scroll down to page 13 for all of their names...

I wonder if the Republitards in Georgia will try to remove Fani Willis...

 

[TX-Beau]

Of course, some of them will try, that was the entire point of lying and passing that law that goes into effect this fall when they promised and promised it wouldn't until after Dec 2024.

Finally.

One of the things I like about this case is that it ties Trump directly into the fake elector scheme to steal the election.

And it finally includes Guiliani and Sidney Powell in the list of indicted co-conspirators.

One of the other things I love about these indictments?

As the Guardian article outlines, they are a victory for voters' rights. Any convictions will hopefully send the message to the GQP that stealing the votes in black districts, as they were trying to do, comes with consequences.

For the voting rights leaders who worked tirelessly to deliver Democratic wins in Georgia, Trump’s indictment in Fulton county marked a clear rebuke of his extensive efforts to disenfranchise the state’s voters, reaffirming the sanctity and the power of the ballot.

“This indictment is a win for voting rights and democracy because it strengthens our ability to defend it from its most imminent threat: Donald Trump,” said Xakota Espinoza, a spokesperson for the Georgia-based voting rights group Fair Fight. “It is critical that we send a message that our democracy is sacrosanct, whether it is at the ballot box or courthouse.”

It will be interested to see if all the indicted co-conspirators hang together or hang separately.

I have read a number of articles and even posts within this thread regarding the Constitution prohibiting Trump from running for office because of the things he has done. What steps have to be taken to make that happen? Does he have to be convicted first?

He could still run if convicted. Weird huh?

He could be imprisoned and still president.

This in a country where many states strip convicts of their right to vote.

Of course, the GQP are right behind Trump.

And he's right out there grifting.

On Monday night, after charges were filed in Georgia, an email soliciting donations bemoaned a “FOURTH ACT of Election Interference on behalf of the Democrats in an attempt to keep the White House under Crooked Joe’s control and JAIL his single greatest opponent of the 2024 election”.

So Trump is going to go all Mike Lindell on our asses and release the conclusive report that will result in all the charges being dropped.

Ketchup anyone?

There would be a lawsuit, that would in effect put him on trial for the violation of the 14th Amendment. It would end up in the Supreme Court years after Nov. 24, 2024. If he lost, he would be barred from holding public office. That would of course be easier if he was criminally convicted of the same thing, but they aren't the same. One puts him in prison, and one bars him from being president. It's possible to lose one and not the other, both, or neither. He could be found guilty and not found in violation of the Constitution.

There have been a bunch of efforts to apply that law, but so far none have gained any steam. Mostly because people are unwilling (Trogs and pubs and no small number of "independents") to see the elephant in the room.

I would guess that it's unnecessary to say we are in unknown territory. He's got a lot of trials both criminal and civil, the laws around all of this have simply never been used before. There are no precedents. Not that Uncle Thomas and the Supremes care about that anyway.

Anyone else hear the dog whistle in the post on truth social?
