Is that what you think I wrote? Are you illiterate as well?

No, really. Tell us the truth. Biden and Hillary warned us

If Biden and Hillary warned you about something how am I to explain it to you? I don't have any clue what you're taking about.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, the former chairman of the House January 6 committee, introduced legislation on Friday that would strip former President Donald Trump of Secret Service protection if he were sentenced to prison.

...

Why should the American public have to pay extra for his protection when he is sentenced to prison? If he is in danger, he will be placed in protective custody.

That's the law. And, let's face it - it is not as if the orange douchebag is going to be sentenced to a max security prison like Rikers Island or Folsom.

Most probably he would be sent to some country-club prison to serve out his sentence. He would be doing the same thing in prison that he did while at the WH. Goof off and play golf.

To their credit, the Left is doing everything in their power to start a Civil War and it's long overdue.

The pity is that instead of ending the Globalists shaking the ant jar, the ants will fight each other because we've been duped into believing the "other side" is our real enemy

Yes, they’re actually charging the criminal and threatening to put him in jail.

You were certainly very enthusiastic about locking Hillary up Frank. And Hillary didn’t commit any crimes that any investigator ever found.

But Trump, who has bragged about all the crimes he’s committed is being persecuted because he’s been arrested for the things that he’s admitted doing.

That’s quite the double standard you got going there Frank.

Bennie Thompson's bill is unconstitutional because it destroys the separation of powers between all branches of government--executive, legislative, and judicial. He is suggesting rule by legislation and the courts. Didn't Mr. Thompson take an Oath of office that guarantees the people he would obey the Constitution? Well, if he goes through the already poisonous situation, he is destroying the Constitution by way of silencing a President. And he did it by disrespecting the American Presidential branch of office. Look out, Patriots. If Congress supports this assault on separation of powers, we are no longer equals, presidents will never be respected again, and we will be a working oligarchic group of people with no freedom of speech, perilous representation, and the refusal of the best Congressional leaders to run for high office.

Congressfolks, please make sure we the people remain the free people the Founders of America intended us to be. Thanks.

There is nothing in the Constitution about Secret Service Protection. If you're arrested for committing fraud against your employer, and you're found guilty, you're going to lose your pension and retirement benefits from the company.

Trump was employed by the American people as President. If he's found guilty of fraud, he'll be losing his retirement benefits when he goes to jail. In Trump's case, it's not just medical coverage, it includes his Secret Service protection.

It's not like he's going to need kidnapping protection in jail.

Political lies are abundant, and a lot of the leftist leaders are using deceit to contine grabbing at straws to make Marxism acceptable. Others refuse to see the forest for all of the trees. Go figger! Lol

A top House Democrat wants to remove Trump's Secret Service protection if he's sent to prison

As a former president, Trump is currently entitled to Secret Service protection for life.

www.businessinsider.com

Rep. Bennie Thompson, the former chairman of the House January 6 committee, introduced legislation on Friday that would strip former President Donald Trump of Secret Service protection if he were sentenced to prison.

"Unfortunately, current law doesn't anticipate how Secret Service protection would impact the felony prison sentence of a protectee — even a former President," Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat, said in a statement released by his office. "It is regrettable that it has come to this, but this previously unthought-of scenario could become our reality."

Comment:
This is dangerous is left wing hate and violence.
This is backwards third world political thuggery.

This should profoundly bother and outrage every American, regardless of party affiliation or ideology. Think about the potential outcome of what this radical leftist is proposing. If Trump had no Secret Service protection and ended up getting killed, what would Thompson and his ilk have to say?

The Democrats are a violent political cult.

The crazy thing here is if President Trump were to take the initiative and fire his Secret Service detail preemptively in response, the left would have a conniption. What's he trying to "hide"?
