Donald Trump's threats to NY DA Alvin Bragg Violate Both NY and fed criminal statutes. - G Kirschner

[TexasTowelie]

As former president Donald Trump continues to violate federal and local laws, this time by threatening the very prosecutor who in preparing to indict him for his earlier crimes in New York, the American people are left to wonder why no law enforcement officials have seen fit to step up and address these crimes by charging Donald Trump.

Trump's threats violate New York State law section 195.05 - threatening a government official in an attempt to interfere with official duties. Trump threats also violate federal law - 18 US Code section 875c - be transmitting in interstate commerce a threat to injure a person, which is precisely what Trump did when he posted (thereby transmitting in interstate commerce) a picture of himself appearing two swing a baseball bat at DA Bragg.

1. I'm sure the authorities will get right on this. :(

3. Hey its only been 7 years since he was going to pay for his criminality.

Are we suckers or what?

[Irish_Dem]

4. Voters get the leadership they deserve.

Yep Americans are suckers and love criminal grifters.

[dem4decades]

7. Voters? How about DOJ getting off their asses?

[Irish_Dem]

9. The US government answers to We The People.

So the people need to get off their asses and demand that the DOJ does its job.

Trump has committed so many crimes. And much of his crime spree is well documented
by videos, pictures, tweets, witness statements. The public witnesses the crimes in
real time and after the fact.

All we ask is the the US act like a NATION OF LAWS.

[dem4decades]

11. We the people? No. A nation of laws. Actually that's wrong too.

A nation of laws for the little people. By the way, Steve Bannon has been found GUILTY and still walks the streets. Such bullshit. And people think Trump will ever be held accountable ‽ what a joke.

[Irish_Dem]

12. Then we have officially become a fascist, autocratic form of government.

[dem4decades]

13. With lipstick on it. Or orange makeup and blonde dye.

[Rhiannon12866]

15. And all of it is on video, taped, or both.

This clueless moran still has no idea that anything that a U.S. president says or does is recorded for the news - and posterity. That was his mistake when he attempted to commit his numerous crimes - the evidence is readily accessible.

[Irish_Dem]

16. Yes. We have seen some of his crimes in real time on TV.

Or on Twitter, videos, etc.

Trump doesn't care. He assumes he can bully and threaten his way out of consequences.
And so far he has been successful.

He really is like a mob boss.

[Rhiannon12866]

17. Because he's never faced consequences before, he believes he's "above the law"

It's long past time that he was proved wrong - thanks to Fani Willis, Letitia James, Alvin Bragg - and Jack Smith!

[Irish_Dem]

18. Yes he is reality based in his belief system.

Every day he commits more crimes, the talking head attorneys on TV tell us all about it.
And nothing ever happens.

It really is unbelievable.

[Alexander Of Assyria]

10. No authority can get on this or anything like it...no hate speech laws.

[dem4decades]

2. Thanks Glenn but nobody cares what Trump does. He can, and does

Whatever he wants.

[Irish_Dem]

5. Hey Glenn change the name of your damn show to "Justice DOESN'T Matter."

6. NY has allowed the Trump family to escape prosecution since 1885 when his family landed here.

I protested against DJ and his father's shady shit in NYC in 1978-1981. Why would anyone expect a DA to do what none has done in nearly 150 years?

[dem4decades]

8. It looks like the powers that be are all in it together. Laws are for nobodies.

[republianmushroom]

14. Are they going to arrest and indict because of the treats.

Don't think so.

26 months and counting
