If nothing else the hearings thus far have achieved something notable.

Hey. Did you hear that what Trump’s lawyer said doesn’t establish shit about what Trump
“knew” or believed?

Nah. That would require an open and honest mind; so that’s beyond your skill set, BlindPoo.

Willful blindness is a criminal offense.

 

[BackAgain]

You've over played the denial of reality card. You need a new schtick.

I haven’t played any such cars at all. I’m challenging you lame libtards to for once support your dishonest claims. You can’t, though. If you were honest and smart and able to grasp what’s actually going on with the partisan committee circus side show, even a bombastic simpleton such as you might — at long last — understand that the committee is a fraud. They haven’t “shown” a damn thing.

Just look what Pelosi said when she was called as a witness.

Oh wait. The faux committee didn’t even ask for her testimony.

Willful blindness is a criminal offense.

No. Actually it’s not or most of the liberoids would be in need of some good legal advice.

Michael Cohen was charged and convicted with Trump as the anonymous co-conspirator in the stormy Daniels thing.... and Trump never charged......


This now is much more grave of a situation, I do realize.... Trump could perhaps work a plea deal, or postpone his trial until he can get a Republican president in office, to pardon him....

I dunno? You could be right?

Yes, but the OLC opinion is that a sitting prez can't be indicted. It's why Mueller didn't indict for Trump's obstruction of his investigation. The OLC prohibition no longer applies.

Willful blindness is a criminal offense.

Delusional beliefs aren't a defense for criminal behavior. Unless you are clinically insane.

 

[g5000]

No. Actually it’s not or most of the liberoids would be in need of some good legal advice.

Actually, it is. It is used by prosecutors all the time.

Your own willful blindness is not criminal. But when it comes to CEOs, Presidents, and others in positions of authority, it most certainly is a crime.

 

[g5000]

Delusional beliefs aren't a defense for criminal behavior. Unless you are clinically insane.

Trump went out of his way to push away everyone around him who was telling him he lost. He deliberately sought out those who would support his Big Lie.

That's literally a crime.

I'm challenging you to dispute any of the damning, factual testimony given by first hand witnesses to Trump's crimes. All of which are Repubs who worked for Trump.

As for proof of his guilt, starting reading.........

When a defendant is charged with a crime requiring knowledge of some fact, but the defendant deliberately avoided learning whether the fact in question obtained, it is common practice among federal courts to give so-called willful ignorance jury instructions. Such instructions tell the jury that it may find the knowledge element for the crime to be satisfied by the defendant's willful ignorance of the relevant fact (also called the inculpatory proposition)

Will conservatives ever be able to go to their reliably dishonest right wing sites again without reflecting on how they have been mislead about 1/6 and all it entails?

Yes but thanks so much for your concern.

Ever hear of willful ignorance?

Ever hear of willful ignorance?

Trump was taking advice on how to overturn an election from a guy who had that as his only credential, even while his AG and campaign manager told him ... he lost the vote. And anyone claims Trump's actions were ... honest?

But if this "thing" cements Trump having to run on the Big Lie ... gop voters may be ok with a change. I realize it may horrify people, but honestly DeSantis hasn't done anything on wedge or social issues that would totally not make me vote for him. Not really on covid either. Had I lived in Fla, I'd have gotten the shots, worked at home and only ventured out to walk and obtain food and vodka, and long for legal weed. Pretty much what I did. LOL

My wife got pretty sick, but .... the dems covered her meds.

Nonsense. Under some circumstances it fails as a defense. But in and of itself it is not a crime as you erroneously said.

And you have zero evidence of any willful blindness. As usual, you’re just talking out of your ass.

 

[berg80]

Yes but thanks so much for your concern.

I agree. Since there is no evidence being lied to has changed the consumption habits of right wing media disinformation by conservatives. It's why the country is in the mess it's in.

Pure nonsense.

 

[berg80]

And you have zero evidence of any willful blindness.

You must have missed the testimony of multiple witnesses, including former AG Billy the Bagman, that Trump was told he lost in no uncertain terms.

 

[berg80]

Pure nonsense.

What did I tell I tell you about overplaying the denial of reality card?

 

[BackAgain]

Ever hear of willful ignorance?

Sure. I’ve seen your posts.

 

[BackAgain]

You must have missed the testimony of multiple witnesses, including former AG Billy the Bagman, that Trump was told he lost in no uncertain terms.

No. I’ve discussed it here in fact. I have told you that you’re a moron. Do you now know that you’re a moron?

 

[Ralph Norton]

I agree. Since there is no evidence being lied to has changed the consumption habits of right wing media disinformation by conservatives. It's why the country is in the mess it's in.

You do know that the "right wing media" is simply the mirror image of the "left wing media" don't you?
Other than right/ left they are absolutely identical.
