To prosecute Trump would “very likely spark civil unrest, maybe civil war,”: ex-US attorney Barbara McQuade—failing to hold him accountable even worse

[basquebromance]

It’s now “virtually inevitable” the famously cautious Garland will launch a criminal investigation of Trump , said Georgetown law professor Neal Katyal in The NYT.
The committee has already laid out strong evidence Trump committed “serious federal crimes,” including attempted obstruction of an official proceeding—in this case the Jan. 6 vote certification. He might also be charged with “conspiracy to defraud the US” by collaborating with others to send falsely chosen Republican electors, and with wire fraud, for duping his own supporters into donating $250 million for a legal fund to overturn the
election—a fund the committee said never existed

Does the Justice Department want to charge Trump?

A person familiar with the matter told NBC News there have been conversations inside DOJ about the implications of pursuing a case against the ex-president, should it come to that.

Garland won't prosecute Trump.

He doesn't prosecute ANYONE.

He's a leftist DA, they don't prosecute, they let people go

Cipollone Reaches Deal With Jan. 6 Panel To Testify In Transcribed Interview Friday

Former White House counsel Pat Cipollone, a key figure in then-President Trump’s inner circle who pushed back against some of his attempts to subvert the election results, has reportedly reached a deal to sit for a transcribed interview before the Jan. 6 Select Committee on Friday, according to multiple reports.

Cipollone is appearing after the panel subpoenaed him for testimony.

Cipollone will reportedly appear in private before the committee, the New York Times reported, citing a person briefed on the matter.

The deal for Cipollone to testify comes a week after the committee subpoenaed him, following shocking testimony from Cassidy Hutchinson, former aide to Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.

Speaking of holding the Orange Menace accountable. Is this the Cassidy affect?

Is this the Cassidy affect?

No it's just more fake news.

The Democrats seem to think we're willing to rubber stamp their "official procedures".

But no, we're not.
