Donald Jessica Trump Statement after guilty verdict:
“This is all done by Biden and his people. This is done by Washington. No one has ever seen anything like this.” “This is a scam, this is a rigged trial. It shouldn’t have been in that venue. We shouldn’t have had that judge.”
One of these two individuals thinks he should be President of the Country. The other is a private citizen not involved in politics.
I voted for him because the alternative was worse and I generally don't defend him I just point out the shameless hypocrisy of people like yourself.
For example, I've never defended January 6th, I just point out that compared the Democrat riots that killed dozens of people and did multiple billions in property damage were worse and none of you leftist idiots batted an eye. Your hivemind cult media told you the riots were "mostly peaceful" so you ignored them.
This is a lot of superfluous words.
You could have stated this more succinctly by saying you are just a sh!tposting troll looking to troll every thread.
while a grandmas are getting prison time for entering the Capitol for 3 minutes through a door held open by a Capitol cop...
NBCNews review of J6 cases identified just 15 current pretrial detainees ordered held by a judge. Among them are defendants who (allegedly): - set off an explosive device - fired a gun - plotted to murder FBI employees - showed up at Obama's house with a van full of ammo after Trump posted his address Two of the pre-trial detainees have body counts. One stabbed a 19-year-old to death in a park, he claimed self-defense and wasn't charged in that case but has an extensive criminal record. The other killed a handcuffed Iraqi civilian. A few of them went on the run. There's the trio of former Jan. 6 fugitives who were captured earlier this year at a ranch in Florida. All are credibly accused of assaulting police on Jan. 6. There's the former New Jersey National Guard police sergeant who set off a 48 hour FBI manhunt after he fled special agents who showed up to arrest him.
That's a handful of people out of over a thousand. And they're among the worst examples the cultists at NBC could find.
After three days of jury deliberation, an El Paso County woman who briefly entered the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 has been found guilty of four misdemeanor charges, officials announced Friday.

In 2024, the federal government may soon launch an extension to the existing Child Tax Credit program as a part to help families with kids. Unlike one-time stimulus checks, this plan will provide families totalling up to $870...
Got it. Lots of procedural stuff I know nothing about. But also, apparently, EXTREMELY important "facts" not directly associated with the charges - like, "Is a president AND ex-president immune from everything, and so the facts of the charges become completely irrelevant ???"
I guess I might sound like a broken record on that one! But.....another day....and they're STILL thinking about it !! They're so damn smart and deliberative.
They should take their time. Their decision has consequences for every future President. They've already tipped their hand towards rejecting absolute immunity.
They will likely rule that the President has immunity for "official acts", then the arguments will center around whether the criminal acts in question constitute "official acts" or personal acts.
In Trump's case, his lawyers have already conceded that not all of his actions while President were "official acts", so he'll still have to defend his actions.
No, they most certainly shouldn't "take their time."
I'm just not a f*cking moron so I understand that when they come from a population that votes 95% the same it's a virtual certainty that every single one that does vote will vote blue.
I understand that Democrats do get out the vote ballot harvesting in these crime infested areas in every single election.
I also know that they've done polling in the prisons and the criminal populations self reports being overwhelmingly Democrat whether they pull the levers or not.
Please remember that you're very very stupid people.
You don't understand anything.
well whatever. The black criminals don't vote.
meanwhile criminals who look more like you should just be released, amirite?
Eric Kleefeld @EricKleefeld Fox host Maria Bartiromo on Jan. 6 rioters: “I’d like to see some movement with these people getting out of jail. It’s just wrong that all these people have been locked up, that’s what I’m saying.”
I imagine that Maria used to fancy herself as an actual journalist. I wonder if she still kids herself?
I need to correct myself. I was always under the assumption that right wingers refused to learn about Trump's trials because they refuse to take in anything about Trump that distorts their view of him.
But this Hunter Biden trial confirms something much simpler. Trumpers are just stupid and don't like to read or dig deep into anything beyond the click bait headlines. As it turns out, Trumpers are just as out of it on the specifics of Hunter Biden's Trials as they are with the Trump trials.
Sorry for my error.
The only genius in Trump was appreciating the stupidity of the avg American.
I think that I agree with this.
But would expand from just stupidity, to multiple notable character flaws, as well (like pretending to care about honesty and decency and the law....when you don't).
As is often correctly pointed out, every one of the ~90% of millions of Rs is not an intellectual mo-ran.

Don't forget to mix in religion. Religion is the political secret sauce for unbreakable loyalty.
The Evangelical vote has proven to be one of the most powerful voting blocks over the last 20 years.
And it is not because it is a huge swath of the country. Instead it is because Evangelicals all vote in lock step and are not independent thinkers. If pastor says Abortion Bad = Trump good that is all it takes. If pastor says Iraq war good = Bush Good that's all it takes. If Pastor says Democrats are the wild beast of Revelation they vote GOP.

Violent crime fell in the first quarter of 2024 by more than 15%, continuing its postpandemic decline nationwide, according to data released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Homicides and reported rapes both declined about 26% in the first three months of 2024 compared with a year earlier, data from the FBI’s quarterly uniform crime report showed. Robberies were down about 18% and aggravated assault fell by about 13%, the FBI said. Reported property crime declined about 15%.

I don’t disagree. Biden deserves some credit for the “radical right” sweeping f European elections.
if it’s stronger than expected, why do we need a stimulus?

According to attorney Brian Glick in his book War at Home, the FBI used five main methods during COINTELPRO:
Infiltration: Agents and informers did not merely spy on political activists. Their main purpose was to discredit, disrupt and negatively redirect action. Their very presence served to undermine trust and scare off potential supporters. The FBI and police exploited this fear to smear genuine activists as agents.
Psychological warfare: The FBI and police used a myriad of "dirty tricks" to undermine movements. They planted false media stories and published bogus leaflets and other publications in the name of targeted groups. They forged correspondence, sent anonymous letters, and made anonymous telephone calls. They spread misinformation about meetings and events, set up pseudo movement groups run by government agents, and manipulated or strong-armed parents, employers, landlords, school officials, and others to cause trouble for activists. They used bad-jacketing to create suspicion about targeted activists, sometimes with lethal consequences.[72]
Harassment via the legal system: The FBI and police abused the legal system to harass dissidents and make them appear to be criminals. Officers of the law gave perjured testimony and presented fabricated evidence as a pretext for false arrests and wrongful imprisonment. They discriminatorily enforced tax laws and other government regulations and used conspicuous surveillance, "investigative" interviews, and grand jury subpoenas in an effort to intimidate activists and silence their supporters.[71][73]
The FBI conspired with local police to threaten dissidents; to conduct illegal break-ins in order to search dissident homes; and to commit vandalism, assaults, beatings and assassinations.[71] The objective was to frighten or eliminate dissidents and disrupt their movements.
Undermine public opinion: One of the primary ways the FBI targeted organizations was by challenging their reputations in the community and denying them a platform to gain legitimacy. Hoover specifically designed programs to block leaders from "spreading their philosophy publicly or through the communications media". Furthermore, the organization created and controlled negative media meant to undermine black power organizations. For instance, they oversaw the creation of "documentaries" skillfully edited to paint the Black Panther Party as aggressive, and false newspapers that spread misinformation about party members. The ability of the FBI to create distrust within and between revolutionary organizations tainted their public image and weakened chances at unity and public support.[47]

They want him to fail so badly they would absolutely opt for an economic catastrophe on themselves and loved ones if it would achieve it. You know when things get really bad in a cult people become suicidal because they are too far gone from reality.
