For the caging of migrant children — no indictment. For the unqualified support of the [neocolonization] of Palestine — no indictment. For the racist language used against Haiti and countries in the Global South, as well as against China during the height of the COVID-19 crisis — no indictment. For openly mocking people with disabilities — no indictment. For opposing the Equality Act, which would protect the LGBTQ2S+ community from discrimination — no indictment. For his vile woman-hating, misogynistic statements and conduct, including sexual assault — no indictment.

For appointing union-busters like Postmaster General Louis DeJoy and National Labor Relations Board General Counsel Peter Robb — no indictment. For demanding the execution of the Exonerated Five (formerly known as the Central Park Five), even after their convictions were overturned — no indictment. For publicly aligning himself with the most vile [neo]fascist forces like the Proud Boys — before, during and after Jan. 6, 2021 — no indictment.

For criminal yet legal statements and actions too numerous to list, all targeting the working class and especially the most oppressed — not one single charge!

I always cringe at those "we got him!" posts...like until there's an actual conviction, sentencing and the sentence is actually implemented...we ain't got shit.

It was estimated on his indictment that his sentencing would take around 21 days, which is short considering the contents. I think it is a reflection of how solid the case is because they are photographic, electronic, and video evidence of all of it. I really recommend you giving it a read as it is available for public use
