Maybe if she asks Daddy Mitch nicely they’ll be able to something.
So weird that she’s asking for a truth commission when all of right-wing media is assuming she knew about if not orchestrated the attack because reasons.

Has anyone else watched the National Geographic Channel - North Korea, Mind of a Dictator? In their Hanoi meeting apparently Kim led by telling Trump the story of how he killed his uncle. Some crazy shit. Also his sister is basically Shiv from Succession - and might be in charge of the whole thing.

The lawsuit contends that Mr. Trump and Mr. Giuliani violated the Ku Klux Klan Act, an 1871 statute that includes protections against violent conspiracies that interfered with Congress’s constitutional duties; the suit also names the Proud Boys, the far-right nationalist group, and the Oath Keepers militia group. The legal action accuses Mr. Trump, Mr. Giuliani and the two groups of conspiring to incite a violent riot at the Capitol, with the goal of preventing Congress from certifying the election.

TIL there is a Ku Klux Klan Act.
Obviously Trump violated it.

To be fair, he probably was told there was a Klu Klux Klan Act that presidents must abide by and he thought that meant he was required to act like the Klu Klux Klan.

I learned about it from 5-4. Thats how we got the ability to sue police officers and gov officials. Then I learned the supreme court 100 years later invented qualified immunity to roll that back lmao.

Barely reaches the mildly surprising threshold for me.

seems like this has 0% chance to work, even in lawbro world right?
I mean even if a lot of these don’t work it seems good to just avalanche them with lawsuits to bankrupt them. Everyone on the right can donate to their legal issues instead of politicians.
One of the legit consequences I saw for Trump was just endless lawsuits. Some of them will win and eventually it will bankrupt his entire family. Like I expect thousands of legit lawsuits to come his way. Only thing that can save him is the supreme court making up some rule about suing former presidents.

Trump being humiliated and having assets seized would be much greater schadenfreude than going to prison.
Bannon was gone fairly early on in the administration. I have it on good authority that dementia does not get better with time,
That being said I don’t believe anything bannon says about anything.

My uncle with early stage dementia was worse than Trump is now. So I seriously doubt Trump was there in 2016.
I think he’s just got the FoxNews brainworms + old. A terrible combination.
I don’t think he has dementia. While a raging asshole, he was pretty quick on his feet during the debates, especially the first one.
I’ve spent a fair bit of time around people with dementia and the people saying Trump had it often seemed to be pretty ignorant about the condition imo.
