Trump wants 1/6 Committee members jailed

[Politruk]

Not making this up.

Donald Trump told NBC in a wide-ranging interview that he believes all members of the January 6 committee should be thrown in jail – though he stopped short of outright threatening to use the Justice Department to do so.

“Honestly, they should go to jail,” he told Meet the Press moderator Kristen Welker in an interview about his “day one” plans, airing Sunday.


When asked about Liz Cheney – who was a GOP lawmaker, served as vice chair of the committee and who campaigned with Kamala Harris in the 2024 race – Trump said “everybody” on the panel should be jailed “for what they did.”

Are we a banana republic yet?

Adam Kinzinger says, "Bring it on!"

Getting there. Amusing how trump is all of a sudden hands off and says he has no agenda and will simply let his appointees just do what’s right because it’s up to them after all

Not yet, BUT, look at the Manhatten DA, the Atlanta DA, the New York A G, ALL going after Trump, and everything they've charged him with have been proved politically motivated. The progressives not only took it on the shorts on election day, they are now sucking bilge water in all the court rooms.

The New York Stormy sleight of hand payment normally was no biggie since NY is NY and they usually slap a wrist and say knock it off. But it did kind of leak into campaign shit so who knows. trump does shit that brings thunderstorms on himself then cries not fair, political lawfare!

I laughed when he claimed to Kristen Welker that OMG the FBI invaded his home, can you believe that! He forgot to mention he refused to give back confidential documents he shouldn’t have had in the first place so he left them no choice.

The FBI sent him a detailed list of the documents that they wanted back. The list was delivered through regular legal channels and processes. The list was received about two weeks ahead of the demand date. On that date the FBI didn’t swat team the doors down.

Come to think of it, why did Trump take that stuff with him when he left the WH?

That’s not hard to figure outy

From the date that the FBI knocked on the door of mar alago rump et al have lied…no surprise…and made it sound like the place got trashed. The FBI had legal right to find what was on the list. There was no smash n trash going on. In Bidens vaguely similar request from the FBI his staff immediately went to work gathering the requested docs…and a few that weren’t on the FBI list. Bidens staff had all the documents boxed and ready fir the FBI.

 

[Rebel5soul]

All that bullshit about Trump and the documents isn't going to save the J6 members asses. Real short attention span you folks have.

 

[Rebel5soul]

They better be getting the best lawyers they can afford, the government won't be picking up the tab for them.

 

[Politruk]

It is hard to think of any crime of which they might conceivably be guilty -- that is, any in connection with the 1/6 investigation; can't rule out the possibility that any member might be corrupt in some unrelated way.

 

[Escierto]

Jail? Oh come on, any tinhorn dictator would have them all executed. Pansy!

Doesn't have to be a crime, that's the point.

Just make whatever up, throw shit and hope something sticks, just like they enjoy doing. Demonize and lie about them in the media until people buy it.

Start in on Gavin Newsom and Cathy Horkis .... just smear both as rapist and human traffickers. Investigate, smear, investigate, smear....just non stop for 4 years.

If we're really lucky he'll get the FBI director to come out and say "OH YEA, Trump did all these crimes, we totally caught him red handed ...but were not going to recommend any charges." watch the AG say " SOUNDS GOOD BRO!!!!" and then laugh at you guys when you totally melt the fuck down and cry about injustice and political bias in the courts.

[Rebel5soul]

I'm betting their attorneys are smart enough to demand payment up front.

 

[Rebel5soul]

"Legal" those sons a bitches right into the poor house.

 

[Politruk]

What is disturbing is what this implies -- that we're going to have another enemies-list administration, driven by Trump's petty personal vendettas.

Driven by democrats distain for democracy.

We don't want to stop it...we want ruthless lawfare and absolutely over the top smear campaigns running 24/7.

We want to see someone give back to the Democrats what they love dishing out.

Can they take what they've spent 16 years dishing out?

It hasn't even started and they are imploding.......

I just hope Trump doesn't cuck out and gives the Democrats a lesson in REAL victimhood.

They believe that everything they did, and are still trying to do to an extent, was perfectly justified. Now they calling it "revenge." OK, let's run with that. I don't think that they've quite grasped the notion that revenge is the payback for a real and discernible wrong, without an original insult there would be no need for revenge.

The 1/6 Committee never did anything that wasn't. Everyone seems to be skating around that undeniable fact.

Accountability looks like revenge to the privileged.

Of course they did, the whole thing was a fucking sham.
