Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

Awesome. Get fucked.

It's crazy how Biden managed to weaponize all these separate judges at once, all these separate prosecutors, and all these laws written decades before his presidency. What a conspiracy.

Or maybe these shitheels are actually breaking the law.

Hey now don't make the theorists move the debunking goalpost even further

"The Constitution does not provide any basis for executive branch involvement w/State election&post-election procedures."

This is exactly what I've been saying. The Constitution explicitly gives the operation of elections for federal offices to the States. Any action taken by a federal official to insert themselves into a State election is necessarily not part of their duty as a federal official.

This means that Trump's case will remain in Georgia (Meadows supposedly had the strongest case to send it to the feds) and, most importantly, will be televised. The thing that's going to bring Trump down isn't the indictments, it's the trial on national television with tens of millions tuning in. It'll be OJ x10.

You, uh, aren't familiar with the OJ trials are you?

Hey man, if the glove fits…

Not necessarily. Meadows has already filed an appeal with the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. If you think Meadows is going to stop anywhere short of his buddies on the Supreme Court, you're kidding yourself.

At this point just run out to Walmart and get a frame for that pardon, it won’t save you.
