(s)Elections See other (s)Elections Articles Title: Now They’re Going to Indict Trump Over January 6!?! Word is, they are now planning to indict Trump for freeing Willy We always thought the big indictment would be over January 6. Now, apparently, that’s what they’re doing. Apparently. New York Times: Federal prosecutors have introduced a new twist in the Jan. 6 investigation by suggesting in a target letter that they could charge former President Donald J. Trump with violating a civil rights statute that dates back to the post-Civil War Reconstruction era, according to three people familiar with the matter. The letter to Mr. Trump from the special counsel, Jack Smith, referred to three criminal statutes as part of the grand jury investigation into Mr. Trump’s efforts to reverse his 2020 election loss, according to two people with knowledge of its contents. Two of the statutes were familiar from the criminal referral by the House Jan. 6 committee and months of discussion by legal experts: conspiracy to defraud the government and obstruction of an official proceeding. But the third criminal law cited in the letter was a surprise: Section 241 of Title 18 of the United States Code, which makes it a crime for people to “conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person” in the “free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States.” Oh, jeez. Why not indict him for walking a duck on a Tuesday? Hosting a bingo game that lasted more than 5 hours? Selling alcohol during a hurricane? Using an x-ray for a shoe fitting? Living on a boat for more than 90 days? Punching a vending machine? Hypnotizing someone outdoors? Leaving his car door open too long? Throwing urine out the window of his car? Selling his dog’s hair? Just charge him with everything! Congress enacted that statute after the Civil War to provide a tool for federal agents to go after Southern whites, including Ku Klux Klan members, who engaged in terrorism to prevent formerly enslaved African Americans from voting. But in the modern era, it has been used more broadly, including in cases of voting fraud conspiracies. A Justice Department spokesman declined to discuss the target letter and Mr. Smith’s theory for bringing the Section 241 statute into the Jan. 6 investigation. But the modern usage of the law raised the possibility that Mr. Trump, who baselessly declared the election he lost to have been rigged, could face prosecution on accusations of trying to rig the election himself. He rigged the election… by claiming the election was rigged. Imagine, if you will: a man who rigged an election by saying it was rigged. I can’t even. A series of 20th-century cases upheld application of the law in cases involving alleged tampering with ballot boxes by casting false votes or falsely tabulating votes after the election was over, even if no specific voter could be considered the victim. Victimless crime! Victimless fake crime! Anyway, Maggie (this is written by that Jew cunt Maggie Haberman) goes on to claim that this is justified by citing a bunch of unrelated bullshit no one has ever heard of and which doesn’t matter. Honestly, I read the whole article twice, and I don’t understand what the topic here is. Seriously. Basically: he’s getting charged for January 6, over something or other. This is pretty much certain to happen, given that they are announcing it, and every other indictment they announced happened. It just goes on and on. The ducks at the park are free. Trump did nothing wrong. Freeing Willy was an act of justice – it was NOT a crime! Freeing Willy was an act of justice – it was NOT a crime! Everyone is saying this is making Trump more popular – which is true. But it really, really does not matter, because the elections are fake. The big loser is DeSantis, who destroyed his political career because some daft cunt convinced him Trump would be less popular because of these indictments (there is a long history of right-wing figures becoming more popular as a result of political persecution, so I don’t know who told him that). Of course, Trump is also a big loser in all of this, because he can’t win an election that features mail-in ballots. Sorry. That just is not ever going to happen in reality. It is literally physically impossible. It would be like a fat drunk trying to free Willy while being hunted by death bots. Probably, Trump is going to lose the election due to massive fraud, and then he will go die in prison. I mean – if we’re just being real. But whatever. I’m here for it. I’ll ride with Trump until he’s in prison. Actually, even then, I’ll be cheering him. Hopefully he will be sending secret messages from prison. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
