Good, these clowns are not above the law. That said, I'm sure there will be a lot of " I take the fifth".

Trump warning of “death and destruction” if he is charged.

 

if it’s his I’m good with that.

 

Figures, tantrum "gimme what I want or else"

 

This could easily be construed as a threat, could it not?

 

Trials for mafia, drug kingpins, and now former president Trump

 

All three are examples of organized crime Dons.

 

I don’t know what this country has become when we try to hold the rich and powerful accountable. trump’s lips barely move when Jim Jordan speaks.

GOP weighs protecting Trump with law shielding ex-presidents from prosecution
A trio of House Republican committee chairs say the House of Representatives could soon take up legislation to strip state and local prosecutors of the authority to prosecute former presidents in response to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s potential indictment of former president Donald Trump.

They added that Mr Bragg’s work falls under the jurisdiction of Mr Jordan’s House Judiciary Committee because that panel — and Congress — has “a specific and manifestly important interest in preventing politically motivated prosecutions of current and former Presidents by elected state and local prosecutors, particularly those tried before elected state and local trial-level judges”.

The ranking Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, Representative Jamie Raskin of Maryland,. has condemned his GOP colleagues’ actions as “nonsensical interference” committed at the behest of Mr Trump, who faces multiple criminal investigations into his conduct being overseen by Mr Bragg, as well as Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis and a federal special counsel, Jack Smith.

But House Republicans have vowed to use their authority to protect Mr Trump even as the criminal investigations into his conduct move closer to the charging stage.

 

Above the law, just how they want him. Despicable and un American as the day is long.

 

Ho ho ho ho ho!

BREAKING: Pence Ordered to Testify to Federal Grand Jury about Conversations With Trump About Jan. 6

 

Leaves Pence in a rough position. Tell the truth and alienate the maga nuts. Plead the fifth (if you even can in this) or lie and Trump gets empowered if he skates.

 

Pence has the spine of a jellyfish and still thinks he can be elected to public office He will plead the fifth all day long

 

Awww, poor Pence! So he's not above the law either? Damn, what's the world coming to?

 

He will appeal all the way to the SC. Agent smith doesn’t need him and won’t wait on him but will drag him in for questions eventually to prove the point

 

maybe the gop homies on the court will give him a hall pass. a really shitty precedent if they do.

 

Trump is going to trial in the Jean Carrol defamation case. Summary judgement denied.


In a new filing on Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan denied Trump's motion.

"The contrasts between Mr. Trump’s assertions in his Carroll I answer and his October 12 statement show that a reasonable juror could find that his statement had a different effect on a reader than his denials and affirmative defense in his answer," the judge wrote. "For one, 'a reasonable juror could find that [Mr.] Trump was complaining of a far broader and more corrosive conspiracy than anything that was at issue in Carroll I in October 2022,' including based on his statements that Ms. Carroll 'completely made up a story' that is a 'Hoax' and 'changed her story from beginning to end [(in an interview where she was promoting her book)]. .. to suit the purposes of CNN and And [erson] Cooper,' along with his comments about the judiciary and Ms. Carroll's counsel."

 

It's going to get worse, a lot worse. Wait until Pence finds out Mother can't go into the grand jury room with him.
