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

"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.

Wow! No doubt there will be an appeal but clearly, the Judge saw something that was hugely disturbing in those documents. I don't understand how supposedly patriotic Americans are not demanding answers. Are Trumpers that far gone?

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.

Is this just more pathetic attempt to minimize Trump supporters literally SHITTING on the walls of congress? Oh the poor, poor Trump supporters... Such victims...

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.

Lutherf, you know as well as I do that they are stringing this largely peaceful demonstration out (a phrase coined during the Antifa, BLM riots) until November.

And, should the Democrats expand their majorities at that time, then for ever more.

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?

Appeals court overturns Judge Carter’s order to house LA’s Skid Row homeless

A U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel vacated an order issued by U.S. District Judge Judge David Carter in April that set out a swift timeline for the city and county to shelter people in Skid …

„Likely criminal“ ?

More like 100% illegal & criminal.

 

[Callen]

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.

Do you think congress should do away with laws prohibiting obstructing proceedings of congress?

Act like a shit stain, expect to suffer the consequences...

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.

 

[Paradoxical]

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.

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.

AP is also reporting on this..

Judge: Trump likely committed crimes related to election

A federal judge has asserted it is “more likely than not” that former President Donald Trump committed crimes in his attempt to stop the certification of the 2020 election.

apnews.com

“Based on the evidence, the Court finds it more likely than not that President Trump corruptly attempted to obstruct the Joint Session of Congress on January 6, 2021,” Carter wrote in the ruling submitted in the federal Central District of California.

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 illegality of the plan was obvious," Carter, who was appointed by former President Clinton, wrote.

Nuff said

This thread isn't about BLM and Antifa.

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.

You will make any excuse for the group of republicans that tried to end our democracy.

Is that something you're proud of? Does your family have the same beliefs? Have you been ostracized for your beliefs?
