Finally a good use for my taxes.
OK, but if she wins again Trump gets hanged. Deal?
Nah, the fix is in. Trump’s administration doesn’t even pretend to be on the up and up. Openly corrupt and the conservative wing has lost its mind more than usual to approve the behavior, whether it’s in courts or congress.
They are going to toss her in prison for daring to inconvenience dear leader.
This justice department is very incompetent. The only political prosecution they ever got to a trial I can remember is the guy who threw a sandwich at one of their thugs, and the jury threw that shit out.
Everything else has been dismissed because this is the worst bunch of lawyers to ever lawyer.
2 years ago, career attorneys with decades of experience would drop everything to get a job in the justice department because it was so prestigious. Now they’re having trouble recruiting kids straight out of law school graduating at the bottom of their class.
And federal judges are DONE with these clowns. It’s not just a presumption of innocence for the defendant. The justices’s default assumptions are increasingly that the justice department is actively lying.

Will no one rid us of this turbulent
priestTodd Blanche?God I’m so sick of this entire corrupt administration and their fucking childish vindictive bullshit.
What good is being president if you can’t instruct your justice department to investigate the woman you raped? Excuse me! I thought this was America!
Accuser makes it sound like he was not found guilty of rape. If Trump is not impeached the US will be rightly viewed as an autocratic banana republic.
I feel like we blew past banana republic a while back and are onto deciding whether we’re a nation of laws at all anymore. The idea that the US is a democracy is laughable.
The fact that democracy put us here is what’s laughable.
to be fair, the amerikkkan version of democracy has always been corperatocracy or christocracy… never was or ever will it be real democracy
How do you people write that without cringing yourself to death? It’s like tweens writing Micro$oft. Waow you really showed em with that original twist in the name
For the record, I hate this place as much as you - if not more.
sure it is, poors get one set of laws and rich get the other, as is tradition for the “roman model” of governance
It’s still a Democracy as long as we have elections. Once MAGA cancels elections, it’s Civil War.
Oh, we’ll have elections.
They are just trying to decide how convincing they can get away with making it look like a free and fair election without letting it actually be free and fair.
Putin for example has decided that 88% support is “close enough” to a free and fair election… for now.
how convincing they can get away with making it look like a free and fair election
I believe all elections in the US going forward will be putin style elections, the rethugs will just issue a decree that the supreme leader won again and this time he going 95% of the votes. All hail king turd
Elections are not the defining trait of democracies. Technically they are not even a requirement. This is why plenty of autocracies can actually have a ton of elections.
Elections are not the defining trait of democracies
Obviously, he meant free and fair elections, not show ones in dictatorships. Legitimate elections define democracy.
I agree, but again. Elections are not even technically required. There are democratic decision making structures that don’t rely on election of representatives or voting. Specially on direct democracies, it’s but one of the many ways to ensure the prevalence of democratic values.
it’s Civil War.
Unless there’s something better on TV.

Frankly, the continuing inaction to do nothing at all to even admonish the administration for openly corrupt behavior turning everything into a personal benefit for trump is depressing even if someone implemented ‘other methods’.
As bad as Trump is, it’s more worrying that no one is even vaguely willing to go along with ousting him. The handful of GOP that was even vaguely on the fence has been ousted at this point. Since the supreme court has ruled that openly politically aligned and outright racist districting is ok, and challenges about each state’s districting are only ever valid if the challenge would strike down a democrat plan…
You think Congress has the power to enforce an impeachment even if they rule that way? We’re beyond banana and full mango.
Accuser makes it sound like he was not found guilty of rape
He wasn’t. It was a civil lawsuit. He was found liable.
Guilty and Liable are just different legal words for different kinds of cases, but they both mean the same thing:
HE DID IT!
but they both mean the same thing
No, they don’t. Being intentionally stupid doesn’t help your cause.
He was found liable not guilty, and if you don’t understand the difference you should read instead of commenting.
pull the mushroom out of your sphincter
Pull the fingers out of your ears and accept the free Middle School vocabulary/ civics lesson.
Guilty and Liable are just different legal words for different kinds of cases, but they both mean the same thing:

He definitely did it, but liability is not guilt and you shouldn’t say such ignorant things in public.

Really, I think the current state of the world is the result of idiots proliferating. People who don’t understand the difference between liability and guilt, for example.
fighting the good fight for the rapist pedophile, are we? you should be so proud of your good deeds, good character, and integrity
Nope, I’m fighting the good fight against ignorance. I already said he totally did it.
All pretenses of not being a personal bludgeon have been dropped.
Was there any pretense before?
Well corporate media outlets held a pretense to toe the line and try to keep social democratic movements from gaining popularity by pretending all is normal, all is well.
Sure, when it comes to media, but the pretense of the doj not being a cudgel is what i meant
Actually she is his adjudicated rape victim, not accuser
CNN is owned by a MAGA billionaire shithead and the use of the word “accuser” instead of “sexual assault survivor” is likely intentional.
Make corporate media responsible for spreading misinformation again.
MCMRFSMA!
Rolls off the tongue like a fine … rusty school bus.
First he raped her. Then he violated her. Now he will try to kill her. I want her on a coin.
She should get the entire slush fund.
^ This.
Cannot wait to see some reporter or politician ask Todd Blanche if she’s eligible for the money.
Literal political weaponization to go after a victim of your leader. The Republican party is so despicable…

Democrats couldn’t even raise minimum wage. Useless.
ETA this post is now my most unpopular, unseating the former champion, “fuck the pope”. You’ve been a terrific audience, thank you!
Democrats don’t do anything.
Republicans do evil things.
Yeah, one side is fucking worse.
Sure. I’ve voted D for last two national elections.
But… they’re still absolutely shit. Two different turds, one is less runny. Good job.
Over 70% of voters want universal healthcare, Ds can’t be bothered. Our “labor party” can’t even manage to keep our wages and benefits above those of POLAND. Un-fucking-believable, we’ve been surpassed by eastern europe.
Biden couldn’t even manage ONE stand alone minimum wage bill. Didn’t even bother. You should be ashamed to defend him, that was his platform. What he did there was an evil thing.
He didn’t need 60 votes. They can use the “nuclear option” whenever they’d like, for example, passing judges just requires 50 votes. (which 8 Ds just crossed the aisle to vote for an individual who refuses to say that Biden won the 2020 election). Excellent work again, Ds.
Trent Lott the Republican came up with the “nuclear option” term, and bOtH pArTiEs adopted it immediately, because it scares the shit out of dummies. Before 2000s, that simple majority vote was known as the “constitutional option”. They can do this whenever they’d like. They had minimum wage in the fucking bag for first two years. Are you blind?
Listen, I’m the first person to point out that the D party has it’s fucking problems. But saying “both sides suck” is just bullshit. A sprained ankle and and amputated leg both suck, but let’s not fucking equivocate here.
I appreciate you self identifying this way
Oh fuck you, you sack of garbage. Biden or Harris would never do the vast majority of the fucked up shit Trump has already done.
Other than, you know, funding and defending a genocide, declaring that the most contagious neurological and immune compromising viruses to have ever been made in a lab was ‘over’ because billionaires were losing too much money.
to have ever been made in a lab
Yeah, right. You’d best get back on Qanon.
Yep, definitely just a schizo right wing story and has no basis in reality.
https://brownstone.org/articles/did-ralph-baric-at-unc-create-sars-cov-2/
Absolutely no evidence to suggest that the virus (accidentally or otherwise) originated as a gain of function experiment in a lab.
Besides that, my main point is that the democratic administration downplayed the ongoing pandemic to protect moneyed interests, and not as a result of actual eradication of the virus.
TO CLARIFY: I do not support the current administration IN ANY WAY. Denying wrongdoing on the part of the democrats, however, is either wilfully ignorant or naive at best.
Please never vote again
I vote every election, and voted for Harris and Biden before that.
Ds are a minority now for a reason… less than a third of voters, just like Rs. It’s because you’re both absolute shit parties.
Over 70% of voters want universal healthcare and higher minimum federal wage for example… voters have wanted this for years.
Independents are now 40%+ of voters. You require our votes to win any national election.
Please stop treating those who help you like garbage, and at least pretend to be a reasonable person. You’re only fucking yourself and your own party over. Good job, professor.
p.s. Oh, and knowing my voting is against your wishes makes it all the sweeter, thanks! I would feel awful if someone like you agreed with me.

Ive seen the entire country go red, a few times in fact, Ive never seen it go all blue. Maybe lets try that once just to see what happens. Maybe the reason dems suck is because they never been given the power to do anything.
Ds are a minority now for a reason…
Because dumbfucks like you continue to equate them with Republicans.
Over 70% of voters want universal healthcare and higher minimum federal wage for example… voters have wanted this for years.
I guess that’s why so many Americans considered even Obamacare to be “death panels”. You’re full of shit, you goddamn fucking dumbass.
But I like the illusion that my vote can change something
Imagine thinking deplorable doesn’t define a republican, especially with actions like these and days like Jan 6th under their belt.
You’re surprised when fascism does fascism?
Not surprised, just… disappointed in humanity
The GOP just HATES the law. They must despise having a Constitution which establishes a country of laws since they allow this kind of autocratic dictator shit to keep going on under their seal of approval.
Wilholt’s law:
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
Is this the same administration that said Biden weaponized the DOJ?
Every accusation is a confession of either what the Repedopublicans are already doing, or what they plan to do.
Every. Time.
Every accusation is an admittance or precursor to truth from this despot. tRump Derangement Syndrome is what he considers his supporters to have and levies as an insult to others who hate him.
Hahaha I’m going to spell his name weird, that’ll show him
The dude makes up names for people, calls women and people he doesn’t like low IQ, and you have a problem with me changing his name so the word rump is prominent? Feign some more incivility. Odd that MAGA goons always have a problem with the smallest, most inconsequential things (like calling you weird), yet have no issue overlooking the same when it’s someone they agree with. If your identity is so entwined with a single politician that modified names cause discomfort, maybe it’s time for some self-reflection.
MAGA goons

Hasn’t he given her enough money? You already know she’s unforgivably litigious, so you give her another reason to sue, after the judge inevitably throws out this case, like they’ve thrown out every one of these cases?
He hasn’t paid a cent
And it sounds a lot like you’re accusing her of being vexatious
Why the fuck shouldn’t she be vexatious? Doesn’t that just mean angry? I think she’s justified in being angry.
Vexatious in this contexts implies vexatious litigation which is a form of abuse against the legal system and very much what he wants people to think she’s doing
But isn’t he initiating this litigation?
The law is not written in stone. Different DOJ’s interpret things differently, from other DOJ’s. That is why a “well-written” law is ambiguous, so it can potentially generate large amounts of legal costs and fees.
Threatening a mosquito with a tank. This is so obviously djt threatening the entire public that nothing serious can come out of it. This is the circus they voted for.
