Imagine being indicted for telling people to follow the law.
Imagine all that coming from the same party that loves to parade them around as “war-heroes” (altho Mark Kelley in particular IS a hero, bro is an ASTRONAUT)
They like people who brag and paint some glorious life picture.
They don’t like humble heroes who are public servants at heart, that’s contrary to their entire being.
Only in America is telling people that they don’t have to follow unlawful orders can even be considered a crime.
They’ll probably just keep pulling together grand jury’s until one does
They’ve tried this multiple times on different cases, and still fail. As much as it seems like it, the number of truly brainless sycophants in these kinds of positions is actually quite small, and it seems that specifically the judiciary has relatively few of them.
Which is for those paying attention is insane.
The old saying was that any prosecutor could get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich. The fact that these losers keep failing to get these speaks to the ineptitude.
There’s something especially funny about that statement given the “sandwich assault” case where they failed to indict.
grand jury’s
Grand Juries are mentioned in the Constitution, but back then, they were a protection against just this kind of prosecution, or persecutions. They were meant as a safeguard against unwarranted prosecutions, as simply being charged is a great hardship in itself.
Since then, they’ve basically changed the definition of what a grand jury is, turning it from a check on the prosecution into a tool of theirs. As the saying goes, for our generations they can indict a ham sandwhich.
This administration is just so ham handed they have failed to even do that. They are too arrogant to try. Just like their lies. Their allies pretend to believe them, like their lies justifying the summary executions of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. But because of the Magna Carta, and English Common Law, and the Constitution that was borne from them, we have these jury trials, and grand juries, whatever bastard remains of the latter, and citizens, not handpicked sycophants in the legal system, decide guilt or innocence.
Here in this country, the UK cancelled jury trials by the way, for up to 3 years in prison, up from 1 year exemption in 2020. They underfunded, sabotaged the courts to jamn them up then used he backlog as an excuse to cancel the magna carta and allow their handpicked magistrates to decide guilt. It moves things along so much quicker when you cancel the time honored freedoms of the west I suppose.
There is a push to pervert our rights across the west right now, not just in the UK and the US. We in the US despite having the perhaps worst politicians by character, also have one of the strongest systems of rights and checks and balances, in law if not in fact. We just have to find a way to get them to be honored.
Hegseth is attacking these people for saying the exact same thing he said in 2016:
It’s almost like restating their oath of service isn’t a crime…
