    Just waiting on the party of law and order to spin this one around. Their ability to perform gymnastics is unparalleled. Anything that comes of this won’t have any appreciable effect on his cult base, unfortunately.

    I feel like the most trustworthy white guy in Georgia was Boss Hog in the 70s and it went downhill from there. They probably had to tone down the political corruption in Georgia for that show just to make it more believable.

  3. Life is going to hit trump hard when he loses the election and all these lawsuits come due

    Stochastic Terrorism – there were no bomb threats to schools before Vance and Trump

    Summoning literal Nazis to a small town because you can’t stop spreading hateful lies ought to put you under the jail.

  6. It might be hard to get these to stick for political reasons, but it should be easy to have these charges pursued against Musk and other well known names spreading this misinformation.

    Trump could (insert the worst thing imaginable that a human could do) and 70 million sociopaths would still vote for him.

  8. “Ohio law includes a rarely used mechanism that allows private citizens to pursue criminal charges.”

    I have a strong suspicion this was put in place by Republicans…. I fully expect major backpedaling for Glorious Leader.

    Also, just regarding some of the Trump administration that have been convicted of crimes:

    Donald Trump was charged, convicted, and is awaiting sentencing.

    Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

    Trump’s former campaign vice chairman, Rick Gates, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

    Trump’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

    Trump’s former adviser and former campaign aide, Roger Stone, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

    Trump’s former adviser and former White House aide Peter Navarro, was charged, convicted, and is currently in prison.

    The Trump Organization’s former CFO, Allen Weisselberg, was charged, convicted, and sentenced to prison.

    Trump’s former White House national security advisor, Michael Flynn, was charged and convicted.

    Trump’s former chief strategist, Steve Bannon, was charged with wire fraud and money laundering, in addition to a conviction in a contempt case similar to Navarro’s. He’s currently awaiting sentencing.

    Though he was later acquitted at trial, Trump’s former inaugural committee chair, Tom Barrack, was charged with illegally lobbying Trump on behalf of a foreign government. (Elliot Broidy was the vice chair of Trump’s inaugural committee, and he found himself at the center of multiple controversies, and also pled guilty to federal charges related to illegal lobbying.)

    Two lawyers associated with Trump’s post-defeat efforts, Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell, have pleaded guilty to election-related crimes.

  10. Charges include:

    – Making False Alarms
    – Committing Telecommunications Harassment
    – Committing Aggravated Menacing
    – Violating the Prohibition Against Complicity

  11. The Rapist and the Couch Fucker could yell “Fire” in a crowded theater and their cult followers would figure out a way to justify it…

    They’re going to need to install voting machines in port-a-pottys for those voting for trump.

    As the man of the relationship you gotta grow a pair and talk to her dad about it yourself, personally I feel like thag would be the most effective way to go about it. Don’t be really submissive and awkward about it be stern and confident in what your saying to get your point across and don’t take any bullshit off him because what he is doing is really fucked yo

  14. bambam_mcstanky2 on

    They dismissed the misdemeanor stuff they won’t have the courage to bring felony charges forward. They should but they won’t the only chance of holding these people accountable is from the ballot box

  15. The article says the court found no probable cause to issue misdemeanor warrants. The prosecutor’s office is reviewing charges brought by a **private citizen**. 

    So…

  16. Considering that the citizens of Springfield have been put at great risk by these hucksters antics it makes sense to pursue charges.

  17. Is the false alarm charge like calling in a fake report of a crime to police? That wouldn’t really fit here. And I’m seeing aggravated menacing involving specific threats to people’s physical safety, often involving weapons. Not sure that fits either. The problem is that Trump and other MAGAs can use relatively general language and still somehow signal to their people to do the terrorizing for them. So the speech of Trump himself usually isn’t illegal on its own. 

  18. “The charges were filed last month by Guerline Jozef, leader of the nonprofit Haitian Bridge Alliance. Ohio law includes a rarely used mechanism that allows private citizens to pursue criminal charges.

    The charges include:

    Making False Alarms
    Committing Telecommunications Harassment
    Committing Aggravated Menacing
    Violating the Prohibition Against Complicity”

    I love this for them!!

  19. Any person that takes away a woman’s rights for proper medical care, Hates Women, or they wouldn’t have done it

  20. >The charges include:

    >* Making False Alarms
    >* Committing Telecommunications Harassment
    >* Committing Aggravated Menacing
    >* Violating the Prohibition Against Complicity

    Wow, those charges sound eminently reasonable; they’re exactly what they knowingly and willfully did.

    It was my understanding that much like taking $1,000,000 and simply throwing it all over the street, that you **also** **can’t** intentionally cause panic via any *other* method, either.

    This reaaaally should constitute being considered as having created societal panic. The violence and bomb threats are clearly the results of said panic being caused.

    Which is, obviously, extremely against the law.
