You can read the transcript or listen to the replay of the hearing this morning at:
Yeah but its different this time, because “Trump deserves it!” As I’ve heard from several leftists about anything relating to Trump.
Meanwhile Jan 6 victims rot in jail already longer than many violent felons.
🤣
The Supremes not only need to throw out the J-6 obstruction of justice charges but they must give all the prosecutors, the judges and the jury Marxists in the case a royal ass whipping for their selective prosecution and treasonous abuse of the justice system.
Did he say this?
“Neil Gorsuch: “Would pulling a fire alarm before a vote, qualify for 20 years in federal prison?””
That was indeed an amusing “hypothetical” presented by Justice Gorsuch.
“Yeah but its different this time, because “Trump deserves it!” As I’ve heard from several leftists about anything relating to Trump.”
When commenting on the NY trial against Trump, leftists bring up all types of things about him that have nothing to do with the accusations at hand (Such as his companies have filed bankruptcy in the past). Their position is “We hate him because he beat HRC, so therefore he should be convicted of something”. Unfortunately, that is also the position of the Judge and the prosecutor in the NY case.
It is also amazing the morals that leftists have suddenly developed. “He had an affair!”, they scream. “We can’t have a President who would do such a thing”! All as they ignore and memory-hole the position that sex is a private matter and has nothing to do with a President’s governing abilities, that they took just a few years ago.
Yes, he did.
liberals OCCUPIED the Wisconsin capital for a MONTH not that long ago!
no charges
In the Constitution, there is a prohibition of “ex post facto” crimes. That is, the crime has to be a law before you can be convicted of breaking it. Basically, no making something illegal after it is already done.
An important aspect of “no ex post facto” protection is criminal statutes have to be read NARROWLY in favor of a potential defendant, such that, if a person could read it ahead of time and reasonably determine that what he or she is doing is not a crime, then it is not a crime. This is especially true if the prosecutor’s approach is novel, never been done before, or being selectively applied.
All of the Trump charges and all of the J6 charges are the polar opposite of this basic Constitutional protection. The prosecutors are trying twisted, obscure, version of the statutes, never done before, and only selectively applying them to their political opponents.
It’s absolute garbage and a travesty of the legal system
Gorsuch is not a judge. He is a justice.
It was the a-hole Congressmen who chose to interrupt the proceeding. There was no threat to their lives, and the session in which they voted for Joe’s fraudulent electors could have continued.
Now through the fib agents in jail.
> Neil Gorsuch: “Would pulling a fire alarm before a vote, qualify for 20 years in federal prison?”
Wha?? Someone cancel this cheeky dude’s bank account...
Gorsuch is not a judge. He is a justice.
Oh, for f’s sake! I know that! I’ve even met the dude(aka Justice) and remembered to refer to him as Justice Gorsuch. I’ve posted multiple threads on SCOTUS proceedings and normally refer to Justices appropriately. One little slip and the FR police have to make a special effort to point it out.
You have been judged :)
Another good question was from Justice Alito: “What if democrats blocked all the bridges from Virginia, and congress couldn’t vote? Would that be an ‘obstruction felony?”
Sorry I thought I was attacking the author not you.
I agree with running these corrupt tyrants them through
