but this will get laughed out of court. They convinced grand juries to bring all those charges of specific crimes but the whole thing was political? Crazy, just plain nuts.

Yeah, bring it on!

Jack Smith was appointed to investigate Trump's crimes, but ultimately Trump got away with it. That isn't enough for them?

Cotton’s call for investigation is political
Therefore Cotton is in violation of the Hatch Act

Cotton’s action is that of “a political actor masquerading as a public official.” Cotton is a Federal Employee and Hatch Act prohibits federal employees from engaging in political activity while on the job

So, yes, remove him from office.

They will literally "project" their own crimes onto someone else and force the recipient of such an accusation, to defend themselves.

Eventually, they will be exposed for their lies and guilt, but they know it takes time for that to happen, so by then, they have moved on to the next "projection".

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

we should move the million-person demonstrations straight to Capitol hill and have our own government takeover. Let's bring cookies for the cops, though, not bear spray.

Such small government.

The alternative is us being arrested. Maybe if chuck and co post more cutesie posts on social media itll help

He wears it as a badge of honor.

He WAS "arrested" and charged. It was posted all over DU. It might not have looked like the "Law and Order" teevee fantasy "perp walk" but he was in fact, "arrested" 4 times for criminal charges. Twice by the feds and twice by states (GA & NY).


NY




GA



FED (in FL)



FED (in D.C.)




In fact, GA had the temerity to even publish his "mug shot".

Yes that was an "arrest mug shot", which establishes that yes, he was "arrested" (despite him now using that image to make money off of).



But you can thank Chief Justice John Roberts for swooping in and saving his day.

I can't image that the Trump people would want to make a case out of this. It seems to me that the process of discovery would reveal some very bad things about Trump's actions.

DISCOVERY of TSF would be so fucking amazing!! Trouble is he'll die before i get my full enjoyment!! (But that will be ok too)

revenge by Trump pure and simple--and he is having Cotton doing his dirty for him.
Neither of them have any shame.

The investigation comes after GOP Sen. Tom Cotton requested that Smith be investigated for “unprecedented interference in the 2024 election.”

LOL. Trump has launched an investigation into Jack Smith for Hatch Act violations. As a reminder, the penalties for violating the Hatch Act are 1. Removal from federal service, 2. Demotion, 3. Suspension. OH NOOOOOO! www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

Kelly Ann Conway was continually violating it - for real! In fact, CREW found - Kellyanne Conway eclipses 50 Hatch Act violations on Twitter

First of all, more than ANY administration in my lifetime, practically everyone in the first Trump administration BLATANTLY violated the Hatch Act.

The Hatch Act says people working for the President can not do political election stuff. Now both of Obama's Secretaries of State, though both prominent people politically, did not attend the convention when they were secretaries. In 2020, SoS Pompeo appeared remotely at the convention from Jerusalem. Clear violation of the Hatch Act. While Obama Hud Secretary Castro was called out for appearing at a political event, none of the repeated, far more obvious Trump violations were ever acted on.

Now, if you look up the Hatch Act, the penalties are pretty weak.

but the book was always thrown at the regular civil service employees and any suggestion of "electioneering". I remember having to take annual training on it and it was to the point where back when Obama was first elected, we were not allowed to have pics of say, Michelle and their girls, in our offices or cubicles - ONLY the "official" portrait of Barack Obama.

The idea that a prosecutor was brought in to supervise 2 federal criminal cases under the auspices of the Attorney General, against a defendant who happened to be a FORMER President (who hadn't even "officially declared" his candidacy for 2024 when said prosecutor was brought in), is the epitome of absurd.

All of this is throwing everything (including the kitchen sink) around the room in order to distract from the Epstein mess.
