Always better to get that stuff through subpoena if it's for criminal charges, otherwise, they have to rely on that hacker as a witness for every case. But that info would be great to help know what to request, for national security reasons, and for private use - I hope we get a database where employers and friends and family and neighbors can look up everyone who's affiliated with this movement and what they've said/done/threatened to do. I'm enjoying the stories of people being "revealed", losing their jobs, etc.

One thing I have learned with all the discoveries. It is best to have a good to great relationships with your ex spouse after divorce if you are going to get yourself involved in possibly illegal activity

Since the enablers won't act on their own, we need more of this.
Dow Chemical won't donate to politicians who opposed election results | TheHill Money talks. The irony of big business who benefitted the most from the GOP tax cuts making this type of move is just a thing of beauty to see.

This is another thing that the Republicans do. Once people started comparing the attack on the Capitol with the "Night of Broken Glass", they have to appropriate it with something completely incomparable.

Right, throw enough smoke bombs in the room and people can't see that the people that are talking to them are wearing white robes (or clothes at all for that matter.)

Is any GOPer going to acknowledge that Parler would be in very deep legal trouble now without Section 230 protections?

Nope. They have (smartly) managed to hijack the debate, making it seem like Section 230 hurts conservatives when, of course, it is the only reason Q can exist on social media at all. |

No one (especially the President) on the right has any idea what section 230 does.

Yup. D.C. is federal (i.e. would be covered by a pardon and involve Biden/Garland having to follow through with it). There is a D.C. municipal code that sort of works like state law. But it is all federal at the end of the day. |

Nobody really knows if Trump can effectively pardon himself, that will the subject of a legal battle after he's out, but it seems like the smart move here would be to resign and have Pence pardon him - if he hadn't already burned that bridge. Pence pardoning him after all this would be the most cowardly act yet, but, I still really wouldn't be surprised if it happened.
I've wondered how much of Trump's insanity was based on fear of criminal prosecution if he leaves the White House, but, he hasn't acted consistently with that goal either, so, I don't know. Last edited by molson : 01-11-2021 at 06:00 PM. |

At this point why would Pence pardon him. He literally almost got him killed and has completely turned.

Wolf's resignation makes it pretty clear that this is just a move to have a legal DHS Secretary codify all the stuff courts have said are invalid because Wolf was illegally appointed. It's just more rat fucking on the way out of the doors.

Yeah not good. They had former FBI counter terrorism director from Bush admin and also former Obama FBI director on CNN .They reminded CNN talking heads that there is 15000 FBI agency’s national many accountants or lawyers. The FBI and Secret Service are not going to secure 50 capitals, all the top leadership as well as the Capital. From what 3000, 40000 50000 or more angry armed insurrections? Though the country has been built to not ever unleash the army on the citizens we have to have all options on the table. Last edited by Galaril : 01-11-2021 at 10:48 PM. |

Rep. Tom Reed is floating the idea of censure with the inability to hold federal office. Is that strong enough?

I read something that it was not true that a conviction and removal would make him ineligible to run again, that there would need to be a separate vote on that issue. Maybe that's what they are talking about.

Amendment 14 Section 3: No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability. So they'd have to say he was involved in an insurrection and is therefore disqualified from office. |
