We know from early reporting after Jan 6 that the fake electors presented their ballots and there was a process that was used to contest the real ballots and put a delay on the results of the election.
My question is, why can't we just round up these people and start a trial now ? I understand that Jack Smith is conducting a trial/investigation on the whole thing with all the participants of Jan 6. I am talking about just charging the participants of the crimes committed by our own legislators . The actual people that were trying the change the results of the election. The crime that was committed right in front of us! Jordan and Hawley and Biggs, Loudermouth, Flynn and others. Leaving them in place is just causing very long term damage. They are constantly trying to change public opinion and subvert the current administration.
The other day, after Smirnov was caught lying Jordan continued to say that there was more to investigate. I found myself yelling at the tv! Jordan is one of the instigators/participants!!!! Why can't we prosecute the main players in a public trial like Watergate? Who cares if its a election year. I don't care if there is immunity being a legislator. This was treason. Immunity goes out the window when you commit certain crimes IMHO. Would it screw up the Jack Smith trial ? I don't think it would. It would show the world our justice system is working. Right now we are completely stuck seemingly not able to go forward or backwards. I don't want this to just sound like venting or frustration I am asking a real question here. Are there legal reasons why these treasonist's can just continue on like nothing happened ?
