That’s a light sentence, I wonder what the state got in return.

There was an article yesterday saying the prosecutor requested the grand jury not indict Trump because they weren’t sure if they had enough evidence.

I’m hoping the intent is to find more.

We may find that the states that are prosecuting the fake electors without going after Trump directly have more importance than the GA case. That case gets the most attention, because Trump is directly named in it. But it also gets the most attention from Republicans seeking to protect their God Emperor.

These other cases are just as important, because they establish that this fake elector nonsense has no basis in law, and people who try to pull it off will be prosecuted as the lying liars they are. It makes it harder for Trump to try this again, because if it doesn’t work the people who helped him will know for certain they they will be investigated by the States. They can o longer claim it is anything other than a coup attempt.

A coup attempt that doesn’t result in any jail time or tangible consequences. But, oh well, I’m sure once we get Republicans to say something they’ll definitely stand by it and let that guide their future actions, it’s not like they’ve shown themselves to be persistent liars who are obsessed with obtaining political power however they have to do it or anything. /s

e; I agree with the general argument that holding state level Republicans accountable is just as if not more important, fwtw

… Yet. Even if it takes a while to get there, and even if the head guy might get off, all the folks who actually did the dirty work are still being prosecuted, and do not have the unlimited legal/campaign funds that he has to gum up the works. It will make it much harder to find people willing to throw their life into chaos to support a man who will ignore them the first chance he gets.

9 fucking felonies. “Unsupervised probation”. What tf.

The average person gets caught with a bowl of weed (a single misdemeanor) in a red state and all the sudden probation officers are stopping by their house unannounced, they’re peeing on cups twice a month, and they, under threat of imprisionment and slavery, they are forced to give up constitutional rights.

This is some bullshit.

Well over 3 years later. Take your time. It’s not like a lack of justice would affect democracy or anything…

Thrillhouse ,

And you have that gross Stephen Miller dude on Ari Melber last night claiming that the fake electors were totally legitimate and just citizens practicing free speech being victimized by the government. He was screeching like a Karen about it.
