Are you saying that justice is always given out fairly in the US and only criminals receive punishment?
You might want to buy a plane ticket out of the country for early winter just incase Trump wins because he's going to be mad at you for acknowledging his felony conviction was fair and just.

Like when Scooter Libby compromised an undercover CIA operatives identity to get back at her husband?

Like the people that she was working with overseas that were tortured and killed?

Like Alexi Navalny?

Breonna Taylor was sleeping.

Nixon, non of those situations would apply because he's referring to the upper ranks of the FBI ...

Having posted the piece, you know the focus was on extrajudicial activities, and those not rated as high on the probability scale.

That aside, your quote italicized above is absoeffinlootely hilarious.

Probably why Trump is so desperate to postpone all his court dates until after the election.

BlueWaffles is such a fkkking idiot.

No wonder he's a deplorable Trumping MAGAt.

If Trump gets elected, you can bet the intelligence community will be on his top ten revenge binge.

Even Hitler was speachifying about Germany's glorious army winning the war, right before he went into that bunker.

Even while Bagdad Bob was broadcasting that no U.S. tanks had entered Bagdad . . . as U.S. tanks were rolling down the street behind him.

The only "intelligence" Trump would allow is the stuff he writes himself. Because you won't be a citizen anymore. You'll be a "subject" of a Dictator who knows his "subjects" must be kept deaf, dumb and blind in order for him to survive.

We're watching that happen right now, before our very eyes. A third of America has already been stupefied.

Test yourself: If you think Trump is smart enough to be Commander-in-Chief of America's Armed Fesorce during a World War, you've been stupefied.

Instead of fleeing, we need brave men of conscience to just
flat out REFUSE to enact the crazy Gestapo-like new rules of
conduct that Trump will insist on having in the agencies,
to keep them 'under his orange thumb'.

But I can understand, wanting to protect their families...

Dictators shoot men like that . . . or charge them with treason.

Keep in mind.

Trump is a sociopath and sociopaths don't feel the pain of others. Only their own.

It's not beyond the imagination that Trump, as Dictator, will be charging a lot of his enemies with treason. Especially journalists as he sets up his new State TV.

Getting out would be a good idea for all CIA covert operatives in Russia and its satellites. Names and photos will be given over, along with current addresses and phone numbers...

And the names of any Russians who secretly cooperated with U.S. CIA covert operations. They'll be shot immediately ~ and probably their families, too.

Twin...I know.
I have a TOP/SCI myself.

It is just a pity that
the military doesn't unify and
stand up to the former
Orangeness, and just
flat out refuse to carry out any
such commands if he comes to power
again.

That line MAY have to be considered
and possibly crossed at some point.

Or else, we may lose our nation to
the Maggots...

This is all about exacting revenge on anyone who investigated trump as well as oversaw or ordered an investigation. He is a petty man who shows sociopathic characteristics. Is there any doubt he would not order these things.

The one question I have is what happens if NY decides to jail him on his convictions?

If he loses his appeals New York, he'll take it to the U.S. Supreme Court where he has "bought-and-paid-for" justices to cover his ass.

And since they commit their atrocious decision with impunity, there's not a damn thing we can do about it except . . . . don't vote for Trump in November.

It's the only power we have that's greater than the U.S. Supreme Court. They can overturn a conviction, BUT WE CAN KICK HIM OUT OF OFFICE.

Good! Treasonous bastards who put politics before country need to leave and never come back.

ROFLMAO!

The ones who would need to flee most are the literally dozens of his hand-picked aides, lawyers, and appointees who testified under Oath to his many crimes, Trumpers ALL!

Let us know when Dems do something as shady as trying to illegally overturn an election with Fake Electors and a violent mob.

Which was after Trump's hand-picked DoJ leaders threatened to resign in masse when he tried to put a loyalist in position to send a letter to make the Fake Ballot scheme work.

Those things are not the same as anything Dems have done.

AND

Rwingers have NO answer as to why these Trumpers so viciously turned on Poor Dear Leader... other than they must be either Dem Crisis Actors, Antifa, or Tourists!

The Truth... that they were admitting the crimes they witnessed and or participated in, is something that True Trump Cultists must ignore completely.

And look like complete fools and or complicit traitors while doing so.

You mean the guilty like all of Trump's aides that testified under Oath to his crimes?

Yadda, yadda, yadda - just like all the celebs who claim they'll will flee to Canada, [wish they would] but never happens as they are liars. All talk, not actin - damn it!

So... Trump will be going after all the Trumpers who weren't more loyal to him than to the country, and will be going after them.

Good to know.
