Well that happened. For what its worth this was the result I expected but did have some hope wouldn't occur. As I said rather explicitly, I was theory crafting what the route to mistrial would look like. Its clear that both lawyers, though not necessarily TDS sufferers, decided to bounce off of that train hard. Though as I said before, I am -really- looking forward to seeing what the leaks reveal. It will be fascinating..
 
A&N is pretty comfy except whenever a major story breaks and tourists from the "mature" boards come in to rant about how bad it is.

It would be much appreciated if you kids could stay in your containment boards so that the adults can have civilized discussions.

God this, half the shit they say about A&N are just lies that's been repeated like "good people on both sides" level type shit.
 
The real issue is that what you see as nothing is actually instability entering the system. Once a crack is formed its hard to remove and those cracks overtime can easily lead to the whole thing collapsing. The final crack can be today or decades from now, but know that when that moment does happen, it starts just like this.
As people have pointed out, these cracks have been forming for 160 years. So once again, what makes this event in particular any different? I’m not saying what happened today is insignificant, I’m saying people are going to shit themselves and do nothing. Basically I’m calling out the people who think a civil war or something equivalently dramatic is going to happen. It’s not.

A&N users are extremely mellow considering the fact that the two competing ideologies in this country are on the verge of killing each other. Team red has learned to deal with HHH and team blue has learned to deal with SSj_Ness.

If you make the mistake of going against the grain in a lolcow hugbox and they’ll immediately report you to the jannies. A&N is the heart of the site. Everything else is little better than Reddit.

Have you ever heard of "calm before the storm?" This verdict is just adding resentment against an unpopular administration. The mask is off that the establishment is against Donald Trump, and by extension, any populist movement that dares to undermine centuries worth of power. They'll do whatever it takes to sabotage Trump from winning 2024, even if it means destroying half the country. The November elections could be the straw that breaks the camel's back. Everybody will feel the wrath of each political faction imploding upon itself through external factors adding fuel to that fire.

Everything would've been fine if Trump had just won 2020. He would get his eight years, his work would be the deciding judge of his presidency, the Democrats could've regrouped and find a better candidate for the moderate. Instead, they decided to play the short term (trends, voting blocs, pandemic, fear mongering) without considering the long term consequences of their actions.

It always goes back to niggers doesn't it smdh
 
If the Supreme Court ever actually touches this case, it will be because of the political interference angle or procedure fuckery, not because of anything to do with if a POTUS can stand trial or not for a crime like this (which is as you said a already addressed point).
The legal reason would be a state court prosecuting federal violations, and the convoluted legal reasoning that turned several misdemeanors into felony crimes.

New York laws and courts have been due for legal back hand slaps for decades; they're still refusing to implement the SCOTUS Bruen ruling.
 
Then literally what is everyone scared about? They can't let him get Epsteined or there will be Hell to pay.
O rly?

That's some serious mis and disinformation. It has been conclusively proven that the deranged inmate who shanked Blumpf in the shower was a crazed MAGA white supremacist. Saying otherwise is a dangerous conspiracy theory that is a threat to Are Democracy and hate speech such as that or J6 support or holocaust denial is prosecutable under the law!
