And so it begins.

[struth]

Yes, some who trump appointed work the way he wants them to work regardless of the law.

Jack Smith wasn't a Trump appointment...in fact he wasn't anyone's appointment, since it was done illegally by the demafacsist

 

[struth]

There was no lawfare, it's a vacuous talking point.

If there was no lawfare, why did they have to illegally put someone in place to "prosecute" him only to drop the cases once the election was over?

Trump transition figure warns DOJ lawyers: Get on board or get out

A conservative lawyer working on Donald Trump’s transition, Mark Paoletta, offered a stark warning to career Justice Department lawyers Monday that those who refuse to advance Trump’s agenda should resign or face the possibility of being fired.

“Once the decision is made to move forward, career employees are required to implement the President’s plan,” Paoletta wrote in a post on X responding to a POLITICO story detailing widespread fear among DOJ lawyers about being asked to advance or defend policies they consider unethical or illegal.

“If these career DOJ employees won’t implement President Trump’s program in good faith, they should leave,” Paoletta said. “Those employees who engage in so-called ‘resistance’ against the duly-elected President’s lawful agenda would be subverting American democracy (or upholding it). … [t]hose that take such actions would be subject to disciplinary measures, including termination.”

Paoletta recited a laundry list of Trump goals, including mass deportations, ending birthright citizenship, issuing pardons and commutations to Jan. 6 defendants, reversing “lawfare and persecution of political opponents,” and “holding accountable those who weaponized their government authority to abuse Americans.”

Let's begin with this, trump's goal coming in to the start of his admin is to purge the government of those viewed to be disloyal. This has been well advertised.

Now consider the ACLU plans to challenge the legality of trump using the law he plans to use to facilitate mass deportations.

https://www.usmessageboard.com/threads/i-heard-an-interesting-interview-with-the-head-of-the-aclu-yesterday.1134492/#post-35690588

If members of the DoJ agree with the ACLU's position, will they be fired before the matter can be adjudicated? Because it seems to me the admin is already looking for a pretense to fire people opposed to their policies...........policies which may be illegal.

In his first admin a number of high ranking DoJ officials said they world resign if Jeff Clark was made acting AG. No such officials will be part of the new admin if trump has his way.

To be clear, if DoJ employees try to block legal and ethical policy goals firing them is appropriate.

Elections have consequences. Time to root out the un-American democrats . Time to go on arrack mode . Make America Great Again .

 

[Independent thinker]

That is a fiction created by trump in order to discredit legitimate prosecutions for illegal acts.

Oh really? It is only democrat prosecutors trying to get Trump, with some of them even running on campaigns to get elected of getting Trump.

 

[berg80]

Obviously that depends on just what your definition of it is Berg

~S~

Actually, it doesn't. The entire "persecution" narrative is a lie.

 

[berg80]

with some of them even running on campaigns to get elected of getting Trump.

That's another lie.

Did Alvin Bragg campaign on a promise to prosecute Trump? What we know

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg resided over Trump's guilty verdict, but several high-profile Republicans have accused him of playing political games.

If there was no lawfare, why did they have to illegally put someone in place to "prosecute" him only to drop the cases once the election was over?

That was a ruling made by trump's sock puppet. You're repeating yourself.

We both know why the cases are being dropped. Disingenuous much?

That was a ruling made by the US Judicial branch, that has not been overturned. It's the law of the land.

Deal with it.

 

[LibertyKid]

How is that different than any other administration?

It isn't, but it's Trump, so it HUGE news

 

[eagle1462010]

Nobody at the DoJ is laughing. Nor are people who care about the rule of law.

Tell me about what Bill Clinton did.....

Listen to Berg call out the word LIE, lol. This from a toady who insisted that Trump colluded with the Russians; insisted that Biden was a brilliant minded person, and backed Kammy like IMwho, only to discover OPEEEDOPEEE was paid 1 million dollars to endorse her, lol.

This guys TRUTH sniffer is way, way, off. He is unable to tell lie from truth, fact from fiction......in essence, he and IMwho are incompetent, irrelevant, and immaterial! They both should be treated as such until they get an ounce of their credibility back, which will never happen because all of their debate points are taken from the DEMOCRANK playbook! We no longer believe them, most Americans no longer believe them, and they are so convoluted, most of them do NOT even believe themselves-)

 

[marvin martian]

You know trump has promised politically motivated investigations of enemies, right?

Makes sense. That's what the DemoKKKrats did to him for 8 years.

Pentagon officials discussing how to respond if Trump issues controversial orders​

Pentagon officials are holding informal discussions about how the Department of Defense would respond if Donald Trump issues orders to deploy active-duty troops domestically and fire large swaths of apolitical staffers, defense officials told CNN.

Trump has suggested he would be open to using active-duty forces for domestic law enforcement and mass deportations and has indicated he wants to stack the federal government with loyalists and “clean out corrupt actors” in the US national security establishment.

Trump in his last term had a fraught relationship with much of his senior military leadership, including now-retired Gen. Mark Milley who took steps to limit Trump’s ability to use nuclear weapons while he was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The president-elect, meanwhile, has repeatedly called US military generals “woke,” “weak” and “ineffective leaders.”

Officials are now gaming out various scenarios as they prepare for an overhaul of the Pentagon.

And it won't be because the appeal is going to be dropped. There is no point in pursuing it now that trump has the power to void all the indictments against him. The gravest denial of justice regarding the criminal acts of a then prez, now prez-elect, in US history.

You can drop that line now. Haven't you folks figured out it was always just a ruse to animate the base? There isn't and never was any prosecutorial misconduct on Smith's part or anyone else seeking to hold trump accountable for his crimes. It was created as a counter narrative for the minions to mindlessly repeat, as you have.

We don't know that. Its time to investigate to find that out. Based on some of his record, it doesn't look good.

‘No white knight’: Jack Smith’s record rife with mistrials, overturned convictions, judicial rebukes

Special counsel Jack Smith, who has brought federal charges against former President Donald Trump, is an “overzealous” prosecutor who relies on ethically dubious tactics, including media leaks and enticing witnesses, say those who have been caught in his snare.
