Actually, you should mention what the charge would be to impeach. You do know that 'doing his job' is not grounds for impeachment. Of course you don't have any charge. You don't know law, you only suck up the primordial ooze in the Fever Swamps of the 45 Cult. 4 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like it's only weaponization if it's something you don't like. Impeachment of Garland? Justice, finally at last, not weaponization. At all. Let's face it: Fox News type are just thrilled to know a 5 syllable word. Hence, it's hilariously relentless overuse. They just told me I couldn't have a green teal latte. I asked: "Are you weaponizing the latte machine? Because that's how I feeeeeel." 6 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree on the weaponization in that their 'weapon' was aimed at and appears to have hit a former POTUS who seems to have committed a felony. It's been quite awesome.

LaosLover Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I feeel like the word weaponization has been weaponized. By Boneheads. Formerly, it meant turning a non-weapon object into a weapon. Let's just make up new meanings to words to work ourselves into a lather. Who wants to live that way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is zero input about nuke docs from FBI or from AG Garland. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2022/08/11/garland-trump-mar-a-lago/ Garland is not a person given to telegraphing his punches. He proceeds slowly and cautiously, as he should. When he is ready, I suspect Trump will feel like he has been hit by a M1A Abrams, traveling at full speed. Beware of quiet men, they are the most dangerous. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So making sure NOBODY is above the law is now tin-pot banana republican stuff? The mere existence of TS or TS/SCI in an unauthorized location is a felony, signed into law in 2018 by 45 himself. When I held TS/SCI, if I had even a single highly classified doc in my home, I would have been cuffed and perpwalked. 45 had zero right to keep any classified docs. If they were declassified they would be stamped DECLASSIFIED. What did he plan to do with all that stuff? That will be a critical question at his trial. Even his sycophants have no answer. In fact, they gloss over that. It's the same as 6 January: his sycophants ignore the real question: what was the purpose of encouraging the mob to march to the Capitol when the recognition of Biden's landslide victory was a mere formality? It wasn't to buy Capitol souvenirs. Seems to me insurrections and attempted coups fall under the category of "tin-pot banana republic". 7 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tippaporn Posted August 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2022 42 minutes ago, NanLaew said: But Trump was not fully cooperating with the National Archives was he? Late last year, they requested a quantity of documentation that their records showed was missing and suspected that Trump had removed them. They subpoenaed him for these be returned and thinking he was being clever, Trump did return a certain quantity of them earlier this year. However, it wasn't the complete trove of documents. This enabled the National Archives to better define what was missing and that is what's PREDICATED in the search warrant, ie. documents with specific classification such as TS/SC meaning "top secret/sensitive compartmentalized information". They found those during the legal search, legally removed them (along with other stuff that was also PREDICATED in the search warrant) and issued a receipt for them. Nothing illegal in what the FBI has done. Trump, by dicking about and surrendering only some documents was, as they say in theater, hoist by his own petard. It only confirmed their suspicion of him having removed all these documents. Innocent until proven guilty is still the legal protection he enjoys. The FBI was acting on behalf of the DOJ in an evidence-gathering exercise that has ultimately got Trump and his sycophants in a serious ass pucker. I wonder why? I can't believe that Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed articles of impeachment in the House on Garland. Belay that. It's MTG being MTG again. I can believe that. The MSM sure can sound convincing. Especially if you're prone to believe everything they write is gospel. Not all of us suck it up without questioning and willingly ignore so many unaddressed missing pieces. No thanks. I'll wait for the real story. Not the goal sought one-sided version. Most on the left with extreme bias towards Trump have already made up their minds as to the "truth." I'm sure this story will be revisited as more facts come out. 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly. The FBI would not have succeeded in getting a search warrant for a fishing expedition. IMO they already knew what they were looking for, via an informant or archive gaps. The due process is simply to make sure all the i's are dotted and the t's are crossed, prior to going to a grand jury. Trump has survived two impeachment attempts. He is not going to have corrupted Republicans sitting on the judge's bench when/if it gets to trial. Which it may not, if his lawyers start plea bargaining. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump will win AGAIN, the left wing deep state has NOTHING, ie., J6, Raffensperger/Fulton Co. g-jury. Big distraction to the real issue plaguing the country: the daily and EPIC failures of the Biden administration AND certainly due to the left's inherent and crippling, mind altering fear of all things MAGA and Trump, soon to be presidential candidate and indubitably the 47th POTUS. I should mention that AG Garland will/should be impeached and that's a likely scenario after a GOP mid-term win.

You folks just don't get it that there are people in this world who actually are after the real truth. Whether it goes against Trump or not. Some here believe anything. Anything at all as long as it confirms their Orange Man Bad bias. And if one doesn't agree and doesn't hop on the already overcrowded band wagon then that must mean we're all loony conspiracy theory nuts or Trump sycophants. Much of the world vehemently rejects your false pronunciations. Riddle me this, Lacessit. Why did Newsweek come out with an article quoting two anonymous high level DOJ sources who said they were cleared to state that the DOJ had no knowledge of the raid.https://www.foxnews.com/media/newsweek-blasted-incorrectly-claiming-merrick-garland-didnt-know-about-fbis-trump-raid And Garland doesn't immediately issue a denial. And it took him how long to finally make a public statement? But not answer any questions? Nothing to see here, right? But do give some educated thought to your idea that anyone who sticks up for what they believe is right is automatically a Trump sycophant. Is that the scientific method you've been taught? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
