait.
What if Lyndsay Graham is in there lmao. He called Rathensburger ( I think that's how you spell it) as well.
Graham is up to his ass in this. 20 years ago I thought he was a bigot, but one who had opinions worth listening to on national security and military affairs.
What a sad little wrinkled balloon he turned out to be. Hope his ass gets indicted too.
'Member how Trump and Roger Stone were instrumental in Bush winning in 2000?
What the FUCK?! I was alive when this happened, remembered all the recounts and buzz about how close it is, and this is still literally the first I'm hearing about it. I didn't realize just how disconnected from politics my family and circle was. Now I understand the few grumbles I'd hear over the years about how it "should have been gore" I
How the fuck is it even possible for a political party to steal an election and we all just roll over and take it because the Supreme Court sided with them?
I thought the system was ours to use as we please, not them.
FWIW Bush Jr. was showered with abuse and had eggs thrown at him and he had to abandon the traditional walk to the Capitol at his inauguration, and he was deeply unpopular at the start of his term. Only 911 bailed him out.
But it never should have even gotten that far. The people should have revolted and did the election over again.
Classic Republican playbook, start shit and then project it on the enemy to make them look bad
It's actually an old fascist trick.
It's really effective too. You always know the horrible things you're doing before anyone else. So you can always beat the opposition to the accusation.
"You did X!"
"No I didn't, why would you even think that?"
Months (or years) later when there's an investigation...
"Hey wait, you actually did X!"
"You're obviously making it up, everyone knows it's what you did. People have been talking about you doing it for years!"
If she has a winnable case, the D. is fuuuuuucked.
Only if they also have evidence that the orders for it came from him. Otherwise it is similar to the shit with Michael Cohen: he can claim he expected lawyers to follow the law.
Lock him the fuck up. Also, you better believe that republicans are in some pizza shop basement raping and mutilating kids. Every accusation is a confession. 100% of the time.
💀
I'm shocked! SHOCKED!
Well not that shocked.
Ok now do the Republican Senators that helped the coup like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Boebert etc
Covfefe
Wait... there's a Coffee County in Georgia?
What if he was planning this since 2017, and their code name for the operation was "covfefe"....
There's a whole damn Waffle House of counties.
Early, Cook, Crisp, Bacon, and Coffee are all GA counties.
As a now-westerner, the only explanation I can come up with is that it's a job-creation scheme for crooked sheriffs.
(We got a few of those out here too mind you, seems to go with the job)
How many charges is "Mr. President" going to get?
What exactly was the breach? There is no detail about what data was accessed or who accessed it in the entire article.
