In semi-related news, the DC spitter had charges reduced to misdemeanors after 3 different grand juries returned no true bill. In federal court, there is a 30 day deadline after arrest to secure an indictment or your felony charges get dismissed.
This is all hilarious of course, but that sandwich thrower would probably be dead if he wasn’t white.
You're right for now. I think they'll stop caring by Christmas, as long as they oppose the administration, they're a threat.
"We"
That includes a lot of us here
Prosecutors fail to indict sandwich thrower in Trump's Washington public safety operation
Besides the good news in the story, can we just take a moment to appreciate the absurdity of the title itself? I love it
So is the sandwich okay?
It was long, but the meating went well.
HA!
No, of course it's not. It got on the ground. The story is funny, but it still annoys me a little, man wasted a perfectly good sandwich :(
a perfectly good sandwich
It was from Subway, though.
government wasted the expense of court time
Story of Arch Duke Frans Ferdinand's life.
It was shot 36 times from close range and sent to El Salvador.
For a-salt and buttery.
May the sandwich of justice strike again!
Subway...Subhow...
Lotta great sub sandwich places in Chicago
We need to start doing a trump hand check. Well maybe, it'll probably just give us too much hope.
On Tuesday, YouTuber Keith Edwards — a former staffer for the anti-Trump Lincoln Project — posted a side-by-side comparison of Trump’s hand during a Monday event and the hand of the late Queen Elizabeth II during an audience with then-prime minister Liz Truss.
Edwards noted that the photograph of the late Queen with Truss was taken just two days before she passed, ending more than 70 years on the British throne.
You're playing with my emotions.
Then you get JD Vance, who's even more in the pocket of right-wing think tanks and billionaires. If there's a Vance presidency, It'll pretty much be run by people like Thiel, Yarvin and Ellison.
Until congress fixes the damage done by Citizens United, everything else is just going to be a bandage. Maybe if the FPTP voting system and the electoral college go away, but that's even harder to do. I don't think America needs a good or strong president. It needs congress to do its job by reigning in the two other branches that have gone off the rails, but it's also controlled by openly corrupt right-wing representatives.

The grand jury 🥲
This is going to be framed as liberal juries nullifying just to be mean to poor old President Trump.
Who cares
You know it! Just wait until SCOTUS makes another special ruling that doesn't count as precedent in the future so their favorite party isn't held to the same standard.
The quote: We are willing to indict ICE agents for disturbing the peace and the sandwich itself for public indecency but no one else in this situation did anything indict worthy.
So if they wanted they could charge the sandwich or the ICE officers but because they are Trump’s willful ignorants, they get nothing but shame.
I wish someone would ~~throw a sandwich at me~~ assault me with a sandwich. I'm hungry.
