- Make it 99 indictments.
But a bitch ain’t one?
He grabbed them by the vote certification.
It doesn't count. It was just a locker room insurrection!
Oh there be some
Uh, The Kraken Kunt.
Take one down, pass it around
Ronna McDaniel was also on the call, making her an accomplice
Crime isn’t a crime anymore.
And again pushing other people to commit crimes for him
Another blatant crime that we are all witness to. Another open-and-shut case that we'll still need to investigate for years for some fucking reason.
If you come at the king, you best not miss.
If you come at me you can pretty much lock me up for life with zero evidence by just never prosecuting me and forgetting I exist after arresting me because the cop didn't like my attitude.
If you acknowledge him as a king, you've already lost.
It’s a reference to a tv show. The point is he is a powerful, influential, and dangerous person. A not guilty verdict will make him stronger and more vengeful. A careful, foolproof investigation is the best strategy to take him down.
At least that's the excuse for slow walking every investigation.
We will get you attorneys
And this was the moment they knew they had to sign the certification and bail out before they were in more problems.
Oh, they can idict Mc Daniel too, lol.
Damn the Republican party seems to be filled to the brim with criminals, don't it?
There are two overlapping circles: criminals & grifters.
Alright Ronna, you've been facing MAGA pressure for your ouster the past few months, here's your chance to do the right thing (hell of an ask for a Republican) / get payback
"We've got to fight for our country," said Trump on the recordings, made by a person who was present for the call with Palmer and Hartmann. "We can't let these people take our country away from us."
These people. Our country. "Us." It's not a dog whistle, it's a bullhorn. If you aren't a white, christian male they don't even acknowledge you as a citizen of this country. They are the "real" Americans and the rest of us are just guests. Guests that they want to evict.
I've got nothing more to add but to exhort all of you to vote next year.
Also, usually, if you're white but not Christian, you're not white to them. Hence Elon agreeing with a tweet saying that Jews are destroying white people.
Oh that's great news. This incontrovertible stuff is the good stuff.
Is this another perfect phone call?
Inb4 "he never said not to certify it"
I had hoped Obama getting elected was going to really bolster unification and the progressive isolation and disarming of racist, bigoted, and hateful views that would ultimately enable continued progress through the election of a woman as president to re-establish the US as a beacon of hope and prosperity. Instead we are here.
These racist assholes need to go. Reagan would be demonized by current republicans. https://youtu.be/2R8QxCD6ir8?feature=shared
