I won’t comment on why these traitors were not indicted. Just want to make sure everyone knows the names of these fucking traitors.
The nine-page report showed jurors recommended charges against 39 number of people, compared to the 18 who were charged along with former President Donald Trump. The names of those not indicted included Republican U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham of Georgia, former U.S. Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue of Georgia and former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn.
Lindsay Graham is from South Carolina, don’t blame us Georgians for him, we have two Dem senators at the moment.
I think Lindsey has flipped, and several of the others, too.
These prosecutors aren’t fucking around, and these are serious charges. How many people are actually willing to go to prison for trump, who very obviously cares only about himself and will throw even his own family under the bus?
Lindsey famously said if the GOP backed trump, it would be their downfall. He’s not a loyalist, and he’s a proven coward – the exact type of person who would flip on trump.
I agree that it’s likely Lindsey Graham may have flipped. I’ve long suspected Lindsey only fell in line with Trump because he’s got dirt on him. The sniveling little weasel did a complete 180° on Trump after going golfing with him at one of Trump’s properties. Something happened that turned a vocal Trump critic into one of his biggest cheerleaders in a single afternoon and I highly doubt it was the result of a policy discussion.
So is there a time limit in which the DA would need to indict before having to go back to a grand jury? Or is this something g that will always sit over their heads as something that could be charged whenever?
I believe it’s 5 years for the statute of limitations on these particular crimes. They have plenty of time. Trump is the focus, and once that trial is either over, or well underway, indictments will come to the remaining unindicted.
I believe the judge doesn’t think further indictments are likely:
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney ordered the partial release of the report in February but declined to immediately release the panel’s recommendations on who should or should not be prosecuted. The judge said at the time that he wanted to protect people’s due process rights.
McBurney said in a new order filed Aug. 28 that the due process concerns were moot since a regular grand jury has indicted Trump and 18 other people under the state’s anti-racketeering law.
If he truly believes that not releasing the names of the unindicted protects their due process rights, then it only makes sense the reason he considers the issue moot now is because they will remain unindicted.
Does anyone else think the fact that there was at least one “No” for every charge means there was at least one Trumpist on the jury?
Yeah, that makes me seriously doubt that these people will ever be held accountable by an actual jury. Looks like a Trumper got onto the grand jury where they don’t need unanimous decisions, but if one sneaks their way onto the actual jury, then these traitors are going to get a free pass.
Even more fun? Trump’s eighteen co-conspirators starting into a legal wood chipper will be telling and telling prosecutors LOTS more about Lapdog Lindsey, Traitor Flynn, Dummy Turdue and Kelli Fluffler that the grand jury didn’t yet hear.
The party is just getting started, friends.
Don’t forget, Graham is not just any other senator. He is the ranking republican leader on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Beyond fucked up.
Why didn’t she take that fucker down? Damn it! One of the most evil people in the U.S. government. Truly.
Because she’s extremely careful, and decided she didn’t have enough to make a conviction stick.
Yet.
Give it time. She’s an excellent prosecutor, and she’s doing her job extremely well. She’s going after the people who are easily the most provably guilty first. This is a broad, far-reaching infestation of corruption and treachery, and I think she and Jack Smith are only getting started.
If Trump takes the stand and is under oath, he will say anything he can to shift culpability to others.
Allowing Trump to take the stand is probably the 2nd worse move his lawyers could make. The first is, naturally, being Trump’s lawyer.
The odds of Trump perjuring himself is so incredibly high.
Yes, but would his credibility (plus the available evidence) be enough to convict someone else, like Graham?
So many people don’t get this but it’s extremely important. Jack Smith and Fani Willis have been extremely careful and smart in the charges they have brought. They can add more later. And many think they will. But if you are going after the mob, you better make sure your charges are in order and you have a sure fire case or it will come back to bite you.
People kept asking why it was taking so long to bring charges at all - this is why. Yes, the crimes are obvious and some were even committed in public view, but if you’re going after high level government officials - if you’re going after a former president of the United States - you better make sure you have every last detail in order. For crimes of such magnitude, you can’t risk the case getting dismissed or overturned based on a frivolous detail or a minor oversight or a technicality. It has to be iron-clad and air-tight, with every ‘i’ dotted and every ‘t’ crossed.
Trump isn’t some common thief or vandal. He’s not just a crime boss or a corrupt politician. He’s a history-altering, would-be dictator who tried to stage a coup to overthrow our government. There is no room for error.
It would be a lot more difficult to indict a sitting congressperson on something like this, particularly since these can be a plausible argument that whatever they were doing could have simply falled under their official duties.
I think it’s a good move to first go after Trump and the people in his inner circle, because if that conspiracy can be proved in court, it’s an easier lift to then go after the Senators and Representatives who aided it, because one jury already found the conduct to be illegal (and thus not protected in any official capacity).
