That doesn't make any sense. Sexual assault is a crime, so Wohl is recruiting people to falsely accuse a public figure of a crime. How could that possibly not be illegal? And if it is, it seems like they got far enough along to prove intent.

Short answer is that there is no Federal criminal defamation, only half of states have criminal defamation, and it's apparently pretty rarely prosecuted. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defamation#Criminal_defamation_3 Defamation is generally a civil matter where the 'victim' sues the defamer. Mueller probably didn't view Wohl as worth his time.

The system works, trust the smug twitter lawyer guy who acts completely detached from everything.

I live in an idiosyncratic small city now. Blue state, democratic governance in the city, big union town, but also a lot of farmers/trades who are more socially conservative/very christian, with a recent influx of Hispanic immigrants. Overall I like it here for the hiking and the reasonable standard of living. I saw scrawled into the dirt of a truck on the road by my house "Subscribe to pewdiepie <3." I know what that little prick who did it is trying to do, and I'm not afraid or triggered. But I am angrier than I've felt in ages.

pseudanonymous posted:But he's not really committing libel, I think is the issue. He's suborning libel (I made that up) conspiring to get someone else to commit libel, aiding and abetting libel, but I don't think any of these things are really against "the law" though I'm only an expert on bird law. Inducing someone to commit a crime is a crime, though. The actual answer is Devor posted:Short answer is that there is no Federal criminal defamation, only half of states have criminal defamation, and it's apparently pretty rarely prosecuted. And also I forgot about defamation vs libel

Anything can happen, of course, but baring a major shift public sentiment I think people will want to memory hole Trump the second he's out of office. poo poo, we couldn't even get Nixon into jail, and they had him on tape saying "I sure did all those awesome crimes!" and that was in the era before Fox News.

Skippy McPants posted:If I were that optimistic, I'd bet on Trump going to prison for life. The biggest difference between Trump post-presidency and Nixon post-presidency might be that there are a hojillion state investigations looming over the orange goblin. The previous NYAG burned his charity-fraud piggybank to the ground, and the current NYAG campaigned explicitly on investigating and prosecuting Donald Trump, son of Fred Christ.

Them buying investment property there is the process of gentrification. There's a big production studio out that way, and the neighborhoods north and east are already pretty well into the process.
