Pro-Trump Lawyer Lin Wood's Claims Against Mike Pence Prompt Calls for FBI, Secret Service Scrutiny

 

 

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  You have to be kidding me.  These people should be arrested and put in jail.  Stop the insanity.

 

From your article:
 

Quote

 

Wood, a staunch believer that Trump won the election, has switched his focus from Democrats to Republicans, calling for Pence to resign and face "execution by firing squad" in a tweet Friday. Once arrested, Wood suggested that the vice president would "sing like a bird" and confess to being a "main participant" in the "theft of the election."

 

Under Title 18 of the U.S. Code, threatening to kill, kidnap or inflict bodily harm upon the vice president is punishable by a fine, a maximum of five years in prison, or both.

Go for it, Ted!

The only fact that will ‘come out’ is the reaffirmation that there is zero evidence of fraud. (Unless of course they discuss the Mitch McConnell’s rather odd result).

I'm wondering if other people are appreciating the irony of a man Trump once called "Lying Ted Cruz" now lying for Trump.

There was also that time the one term loser insulted his wife and a few weeks later Cruz was licking his boots.

Another traitor who undermines the public's trust in the election process, without offering any proof whatsoever. They should all be tried and dealt with.

They are just throwing read meat to the mouth breathers.  There is no hope for those people anyways.  Nobody is undermining anything with anyone with half a brain.

[cmarshall]

The Republican Sedition Campaign will not succeed this time as everyone knows including them.  However, it can serve as a dry run for 2024 when stealing the electoral votes at the certification of the vote in Congress could be a real possibility.  After all, if the Rs had ten more seats or so in the House, they would indeed steal the election from Biden.  In. A. Heartbeat.

Very true. Trump insulted Cruz's wife and he started kissing Trump's butt a short while later

 

Nice avatar, BTW. What happened to the old one?

Trump called Ted’s wife ugly, said Ted’s father was involved in J.F.K assignation and labeled him lying Ted. That’s an insult of the whole family tree & yet Ted Cruz is the steadfast loyal boot licker. Ted has committed harakiri on his political future. Maybe he can be employed as Trump official boot polisher after both political career are over.

Wow! I'm so impressed that there are still Trump supporters out there who still believe that the results of the election will be overturned. Just on the off chance that it doesn't happen, will that lower your opinion of the sources that feed this belief?

Cruz barely won in Texas last time out. If Texans can barely stand him, what do you think that portends for the rest of the country? If, in fact Cruz even wins in 2024. As elite industries move into Texas it's getting less and less red.

As you seem to like these things, I'm going to tell you a fairy story:- Once upon a time in a make-believe universe trillions of light years away.  

 

No sorry, it begins like this: Once upon a time a swamp dwelling creature was cast out because he was a dumb, compulsive liar, but his supporters still liked him, although quite why was never understood, because, who likes dumb, lying losers anyway?

It's so obvious that no explanation is needed. In the swamp that is DC politics this is one of the ultimate bottom dwellers, nearly as hideous as the swamp king himself.

Luckily trump got crushed in the election and is headed to the courts, and ultimately to jail. cruz, unfortunately, will still be around.

Ted Cruz Isn’t Crazy – He’s Much Worse

In no particular order, Texas senator and Republican presidential aspirant Ted Cruz has: said acts of Christian terrorism stopped centuries ago, forgetting the Ku Klux Klan and the shooting in Colorado last week; claimed he has never met an anti-abortion activist who advocates violence, despite being endorsed by one just days before; dismissed the need for Planned Parenthood because there isn’t a shortage of “rubbers” in America; and made an offhand comment that Colorado mass shooter Robert Dear could be a “transgendered leftist activist.” All this in just the last week.

Says Ted Cruz "was just bribed by the Kochs to introduce a bill that would give them and their allies America’s national forests, parks, and other public lands and open them for mining, drilling, fracking and logging."

What is it with you and many Trump fans playing the victim card all the time? Aren't we supposed to be the snowflakes? This isn't about hate, it's about doing what's right and if you take that so personally then that's down to you. All people are doing is pointing at facts and the facts are that Cruz and his cronies are trying to subvert a legitimate elction to the demands of an increasingly desperate ex-Potus. ALL Americans regardless of what side of the political spectrum you occupy should be very worried about this.

That's just crazy talk.  If Trump succeeds in overturning a clear loss in a fair election, he will use his coup to stay in office as long as possible, then pass the dictatorship on to someone in the family.

It's been almost two months since the election.  Why haven't any pertinent facts been presented in any of the dozens of court cases?

 I agree Ted Cruz should be charged with sedation. Then judged, convicted and deported to his birth country. Unfortunately I live there and we sure as hell don't want him and won't take him back. If he is such a proponent of one party rule then maybe he should be sent to his father's homeland, Cuba, where they can accommodate his belief. 

I agree he should be sentenced to sedation. A 7/24 regimen of IV cannabis infusion should keep him in line and happily harmless. 

 

Many Republicans could benefit from frequent extended Joint Sessions of Congress.
