Trump can be held civilly liable in Jan. 6 riot, judges rule

[Mac1958]

Suddenly we have standards?

When did THAT happen?

 

[Oddball]

That was the goal of Trump and Brietbart... to destroy confidence in all US institutions.

The institutions don't need their help...They're destroying the alleged confidence all by themselves.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Good!

 

[Ordinary Guy]

Of course, the only way Democrats can beat Trump is keep the lawsuits coming. You should be ashamed supporting a Party that is destroying all faith and trust in the US Justice System.

yes BLM fires and the violence supported by the leftwing politicians and now we see this pure witch hunt to eliminate Trump from the field. I am ashamed to tell people where I am from when traveling out of the country due to our political atmosphere.

Republicans faced a tough decision and sided with doing the right thing
I am proud of them

How is this legal? Can politicians who encouraged unrest during the Floyd riots also be held accountable? Americans do realize that Europe is going further right and it is a perceived bias, silencing and persecution of the rights opinion that is driving people to come out and vote. Newsflash, neither Cheney nor Romney would win in 2024.

He can be sued for actions not related to his Presidential function. The court determined this was not a Presidential function.

Federal Court has held that Trump can be personally sued for damages related to the J6 events. While there are already about 14 cases, this will likely expand greatly as other police and politicians there sue as well.

Well of course the corrupt courts did.

That's what corruption looks like.

Republicans did the right thing

About half voted to expel Santos. Almost every Democrat voted against him

GOP Rep. George Santos expelled from House

The House voted Friday to expel New York GOP Rep. George Santos over ethics violations, making him only the sixth lawmaker ever to be kicked out of the chamber.

Another win for the good guys

In a Banana Republic political opponents are punished for opposing the ruling regime.

Actually, in every Republic, you will be punished for trying to overthrow the government.

Besides, this happened on January 6, 2021. Technically your orange douchebag was the ruling regime. Try to keep up.

 

[Auld Phart]

Good. That must be why he's tweeting that Capitol cops should be arrested.

the one that murdered Ashlii should have been.

 

[Tommy Tainant]

It seems rather harsh and I understand why Mr Santos is feeling so bitter.
After all the GOP is busy supporting a bigger criminal in the shape of Mr trump. There seems to be a mismatch in their application of moral standards,
George is a shit but his crimes are far less serious than those of trump.

No one tried to overthrow the government you dipshit.

The House voted Friday to expel Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) from Congress, an embarrassing end to his brief legislative career that was built on lies from the start.

Rep. George Santos Expelled From Congress

The House voted to eject the New York Republican after its ethics panel alleged he spent campaign money on Botox, designer fashion and other personal items.

www.huffpost.com

The final vote was 311 to 114. You can read the expulsion resolution here.

Their action comes after a House Ethics Committee investigation concluded last month that Santos spent thousands of dollars in campaign funds on personal services and products, such as Botox treatments, Hermès designer products and access to a website used primarily by sex workers. The panel also alleged that Santos reported fake donations to his campaign in order to persuade donors to give him even more money ― and then kept all of that money for himself.

And yet, nobody cares.

Waaa

 

[Auld Phart]

So you're the one! Well, she would probably receive two votes as I assume she might vote for herself also...

Yea

I doubt even her dad would vote for her,

 

[RhodyPatriot]

Waaa

Don't cry.

Trump's 2024 victory will cheer ya up.

 

[Dragonlady]

Fine. Now the Somali skank should step down.

What was she arrested for?????
