Justice Dept: Trump can be sued by police for Jan 6 actions

We need to make America Great again.

He’s going to need another batch of poorly photographed, stolen intellectual property NFTs (Not Fat Trumps) to pay for all the lawsuits he is facing.

An email seeking comment was sent to an attorney for Trump on Thursday. Trump’s lawyers have argued he was acting within his official rights and had no intention to spark violence when he called on thousands of supporters to “march to the Capitol” and “fight like hell” before the riot erupted.

If there is anyone for which words should have meaning, it should be the President of the United States of America.

I'm afraid we are moving beyond that.

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/may/23/alt-right-online-humor-as-a-weapon-facism

Like with almost everything in Trump's life, he didn't consider what he could do for the presidency; to the extent he considered it at all, he only ever considered what the presidency could do for him. His lens was always me, me, me. When you see him like this most of what he did makes sense. It's hard to see how his supporters cannot see it. "Ah, but Biden ...."

More time wasted, more attacks, more grasping at straws, Dems just March on, becoming more inventive, good luck.

Without doubt, Trump's words resulted in the violence of that day, and the bloody riot that ensued.

We have to remember that the riot was not just a consequence of over the top rhetoric, but an absolutely intended consequence - the attack on the Capitol was intended, and Trump wanted to be carried with them, to lead the mob in.

It was this intent that makes him culpable. I wish them well in their case, but because justice must prevail, and wannabe tyrants must be brought down. The Republican Party is too cowardly to commit regicide, but he will be brought down.

Life would be a lot easier of Trump and his fans would be honest and admit he lost the election.

But so many people aren't allowed to express their real opinion, and the rest are just really stupid.

As a Trump fan, which side are you on? Lying or stupid?

He’s going to be defending lawsuits from this for the rest of his miserable life.

Good!

Trump?! What can you say? Here's a guy who'd throw his own mother under a bus to save his skin. Thank goodness he's gone and not the one dealing with Putin's barbaric invasion of Ukraine.

Wouldn’t expect any other decision from a corrupt and biased DOJ.

It was this intent that makes him culpable. I wish them well in their case, but because justice must prevail, and wannabe tyrants must be brought down. The Republican Party is too cowardly to commit regicide, but he will be brought down.

Yeah, we keep hearing this day after day, after day….

Wouldn’t expect any other decision from a corrupt and biased DOJ.

Then it’s not a surprise and thus not a big deal for you?

And when that position is upheld by the circuit, appeals and Supreme courts, will they be “corrupt and biased” too?

Like when they tossed all of his fever-dream election denial suits out on their collective ear?

He’s going to be defending lawsuits from this for the rest of his miserable life. 

Good!

This is why money and having a ton of excellent lawyers come in handy. Thank God the guy is not a regular Joe otherwise his goose would have been cooked and juicy by now.

Which will come to nothing. Again. Such a waste of time and effort.

Golly,

Its almost like one can’t encourage one’s rubes to try to overthrow the government, because one lost a free and fair election…

Whats the world coming to when an old white man can’t spout lies resulting in mayhem and death and the hide behind “free speech”????

Then it’s not a surprise and thus not a big deal for you? 

Not really, I’m just surprised how these people could care less about the real problems that affect millions of Americans: the open border Fentanyl, inflation, deteriorating race relations, China, but yeah, even China is laughing at us where we out our priorities and could blame them? I wouldn’t either.

And when that position is upheld by the circuit, appeals and Supreme courts, will they be “corrupt and biased” too?

Wouldn’t be the first time.

Like when they tossed all of his fever-dream election denial suits out on their collective ear?

Yaaawwwnn.

Thank God the guy is not a regular Joe otherwise his goose would have been cooked and juicy by now.

Thank the capitalist prosperity Jesus that a multiple bankrupt business man has the economic means to fight against 'unjust' legal prosecution and not those shiftless poors!

Hallelujah!

MAGA!

This is why money and having a ton of excellent lawyers come in handy. Thank God the guy is not a regular Joe otherwise

That would help.

Too bad he doesn’t have either of those….

All he has are cash-sucking depreciating fixed assets and Z-list goobers.

And when that position is upheld by the circuit, appeals and Supreme courts, will they be “corrupt and biased” too?

It wont be.

Like when they tossed all of his fever-dream election denial suits out on their collective ear?

”lack of standing” for everyone who filed. Or “too early” one day followed by “too late” the next day.

This must be the JOKE of the century, Trump should have been Sued, long ago by these people and should have never been allowed to run for office again.

The lawsuits, filed by Rep Eric Swalwell, D-Calif…and later joined by other House Democrats

All you really need to know

Yes that’s what he says because that is what happened.

And when that position is upheld by the circuit, appeals and Supreme courts, will they be “corrupt and biased” too?

It wont be.

Advanced legal analysis from the guy who didn’t realize the difference between being liable in a civil suit and being guilty in a criminal case!

Like when they tossed all of his fever-dream election denial suits out on their collective ear?

”lack of standing” for everyone who filed. Or “too early” one day followed by “too late” the next day.

And yet nothing ever came of those.

Strange, that.

The suits filed too early must have been refilled, right? Surely then a matter this momentous got its day in court!

No?

Thats because “Lack of standing” means “You have no beef/you are not a party/this is a waste of time/go away”

Thats what that means.

The term “frivolous” comes to mind and several of Trump’s former flunky lawyers can’t practice law anymore because of it. (They will probably get some company soon…)

So now Swalwell gonna waste all our time and sue Trump for a gazillion dollars for “emotional distress”.

while spending the next year on CNN and MSNBC whining about he didn’t do any Fang Fang to get removed from his committee.

Thank the capitalist prosperity Jesus that a multiple bankrupt business man has the economic means to fight against 'unjust' legal prosecution and not those shiftless poors!

Hallelujah!

MAGA!

More taxpayer money wasted

Translation: “I’m going to pretend being proven wrong with facts doesn’t bother me.”

Translation: since 2015 and with mounting failure after failure you would think these people would learn, but no….

But it’s not your money.

But it’s the taxpayers money in that state

I mean, you weren’t actually dumb enough to buy his ponzi-scheme scams, we’re you?

Were you????

scheme?

Yes that’s what he says because that is what happened.

And yet he’s not, in fact, President.

No court in any jurisdiction at any level has seen an iota of proof.

Because Trump lost and Joe Biden won, bigly.

As Fox was busted for scamming the stupid and the unbalanced over the election being stolen, which con artists are feeding them now?

This is why money and having a ton of excellent lawyers come in handy. Thank God the guy is not a regular Joe otherwise his goose would have been cooked and juicy by now.

I’ve not seen it said so blatantly before that you support rich elites being able to buy their way out of legal issues that regular people are jailed for.

No court in any jurisdiction at any level has seen an iota of proof.

Because no standing, wrong Court, too early, too late.

not because there isn’t any proof to be seen.

The suits filed too early must have been refilled, right?

no because Monday’s “you have no damages the results are not announced yet and election isn’t over” because Tuesday’s “it’s moot because the results are announced and the election is over”

Well thank god he’s not a regular joe and has money and excellent lawyers. His goose will never be cooked. Thank god right?

So both men are safe.

not because there isn’t any proof to be seen.

It must be well hidden. Not even mike lindell can find it. Where is it? Keep digging and sending donations.

Because no standing, wrong Court, too early, too late. 

not because there isn’t any proof to be seen.

And they never fixed it? Never found parties that DID have standing? Never filed in the proper venue?

Gosh, that doesn’t sound very “Elite legal strike force” to me….

or perhaps,

They had no case and as Faux “news” admitted in their depositions it was all a lie.

Because there is no evidence and it’s all a Big Lie.

while spending the next year on CNN and MSNBC

After what Fox did to the vulnerable, most networks look better.

Imagine scamming the vulnerable for a living. It’s so low.

Because Trump lost and Joe Biden won, bigly.

Lol

LOL all you want. Biden is in the White House because he won, and “Less intelligent Voldemort” is about to have his adult diaper sued off.

Now THATS LOL!.

After what Fox did to the vulnerable, most networks look better. 

Not really, ratings and credibility don’t lie.

Imagine scamming the vulnerable for a living. It’s so low.

Now I know you didn’t just say that!!!!

Are there really people out there who think they can overturn the 2020 election?

Sad.

Are there really people out there who think they can overturn the 2020 election?

No, now now and that’s really not the issue especially from what we know from the recently released Twitter files.

Former President Donald Trump can be sued by injured Capitol Police officers and Democratic lawmakers over the Jan 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, the Justice Department said Thursday in a federal court case testing Trump's legal vulnerability and the limits of executive power.

OK, time to take off the gloves...get "Rudy the Red-Nosed Ambulance Chaser" on the job...he'll ensure Trump is well-defended - by admitting he's guilty...

Or maybe that brilliant legal mind Sidney Powell - whose favorite legal strategy to defend her clients is by admitting under oath that "no reasonable person should believe anything I say"....

Or maybe that Trump lawyer that signed the legal affidavit to the DOJ in June that "there is no longer any classified at Mar-A-Lago"_then they FBI finds 84 more documents in September...

One thing is for sure, if they want to get paid, they better get the money upfront...

After what Fox did to the vulnerable, most networks look better. 

Not really, ratings and credibility don’t lie

Fox News hosts shoveled crap they didn’t believe themselves to vulnerable people.

Credibility?

This was a clear example of preying on the weak. Deplorable.

More time wasted, more attacks, more grasping at straws,

I think Bass has nailed Trump's approach since November 2020.

But as we watch Trump being swallowed in the mound of filth that he created, I wonder how many of his loyalists will defend him to the end.

No, now now and that’s really not the issue especially from what we know from the recently released Twitter files.

You mean the ones where Trump, the chief of the executive branch of the Federal government, had his staff try to get the model’s tweets suppressed because he didn’t like being called a P.A.B.?

Those files?

Because that is actually evidence of government interference in speech and business.

Blacklabel: Because no standing, wrong Court, too early, too late.

"We would have won the lawsuit, but the law got in the way."

Fox News hosts shoveled crap they didn’t believe themselves to vulnerable people. 

All? You speak for all the pundits, you need to rethink that one

Credibility? 

Overall

This was a clear example of preying on the weak. Deplorable.

Again??? No, you didn’t just say that!!

Bass: No, now now and that’s really not the issue especially from what we know from the recently released Twitter files.

So file a lawsuit referencing the Twitter files.

Or don't if you think you'd lose.

Blacklabel: Because no standing, wrong Court, too early, too late.

"We would have won the lawsuit, but the law got in the way."

Oh that pesky law and judges and their reliance on statutes, evidence and standing….

I mean, don’t these people know who Donald Trump is????

It’s almost like they don’t care…..

*You mean the ones where Trump, the chief of the executive branch of the Federal government, had his staff try to get the model’s tweets suppressed because he didn’t like being called a P.A.B.?*

Those files? 

Yes, and your point?

Because that is actually evidence of government interference in speech and business.

“Evidene” If you go by that then Biden in serious trouble.

So file a lawsuit referencing the Twitter files. 

No need, we just know how to vote in 2024

Or don't if you think you'd lose

Going forward, doubt it.

Bass: No need, we just know how to vote in 2024

Then why the need to constantly reference Twitter like that helps you or something?

Just files a lawsuit. Or, like I said, don't if you think you'll lose.

You mean the ones where Trump, the chief of the executive branch of the Federal government, had his staff try to get the model’s tweets suppressed because he didn’t like being called a **P.A.B.**?

Those files? 

Yes, and your point?

Everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE but you gets my point.

Trump was doing exactly what he was accusing others of: suppressing speech. BECAUSE he’s a thin-skinned P.A.B.

It’s called projection.

It’s his thing.

Even you are not this thick. You are being intentionally disingenuous.

I can't think of a better guy for it to happen to. The flood of court cases.

Trump has run out of lawyers who will work for him when he does not pay their bills.

I was shocked reading this week that Murdoch admitted Fox News and its presenters were lying over the 2020 elections claiming fraud.

They should also be sued.

Then why the need to constantly reference Twitter like that helps you or something?

In the same way the left trying to imprison Trump is the ultimate failure for them.

Just files a lawsuit. Or, like I said, don't if you think you'll lose.

True

Trump filed more than 200 court cases claiming election fraud but without a single piece of evidence and he lost every single case by having them thrown out.

Trump holds full responsibility for Jan 6 and all of what happened with the rioting and looting of the Capitol Building trying to overthrow the legal handover of power.

He holds responsibility for the attacks against police officers.

The leader of the Proud Boys and many others were already imprisoned. More to come.

More than 950 people are charged with federal crimes, some already convicted of the serious charges of sedition for trying to overthrow the government.

192 of those defendants have been sentenced to time behind bars and 484 have pleaded guilty to various crimes.

I can't think of a better guy for it to happen to. The flood of court cases.

Gleeful, interesting….

Trump has run out of lawyers who will work for him when he does not pay their bills.

Yeah, the left media keeps peddling that myth.

I was shocked reading this week that Murdoch admitted Fox News and its presenters were lying over the 2020 elections claiming fraud.

In that case all the liberal networks that made allegations about Trump rape allegations should be sued as well.

A supporter of law and order, and who said he wanted to be a police officer not supporting those Capitol police officers who were attacked by the Trump thugs.

Just goes to show to what degree the current regime has politicized the justice system. The politics of a banana republic.

The lack of lawyers willing to work for Trump is not a myth. When you don't pay your bills people do not want to work for you. Simple really.

You just know this "loss" will incite another crazed outburst and tantrum from the two-year old at Mar-A-Lago...

He'll probably slander all these Capitol Police law enforcement heroes by calling them "whiny and phony", that they are all "RINO Globalists", maybe even that they are "Groomers of underage HS girls"....

Wait, that's right, he already used those slurs against someone else...

The lack of lawyers willing to work for Trump is not a myth.

In the words of a partner at a white shoe law firm that turned down the opportunity to rep Trump in the Muller investigation, “Dude doesn’t listen and doesn’t pay.”

You'd think he’d learn to equate his lawyers with his stripper mistresses and recognize the value of paying promptly…..

He doesn’t seem capable of learning and growth, does he?

Trump holds full responsibility for Jan 6 and all of what happened with the rioting and looting of the Capitol Building trying to overthrow the legal handover of power.

Uh-huh…lol

He holds responsibility for the attacks against police officers.

And yet, when asked and pushed Garland can’t unequivocally answer that statement with a straight face.

The leader of the Proud Boys and many others were already imprisoned. More to come.

2 more years and then watch the country lawsuits fly, they’re going to get paid.

More than 950 people are charged with federal crimes, some already convicted of the serious charges of sedition for trying to overthrow the government.

And yet a bunch of thug Antifa rioters that torched a Oregon police station get community service as well as Kenosha

192 of those defendants have been sentenced to time behind bars and 484 have pleaded guilty to various crimes.

They’ll be out soon enough.

A supporter of law and order, and who said he wanted to be a police officer not supporting those Capitol police officers who were attacked by the Trump thugs.

Again, from now what we know with the release of the Twitter files it’s becoming more and more clear and things weren’t at all what the left tried to portray it to be.

This still going on?

the next election is closer than the previous one.

Trump leading on Repub side and only one of them beating Biden head to head.

Where are those Twitter files?

Does not change anything done by Trump and his gang of thugs, hundreds he threw under the bus trying to overthrow the legal handover of power.

A GOP supporter who does not support law and order and the protection of police officers speaks volumes.

And yet a bunch of thug Antifa rioters that torched a Oregon police station get community service as well as Kenosha

The corrupt and biased DOJ doesn’t prosecute Antifa attacks because they are mostly at night, said head of DOJ to Congress.

ummm it matters now what time of day a crime happens?

"Two days after January 6, 2021, United States Capitol attack, Trump made two tweets: one praised his voters, calling them "American Patriots" who will "not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!" and the other stated that he would not be attending Joe Biden's inauguration. Twitter permanently suspended Trump's account on the same day, citing the two tweets as a violation of the "glorification of violence" policy."

It was that.

This still going on?

the next election is closer than the previous one.

And yet your lord still continues to bring it up as do you.

You seem to be under the mistaken impression that having incited an insurrection resulting in damages into the millions, multiple injuries and deaths and the future of Democracy, that "Cognitively Challenged Voldemort!" is just going to waltz away like nothing happened just because his plans failed as miserably as they invariably do.

That is not going to happen.

In the criminal and civil courts, there will be a reckoning for trying to overthrow American Democracy in a violent but failed coup.

Oh yes, there WILL be a reckoning.

Did people not hear the “peaceful and patriotic” part of his speech.?

he is not responsible for citizens who are angry about a warmongering allegedly senile new president. Individuals act individually.

I was shocked reading this week that Murdoch admitted Fox News and its presenters were lying over the 2020 elections claiming fraud.

In that case all the liberal networks that made allegations about Trump rape allegations should be sued as well.

Yea, but those are not your networks - Fox is - it has all your heroes like Carlson, Hannity, Ingraham, Pirro....

Who all supported the fake claims of election fraud on air but in private were saying Trump's claims were "mind-blowingly nuts," "totally off the rails" and "completely BS" 

https://www.npr.org/2023/02/16/1157558299/fox-news-stars-false-claims-trump-election-2020

So a quick question for our far-right friends here....

Which would you prefer - that Fox function as a "fair and balanced" news network and tells the truth about what it believes about Trump's claims or that they act like an entertainment network and lie to you with fictional news saying they support Trump's claims even though in reality they've determined it's all "BS"...

Which do you want - reality or fictional far-right bubble-sphere alt-reality?

Trump will not be the next president in 2024.Too much baggage.

Trump's attack was an attack against American democracy.

Trump will not be the next president in 2024.Too much baggage.

Agreed.

He is also going to be staring down or serving a multi-year prison sentence too.

So there is that as well.

But I would put the floor for his loss at 7 million assuming he gets the nomination as he might.

There are a whole host of voters that looked at that day and said "NOPE. I am done with this guy (they actually used a different term, but you get the idea.)"

Where are those Twitter files?

Watch the hearings and read the file transcripts or follow Matt Taibbi who is a traditional liberal.

Does not change anything done by Trump and his gang of thugs, hundreds he threw under the bus trying to overthrow the legal handover of power.

Also doesn’t change what we now know things aren’t what the left originally told us

A GOP supporter who does not support law and order and the protection of police officers speaks volumes.

Dems can’t talk, the people that don’t even believe in US sovereignty and want to protect our borders.

Trump's attack was an attack against American democracy

As was the FBI, DOJ and social media outlets

Bass: Again, from now what we know with the release of the Twitter files 

Why aren't you suing? Is it because you have no case and you seek a "win" on internet message boards?

Yep!

And no. Nobody is coming to pardon them.

Yeah, the left said that about Stone, Flynn, Manafort and so on and so on…

Trump will not be the next president in 2024.Too much baggage.

They said that in 2016 and even if it doesn’t happen DeSantis would be a good and an even more formidable opponent, not good for the Dems either way.

As was the FBI, DOJ and social media outlets

Not one of those tried to stop the legal handover of power.

Why aren't you suing?

No need.

Is it because you have no case and you seek a "win" on internet message boards?

The case for the people is coming, without a doubt.

Yep!

Trump has much more baggage than he did in 2016 and then there are other paedo candidates like Desantis.

Watch the hearings and read the file transcripts or follow Matt Taibbi who is a traditional liberal.

Yes, watch the hearing where GYM Jordan screams about the NYPOST being censored using (wait for it.....) A blow up of the issue of the NY POST from the day in question!

And watch as witness after witness says that Trump tried to suppress speech on Twitter using his government position.

Trump has much more baggage than he did in 2016

Nothing he can’t financially overcome

and then there are other paedo candidates like Desantis.

Name calling is not going to stop DeSantis.

Desantis when he was a school teacher groomed teenage girls and then got them drunk. Photo published.

Even Trump who has lost more than $1 billion cannot buy his presidency. Recently asked to explain why he used $100 million of his campaign money for his personal use.

Yet after all this, who is in the lead for President in 2024?

Donald J. Trump.

so that’s why Biden’s DOJ is scared and just throwing charges and allowing any/all ridiculous lawsuits hoping something, anything will stick

Desantis when he was a school teacher groomed teenage girls and then got them drunk. Photo published.

Yeah, and the Dems shelved that one, another failure. This is what scares the left so much about Ron, they don’t have anything on him.

Even Trump who has lost more than $1 billion cannot buy his presidency.

But he still has more than enough collateral and property to move forward with his run, and this is why investing is so important.

Recently asked to explain why he used $100 million of his campaign money for his personal use.

And? Seems like the Dems are running out things to snag Trump with.

Name calling is not going to stop DeSantis.

No, but his lack of anything regarding policy and the fact that he is an unlikable bully might.

Yet after all this, who is in the lead for President in 2024?

Donald J. Trump.

There is no rationalizing with a cult. Go figure.

so that’s why Biden’s DOJ is scared and just throwing charges and allowing any/all ridiculous lawsuits hoping something, anything will stick

Honestly, I think the DNC is licking their lips at a rematch. 7 million votes would be the FLOOR on their popular vote margin.

And Biden might get 400 electoral college votes against the Insurrectionist in Chief.

Nemo, Democrats do not want Biden to run

No, but his lack of anything regarding policy and the fact that he is an unlikable bully might.

If he is unlikable, Crist would have won and DeSantis effortlessly slayed this guy.

Unlikable?? ROFL

There is no rationalizing with a cult. Go figure. 

Democrats?

Honestly, I think the DNC is licking their lips at a rematch. 7 million votes would be the FLOOR on their popular vote margin. 

This time around and with the crime and inflation, the border, geopolitically...not sure.

And Biden might get 400 electoral college votes against the Insurrectionist in Chief.

Uh-huh..ROFL

The republic comments have stopped making any sense.

Not a word from them on the police officers who were attacked on Jan 6.
