Are Republican's claims valid that Trump's indictment is 'political'?

[L.K.Eder]

I'll bet fox told you that, didn't they?

he resurched it.

Hey......dumb shit.....?

Was she indicted for destroying evidence under supboena?

You idiot...

You need to be careful what you say to sock puppets.

Some of them have power here and love to use it.

When was the last time anyone WAS EVER indicted based on information retrieved by raiding their lawyer?

For that matter, NAME ONE HUMAN BEING in the entire WRITTEN HISTORY OF LAW that has has their FUCKING LAWYER'S OFFICE RAIDED BY THE MOTHER FUCKING GOVERNMENT.

Name the man, name the lawyer.

Name the crime, name the probable cause.

Hell... Show me the probable cause affidavit to raid Cohen....

Even the fuckin bolsheviks didn't do that.

According to the FBI’s notes, longtime Clinton aide Cheryl Mills instructed Combetta’s company, Platte River Networks, to delete a set of archived emails in December 2014. The Denver-based company maintained Clinton’s server.

FBI: No evidence Clinton ordered deletion of subpoenaed email archive

“We did not have evidence establish someone told him to do that.”

Clinton and Mills told the FBI that they had no knowledge of the technician’s deletion of the emails. The technician, according to the report, “was aware of the existence of the [Benghazi Committee] preservation request and the fact that it meant he should not disturb Clinton’s email data on the [Platte River Networks] server.”

“His account is credible,” Comey said Wednesday. “He was told to do it in 2014, screwed up and didn’t do it, panicked when he realized he hadn’t and then raced back in and did it after Congress asked for the records and the New York Times wrote about them.”

The FBI director also defended the Justice Department’s decision to give Combetta immunity in exchange for talking to investigators, which Comey said he requested because Combetta had deleted the archive.

“We learned that no one had directed him to do that,” Comey said in response to questioning from House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah).

Any logical person knows the indictment is a political maneuver to keep Trump from running. Whether the indictment is legit or not, doesn't matter. The Dems have done nothing but try to keep trump from running since the last election.

Absolutely, without question. Bragg doesn't even have jurisdiction in a federal campaign finance law violation case, not to mention which is a civil thing and not criminal. States don't indict people over federal campaign finance law violations and even the federal government doesn't arrest people over them. It's nothing but TDS abuse of power.

The prosecutor literally has no standing.
a lot like how all of the election fraud cases couldn't find a court to even look at the case.
Because -

What about her own husband, lying to the American people. Clinton was just as bad of a human being as Trump. And the posturing during Clinton's administration to forgive and forget what he did only points to the cult like manner that both dems and republicans will stoop too to justify their gods.

I suggest that such claims by Republicans, itself, is political. It certainly gives Republicans, many of whom, privately, have expressed their dislike of Trump, while publically either being indifferent or approving of him, the claims of 'political' give Republicans a political advantage if they succeed in convincing a large swath of the electorate that the claim is true.

But is it true? Let's take a deep dive (and please, those with short attention spans are not invited).

The recent indictment of former President Donald Trump on over 30 counts of crimes has brought to light once again the problematic claim of Republicans that this is a political move. This claim conveniently ignores the numerous examples of hypocrisy in their own actions, such as their investigations into Hunter Biden and current President Joe Biden, both of whom have not been indicted for any crimes in which there is one salient and glaring fact: Rep. Comer's investigation, when assigned to the task, his committee was investigating Jared Kushner, which he stalled in favor of investigating Hunter Biden (but the target of the investigation, as admitted by Comer, is Joe Biden), and to date, their 'memo' does not actually prove any illegal activity by the 'Biden family', a characterization which, though intended to imply, does not include include Joe Biden

Moreover, this claim also overlooks the fact that Trump's own family members, including Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, have benefited from their connections to foreign officials, which could potentially constitute conflicts of interest and unethical behavior.

Let us first examine the claims made by Republicans that Trump's indictment is politically motivated. While it is true that politics can play a role in legal proceedings, it is important to note that the evidence presented against Trump is extensive and has been gathered over several years by multiple investigators. It is also worth mentioning that the indictments were issued by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, which is not a partisan entity and has a long history of impartiality.

Contrast this with the Republican-led investigations into Hunter Biden, who is not, nor has he ever been, a public official. These investigations seem to have been motivated purely by political gain and have not resulted in any criminal charges being brought against Biden. It is also worth noting that Joe Biden himself has not been indicted for any crimes, despite the intense scrutiny he has faced from Republicans.

However, the hypocrisy of the Republicans does not end there. Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, held a senior advisory position in the White House and reportedly received $2 billion from Mohammed Bin Salman, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. This payment was allegedly made in exchange for soft treatment by the Trump White House, and Bin Salman himself is suspected of involvement in the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Similarly, Ivanka Trump also held a senior advisory position in the White House and received accelerated trademarks worth millions from China. These trademarks allowed her to sell products to the tune of millions in profits while her father was negotiating with China on a trade deal.

It is difficult to argue that these actions by Kushner and Ivanka Trump do not constitute conflicts of interest and potentially unethical behavior. Yet, Republicans have largely ignored these examples of possible corruption within their own party.

In conclusion, the Republican claim that Trump's indictment is politically motivated is problematic and ignores the extensive evidence gathered against him. Moreover, it highlights the hypocrisy of their investigations into Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, who have not been indicted for any crimes given that no evidence has ever been forthcoming (though plenty of implication and innuendo), while ignoring the potential conflicts of interest and unethical behavior of their own party members, such as Kushner and Ivanka Trump. It is important for us to hold all public officials, regardless of party affiliation, accountable for their actions and to demand transparency and integrity in our political system.

I am thinking that this is some type of satire?

 

[Billiejeens]

Can we stop pretending......

This is the democrat party showing their enemies no one is safe now............they showed Trump supporters with the jailing of Jan. 6 rioters, and now they are showing the republican party exactly how things are now....

What needs to happen to try to stop this....?

Republican prosecutors across the country need to dust off any and all files on corrupt democrats...which is really all of them........take these cases to republican grand juries and indict all of them...........

The only way to stop this before we get to the mass graves stage of the democrat party operation, is to make it hurt for the democrat party politicians......

I am fairly confident that we need to skip a stage at this point.

The Democratic Party has destroyed the integrity of the Media, The FBI, the NIH, the CDC, the office of the Attorney General and the Presidency. Spare us your lectures about Donald Trump and the Republicans. You are just another stooge and possibly another paid shill for the Democratic Party.

Some law professors stood up for slavery, continuing to use child workers, denying the vote to women, and against marriage between the races. Some law professors are just wrong.

We're discussing the Trump case, not "red-herrings".

Law professors know the LAW dumbass. They teach it.

Of course not.

Republicans are lying, as usual.

You mentioned "some law professors", total bullshit.
You mentioned "supposedly knew the Law", but didn't specify which laws they didn't know, duh.

[Independentthinker]

You saw the indictment?

Isn't that what he was investigating? Glad to see you are on my side though if what I said turns out to be the case. As far as I know they weren't investigating Trump for the murder of someone on 5th Ave.

I don't know what he was investigating.

Since hush money payments are not illegal, I have a hard time believing that is the charge.

I know you don't know the charge(s) but do you really think they went through all this to ultimately charge him with something legal?

That sounds pretty fucking crazy to me.
