Nice fantasy, but he will never be charged, let alone convicted, let alone incarcerated. He’s been escaping justice for forty years, and he isn’t even being indicted.
What is amazing is how long Trump’s criminal family has been allowed to operate. Trump’s dad and grandfather set up the grift. Why were they allowed to get away with crimes so long? Was it their social circles and perceived wealth?
Two Justices Say Supreme Court Should Reconsider Landmark Libel Decision
Justice Neil M. Gorsuch added his voice to that of Justice Clarence Thomas in questioning the longstanding standard for public officials set in New York Times v. Sullivan.
Justice Thomas denounced the explosion of conspiracy theories and other disinformation. He cited a news report on “the shooting at a pizza shop rumored to be ‘the home of a Satanic child sex abuse ring involving top Democrats such as Hillary Clinton’” and a New York Times article on “how online posts falsely labeling someone as ‘a thief, a fraudster and a pedophile’ can spark the need to set up a home-security system.”
“The proliferation of falsehoods is, and always has been, a serious matter,” Justice Thomas wrote. “Instead of continuing to insulate those who perpetrate lies from traditional remedies like libel suits, we should give them only the protection the First Amendment requires.”
Justice Gorsuch wrote that much had changed since 1964, suggesting that the actual malice doctrine might have made more sense when there were fewer and more reliable sources of news, dominated by outlets “employing legions of investigative reporters, editors and fact checkers.”
“Large numbers of newspapers and periodicals have failed,” he wrote. “Network news has lost most of its viewers. With their fall has come the rise of 24-hour cable news and online media platforms that ‘monetize anything that garners clicks.’
“What started in 1964 with a decision to tolerate the occasional falsehood to ensure robust reporting by a comparative handful of print and broadcast outlets,” he wrote, “has evolved into an ironclad subsidy for the publication of falsehoods by means and on a scale previously unimaginable.”
Oath Keepers turn on each other as they scramble to secure Capitol riot plea deals
According to a report from the Daily Beast’s Kelly Weill, members of the Oath Keepers militia— reportedly comprised of former law enforcement officers and military vets — are breaking ranks and pointing fingers at each other as they pursue plea bargain deals related to their participation in the Jan 6th Capitol insurrection.
While the Wall Street Journal has been reporting on internal strife as members question how the organization’s founder Stewart Rhoades is funding his “lifestyle” with their dues, others are more concerned with staying out of jail. And if that means providing investigators with information about their compatriots for a lighter sentence or charges being dropped — they don’t have a problem with that.
“In recent weeks, a steady drumbeat of Oath Keepers and their associates have pleaded guilty to crimes related to the Jan. 6 break-in at the U.S. Capitol, and agreed to cooperate with further investigations into the deadly riot. For the Oath Keepers, more so than almost any other group that participated in the break-in, those cooperation agreements could prove troubling to members anxious about catching charges,” Weill wrote. “Of the more than 500 people charged in the riot, members of the Oath Keepers are among the only defendants accused of conspiracy for allegedly plotting the assault on the building, in an attempt to block the certification of President Joe Biden’s election victory.”
According to Sam Jackson, author of a recent book on the Oath Keepers, the wheels appear to be falling off the group due to the riot prosecutions and the disenchantment with founder Stewart Rhodes.
‘Pathetic loser’ Trump mocked for boast he will make a ‘significant announcement’ this week at his golf course
According to a press release tweeted out by his new spokesperson, former president Donald Trump claims he will be making a “significant announcement” about his “efforts to protect Americans’ First Amendment rights” during a press conference at his Bedminster golf course.
Trump, who is banned from Twitter as well as every other social media platform, has taken to issuing statements through spokesperson Liz Harrington who has assumed a more active role in promoting the former president after the departure of Jason Miller.
Trump’s latest missive was immediately ridiculed with many expressing skepticism that much of anything "pathetic loser Trump has to say will rise to the level of “significant.”
Oath Keeper Guilty Plea Chips Away at Tucker Carlson’s Theory That FBI Organized Jan. 6
Tucker Carlson claimed on his show last month that the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was organized by the FBI.
Mark Grods, a 54-year-old from Alabama and member of the Oath Keepers, pleaded guilty in federal court on Wednesday to charges related to the Capitol attack.
The far-right militia member accepted guilt on one charge of criminal conspiracy and on another for obstruction of an official proceeding. He agreed to cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
