Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It's quite a list....

‐Trump’s former chief strategist, Steve Bannon, was charged with wire fraud and money laundering, in addition to a conviction in a contempt case similar to Navarro’s. He’s currently awaiting sentencing
This is the kind of information, that the “Law and Order “ folks need to be reminded of on the regular…
Or is it we need to follow the law, but they are being unfairly targeted?????
Unfortunately we don't share a common language anymore. The people fighting for "law and order" don't actually mean, that everyone has to follow the same law. For them it's a tool to police minorities and political opponents. In other words fascism.
They want to use the law to order you to bow down to them. It's that simple.
Don’t forget women and unborn children!
Because I can't be arsed to look it all up myself, did any of the people on that list have a bench trial, or was it all jury trials?
Those traitor cunts don’t give a shit. The only way to deal with them is to marginalize them.
Time for the Frank Wilhoit quote:
Soon to be on the list:
-Trump’s former personal legal adviser, Rudolph Giuliani, was barred from practicing law in NY and DC, and was indicted for spreading false claims regarding Georgia and Arizona’s elections. He is currently awaiting trial.
So 90% of his team are felons. At what point will we just admit that in today’s politics, Republican == Felon?
No, not all of them. Some have never been caught.

I believe Weisselberg is also in the “currently in prison” category, as I recall, he was sent directly to Riker’s Island following sentencing? https://apnews.com/article/weisselberg-trump-perjury-new-york-b76cde56c6cb983ab8789f95d5a0c6c0
Really hope they keep the prison sentence trend going
