Ricky Bobby, “If you ain’t first, you’re last.”
I cannot believe he didn’t see this. I thought everyone saw this.
The 98-page, 41-count indictment handed down by a Fulton County, Georgia, grand jury on Monday evening charges former President Donald Trump, his lawyers, and his campaign aides with multiple crimes for a nationwide challenge to the 2020 vote.
The indictment was released close to midnight on Monday after a rushed grand jury process that took just one day to consider a complicated set of allegations involving 19 defendants, including the president, across a wide array of states and jurisdictions.
The indictment does not fundamentally concern actions taken in Georgia, but describes words spoken and actions taken by the Trump campaign in a variety of other states in their efforts to cast doubt on the controversial 2020 presidential election.
The indictment charges several defendants with crimes merely for making statements that argued the 2020 election was stolen. It claims that actions such as holding public hearings in Pennsylvania amounted to acts in furtherance of an illegal conspiracy.

@willchamberlain – Fani Willis just indicted a bunch of lawyers for doing legal work
First you affirm the action, then you weaponize it.
Whatever you think of the Trump indictments, one thing is for certain: the glass has now been broken over and over again. Political opponents can be targeted by legal enemies. Running for office now carries the legal risk of going to jail — on all sides.

No, not on all sides, Ben.
Whoever made this is a genius.

I remember the amount of MSM noise Trump received for walking in front of the Queen.
Yet nothing when Biden does it to King Charles. The double standards aren’t even subtle.

Elections have consequences: Arguably the most consequential of those, in modern political history, was the election of Donald Trump in 2016.

Jeff Goldstein: Western liberalism is being replaced. What comes next is illiberal to its core.
This use of the legal system as punishment — lawfare — goes beyond mere political vindictiveness. This is, in fact, common practice post-Trump. It is the normalizing of political prosecution by partisan actors using the legal system as cover in a way that appeals to American sensibilities, especially the aesthetic, “rule of law,” which we’re conditioned to believe, in a neutral sense, we still live under. But we don’t. These aren’t real trials. They’re simulacra. We’ve become a Potemkin democracy. Nothing is as it seems. All is power. And power is all.
Oratory is pretty much a dead art. The idea that great speeches could somehow change the world seems laughably quaint now, something adult-cartoons like South Park use as an absurd 4th Wall Break/Dues Ex Machina to wrap up a 20 minute episode.
You’ll read historical accounts of some great speech defining an era, or being recorded by eager hands that it might be printed, purchased, and read across a country or oceans, or actively moving a crowd or parliament such that history is changed by the speech… And it’s almost completely incomprehensible to anyone today.
Sure we’ll read or watch Shakespeare and experience Marc Antony launch a coup by moving the crowds, or we’ll watch a Hollywood movie and see Aragorn, or some lesser character rally an army…
But these are fantastical stories for children. This isn’t Hollywood. Speeches don’t move history. It’s not some impassioned words by whatever State Department asset before congress that determines whether the American military will start a “police action” or whether we’ll have “Diplomacy”… its whether Raytheon and Lockheed Martin donated enough to right politicians last cycle.
And, in the back of our mind, we pretty much believe this is how its always been.
Sure historians might say Marc Antony actually did rally a crowd that was against him, or a a king rally a failing army; But we find it far more plausible to imagine they placed their chosen men and thugs to enforce their will, or that they bribed the right people at the right time.
This is the best thing I’ve read since I don’t know when. Grab a coffee and settle in for some fun.
Gold, Goats and Guns- Indicting Trump is the End of US Politics
And that’s what’s at the heart of this Trump indictment. Trump is the distillation of everything they need to tear down to validate their envy. He’s white, male, politically connected, a little corrupt, very cheesy and the antithesis of what middle-class bicoastal midwits believe they should be.
Successful.
They hate Trump not because he’s successful but because our society allowed for him to become successful.
The Duran- Get Trump!
It’s no-holds-barred banana republic stuff now: Trump indicted by Manhattan grand jury
The indictment comes in a case centered on a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the closing days of the 2016 presidential campaign. Daniels claimed she slept with the married Trump in 2006, a claim the former president has denied. Trump had classified his reimbursement of the payout as a legal expense.
Cernovich notes: DeSantis is listening to the wrong people.
Update: Well, he’s listening to the right people now.
The weaponization of the legal system to advance a political agenda turns the rule of law on its head.
It is un-American.
The Soros-backed Manhattan District Attorney has consistently bent the law to downgrade felonies and to excuse criminal misconduct. Yet, now he is…

Glenn Beck: “There’s going to be 100 million people that will walk on broken glass and through fire to vote for someone other than this corrupt banana republic administration”
Here is an overview of what’s really going on with Trump:
On June 22nd, 2017 Nancy Pelosi explains a common tactic used by the deep state, the ‘Wrap Up Smear.’
“It’s a diversionary tactic. It’s a self-fulfilling premise. We call it the wrap-up smear. You smear somebody with falsehoods and all the rest and then you merchandise it. And then you write it and they’ll say see.. it’s reported in the press. They have that validation that the press reported that smear. Now I’m going to merchandise the press’ report on the smear that we made. It’s a tactic and it’s self-evident.”
In 2018, Trump calls the Stormy Daniels story just another witch hunt in the never-ending attempt to bring him down. The country was becoming energy independent, free from globalism, and the media did everything in its power to psyop the people into hating him. It’s just so obvious that he’s been over the target this entire time. No President has gone through more persecution than Donald Trump and you have to ask yourself why?

According to many sources, President Donald Trump will be arrested on Tuesday. What are your predictions of what will happen on this day and in the months & years after as a result?
