Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted August 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2023 It appears that from recent statements by the infamous MTG she will be trying to institute the Holman rule - Wikipedia in order to shut down Jack Smith. Its funny that the Trump Supporters and MAGA crowd have also latched onto the "They had 2 1/2 years to prosecute Trump, why wait until now, oh its because of the Biden crime family and its election interference" How many times must folks be told that it takes time to build a case, gather the evidence, interview witnesses and then determine if charges are appropriate. Two and a half years ago the date would have been February 2020, and just right after the Jan 6th debacle. How could prosecutors have built a case in just under a month. Many of those interviewed were just done this year as more and more information was obtained about there involvements. Yet the MAGA faithful believe what Trump spouts, and had he been charged in 2020 or 2021 they would have had the same rhetoric with "Pelosi is leading this witch hunt". The rule of law is the rule of law, and it does not matter who you are, commit a crime or crimes and after and investigation is done and completed it will go to court, cases take time to assemble and if you rush them then they fall apart and you, as the defendant, walk free when you were guilty and false prosecution statements are made, 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep once again those incompetent democrats have pulled off a fantastic feat by convincing these life long republicans to lie under oath....almost as good as the incompetent dems who managed to rig the election in 7 states without leaving a shred of evidence to be uncovered by 60 court cases, recount after recount, investigation after investigation almost all of which were conducted by republicans who voted for trump.

He didn't cause the riots. All he did was question the election results. Well, except that he volubly and repeatedly called for crowds to gather in Washington DC, made a speech outside the White House in which he named Pence, (conveniently a portable gallows was to hand, but then there are always a few of them knocking around on Capitol Hill) accused him of cowardice, and told the mob to march on the Capitol. He then watched it unfold on TV for several hours, making no attempt to stop it. So, nothing to do with him then, he is a sorely misunderstood person! Oh, and questioning the results, he did that alright; how many cases did he take to various courts, 60 odd? All dismissed for lack of evidence. Mind you, his crack legal team, Giuliani and that barking woman called "Sydney" managed to make Fred and Wilma Flintstone look like credible candidates for a Doctorate in Phillosophy - but that was no doubt all a misunderstanding as well. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should we also add the cabinet members who threatened mass resign vs Jeffrey Clark? And last but not least Cathy Hutchinson, whose life is not going to be the same after the Jan6 hearing.

Will be interesting to see him on the stand telling all he saw and heard from poor little innocent never did a thing that wasn't perfect donnie. Rest assured that if that happens the death threats from the cult will reach new levels. How long will the various judges allow donnie and the cult to threaten judges, lawyers, witnessess, etc til they give donnie a sample of what prison life might look like? 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 21 January 2017, rather than sit in the WH where a Code Pink protest was happening outside, trump came up to agency HQ in Langley. At first Mission Center Chiefs and SIS officers had to listen to a private speech by trump, who spent the entire time telling everyone how great he was. Then he went to check out the terrorism center before going back to the lobby, where he made a speech in front of the Memorial Wall. Most of us have friends on that wall. Outgoing Ex-Dir Meroy Park introduced him, and then it became a total embarrassment. There were 6 rows of chairs set up for an audience. The first 3 rows were reserved---for new WH staffers that came to the agency on buses. They were the trained seals, hooting and hollering at everything trump said---all of which was more of telling everyone how great he was. Real agency folks were stuck in the back 3 rows, wondering who the eff the clowns were in front, and as our job is reading and assessing people, realizing that trump was an ignorant, lying, self-serving Narcissist. It was a revolting display and an affront to the men and women who sacrificed for the country and were immortalized with stars on the wall. trump was barking about how massive his Inauguration crowd was (a lie, it wasn't even 25% the size of Obama's), how he was 'like...really really smart', how he had more TIME magazine covers than NFL QB Tom Brady, and the scam was to pretend the agency was really supportive of him by having his goobers bused in from the WH make all the noise. And don't forget the resounding slap on the face to the FBI on worldwide tv when at Helsinki Trump declared on the podium that he rather get intel from his chum Putin. Traitor, anyone?
