[W:#394]Judge rules Trump's efforts to overturn election likely criminal

[Paradoxical]

This thread isn't about BLM and Antifa.

The comparison is that the libs said rioting, looting was largely peaceful and so was the 1/6 event. Sorry you hate the truth.

 

[tres borrachos]

It is scary that they live in such delusion.

Trump's Panty Sniffers will hold the torch for their cult leader until they day they die.

 

[Rexedgar]

Of course there is a comparison. There was violence and destruction of federal property by both sides during protests. In fact, it's not a hard arguement to make there was considerally more violence and damage caused by Leftist protesters.

The OP has bupkis to do with any protests!

This thread is about a judge ruling on the events of January 6 and Trump's efforts to stop the election from being certified. Not BLM and Antifa. Sorry you apparently can't read the OP and understand it.

This thread isn't about BLM and Antifa.

It's the red flag.

 

[BlueTex]

If this goes to the Supreme Court will Thomas recuse himself if they accept the case? My bet is Roberts will try and keep it out of the court.

It's never going to the supreme court...

 

[dobieg]

So, insurrection, overthrowing the government, threatening to hang the VP, etc was the same as a BLM protest.

Wow, what a wall of cognitive dissonance you have to build every day to live in your delusion.

The delusion is making the repeated absurd claim painting the thousands of peaceful protesters there that day as somehow tied to the intent of a handful of nutjobs who were in no way a threat to overhrow our government.

 

[BlueTex]

Unless you are a liberal. See any denouncements of the rioting, looting and killing by BLM and Antifa in Seattle and elsewhere? Nope. Just praise heaped on them by kamala.

Liberals know the difference between the laws and jurisdiction in Seattle and the laws and jurisdiction of the capitol grounds.

 

[Chomsky]

This thread isn't about BLM and Antifa.

It is when they don't want to face the somber reality of what Trump has done.

 

[BlueTex]

Of course there is a comparison. There was violence and destruction of federal property by both sides during protests. In fact, it's not a hard arguement to make there was considerally more violence and damage caused by Leftist protesters.

Too bad those who entered the capitol are facing federal prosecutors who know the difference between crimes on the capitol grounds and crimes on other federal property.

 

[BlueTex]

Even with the 1/6 thing, they are going to take the biggest bath in history. I think even many liberals see through the canard of blaming Republicans for a largely peaceful event that got out of hand.

And you thought Trump was going to win by a landslide instead being crushed in an avalanche...

 

[BlueTex]

It has NOT been classified as an insurrection. WHERE do you get this from? One guy making a statement to hang Pence is NOT tens of thousands planning some overthrow.

Is there an official classification department somewhere who classifies these things?

 

[Chomsky]

The comparison is that the libs said rioting, looting was largely peaceful and so was the 1/6 event. Sorry you hate the truth.

Biden denounced the BLM rioting, as he denounced Trump promoting insurrection and taking part in it.

Did they stop a proceeding of congress?

That 'handful' is what? 800, & counting? That's not exactly a 'handful'. And that's only the ones identified & charged . . .

Are conservatives suppose to be shocked a Californian liberal judge so far Left that he was actually overturned by the radically Left Ninth cirrcuit Court made this ruling against Trump?

That judge is saying what all non-cultists already know and accept as the truth.

Interesting.

The judge ruled that ten of the documents in the subset were privileged and should be withheld, but ordered Eastman to turn over the other 101 records to congressional investigators.

Judge rules Trump's efforts to overturn election likely criminal — The Hill

Former President Trump and his legal adviser, John Eastman, likely committed multiple federal crimes in their effort to prevent Congress from certifying President Biden's 2020 election victory, a federal judge ruled on Mo

apple.news

"If Dr. Eastman and President Trump’s plan had worked, it would have permanently ended the peaceful transition of power, undermining American democracy and the Constitution," Carter continued. "If the country does not commit to investigating and pursuing accountability for those responsible, the Court fears January 6 will repeat itself."


Still a civil proceeding at this time.

I don't see the above ruling as a smoking gun...

At the end of the article the judge concluded,

"More than a year after the attack on our Capitol, the public is still searching for accountability," the judge wrote. "This case cannot provide it. The Court is tasked only with deciding a dispute over a handful of emails. This is not a criminal prosecution; this is not even a civil liability suit. At most, this case is a warning about the dangers of 'legal theories' gone wrong, the powerful abusing public platforms, and desperation to win at all costs."

I wish this administration would just get on with things, arrest Trump, charge him, find him guilty and have him hung in front of the Capitol. Then, maybe, we could move on to something more important like rounding up all his supporters and having them hung too. If we hang enough Trump supporters then, maybe, we can finally have freedom and democracy and everybody will feel good about themselves again...as long as nobody else gets out of line and has some rogue idea on what "freedom" entails.

Trumpists are the biggest most victimized victims ever. Trumpists have it so bad that even when he was up there on the cross, Jesus actually thanked himself that he didn't make himself a Trumpist.

It's actually about the absurd double standard in the way the protests over the summer and the one on 1/6 were treated that's the issue but when the whole ****ing world is viewed through the prism of Trump I guess that's to be expected.

The absurdity is that you think that is a real comparison.

I don't think he does think it is a real comparison. All that's important is that it simultaneously attacks the left, martyrs Trumpists and in doing so functions as self-puffery.

That it is bullshit on its face is a plus: the ugly stupidity of it might annoy a liberal, and that counts for five points in the Trumpist book.

Where do you get the “smoking gun” reference from?

 

[TurtleDude]

Biden denounced the BLM rioting, as he denounced Trump promoting insurrection and taking part in it.

He denounced it after he-or more likely his handlers-realized his earlier support for it was hurting his chances of being the Puppet in Chief

That post just sounds like typical grievance whining.

When one is not constrained by integrity, the sky is the limit when it comes to self delusion.

It's irrelevant. How many BLM rioters were wearing Biden shirts and rioting in his name?

What is the difference between that and the thousands of BLM protesters who were nonviolent? Protests, unfortunately, seem to have two factions, the peaceful protesters AND the violent, law breaking jerks. In both the events of the 6th AND the BLM protests we should all only be concerned with the actions of those who intend to do harm. They must not all, either side, be lumped into the same pile.

That 'handful' is what? 800, & counting? That's not exactly a 'handful'. And that's only the ones identified & charged . . .

You're free to show me where more than a handful of those 800 were charged with 'seditious conspiracy' or the like.
