Breaking 1-06-21: MAGA terrorist attack on Capitol

This right here is why we can’t take you leftist clown seriously. Your holy grail precious Jan 6th was a set up all the way.

 

If he doesn't know, what more does maga massie want... idle speculation?

OK, to make maga massie happy, it was large marge... the three-toes, shoes, the bleach-blond, bad built butch body all give her away.

 

Seeing a new criminal complaint against a J6 defendant this morning -- could be my 60th J6 client. Multiple felony offenses charged -- but not a Sec. 1512(c)(2) "Obstruction of Congress" charge when there would be been such a charge 6 months ago. Another sign DOJ knows it is losing the Fischer case. Yet DOJ management pushed the 20 year felony charge for over three years and forced defendants to plead guilty and accept 3-4 year sentences on it. Not a single DOJ official whose name appears anywhere backing the application of that statute should keep their job past January 20 if Trump wins. This should be a project for the Transition -- ID everyone involved in the decision-making, no matter how tangentially. Escort them from the building and shut down their access at 12:00 pm. The entire Department should be given notice that deleting files or destroying materials will be deemed "obstruction of justice."​

 

Hold on to that dream.

 

This shows the true "maga"...

 

Sure, I expect plenty of political retribution if Trump wins.

 

trump and his maga enablers have already said he would.

 

Top Democratic congressman proposes way to force Alito, Thomas off January 6 cases

Clarence Thomas’s wife called for the 2020 election to be overturned. Samuel Alito had rightwing flags flying at two of his properties. Yet both conservative justices are set to rule on Donald Trump’s claim of immunity from prosecution for his election meddling, despite calls from Democrats that they step back from that and other cases because they are conflicted.

Congressman Jamie Raskin, proposed a novel way to force the two justices off the case:

The US Department of Justice – including the US attorney for the District of Columbia, an appointed US special counsel and the solicitor general, all of whom were involved in different ways in the criminal prosecutions underlying these cases and are opposing Mr Trump’s constitutional and statutory claims – can petition the other seven justices to require Justices Alito and Thomas to recuse themselves not as a matter of grace but as a matter of law.

The Justice Department and Attorney General Merrick Garland can invoke two powerful textual authorities for this motion: the Constitution of the United States, specifically the due process clause, and the federal statute mandating judicial disqualification for questionable impartiality, 28 USC Section 455. The Constitution has come into play in several recent Supreme Court decisions striking down rulings by stubborn judges in lower courts whose political impartiality has been reasonably questioned but who threw caution to the wind to hear a case anyway. This statute requires potentially biased judges throughout the federal system to recuse themselves at the start of the process to avoid judicial unfairness and embarrassing controversies and reversals.

I really don't agree with this push to get Alito to recuse. He has a personal political opinion and exercised his first amendment right to express it? What's wrong with that? Are we pretending justices aren't supposed to have political opinions?

 

I agree with you about Alito but I still have questions, though because of his lies relating directly to the incident.

 

This is a difficult issue but we do expect judges and others in positions where they are supposed to uphold the law to make decisions on that rather than political opinion.

For example as a local Judo referee I'm frequently in the position of refereeing matches by players I've coached. Because we don't have a lot of Judo Referees I can't just recuse myself from every match where I have a conflict like that. I've often made calls against my players and told them ahead of time don't expect any favors from me when I'm the referee.

 

Is there a reason we think Alito cant do that just because he said his opinion out loud? I'm pretty sure all 9 justices have an opinion about Jan 6.
