Here is the truth: Donald Trump attempted to overturn the 2020 presidential election and seize power,” she said in a statement. “He mobilized an angry mob and sent them to the United States Capitol, where they attacked police officers, invaded the building and halted the official counting of electoral votes. Trump watched on television as police officers were brutally beaten and the Capitol was assaulted, refusing for hours to tell the mob to leave.”
She continued: “This was the worst breach of our Constitution by any president in our nation’s history.
Donald Trump’s suggestion that members of Congress who later investigated his illegal and unconstitutional actions should be jailed is a continuation of his assault on the rule of law and the foundations of our republic.”
She will be investigated and she will be prosecuted and she will go to jail. Schiff and Raskin will go to jail over the Impeachment. Hunter will be brought to Congress where he will either not testify or lie. He will end up in jail. Or he will tell the truth and his uncle and father will go to jail. I am personally hoping Biondi picks Matt Gates as the special prosecutor.
I thought Trump's goal was to end lawfare, not expand it.
I am pleased to nominate Christopher Landau to serve as Deputy Secretary of State. Chris will work closely with our great Secretary of State Nominee, Marco Rubio, to promote our Nation’s security and prosperity through an America First Foreign Policy. Chris served as my Ambassador to Mexico, where he worked tirelessly with our team to reduce illegal migration to the lowest levels in History. He is also one of our Country’s great lawyers, and clerked for both Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas on the United States Supreme Court. He graduated from Harvard College, first in his Class, and Harvard Law School, and has argued nine cases in the U.S. Supreme Court.
Americans should be very glad another tyranny was brought to dust. And that Russia lost again. Seeing more people be free is America's original and best dream.
From tendar's twitter. Worth a read:
There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen.“ The costs for Russia for the failed Syrian adventure by Putin is immeasurably high. It is an earthshaking, political blow of the highest magnitude. The discussion regarding North Korean troops in the Ukrainian war from a military point of view is irrelevant. With around 12.000 troops you cannot expect a major difference, since this is a Russian loss rate of 4 days. It has been primarily a political gesture. Putin was desperate to show the world that he has „friends“ in the world. This is why the loss of Syria is such a monumental defeat for Moscow. It totally neutralized this attempt. Russia isolation is now combined with irrelevance, an attribute far worse than anything Moscow can bear. It showed the world that even the few puppets Russia has, it cannot sufficiently protect. Putin made a name for himself to be portrayed as the exact opposite of the „weak“ Russia of 1990s. The truth however is that Russia has never been weaker than now. Russia‘s importance in the Middle East has been relegated to negligible. Syria was the only leftover from the Soviet Union and even that Putin blew it. The failure in Syria is first of all Putin‘s failure and while Putin is famous for his unlimited nihilistic cynicism, this one will stick. 3:43 AM · Dec 9, 2024 · 58.3K Views
will be interesting to see how pardons for J6 criminals play out politically.
the m'ga base loves the idea of pardoning cop beaters obviously - so badass patriotic! - but hardcore m'aga is what....20% of the country? Most of the rest aren't big fans of the whole coup/end democracy/zip ties thing.
Trump's backed himself into a corner. He has to pardon them but doing so will be an anchor around his neck and an easy and valid criticism.
(((Harry Enten))) @ForecasterEnten Voters think pardons for Jan 6 protesters is a "terrible, terrible, terrible" idea. Most (64%) are opposed. Just 1% want Trump prioritizing these pardons. Few (33%) think the Jan 6 protesters were demonstrating patriotism. A majority think it was an insurrection (53%).

Landau is related to Israeli sculptor Sigalit Landau
"[Last] week, Joe Biden issued a blanket pardon to his son Hunter, “for those offenses against the United States which he has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014 through December 1, 2024.” There seems to be broad consensus that this is another blow to the Rule of Law, with the only disagreement being whether that’s a good thing or not, and exactly whose fault it is. I’ve been hanging out on Bluesky just to see how the libs are taking things, and as far as I can tell, the mood is defiant — when Biden pardoned his son, things were different, and anyway it was never a “norm” that you can’t pardon your son for being your bagman in a criminal enterprise that possibly started a war, and anyway Trump is a Convicted Felon. This is all to the good, because “Our Sacred Norms” are pretty much the only reason these people can give that they shouldn’t be prosecuted in military tribunals."
