th3t00t posted:"Levying war isn't limited to formally declaring war. It includes any forcible opposition to the execution of a public law. Such "forcible opposition" ordinarily requires actual use of force by multiple people with the common purpose of preventing some law from being enforced. Weapons aren't always required; sheer numbers can be enough. Calling on Russia to interfere with the US elections on national television was also treason. Iirc that didn't go anywhere either.

Judge Schnoopy posted:Any charge of treason would shatter the government entirely. It doesn't matter if he's guilty, Trump has set up his followers to believe any action against him is vindictive, petty, and false, brought only by people who are guilty of worse crimes and are afraid of what he stands for. I strongly disagree with this post. There will be no civil war. And if there is, Trump's side would lose badly. People really don't understand that the republican party is a minority party of America that only survives because of voter suppression and gerrymandering. The republican party literally won't allow another state in because they would become unelectable. A single state. Even just DC becoming a state. The alternative of letting him walk away unpunished is 1/6 just becomes practice. I should remind you that I've toxxed myself with the idea Trump goes unpunished by the DOJ/Georgia and then runs successfully in the next election. (Although I don't think he'll win the presidential election barring some catastrophe). Nelson Mandingo fucked around with this message at 20:35 on Jun 23, 2022 |

So can Rosen and Donaghue not fire Jeff Clark on the spot? I cannot loving imagine pulling an end run around my boss and his boss in this manner without getting some sort of consequences. Is Clark's position an appointed one?

Jaxyon posted:It's extremely unlikely to happen. The US doesn't charge former presidents with crimes, rich people, or white men, and Trump is all 3. I'm well aware of the extreme difficulty, which is why I'm equally serious about this being an existential threat. Whatever has stopped these groups from seeing real consequences must be overcome or the US will cease to be a democracy. There's a good chance that will require a protest movement larger than any seen in the last 20 years, on top of politicians taking unprecedented action to stop this ball from rolling into fascism. I understand why that might seem far-fetched or impossible, but I'd like to remind anyone thinking this, no movement has ever succeeded by telling people it can't be done. It doesn't matter how unlikely it is, a way needs to be found, and saying it can't be found will only hurt the chances of success.

Next set of hearings appears to be about the coup attempt itself and how Trump organized it. They also said they are getting a "deluge of new evidence" about the organization of it. Lmao if the Documentary has Trump on tape talking to or referencing Proud Boys directly with regards to a planned attack.
