Donald Trump reposts a profane, disqualifying threat against liberals

Opinion: Donald Trump should not have promoted a potentially dangerous, expletive-filled verbal ambush of MSNBC talk show host Joe Scarborough.

(really bad expletive) made me lol. Wanna bet it rhymes with blunt?

More topically, it gives Judge Merchan one more log to put on the camel’s back leading up to the sentencing hearing.

It would be fascinating if the sentence for the 34 convictions was some form of probation — and an add-on of some jail time for multiple and serious violations of the gag order.

SENATOR VANCE CALLS FOR CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION INTO JUDGE MERCHAN
“Prosecutors in the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg—from Christopher Conroy to Matthew Colangelo to Bragg himself—have also shown themselves to be plausible coconspirators.”
WASHINGTON, D.C. – In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, Senator JD Vance (R-OH) called on the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to open a criminal investigation into Judge Juan Merchan for his illegal deprivation of President Donald J. Trump’s First Amendment rights. In his letter, Senator Vance argues Judge Merchan’s conduct against President Trump, including his imposition of a gag order, his refusal to dismiss prospective jurors who harbored obvious anti-Trump bias, and his barring of exculpatory evidence, could amount to criminal deprivation of rights violations under 18 U.S.C. §§ 241–42.
18 U.S.C. § 241 criminalizes conspiracies to “injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate” others from enjoying their federally protected rights, while 18 U.S.C. § 242 prohibits any person acting under color of law from depriving individuals of their rights under the Constitution and federal law, including officials acting “within” and “beyond” the bounds of their lawful authority. U.S. Supreme Court precedent expressly declares that improper conduct of judges is subject to prosecution under statute.

Like blue crabs in a big steamer pot, I imagine the clattering and scrabbling is at its most frantic a short time before it ends.

I hope.
