Something does feel different about this indictment.




@thejackhopkins
The United States of America is tired of Donald Trump’s bullshit. It’s about to come to a sudden halt. He can’t buy his way out of this. He can’t threaten his way out of this. Donald John Trump is DONE.

He won’t be the nominee. He will never again hold any office. His grasp on the GOP is slipping rapidly…and it will let go completely very soon.

You might not believe that. That’s okay. What I’ve laid out doesn’t require anyone to believe it,for it to happen. It will happen. Who will be the nominee? I don’t know yet. I just know who it won’t be: it won’t be Donald Trump.

TONIGHT will go down in history as a turning point. August 14th, 2023. History is being made….now.

@EdKrassen
Where is the line drawn for what constitutes potential witness tampering?

Trump, this morning, made this Truth Social post, attacking Former Georgia Lt. Gov Geoff Duncan who is reportedly testifying against him in front of Fani Willis' Fulton County Grand Jury.

"I am reading reports that failed former Lt. Governor of Georgia, Jeff Duncan, will be testifying before the Fulton County Grand Jury. He shouldn’t. I barely know him but he was, right from the beginning of this Witch Hunt, a nasty disaster for those looking into the Election Fraud that took place in Georgia. He refused having a Special Session to find out what went on, became very unpopular with Republicans (I refused to endorse him!), and fought the TRUTH all the way. A loser, he went to FNCNN!"

This is definitely not a threat but it does seem to be a push to intimidate Duncan?

Where should the line be drawn?

1. Thx for posting this...it gives me a lot of hope

2. Interesting OP, how do GA Republicans wiggle out of this one?

Fire the DA?

Historically, do you see the trial more like O.J., or Nuremberg? Eichmann was described at the time as appearing so normal, the banality of evil, everyone just went along because it was the thing to do. Nazis were a cult too.

6. Republicans in the state house were more than willing to pass laws to suppress voting and

ensure their future elections, but I don’t see that they have much wiggle room to do anything. The governor also does not seem to be a big Trump fan. Eventually Trump could be pardoned, but it would have to be by the State Board of Pardons and Paroles. It’s five members are appointed by the governor, so they may all be Republicans, but they’re not running for election so they’re less likely to be swayed by current politics or threats from Trump.

8. And that pardon can only be considered after a sentence has been served in its entirety and...

3. Well

Just going by the defendant’s recent and distant history, he is probably the last person that you could count on to not intimidate witnesses, jurors or judges, or prosecutors, etc. So with that in mind, if I were the judge, it would be no doubt in my mind I would put him in Jail until the completion of the trial.

Of course, as we know, and obviously by design, the defendant has been running for president again for quite some time to hopefully preclude a judge from doing that very thing, while he continues to do all the things the judge’s tell him not to do.

Seems to me the only effective way to handle the defendant is to put a muzzle on him by putting him in jail and censor every communication that he makes while he’s in jail. In addition, since he has to obviously meet with his lawyers for legal consultation while in jail, you have to tell all of his attorneys that they too, will be subject, to all kinds of criminal prosecution if they communicate any intimidations to the people that the judge has precluded him from intimidating.

Of course probably none of the above will happen, and we will all have a ringside seat to watch the non stop nonsense the defendant is constantly entertaining us with.

4. "He shouldn't." "This is definitely not a threat"?

More like a warning, and if a warning is not a threat it's news to me.

5. I posted this yesterday before the news hit.....

Trump Suggested A Witness ‘Shouldn’t’ Testify In Georgia’s Grand Jury Proceedings—Critics Say That’s Witness Intimidation"

https://www.forbes.com/sites/mollybohannon/2023/08/14/trump-suggested-a-witness-shouldnt-testify-in-georgias-grand-jury-proceedings-critics-say-thats-witness-intimidation/?sh=32d8e07157be

"Former President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social, his social media platform, on Monday saying Georgia’s former Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan “shouldn’t” testify in grand jury proceedings this week regarding allegations that Trump attempted to overturn the 2020 election results in the state—and some legal analysts are saying the post could be witness intimidation or tampering."

7. "A loser, he went to FNCNN!"

What's FNCNN?

I swear, there's so much happening so fast, I can't keep up! (That's NOT a complaint, just a statement of fact. )

[littlemissmartypants]

9. F_ _ _ IN CNN...?

[ShazzieB]

10. Could be.

I never would have even thought of that, ha!

Is Duncan working for CNN now? (I wouldn’t know because I never watch them.) If so, it fits.
