Rich white men have been getting away with breaking the law for so long that to them accountability feels like oppression.
Rep. Adam Schiff to CBS: "The idea that, 18 months after the fact, Donald Trump could simply announce, 'well, I'm retroactively declassifying' — or 'whatever I took home had the effect of declassifying them' — is absurd."
If Trump gets convicted of the Espionage Act, he faces a 10-year prison sentence, according to 18 U.S.C. §§ 793.

NEVER FORGET: Senators Lindsey Graham, Rick Scott, Ron Johnson, Mitt Romney & OTHERS have all gone on record saying they want to cut YOUR Social Security.
I am getting reports from different people that voter registration data bases in Texas, Florida, Arizona, and Ohio are being messed with. They will do anything to keep us from voting. Please check your voter registration status TODAY AND EVERY WEEK.

Serious question: What steps are being taken by federal authorities to make sure Trump doesn’t flee the country?

Dash Dobrofsky
Jordan said he has ‘14 FBI whistleblowers’ who have “come forward” about DOJ “misconduct.” This is another MAGA falsehood. Jim Jordan did, however, allow 43 students to get molested at Ohio State University. He also silenced and defamed a 10 year old rape victim in his own state.

At this point, you can either support Trump, or you can support America. You can’t have it both ways.
If your school has a banned book list, read those ones first.
In June 2016 before he was President, USA Today published an analysis of litigation involving Donald Trump. Over previous 30 years, Trump & his businesses were involved in 3,500 legal cases in U.S. federal & state courts. He is not being picked on for politics. He's a criminal.
Remember Mueller was barred from examining Trump’s finances? We need to know who paid Trump, and what for.

Longtime GOP insider Cheri Jacobus: America is "not going to recover from Donald Trump". Former Republican strategist says her party can't be salvaged — and if Trump isn't punished, America is "done for"

Amy Siskind 🏳️‍🌈
Trump’s latest iteration is he wants the documents back 🤣😅🤣😅. Trump is finally about to find out what law and order actually means!
The longer Trump gets to radicalize his rabid cult on Truth Social, the more FBI death threats will be made by MAGAs. The longer Trump remains out of prison, the more Right-wing terrorism will ensue. The longer Trump remains a free man, the more likely it is that people will die.


Russian TV is taunting us, bragging that they’ve already seen the nuclear secrets Trump stole They are praising Tucker Carlson & Tulsi Gabbard and trashing Biden If you wanna know who is an enemy of America, just watch whom Russia praises They only praise the enemies among us
Do you know who else wants to defund the FBI? Vladimir Putin.




Andrew McCabe: Trump is inflaming violent followers 'because he knows the effects it will have'

NBC News: The FBI and DHS have issued a joint intelligence bulletin warning of a spike in threats to federal law enforcement officials since the Mar-a-Lago search. The bulletin calls on authorities to be vigilant and aware of issues surrounding domestic violent extremists.
Fun fact: When you start arguing that a law ought to be repealed because someone is accused of breaking it, you are admitting that they did break it. And even maybe admitting that you broke it yourself. Right Rand?

We know trump isn’t a big reader of documents so why did trump take the specific documents he did.

Republicans being furious about gas prices continuing to fall says everything. They traffick in grievance and feigned persecution. And they have no platform, ideas, or solutions of their own. So they need things to be bad so they can whine about them and blame them on Democrats.

Trump getting raided was a good thing

Hear me out....can already hear the fury building up

America has gotten so partisan that everyone is fighting for "their side". Have people forgotten how corrupt politicians have always been? Is that not what drew people to this sub? Distrust in narratives and the power structure

I don't know if people actually believe Trump to be a squeaky clean saviour. It's fairly likely he did some corrupt dealings and if he took classified information then, like a normal member of society, he should be investigated.

Now you have the Republicans saying what about Clinton's emails, Hunters laptop bla bla bla, threatening the same when they win the midterms.....good! Investigate all the corrupt Democrats too. Go after Clinton for her emails, go after Hunter, Pelosi and whoever else has committed crimes against the people. Politicians are not above the law, we've just given them that pedestal. Investigate them all if they've committed crimes. It may be unprecedented that former presidents get investigated but why not set a new precedent and clear out some of the rot? People sticking to their side and readying themselves to take aim at the other is what perpetuates this situation where corrupt politicians clean house while using the justice system against opponents.

Time to remove the politics from it and have pressure from the people to investigate ALL corrupt politicians like a justice system should

TL;DR Stop being so partisan, if Trump is corrupt investigate, if all the Democrats are corrupt investigate too. The only chance of actually getting rid of corrupt politicians. Partisanship perpetuates corruption and facilitates the weaponization of the justice system

Socialism is a scare word they've hurled at every advance the people have made. Socialism is what they called public power, social security, deposit insurance, and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for anything that helps all people. --Harry Truman, 1952
BREAKING: Trump’s lawyers copied voting machine data from multiple states after 2020 election in major unauthorized data breach.
When Trump says "the temperature has to be brought down in the country", it's a threat. He's sayin' he can also crank it up if you indict me. This is terrorism, pure and simple.

Some Democratic pundits argue that Dems must move to the “center” in order to win. Where is the center? Halfway between democracy and fascism? Midpoint between social justice and oligarchy? If Dems have to go either of these places in order to win, what’s the point of winning?
BREAKING: Trump warns "terrible things are going to happen" as he is blamed for threats and violence directed at FBI agents. Is that a threat for violence?
We also used to have a 230 year tradition of presidents of the United States not paying hush money to porn actresses.
Trump was compromised by Russia at least two decades before the rest of the Republican Party. He never utters a critical word of Putin because they own him. Who wants to bet that Trump and/or Putin *also* have kompromat on most of the Republicans in Congress?
Republicans didn’t want to establish Social Security when Democrats created it in 1935 and have been undermining it ever since. Now they plan to end it if they win in Nov! America’s seniors and persons with disabilities have a message for Republicans: #HandsOffOurSocialSecurity!

What's buried with Ivana that makes him want to keep her grave so close?

If Donald Trump’s life is indeed a living hell, then it is a hell of his own making. The walls are crumbling down around him, and he only has himself to blame.
BREAKING: Now that the FBI is officially investigating Trump for violating the Espionage Act, Senator Rand Paul is calling to REPEAL the Espionage Act! The strategy is now clear – when Trump does something illegal, change the laws to make it legal.
