“Nobody is better at getting indicted than me. Many people, big strong men, come up to me, tears streaming down their invisible faces, and say, ‘Sir, nobody ever got indicted in FOUR jurisdictions all at once before! You are amazing, Sir!’"

Just curious, have any of you read the indictment? Particularly those "acts" that are cited in the indictment as "an overt act in furtherance of a conspiracy"?

I did indeed. Contrary to the wingnut opinions casting aspersions against the mention of overt acts in the indictment (that they are not all criminal acts), the law is clear that they need not themselves be criminal acts, but acts taken to further the conspiracy. OTOH, predicate acts (under Georgia (and Fed)) RICO laws must be criminal and those predicate acts charged in the indictment are indeed criminal (while no non-criminal overt acts were charged).

This is yet another non-issue that represents a misunderstanding or deliberate obfuscation of the relevant law to rile the rubes (it seems to again have worked on you).

The cult believes he and fellow conspirators were within their rights to overturn the election. Something like the Constitution and Laws are mere suggestions not needing to be followed when it comes to anything other then the 2nd...

You know the drill by now finn. Whell will say he was simply asking a question and then slam you for implying something he didn't say then blame all us lefties for jumping the gun because his dear leader hasn't been convicted of anything yet and claim the DOJ is corrupt because the aren't indicting Biden despite the mountains of "obvious" proof.
