I'm waiting for someone to really handcuff and perp walk the Orange Menace. All this bullshit about how dangerous he is is great but the DOJ is gutless and the states are not sending their cops to arrest the fucker so, "Same ol, Same ol" whimpering but no guts.

I dunno the reasons but I suspect they want to try him in Georgia on state charges first, trials in Georgia are on TV. High republican public officials will refute the big lie, while sending Donald up the river, along with the recording of the phone call. By the time that happens the DOJ should have worked it's way through the rouges gallery of his minions and indicted all of them, with most cutting a deal for Donald to shave off a few years.

The most important thing is making sure the republicans in their current state of lunacy don't gain power in congress, prosecuting Trump is secondary to that IMHO. Donald running around loose divides the republicans and creates many shit candidates with reduced chances of winning the general election. Moving the public J6 insurrection hearings as close as possible to the midterm election will maximize their impact. Waiting until after primary season in Georgia was wise too and the first grand jury is hearing evidence from many people now, the DOJ will eventually have all that evidence and the J6 (and public) will have the Georgia evidence too.

I dunno for sure, but if I had to guess, I'd say politics was involved, Donald is also a useful boogeyman to have around for the democrats in the midterms, the talk of a 2024 run is ridiculous, considering his legal shit. Donald, democracy and abortion will drive democrats to the polls in the midterms. Donald might keep his fans home nationally, if he is pissed off at the republicans enough and he should be, because a few of them are gonna throw Donald under the bus before the midterm election.

I talked to my neighbor today and he said he thought Trump did some good things.???? THis guy is an 82nd Abn Iraq vet and 100% VA disability. A young guy that is not a heavy MAGA type but I think he might be a bit brain damaged from an IED or something. Did not seem to be a deep thinker. We hit it off cause I'm ex Airborne too, but was 50 years ahead of him.
He complained that his pension only gave him $6 grand a month, and he couldn't afford his own place, so lives with his mother. I almost shit because the wife and I are living on ~$2,600 a month and paying for property taxes of $4,000 a year.
I worry about the Gen XYZ kids, who are so fucked by the Corptocracy thet they will never be able to own their own homes or a living wage. We need Democrats to actually do something about the shit that Wall Street has inflicted on the American people.

The only party that I can see, that wants to solve problems, protect the constitution, govern responsibly, respect the rule of law and is patriotic are the democrats. The battle between left and right will be fought out inside the democratic party, the republicans are unfit to govern or hold any elected office. They have a domestic terrorist wing and a propaganda wing, while the political parts try to restrict voting and steal elections, while pandering to the worst elements of their party.

There is no choice in November, whoever is a member of the republican party associates with domestic terrorism, sedition, treason, election rigging and cheating, they are fascists.

He actually called them up on stage at his klan rally last night
View attachment 5161214
He should hold white sheet events, why not fraternities have toga parties, he can have a white sheet and hood rally, like in the good old days.

Those who have a problem with masks, don't have an issue with white hoods, in fact I see fascists wearing masks in public now, but not for heath reasons. It seems they did learn something from J6, when masks were less popular among the Trumper crowd at the capitol and many caught a case of criminal conviction, thanks to plentiful video.

Trump & Bannon collude in an attempt to give Bannon a bogus defense to his criminal contempt charges
10,253 views Jul 10, 2022 Steve Bannon blatantly and flagrantly defied a congressional subpoena to provide testimony and documents to the January 6 committee investigating the insurrection. Bannon decided he would rather commit the crime of contempt of Congress than incriminate Donald Trump.

Now that Bannon has been indicted and is pending trial, he and Trump have gotten together to cook up a transparently unconvincing defense: Trump said he will waive executive privilege (of course, Bannon did not have a viable executive privilege claim in any event) so Bannon can testify. Bannon will try to use this development as evidence that he could not have testified previously absent such a waiver by Trump. This plainly is a desperate attempt to avoid being convicted for the two contempt of Congress charges for which he's been indicted.

They will now have special status in a high security prison, as part of a violent terrorist movement with plenty of armed terrorists on the lose, a supermax would be appropriate for some of them.

During Trump's trial in Georgia the judge, jury, prosecutors and witnesses will receive thousands of death threats from Donald's terrorist supports, before he is even convicted or sentenced. This will weigh heavily on where he does his time, it must be a secure facility of some kind to protect his secret service detail, who will end up being his jailers, even in Georgia. So maybe supermax time for some of the federal convictions, maximum security for many because of national security and terrorism threats. It will be the same for Trump's federal trials too, thousands of death threats to the judge and jury.

Trump's legal problems set to explode over the next few weeks: report

According to a report from the Daily Beast's Jose Pagliery, Donald Trump and his family are about to enter what the journalist called a "summer of legal hell" as a multitude of his legal problems -- both civil and criminal -- come to a head.

While much of the focus of the former president's legal travails has been on the House select committee Jan 6th hearings attempting to prove that Trump had a hand in the seditious insurrection, as well as the special grand jury in Georgia looking into his attempts to subvert the 2020 election results, the former president is also facing several depositions he must endure tied to lawsuits he and his family are facing.

With former Trump fixer Michael Cohen joking, "I don’t suspect that he’s going to have the free time he has had in the past to play any golf,” Pagliery detailed what the former president is facing over the next two weeks -- and beyond into Labor Day.

"During the week of July 18, Trump and two of his adult children will face tough questions from the office of New York Attorney General Letitia James. Trump, Don Jr. and Ivanka will be asked about the roles they had in personally overseeing the way the family company vastly inflated the monetary value of its properties to land inappropriate bank loans and minimize tax payments," he wrote. "Then, the very next week, the Trump Organization faces trial for the way Trump appears to have directed his security guards to attack protesters who were calling him out for his infamously racist rant about Mexicans when he launched his presidential run in 2015."

Ivanka, Don Jr and Eric are also on the spot at the beginning of August as attorneys will grill them "seeking to prove that the family knew a crappy business phone was a dud but still hawked it as a business opportunity on their Celebrity Apprentice television show. The former president is the final deposition scheduled in the case, which will drag him into a closed-door interview on Aug. 31," adding that new never-seen-before footage from the show is expected to be released.

The report notes that the Georgia investigation being conducted by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is expected to be wrapping up at the end of August which could lead to an indictment based upon Trump's call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger where the former president demanded he find enough votes for him to win the state's Electoral College votes in the 2020 presidential election.

Pagliery wrote, "Of course, it’s entirely possible “ol’ Donny Trump” gets out of all these jams once again. Trump has an incredible record when it comes to avoiding legal and political culpability," before adding, "But the convergence of so many cases against Trump during the next few weeks means any one of these issues could become a real problem for the former president. And just when things couldn’t seem to get any worse, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office is expected to take the Trump Organization and its former CFO to trial for dodging city, state, and federal taxes by coming up with a payment scheme that included off-the-books luxury apartments, a flashy car, and tuition at an exclusive school for his grandkids."
