B-Man Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 FTA: The special counsel’s hardest task is to try to distinguish what Trump did from what Joe Biden, Mike Pence and many others have done. I take it that the willfulness of Trump’s retaining documents after the National Archives asked for them, along with charges alleging the conspiracy to obstruct justice, making false statements, etc., serve this function. Will it work? I doubt it. I think most people will see no significant difference between Trump’s actions and Biden’s, and will consider this prosecution another manifestation of America’s two-tiered system of justice. They will be right to do so, although Trump’s own stubbornness and poor judgment also distinguish this case from Biden’s or Pence’s. If Trump had been trying to get himself indicted he wouldn’t have done anything differently. I don’t think any of these charges have merit. On the other hand, all of them stem, to one degree or another, from Trump’s poor judgment and personality flaws. Together, they add up to an amount of baggage that many Republican primary voters will consider unacceptable. He is scheduled to go to trial in the New York case at the end of March–the height of the primary season. It may well be that during most of the primaries, Trump will be appealing a criminal conviction and a jail sentence. Democratic voters have a elected a mayor or two from a prison cell, but that may be a bridge too far for Republican presidential primary voters. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2023/06/trump-in-the-crosshairs.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Hillary Clinton is reacting to former President Trump’s federal indictment by making a pitch for her “But Her Emails” merchandise. The 2016 Democratic presidential nominee took to social media Friday — just hours after Trump announced Thursday that his legal team had been told he was indicted following an investigation into his handling of classified documents — with a plug for her tongue-in-cheek swag. “Bringing this back in light of recent news,” Clinton told her more than 31 million Twitter followers. “Get a limited-edition But Her Emails hat and support @onwardtogther groups working to strengthen our democracy,” she added. The $32, made-in-the-U.S. caps emblazoned with the words “But Her Emails” are described as “unstructured dad hats” on Onward Together’s sales page. https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/4042352-hillary-clinton-responds-to-trump-indictment-with-but-her-emails-merch-pitch/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All_Pro_Bills Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) 2 hours ago, John from Riverside said: As I have said, before, I am against wrongdoing by any party But this is not evidence you know that it’s not evidence there are a lot of allegations I’m always willing to listen they say they’ve got some thing coming up and they say they can prove it let’s see because so far they haven’t I'd suggest our difference of opinion is centered on the definition of evidence. And while I didn't use the word "evidence" in my response for the sake of argument I'll retract references to that word. And for the sake of that argument I'll define "evidence" as testimony or exhibits presented in a court of law as evidence. All of which has yet to happen. Given that, I'll center my argument around the legal concept of sufficient "probable cause" to provide the likelihood that a crime has been committed. Probable cause being the threshold of reasonable suspicion a court would use to issue warrants or agree to proceed with a case against an individual. Evidence a prosecutor would claim to have when presenting a case for an indictment to a grand jury. So given the large amount of suspicious activity supported by witness statements, physical items, and transactions like bank wire transfers of money from one account to another in the name of suspected individuals under scrutiny, would you agree there is probable cause to suspect a crime has been committed which requires a more thorough and detailed investigation by the Department of Justice? One additional comment: It's intriguing to me that both statements by Bobulinsk and the FBI whistleblower's statements about the FBI form FD-1023 document both, and most importantly independently each other, refer to Joe Biden as "the big guy". Tell me that's a coincidence. Edited June 9, 2023 by All_Pro_Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For my part, I think they both did it wrong I think that’s kind of puzzling me as I’m hearing this two-tiered justice system There definitely is, but not like how you think if your average worker did with these people did, they would have their security clearances, revoked, and at best be fired at worst be looking at jail time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
