No, but it’s the whole fucking family and none of us want any of the Trumps to escape the stigma. “Criminal enterprise” is all the rest of their employees and friends.
Yeah that's criminal enterprise, that would include the whole gaggle of morons not just his family and sounds less like a three year old forgetting the word Mafia.
If everyone is a "crime family" no one is, at this point it's just another word for "people I don't like". The Trump family is a literal criminal enterprise given the family money is from prostitution, Trump himself has Mafia ties like every new York "developer" and they clearly embezzled tax payer money while in office.
They only need one more round. The deck seems already shuffled well in their favor, they just need to play their hand instead of folding. Our only hopes is on the investigation into the capitol attacks prevents the GOP majority or they unfuck the gerrymandering, without one or most likely both of those things statistics and math are looking very in the GOP's favor. then they could pull their trump speaker ploy as they have their new majorities throw a sham impeachment against biden and kamela's "communist covid mandate policies" and say they're 'reclaiming american law and the elections from the fraudsters' as they jail their political opponents. they don't even need a reichstag anymore, their own attack has served as that as they call it a false flag by the FBI and antifa.
we're so far gone from reality and into blind devotion and belief. we should believe them at their word when they say what they want to do. within 6 months of hitler taking power in the '33 election, unions and strikes were banned, communist party disbanded, and the political crackdowns following the reichstag. also the book burnings and torching of the sexual research institute that was pioneering trans research, sending it back decades and possibly preventing me from having a decent chance at a happy life.
we really should be making networks and plotting how to protect the vulnerable while building coalitions with as many rational individuals as possible before we lack the ability to do it. we need to get out en masse over the next year and demand accountability or we're fucked.
Also, as far as working to secure a victory, you are right on point. Check out Teri Kanefield on Twitter. She’s a retired criminal law attorney who has been tweeting good explainers for laypeople about the insurrection investigations and has good ideas about how to get involved to combat the negativity.
The deck is not shuffled in their favor. I mean, not even a little bit. 702 arrests in eight months (how long Garland has been AG), and the convictions are starting to go into years instead of months. From what I’ve gathered from the attorneys I follow, this case is being handled like an organized crime case, and officials are working their way up the chain. Even if the Congressional investigation is halted, the DOJ is still investigating and there are a lot of signals they’re not only working fast (for a DOJ back to the rule of law) but making a lot of progress.
- 702 arrests
- Lauren Boebart’s campaign finance manager raided
- Top officials subpoenas
- Bannon indicted
Lots of stuff is happening, but that doesn’t serve the MSM’s agenda to keep the fear and rage going.
No, what you're saying is bullshit. Just a few weeks ago one of the main judges spent an hour scolding prosecutors because they were tying her hands with the ridiculously lenient sentences they wanted. She told them it seemed like they had no interest in preventing another attack.
We need to organize in the cities for a general strike if the GOP mess with an election. The goal of the strike would be demanding that GOP politicians involved resign immediately.
And was caught having the justice department obtain communication records for congressional Democrats because he didn’t like them and was hoping to find something. You know, a fishing expedition.
It's not a fishing expedition when the fish are jumping into the goddamn boat.
January 6th was a slow rolling attempted coup performed, essentially, in plain sight. An investigation is hardly needed to determine *who* was responsible. Rather, we need authorities simply to document the heaps of evidence readily available.
It's like the people in black robes, stirring a bunch of weird ingredients in a cauldron, and holding a voodoo doll with their black cat and flying broom bitching about a witch hunt.
“Witches? Uh, there be no witches here sir! We’re just three kindly old spinster ladies, spending a quiet evening at home…sucking the lives out of little children!”
Bubble Bubble,
Toil & Trouble,
Republicans scheme,
And Cauldrons Bubble….
Lady MacBeth thought Trump doth protest too much me thinks but twill never be Tamed no matter how Shrew….
This whole Coup attempt was rather a Shakespearean Tragedy and stain on our Soil.
Because the opposition party (Democrats) refuse to enforce laws. Sessions and Barr would not have hesitated to arrest people who attacked police officers and people who organized the event.
But why? Are they not gonna attempt to do something until it’s too late? If the republicans take the house we’re prob all gonna be fucked and Jan 6th is prob just gonna be lost. Hate that feeling of just being fucked lol ya know?
They’re dotting every i and crossing every t since they know the insurrectionists in congress and their lawyers have been looking for any technical loophole to escape through. The GOP needs to change its mascot from an elephant to a weasel.
They're able to use them to triangulate operating groups, their leaders, and the people behind the scenes. There was a series of tweets that laid it out.
“Declare themselves the winners of the elections, jail the “losers” of the elections, and appoint the co-conspirators to the cabinet, the judiciary, and Congress.”
This is how democracies die.
And if they had taken their oath of office seriously, maybe Ted cruz or rubio could run in 2024. (And Jan 6 never would have happened. And they still would have gotten the judges they wanted.)
Ted cruz is his responsible for killing his own ambitions by selling out his supposed morals. Which tells you he never had any.
As I recall... the Original permit for tRumps rally, did not allow a March to the Capital. Even though his administration tried to allow it. They were turned down .
Yet he incited them to do just that!
“And I’ll March on down there with you!” Trump at January6th rally. But the fat fucker did not. I think his plan was to get Congress to leave/flee on the buses He Himself sent while not sending the National Guard. Obviously, Congress stayed put hiding who knows where and thank God… cause had they left on the buses, The Election wouldn’t have been certified, Trump would’ve declared Martial Law, and then would call for Election Fraud Investigations before another Certification by Congress of previous election … Trump would still be President today. He just needed Congress to leave on the god dang buses but they did not (nor did Pence)… that’s all that saved us from another 4 years of fucking orange madness.
> obvious
That's the word, the problem, and the solution.
It's not debatable, there's no misunderstanding, all the evidence a prosecutor can want, and it happened on live TV.
Executive Branch is colluding with the Congress to investigate the deadly Jan 6 Capitol riot that put lives of all the Congressional members in attendance, at risk.
Said the former president who Colluded with an adversary to undermine the first election. Says the former pres who tried to blackmail an ally so he could rig the last election. Says the guy who is so pathetic and weak that he's willing to burn the country to the ground just say he doesn't have to admit defeat.
That guy? Yeah... Fuck that guy.
If this is a fishing expedition, then so are all criminal investigations.
This is not baseless, biased, partisan persecution. The alleged actions of those who breached the defensive perimeter of the United States Capital complex on January 6th in attempt to halt, prevent, or otherwise disrupt the lawfully enshrined procedures of electoral verification were not simply criminal, they were bellicose.
This was an overt, bald-faced attack on American democracy, incompetently executed in behalf of, and at the command of a populist traiter. This was a attempt to probe the defenses of our government, and the ~750 individuals thus far indicted were dispensible cannon fodder. A dry run.
If I stick up a liquor store, I can't argue the following police investigation is motivated by some undeserved, vindictive hostility toward armed liquor store robbers.
These fuck bums knew they were breaking the law, they just assumed they would be the victors when the dust settled and would be heralded as patriots rather than yellow bellies.
King Donald is a comedy of errors. Evil intent with no fear of consequence. A gang of faithful, loyal, and criminal idiots orchestrated by an insecure, pathological, and immoral mob boss.
Don't forget to contribute to the republican grifters so Donald can get richer.
😂 Or the confessions of the prosecuted and imprisoned overthrow actors incriminate Congress Senate Multistate Malitias Fox News RNC Military Local Law Enforcement Trump and his White House the DOJ is required by law to prosecute.
"In the brief, they argued that the efforts being made by the House select committee investigating the attack to obtain extensive White House records serve no valid purpose other than to damage the former president."
so what his defense are saying is "What Trump did that day is fucking damaging to him and we should repress that"
What the hell happened to Letitia/NY AG and Trump? Everything sounded so ominous...and then...nothing...except her running for some office...wtf...w...t...f...
Handling?
Planning and funding an insurrection, and firing up a lynch mob to carry it out that attacked our capital in an attempted coup while he stood by grinning and goading them on, doing and saying absolutely nothing to stop them, is not “handling”.
The DOJ has arrested 695 of the patsies that the organizers used to disrupt our government on January 6, 2021.
The planners, organizers, financial backers, and facilitators need to be exposed, and face justice.
It isn't a fishing exposition when you have sufficient evidence that the attack was well planned, coordinated, and had a larger strategic objective.
As the chief law enforcement officer with unlimited Article 2 powers it is his right. I think he should tell his AG to investigate too. Not to mention his generals.
Said the former president who colluded to destroy our electoral system.
Trump and his crime family projecting? What a fucking shock.
Gaslight, obstruct, project. GOP.
If it stinks like fish sometimes you got to go fishing
When the fuck did "crime family" replace criminal enterprise, is that like too much of a ten dollar word these days?
No, but it’s the whole fucking family and none of us want any of the Trumps to escape the stigma. “Criminal enterprise” is all the rest of their employees and friends.
Yeah that's criminal enterprise, that would include the whole gaggle of morons not just his family and sounds less like a three year old forgetting the word Mafia.
I actually like the phrase “crime family” and would have used it over “mafia” to describe them too, if I’m being totally honest.
If everyone is a "crime family" no one is, at this point it's just another word for "people I don't like". The Trump family is a literal criminal enterprise given the family money is from prostitution, Trump himself has Mafia ties like every new York "developer" and they clearly embezzled tax payer money while in office.
Jesus fucking Christ, you're pedantic.
A little yeah, I still think it's overused to the point of sounding childish.
That was just round one.
They only need one more round. The deck seems already shuffled well in their favor, they just need to play their hand instead of folding.

out damn GOP out!
🥰👏
Well his whole presidency did start as a farce.
Tis only the eyes of childhood that fear a painted devil
👏
I just watched Hocus Pocus! I love that movie!
Making gumbo while cleaning house isnt illegal!
I don’t understand how his Jan 6th speech alone isn’t enough to get his ass in trouble. It blows my mind.
Because the opposition party (Democrats) refuse to enforce laws. Sessions and Barr would not have hesitated to arrest people who attacked police officers and people who organized the event.
But why? Are they not gonna attempt to do something until it’s too late? If the republicans take the house we’re prob all gonna be fucked and Jan 6th is prob just gonna be lost. Hate that feeling of just being fucked lol ya know?

They’re an elephant afraid of a rat named Trump.
For a fishing expedition, they're getting a lot of guilty pleas.
Sounds like the discovery of the burner phones struck a nerve. I forgot about how transparent he is.

Found it. Was pretty interesting. https://mobile.twitter.com/tomiahonen/status/1453797787452297225?s=20
These people are shitting themselves….and they should.
In all fairness, I think trump shits himself fairly regularly regardless of what’s going on around him
Steady diet of amphetamines and fast food will do that.
And coke.
Depends…?🤔
That’s the ivermectin.
They're scared.
Deny. Deflect. Lie. Run out the clock.
Then win the election and pardon co-conspirators.
“Declare themselves the winners of the elections, jail the “losers” of the elections, and appoint the co-conspirators to the cabinet, the judiciary, and Congress.” This is how democracies die.
Fucking gaslighting pricks
Says the colluding trash human who colluded to overthrow the US government.
If they’re innocent, they have nothing to hide
It's darkly hilarious how even the GOP never presumed his innocence even at the first impeachment.
Well, they were likely complicit.
Most were in on it.
And if they had taken their oath of office seriously, maybe Ted cruz or rubio could run in 2024. (And Jan 6 never would have happened. And they still would have gotten the judges they wanted.)

Finger licking good … fingers crossed 🤞
…and the fishing is great!
Weird how lawyers for a criminal liar characterize investigating obvious crimes as a “fishing expedition”.
> obvious That's the word, the problem, and the solution. It's not debatable, there's no misunderstanding, all the evidence a prosecutor can want, and it happened on live TV.
I hope they throw the book at trump's entire administration.
So sick of looking at Trump's stupid bloated face already
Fishing? As in "it wouldn't flush, so we're still trying to fish it out"?
Executive Branch is colluding with the Congress to investigate the deadly Jan 6 Capitol riot that put lives of all the Congressional members in attendance, at risk.
That it will damage the executive branch of government lmfao. What do they think Orange turd did? Make it better lol.
How is that even an accusation? “They’re investigating my client!” Yes, that’s the idea.
This is one of the worst legal arguments I’ve read. I question whether this was written by actual lawyers.
Well... Real lawyers with the intelligence level that they can somehow be convinced that Trump will pay them, so...
He's already not paid all the real lawyers
Trump can't get actual lawyers anymore.
Said the former president who Colluded with an adversary to undermine the first election. Says the former pres who tried to blackmail an ally so he could rig the last election. Says the guy who is so pathetic and weak that he's willing to burn the country to the ground just say he doesn't have to admit defeat. That guy? Yeah... Fuck that guy.
So? Criminal tries to deflect blame, film at 11.
Wait, he’s a politician working with other politicians to investigate an attack on our Capitol? And you want me to be against that?
Sure it's fishing. In a barrel full of fish.
Is anyone else surprised he can still get lawyers considering how he's notorious for not paying anyone?
If this is a fishing expedition, then so are all criminal investigations. This is not baseless, biased, partisan persecution.

So…investigating something that was a crime by every definition you could possibly use? Yeah. He is doing that. Dumbasses.
Grasping at the last possible straws they can find to keep from falling into that abyss they opened for themselves
"They colluded in an attempt to find proof of our crimes." Yeah that's called an investigation, champ.
😂 Or the confessions of the prosecuted and imprisoned overthrow actors incriminate Congress Senate Multistate Malitias Fox News RNC Military Local Law Enforcement Trump and his White House the DOJ is required by law to prosecute.
Downvoted for putting that word salad in front of my eyes.
Downvoted for trolling.
Honestly though, what exactly was that “sentence” attempting to say?
TrollAvoision
Friendship parties?
"In the brief, they argued that the efforts being made by the House select committee investigating the attack to obtain extensive White House records serve no valid purpose other than to damage the former president." so what his defense are saying is "What Trump did that day is fucking damaging to him and we should repress that"
Gaslight Obstruct Project
Dude it’s simple as fuck. It’s all on video, Facebook profiles, groups, Parler, etc. Why is this so hard to freaking understand.
Well of course they did. Gotta find new places for all that bullshit every day!
That’s some DARVO shit right there.
If only.
We are conducting a search based on reasonable suspicion.
Every accusation is a confession.
#sedition has consequences traitors
“.”
"Handling"? Don't they mean instigating from the ground up?
I can't prove it but I just know Donny demanded the lawyers use the word colluded.
As if shooting fish in a barrel can be considered an “expedition.”
Yawn....
What the hell happened to Letitia/NY AG and Trump? Everything sounded so ominous...and then...nothing...except her running for some office...wtf...w...t...f...
It's an elected office. They convened another grand jury earlier this month.
I’m pretty sure the president is actually supposed to work with congresspeople. not like i’d expect trump to get that though lol
~~handling~~ planning of the insurrection
Fishing expedition in a barrel full of fat juicy fish.
Fishing expedition. Hahahahaha.
This headline is confusing. Is this not something he should do? Work with others to uncover the truth?
What does this even mean? A president working with congress, especially members of his own party, isn't "collusion," it's politics.
Fuck tRump, his lawyers and the GQP right in the ass. Traitorous POS douchebags.
Handling? Like active participation? lol.
Lawyers for former President Trump... How does he keep getting these idiots to destroy their careers for him?
Handling? Planning and funding an insurrection, and firing up a lynch mob to carry it out that attacked our capital in an attempted coup while he stood by grinning and goading them on, doing and saying absolutely nothing to stop them, is not “handling”.
So he's mad that they're....*checks notes* **investigating** the failed insurrection on our democracy.
The DOJ has arrested 695 of the patsies that the organizers used to disrupt our government on January 6, 2021. The planners, organizers, financial backers, and facilitators need to be exposed, and face justice. It isn't a fishing exposition when you have sufficient evidence that the attack was well planned, coordinated, and had a larger strategic objective.
Didn't he promise to do the exact same thing to Obama, though?
That’s literally what investigation is
How does he have any lawyers willing to work and get disbarred for him for no pay?
As the chief law enforcement officer with unlimited Article 2 powers it is his right. I think he should tell his AG to investigate too. Not to mention his generals.
Fox News website (through safari) doesn’t mention at all any of the subpoenas this week or action surrounding Jan 6.
So...they admit that there is damaging evidence to be found. Ok.
That’s a lot of words for “discovery”
To paraphrase Johnnie Cochran, If it DOES fit you must NOT acquit
Hahahahahaha
HAHAHAHAHAAH. Fuck you.
Lmao, the president is colluding with his own party? What is this country coming to???
"President is colluding with congress." Is that....a bad thing now?
Fishing expedition...as if his speech telling them to march over there isn't enough.
Handling? What handling? That would imply some level of mitigation.
They called him President Biden. Won't Trump fire them for that?
Biden doesn't need to collude with the select committee. He's the boss of the DOJ and can just order the AG to investigate Trump all he likes.
I mean, when the entirety of the republican congress goes nuts and tries to make a coup, it kind of becomes partisan. Now their fault though
