US Politics Thread

[BlueHammer85]

The committee investigating the January 6 storming of the US Capitol is recommending criminal charges against former President Donald Trump.

They include conspiracy to defraud the United States; obstructing an official proceeding (the certification of Joe Bidens election victory); conspiracy to make a false statement and inciting or assisting an insurrection.


The recommendation is mainly symbolic - with the US Justice Department responsible for deciding whether or not to prosecute Mr Trump

But committee chair, Bernie Thompson, said: "We have every confidence that the work of this committee will help provide the road map to justice."

A number of recommendations are made in the final report, which accuses Mr Trump engaging in a "multi-part conspiracy" to overturn the election.
"We will also show that evidence we've gathered points to further action beyond the power of this committee or the congress to help ensure accountability in the law," he said.

The commitee did their bit and did it really well. Nothing will ever come of it though

I actually think its the opposite, though I'd prefer you to be right as Greene is far more dangerous.

But any public spat between these two grifting dumbshits is delightful.

Seems that MTG has taken the bribe to back KMcC. She will be on Committees next year. The rest of the shithouse caucus are still out in the cold playing hardball.

I suspected KMcC knows how many he needs to flip and that he will delight at wining the contest with Bobo and Gates still out in the cold.

This will get really interesting if he comes up short on the votes. That would be pure gold.

Trump has backed KMcC so it's hard to see how he doesn't gain enough votes. These idiots are just making themselves look stupid. They've lost this fight but that won't stop them doing what they do. Making a shit show.
