Trump Indicted

[Dante Reawakened]

7 charges and 37 counts.

Even with sentencing guidlines for first time offenders, Trump's still looking at between 9 and 33 years, depending on if they run concurrently or consecutively.

isn't a charge, a count?

It's still a quid pro quo. So Obama was involved to cover up biden's crimes

Not for Joe it wasn't. He was delivering Obama's policy.

Your entire silly conspiracy fell apart over 7 words.

Its gonna take a might more than 7 words for Trump to get out from under his 71 indictments.

Today is indeed a dark day for the United States of America. It is unconscionable for a President to indict the leading candidate opposing him. Joe Biden kept classified documents for decades. I, and every American who believes in the rule of law, stand with President Trump against this grave injustice. House Republicans will hold this brazen weaponization of power accountable

You clearly dud not read the indictment.

When Biden gets indicted for having classified documents as a senator I'll stop calling it a banana republic

A charge is crime. A count is how many times that crime was committed. So you might have a charge for obstruction and a charge for making false statements. And multiople counts of each.

Trump (last time I checked), was charged with 37 counts of violating 7 laws.

Pence cooperated fully with the authorities. His team informed authorities about the docs. The docs were returned within days.

No charges.

Biden did exactly what Pence did.

Trump didn't.

That's why Trump is under 71 indictments.

And you can't get Joe for so much as a parking ticket.

It sounds like word salad. Trump is being charged on 37 counts. I could say there is one charge. lol


What's the difference between being indicted and charged?

“Being charged” with a crime means the prosecutor filed charges. An indictment means the grand jury filed charges against the defendant. Regardless of how the state moves forth with filing charges, the results are the same for the defendant: an arrest and formal charges.

Banana republic charges get sent to the supreme court

Putting aside all the "what about!" Bullshit, those indictments are damning.

Its bad. His conspiracy with Nauta is going to be *really* hard to explain.

Special Counsel Jack Smith Delivers Statement

Washington, DC

Good afternoon. Today, an indictment was unsealed charging Donald J. Trump with felony violations of our national security laws as well as participating in a conspiracy to obstruct justice.

This indictment was voted by a grand jury of citizens in the Southern District of Florida, and I invite everyone to read it in full to understand the scope and the gravity of the crimes charged.

The men and women of the United States intelligence community and our armed forces dedicate their lives to protecting our nation and its people. Our laws that protect national defense information are critical to the safety and security of the United States and they must be enforced. Violations of those laws put our country at risk.

Adherence to the rule of law is a bedrock principle of the Department of Justice. And our nation’s commitment to the rule of law sets an example for the world. We have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone. Applying those laws. Collecting facts. That’s what determines the outcome of an investigation. Nothing more. Nothing less.

The prosecutors in my office are among the most talented and experienced in the Department of Justice. They have investigated this case hewing to the highest ethical standards. And they will continue to do so as this case proceeds.

It’s very important for me to note that the defendants in this case must be presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. To that end, my office will seek a speedy trial in this matter. Consistent with the public interest and the rights of the accused. We very much look forward to presenting our case to a jury of citizens in the Southern District of Florida.

In conclusion. I would like to thank the dedicated public servants of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with whom my office is conducting this investigation and who worked tirelessly every day upholding the rule of law in our country. I’m deeply proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Thank you very much.

There are 31 violations of the Espionage Act listed in the indictment.

Each one carries a maximum penalty of 10 year in prison.

Under sentencing guidelines, Trump will get a fraction of that time if convicted.

Still years. But not 300.

"I was just kidding!"

Wow. Just how stupid and credulous do you have to be to buy into that?
