... spends his time here pimping for a 'man' who is a liar; convicted of Fraud and Sexual Assault... and according to the sworn testimony of literally dozens of his own Trumper Top Aides is a traitor to his country.

Not to mention his wrecking of the economy of said country; endangering her with reckless handling of our trade and security nation partners.

And starving to death some families and children around the world in a mindless quest that has saved, according to Conservative experts... less than one tenth of one percent of the Fed budget, if anything at all.

Then, we are supposed to take anything 1Nut says about any Dem being even close to that sort of dishonor and unpatriotic, and illegal, actions?

F him and his obnoxious desires to some day... one day, perhaps far in the future... actually 'own him a lib'.

Because really, that's all he's here for; not even a very sharp tool, either. About what you would expect from Donald, but I am disappointed in Vlad, who is definitely evil but not stupid, and holds Trump's puppet strings like a Master Puppeteer.

Sending the FBI to harass a judge and then spread it all over the media is serious. Seriously tyrannical. Using the DOJ to prosecute your political enemies is seriously F-ed up.

Even if this judge committed a crime this is not how we treat judges or anyone of standing in the community who is accused of committing non violent offenses.

In most states a judge cannot be arrested for a crime without a grand jury indictment. The grand jury's role is to determine whether there is enough evidence to bring formal criminal charges. This means that a judge accused of a felony must first be indicted by a grand jury before they can be arrested

Where is the grand jury indictment?

At the federal level, AUSAs can use an 'Information' rather than seek a Grand Jury indictment. I have seen the use of the 'Information' in federal proceedings:

"Like an indictment, an information is a formal charging document that describes the criminal charges against a person and the factual basis for those charges. Unlike an indictment, however, an information does not require a grand jury's vote. Instead, the information is presented to a judicial officer, usually a magistrate judge, who examines the information and decides whether there is probable cause that a crime occurred."

There would not have been sufficient time to convene a Grand Jury and secure an indictment against Judge Hannah Dugan. A GOP-appointed magistrate must have approved the FBI arrest warrant after reading the 'Information' provided by the Republican AUSA.

Trump's statement after arresting Wisconsin judge:

"I expect the legal profession to understand that the nation is not here for them but they are here for the nation ... From now on, I shall intervene in these cases and remove from office those judges who evidently do not understand the demand of the hour."

Lyrics excerpt ...

...
[Verse 1]
Don't you ever think of me
When you're outside strolling
Don't you ever wave the flag
When we're rockin' and rollin'

[Refrain]
Don't ---- where you eat, my friend

[Verse 2]
Who said it was hard to climb
A peak that you can't see
I tell you it's an easy thing
When it's you and me

[Refrain]
But don't ---- where you eat, my friend

[Verse 3]
A little food and a little drink, uh-huh
Nothin' too fancy
Lamb, veal, and some good old wine
This is the life for me

If the line being held by the Judiciary breaks,it's game over for our freedoms.

At what point does the shooting start?

The Republicans talk a lot about "Second Amendment" remedies for Tyranny.

My question is, how will they deal with others shooting at them?

Guns are everywhere in our society. It only takes a few people losing control create a very dangerous situation for everyone.

Has no one considered this?

Anyone can pull a trigger. It requires no special skill.

I see real trouble ahead.

"...by letting propagandists flood the platform with disinformation."

" the U.S. Attorney for D.C. is formally accusing"

No, he's not. He's made an inquiry. He sent a letter.

Martin has a record of thinly justified legal threats against media and other organizations. In recent days, he's sent letters to the New England Journal of Medicine, the CHEST Journal, and Obstetrics and Gynecology, accusing them of being "partisan in various scientific debates."

So...prove you're not, basically.

The letter asks what it's doing to "safeguard" the public from propaganda, as well as efforts to exclude "foreign influence operatives from making targeted edits" on topics that would "reshape or rewrite history." Again, these folks are talking about Biden legitimately won in 2020 as "rewriting history".

What efforts? There's ten million illegals.
Trump has deported less than one percent of one percent.

And what illegals? The highest profile case is a man who was here legally.

So Trump is not trying to deport "the illegals"

Trump is trying to get people like you to agree The Constitution must be suspended so that Trump can deport the illegals.

Clearly you don't know why Harris lost.

Harris had a lot of reason why she lost.

1) she was the least popular democratic nominee in the 2020 primaries, one of the first to drop out. Though, I suspect it's because she was secretly offered the VP position. Biden was the nominee all along. The DNC learned after 2016 to make it seem like more of a horse race.

2) she had only 5 months to convince America to vote for her. There are reports of people who didn't know Biden had dropped out. (Not everyone consumes the news.)

3) she's a woman of southeast Asian / Jamaican descent. There are many Americans who will never vote for anyone but a white cisgender man. (Obama's win was boosted by the failure of the BushJr administration and the Republican Party)

Reasons why she lost that are fabricated

1) she didn't have a plan, was unqualified, would have been a weak president.

2) she was too pro Hamas.

3) she was too pro Israel.

4) she was going to bring in undocumented immigrants and give them all free sex changes.
