Stop sticking your foot in your mouth.

There already are transparency laws for federal lawmakers which is why Nancy Pelosi's investments didn't even raise an eyebrow of suspicion during a 5 month investigation of members of the House and Senate.

And FYI, Martha Stewart isn't a federal employee.

You can stop digging now.

It's long past time to prosecute Rudy Giuliani. He's the one who put this phony electors scheme in action.

That should be worth the loss of his license to practice law anywere . . . forever!

Since they're all GOPers and it will be GOPers passing out judgments, the most we can expect is that they'll get a rap across the knuckles or maybe lose a committee seat.

The myth of Trump's omnipotence is deeply seeded in their brain.

Michigan (and 5 other states) will have to deal with their own members. Some representatives have already been referred to their state Attorneys General for prosecution.

However, it is a federal crime to submit forged election documents to the National Archives. (double trouble if the forged documents contained the State seal as with the Arizona documents. Michigan documents did not.)

And, in Arizona's case, they have already been traced to a citizen group called "AZ Protect the Vote" and the decision to send the forged documents to the National Archives was spearheaded by Rudy Giuliani, according to the group's leader Lori Osiecki.

It won't be hard to extrapolate influence by Rudy Giuliani to the other five states.

Standing alone, some of this may not seem important enough to garner action. But as part of a larger criminal scheme, it's an important cog in the overall criminal activity.

Buying and selling investments is not a crime. Capitalizing on insider trading is.

Did Pelosi capitalize on insider trading? It was your insinuation. Don't you know the answer?

DOC

Well, we already know that Pence was expected to reject certain State Certified Electors on January 6 and request the "other" slate of electors that (as we now know) were prepared in advance for just this occasion.

This falls into the category of "Best Laid Schemes O'Men and Political Rats" etc.

Looks to me like DirectTV is trying to distance themselves from OAN to avoid getting caught up in the wake of all those lawsuits.

'Cover your ass' (better late than never) would be the logical explanation.

Speculation is pointless ~ other than to say trouble was brewing . . . or had already brewed. Something drove him to the solution of last resort.

I doubt if anything said so far on this thread has anything to do with why Jeff Parker committed suicide.

I'm inclined to think something horrible in his personal life was the culprit. Only his family or a close confidant would know the answer to that.

I don't think there's going to be any roof blowing. But I can envision certain January 6 co-conspirators on the Senate side networking their corporate donators for a "career adjustment" before their constituents do it for them.

AU

Saturday's Vaudville act in Arizona was certainly a testament to tired, worn out acts but it still manages to incite irrational chants from loyal followers.

When Trump was dissing Dr. Fauci the crowd started chanting "Lock him up!"

The lack of rationality was really quite sickening. It was the same mob mentality that motivated January 6.

The "sudden" I referenced was the 3 years ago when Trump started to throw Cohen under the bus. Sorry, I should have been more clear about that.

January 6 will be causing waves of after-shocks for years. No one is about to forget who was behind it. It will be memorialized by anniversaries much like 9-11.

I'm not surprised you'd want to turn down the heat. Ain't gonna happen.

Trump was laying all the blame on Pence during his riot speech. So, in that respect, they failed their leader.

However, they were successful in two respects. (1) They created the biggest manhunt in the history of the United States. (2) They exposed and opened for liable the names of GOP Senators who were complicit in an attempt to overthrow the U.S. Government.

So, whatever Trump expected them to do, it backfired.

MSGT @ #8

"Really? Have any of them been charged with possession of a weapon?"

Read the link and weep, MSGT, for posting such a stupid response.

And try not to miss the point of what January 6 investigators are REALLY doing when stupid people call in looking for something they lost while participating in a violent and illegal breach of the Capitol Building to disrupt an official process of government.

Let us know if you ever figure it out.

Michael Cohen's sudden attack of conscience doesn't make him a hero. It makes him a useful tool that is being utilized by the left to combat the tyrannical and dictatorial abuse of power that has come into evidence involving the former POTUS.

Be forewarned! This is only a hint of what Donald Trump has in store for the rest of us. His dictatorial thirst for unlimited power with no consequences has no limits. NO LIMITS!

What we see is what we're going to get if we're not very, very careful.

LEGALLY

"They really are idiots."

Not a doubt.

Sure, and when you call about that gun you lost, just give them your name, address and social security number and if it turns up, they'll give you a call. Listen, you wouldn't happen to have the serial number handy, would you? They found a lot of guns, so a serial number would help them a lot.

SUCKERS!

The first thing I thought was, here comes a Republican appeal.

But then I read the article ~~

"Since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2019 that federal courts couldn't police partisan gerrymandering . . . ."

Governor DeWine could lose re-election in 2024 over this.

You're a genius, DOC.

I thought of that DOC @ #16 but I was almost positive McCarthy didn't have any.

"Her GOP opponent has not conceded"

Has anybody checked the local lockup? He might be in jail.

She has also commissioned a self portrait called "Melania's Eyes" which will (reportedly) go on sale.

EARTHMUSE

We'll see how brave he is when he gets in front of a Grand Jury and Trump's not around to break his fall.

Beck is going to need a ventilator, a "No Visitors Allowed" plastic room, a Last Will & Testament and funeral arrangements ~~~ SOON!
