Trump’s Latest Scheme to Beat Harris May Have Crossed Legal Lines

Everyone who says "They're both equally bad. I refuse to vote for either candidate because they both support genocide" can shut the fuck up now.

I'm really tired of Trump not being in prison.

I think the last Republican presidential candidate to sabotage peace talks to help his own campaign was Richard Nixon in the Vietnam War, so Trump is just continuing their tradition of killing innocents for personal gain.

Throwback to Reagan’s team intentionally sabotaging negotiations for the Iran hostage crisis, so it would make Jimmy Carter look bad right before the election.

They didn't jail Nixon or that shitbag kissenger for the same shit, doubt anything will be done about this. Hell, both of those asshats got to live out their years rubbing elbows and "advising" the political elite of both parties.

The "genocide Joe" crowd is deafeningly silent on this development, i see. How surprising.

Didn't Nixon do the same thing with the Vietnam war?

Woohoo maybe this time there will be consequences since he is not president and it can't be an official act ...

Wow, if only there was something we could do about people crossing legal lines. Alas, we have tried nothing and are out of ideas.

The Logan Act was passed in 1799. A grand total of two people were charged with violating it, and none were convicted.

Those fun facts are never going to change. Prosecutors should find something else to charge Trump with, it won't be hard.

How about the media stop using caveats like "may have" when shit is entirely 100% clear.

There are laws on the books regarding things like this. There is no may have. It's cut and fucking dried.

There has been no consequences to his actions so of course he is going to do whatever he wants.

Wouldn't be the first time he has 'crossed legal lines'.

However, wouldn't it be great if it was the last time?

Netanyahu revealing which part of the US he's really an "ally" of. Maybe stop giving blank checks to a foreign power destabilizing your country while you only hand out loans and debt to Ukraine?

nail him for treason

and nothing will happen, like every other time he "crossed legal lines"

I'll believe it when he's in jail. This orange turd is practically made of as slipperonium.

Trump could punt a baby across a field and nothing would happen.

“I did encourage him to get this over with. You want to get it over with fast. Have victory, get your victory, and get it over with. It has to stop, the killing has to stop,” Trump said at a New Jersey press conference on Thursday, referring to their meeting at Mar-a-Lago last month. But he also criticized cease-fire demands.

In other words Trump wants to have a quick genocide. That is the only way to stop the killing, without having a ceasefire. Even Biden was a hell of a lot better then this.

Alternate title: “Donald Trump DEFINITELY broke the law. You won’t BELIEVE what happened next!”

oh the old reagan october surprise countermeasure.

that photo says:"handjob is done"

You don’t say.

Can y'all merkins just throw that conman in to the clink? The rest of the world is tired of his bullshit.

I've had this crazy theory that ever since Clinton's second term, the presidents have been playing out in reverse order and politics:

-Bush was the anti George H Bush

-Obama was the anti-Reagan

-Trump was the anti-Carter

-Biden was the anti-Ford

This feels like the anti-Iran contra play, anti-Carter working with Israelis to prevent hostages from being released until after the election.

If anybody deserves to be locked up for being a clear and present danger to society, it's this guy. At the very least, he should be forbidden from using a phone, then locked up when he eventually breaks that rule because he thinks that none of the rules apply to him. The way he's treated, the government is basically encouraging that.

Pretty sure i just heard the ghost of Henry Kissinger slaping himself in a hurried facepalm.

As Israel is in conflict with Palestine, not the United States; would that even be covered by the logan act?

The Logan Act (1 Stat. 613, 18 U.S.C. § 953, enacted January 30, 1799) is a United States federal law that criminalizes the negotiation of a dispute between the United States and a foreign government by an unauthorized American citizen.

Then there's actually proving this negotiation took place and isn't hearsay; from a legal perspective...

Somehow, I don't forsee this being acted on.

Whenever he does (the tiniest of) fists, I instantly realize there’s nothing to gain from reading/watching further. That accounts for 99.9% of times and why I set a high standard on fist measurements, although I live in EU and US politics only concern as far as influence goes, which reaches way deep here

Media Bias Fact Check | bot support

Palestinian poet Mosab Abu Toha, who escaped the besieged country in December, reported on Monday that the humanitarian area in south Gaza is little more than 14 square miles.

“Crammed in it are more than 1.8 million people, with no water, no electricity, no food, no clinics or pharmacies, and no shelters,”

How's that work? Oh right is an obvious false statement.

Edit: Well it has been 3 days since this post. Rest in peace to all 1.8 million people at the humanitarian zone who having no water died of thirst after 3 days in the desert.

It's ridiculous to blame Trump for the lack of a ceasefire between Palestine and Israel. Why not just blame Trump for the war in Ukraine as well or the stolen election in Venezuela.
