Summary
After facing nearly 100 felony charges, including a historic conviction for hush-money payments, Donald Trump’s legal troubles appear to be stalling.
Jack Smith, the special counsel leading key federal cases on election interference and classified documents, reportedly plans to resign following Trump’s recent election victory, which effectively nullifies these cases.
Trump’s return to office, combined with Supreme Court rulings enhancing presidential powers, signals he may face minimal accountability.
This lack of oversight could empower Trump’s administration to act with unprecedented legal and legislative freedom.
Because Biden is a feckless conservative Democrat who cares more about protecting the INSTITUTIONS of American democracy, such as the notion that presidents and former presidents deserve special treatment, than democracy itself and appointed an AG who agrees.
Probably the best way to protect the institutions of democracy was to keep a goddamn fascist from running the country
Which he and his administration of course failed spectacularly at in every way possible.
He was exactly the wrong president for the moment.
The country needed bold action to stave off societal collapse and in stead, it got Mr Slow And Steady to reassure the owner donors by rearranging the deck chairs and shouting at people to stop complaining about the icebergs.
He’s got a few months, a lot of guns, and not a lot of years left.
I’d have already picked the phone up. Executive action? You got it.
Seriously. Lincoln suspended habeas corpus and had pro-confederate newspapers shut down. That is what a real response to a threat to democracy looks like.
I guess the modern day equivalent would be dissolving Twitter x, publicly hanging Elon musk, and actually putting Trump in jail. What a lovely dream.
In regards to Musk, I would settle for having his citizenship revoked as punishment for his earlier illegal immigration.
Is Gitmo still open?
