Umm he isn’t going to see consequences (without a revolution) because Trump can pardon him for federal crimes.

This is what I love about the fediverse. It is the closest to actual anarchist communities I’ve seen and it works great.
The good news is that if this shit gets appealed to the fascists on the Supreme Court we know there is non a small chance that they will rule in favor of making Trump king.
Charging someone with an obvious crime is not illegal. Waiting two years in normal for feds, but there is nothing in the law saying they have to do it that way.
Did your strategy work? They tried it and it failed. I posit it failed because they treated normally. Meaning, our leaders didn’t treat it like the existential threat it was.
Do you remember the uproar after 1/6. Companies pulling funding, social networks banning him, etc etc?
2 years later everyone was integrating him back into normal business. Half the population bought the Fox News line. We could have avoided that if some politicians had a spine. But we have the democrats.
It is truly mystifying to me why anyone would defend them after they lost the most winnable election ever. Did they have to do a genocide? Did they have to trot out a fucking Cheney as their main character?
Again you are acting like this was a normal case. It wasn’t normal. Charge him with his obvious crimes and get him before he has a chance to change the narrative.
After two fucking years they charged him. They should have done it day one.
Biden and company had the chance to put Trump in jail immediately after Jan 6. Trump did some blatantly illegal shit and most of the country was aghast. He prioritized other shit and appointed Merrick Does Nothing Garland because of vibes or something. So Trump and the media was able to rehabilitate his image and memory hole the attack on our constitution.
Biden could have worked on court reform since this fascism is coming from the fed soc six. Nothing he did would stand up to them, but he made a blue ribbon panel that said it was all good. The justices then gave Trump immunity to do whatever the fuck he wants. Meaning he can pardon people for criminal acts. There is no check anymore.
The Dems should have seen what is coming from the fascists. They even called Trump a fascist, half heartedly given that they also wished him well after he got shot (or maybe they are just cool with fascists?). They knew about project 2025. But are we seeing any resistance to the destruction of our government from them? No. But I am getting plenty of fundraising texts.
The South Koreans parliamentarians stormed their fucking capital when their president tried to seize complete power. Ours meekly write strongly worded letters about how this is all illegal.
It’s too bad that the republicans didn’t publish their plan well in advance of the election. That might have been very useful for planning a counter strategy.
Are you telling me these tacticool cops aren’t actually operators?
Congress is required for all sorts of shit that Elon is doing but that isn’t stopping Elon.
Laws are not some sort of natural force. They are implemented by people and all of those people are either fascists or cowards.
Trumps immunity plus his pardon power make him king. All of his minions can do all the illegal things they want. Trump can then pardon them and he isn’t liable for their crimes if he is doing something roughly in line with his duties are President. John Roberts fucked us all.
The only way this is going to be solved is by people power. Organize. Fight these fascists.
