This is what republicans mean by “protecting women”

She… she plead guilty.

So probably not guilty then

So… 1, 0.99, very high likelihood.

Trumps DOJ targeted her, and she pled guilty.

Both of those things tell me she is very likely not guilty.

This isn’t like an accused street criminal getting basically conned into pleading guilty because the cops planted evidence and got a false witness to make a false testimony.

This is the known to be corrupt FBI (under trump) going after somebody who looks different, for a bogeyman crime that we know they dont actually care about.

This is a person who would not be targeted by that kind of thing and can afford good lawyers.

The DOJ has been very specifically targeting exactly that kind of person. And Republicans dont care about lawyers because they dont care about the law.

She was the mayor.

ok?

So what are the chances she was actually an agent for the Chinese Government? Slightly better than 0? Actually 0?

you have to register as such with the US government.

You very clearly don’t, you just have to be working for Russia and its fine.

Fucking yeah I sure hope so. Even the scum of the earth like this deserve due process

Due process involves discovery, where the full unredacted documents would have been turned over…

Due process doesn’t mean you can just refuse to follow the law.

Im sure that will last a whole 5 minutes

I don’t know if those claims hold water.

uh huh, im sure you dont.

Who is assaulting people associated with the SPLC again?

The federal government, who have demonstrated that they are downright eager to harrass, assault and/or execute anybody who isnt particularly fond of Nazis the KKK or christofascists in general (or anybody who embarrasses them in any way).

And the costs associated with litigation are largely attorney’s fees…

Sure, which the SPLC now has to spend defending itself against spurious lawsuits instead of helping people.

The Fed doesnt care about the cost, they can make taxpayers pay for it. They dont care if they win or lose, winning or losing isnt the point (although the courts may be corrupt enough anyways).

Thats not the point.

The point is that the DOJ now sends a bunch of people to harass and assault anybody associated with the SPLC. Doesnt matter if the DOJ looses, they dont care about that, just dragging the case out to cost the SPLC money.

You dont need standards when the goal isnt to hire competent people.

They are just looking for sycophant’s, as long as you have no idea what the laws say but you can blame “demonrats” for whatever problems conservatives cause, you are exactly what they are looking for.

If you honestly believe this way, you have been dangerously radicalized.

Sorry, cheering for political violence is just normal now. The right has been pushing and supporting political violence so hard that its…just not radical anymore.

Sure, this time it might not have been somebody on the right, but it doesn’t really matter. Once political violence becomes normal, it becomes normal.

Wait, you mean the proudly corrupt conservative government is being corrupt on a betting platform while callously playing with the lives of the American soldiers they have so much contempt for?

Im shocked, shocked I tell you
