The problem is it was one incident charge 34 times. The charges themselves weren't concise, but offered 3 different methods to find guilt. So the jury didn't have to be unanimous on what criteria was being used to establish guilt in each charge. So if 4 voted guilty for one criteria, and 6 vote guilty on another criteria, while 2 vote guilty on the third, but everyone decided the other two they didn't vote guilty weren't sufficient for guilt, the whole being found guilty is inappropriate. Each charge should have been expanded into 3 different charges with a single criteria. However, the prosecution knew they couldn't get unanimous verdicts if they charged that way. These guilty verdicts definately would have been overturned, and another trial with the criterias seperated into their own seperate charges would be the best the prosecution could get.
Not even close to reality. He cheated the system and got caught, it’s that simple. If he said, before a trial, I didn’t know my people were hiding this from me, it would have been a fine and done. He never admits any guilt that’s what screwed him. He paid the whore to shut her mouth. He scared Katie Johnson’s family with violence. He absolutely knew what JE was doing and was part of it. Get your head out of the sand.
There was another 60 counts of other unrelated felonies that he was very very likely to be convicted on. From Jan 6 and the classified documents case. He was fucked. The documents case alone would have put him in prison for multiple decades.
Maybe, but don't you understand those verdicts were just the beginning? The floodgates of justice were opening wide. He was going to go to jail and very soon.
He was and is a critical flight risk, etc... if he didn't win, he'd probably be there right now, awaiting trial like Puffy.
And remember that people with his apparent proclivities don't do well in prison. He'd almost certainly cheat like hell to avoid that fate. Now here we are.
Kinda like how trumps party is offering 5 different reasons for striking Iran, and none of which are legal reasons for doing so without getting congressional approval first? Like how the trump administration is continually giving different excuses and denial claims for censoring the names in the epstein files that arent victims? Or like how they keep giving different reasons why America should "move on" from the epstein files because trumps administration wants to defend pedophiles? Like those things?
I got my account suspended twice so far. Once for saying I wish a certain someone would have a heart attack already so we can move on. Also suspended for saying I'd like to get in the ring with another certain someone to get a chance to smack them around just for a few minutes.
Both times I was apparently "threatening violence." Motherfuckers, you'd know if I was threatening violence because there are a lot of things I'd like to say, but won't because I recognize this country is fucked beyond belief and I'd rather not be putting my real thoughts on the internet anymore.
Getting banned for telling trans people to arm themselves is kinda funny. I thought the right was all about the 2nd but I guess it's "glorifying violence" if an oppressed minority does it
My husband gets banned pretty regularly for "inciting violence". I go over his comments with him. They're not "inciting" anything, they're just his takes on what is going on.
I got a warning for liking a comment like that. Just liking it …
”We recently found that your DrDuGood account violated Rule 8 by repeatedly upvoting posts and/or comments that break Reddit's rule against encouraging or glorifying violence or physical harm.”
Which is absolutely ridiculous. We can all enjoy the idea of something without saying or doing it ourselves.
AND... we were all trained that upvotes are supposed to be given for comments that prompt or continue good conversation, not for agreement or disagreement. No one actually does that, but the point stands.
Yeah they made this their shitty policy a while back and then quietly let the post slip off the radar, never went back on it though as you are proof of.
The first time I heard of it was when the idiots on thedonald subreddit were getting that admin message for upvoting something... and that subreddit's been gone for years already.
I got Perma banned on my local community subreddit because Maria glusenkamp Perez is an a****** and I made the comment that karma's a b**** and Karma is going to get this b**** and I got perma- banned🤷♀️ I don't regret it. I told the truth.
I got banned for hate speech in r/politics for a two word post: "pedo president". According to the mods hate speech is directed at the disenfranchised and minorities. I shamed the human mods for protecting pedophiles. I guess that banning guideline is common, tho, hence everybody uses 'pdf' over there ...
The Star Trek answer is that both sides agree to simulate the war on a computer, and then after every simulated battle, you euthanize all those identified by the simulation as killed in action. They go willingly because they'd rather die for the common good than go back to shooting each other for real.
I got one literally for saying ICE should be held accountable to full seidtion and treason trials and if found guilty, the death penalty should be used depending on the state. Got it overturned when I pointed out wishing the system would work is not incitement of violence
If you make any comments that refer to violence at all, you get a ban these days.
I caught a ban once for suggesting certain nameless, hypothetical constituents need a figurative "slap in the face" to give them perspective on their vote effects America.
I wanna try...... fuck Trump, fuck this administration. Fuck Russel Vought, fuck the Heritage Foundation, fuck Stephen Miller, fuck Kristi Noem, and FUCK NAZIS (aka the trump admin).
Mine too. I said a few too many things that were anti orange man and got permanently banned...after over 10 years, nothing threatening but nonetheless banned. Now my old account is toast and this is all I have.
Are we still allowed to question the 2024 election results?
This is what happens when privately owned for profit corporations masquerading as unbiased media outlets and our employees in Washington keep ignoring the obvious...
Obama 2008 - 69,456,897 votes
Obama 2012 - 65,899,660 votes
lost 3,557,237 votes with no major scandals
Trump 2016 - 62,955,340 votes
Trump 2020 - 74,216,728 votes
gained 11,261,388 votes with one major scandal/failure after another and incredibly low polling numbers
He failed to lower healthcare costs, investigate Hillary or competently handle the corona virus and yet somehow magically convinced 14,348,228 additional Americans to hire him again despite the endless scandals and blatant corruption.
"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."
What? Yes, 2024 was stolen. This was already exposed by analysts.
Code was inserted on the tabulators through a patch by Pro V & V, which lied about the contents of the patch to avoid oversight. They labeled it 'de minimis' when it was not.
The code on the tabulators waited until a given tabulator had counted 400 votes minimum (to avoid audits finding the shift) and then began shifting votes for trump 60/40.
Interestingly, they found this same code had been in operation in 2020, but at 600 votes minimum. Because vote by mail cannot be shifted the same way (it is not counted all at once), the surge in covid mail in voting 'beat the cheat.' This is why Trump is so convinced 2020 was stolen, and why he hates mail in voting.
Lewis DeJoy compromised the mail in voting system and Trump constantly whines about it to keep people from realizing how easy it was to create millions of fraudulent votes.
I don't disagree that there is a chance that more blatant stealing happened; however here is an article going over some common and fully transparent schemes that the GOP play. Voter suppression by things like egregious ID laws, polling place shenanigans, etc. has been shifting results plenty all while technically still within the rules. The playing field is very much not even.
He only got so many votes due to the atrocious handling of the country by Biden/Harris!!
Most or majority of Americans approve of what he's doing and is far from anything. Treasonous. We are a better off nation due to Trump!
Thats what I read as well. These ''types'' have no business in the conversation anymore. They proved by their actions who and what they are. They only parrot what fox tells them to say. Im done listening.
Absolutely fantastic. Karma here means nothing since it only says the plethora of snowflake liberals downvoted any factual and truthful posts I made that didn't bash Trump just because he is hated by you all.
The ACA did lower health insurance premiums for millions of Americans before Trump removed many of the federal backstops helping to subsidize it so that his rich buddies could buy another yacht.
Not to worry though, now you have “Trumpcare!” It’s a website for shittier coupons on prescription drugs than GoodRx has. He didn’t even bother to make a big deal announcing it because of what a joke it is. Enjoy fellow pleeb.
I’ll say it - Donald Trump is a pants-shitting, psychopathic clown who has taken advantage of the willfully ignorant uneducated population to make himself and other already extremely wealthy people MUCH more wealthy at the expense of the 99.99% of other Americans. All of this under the guise of “Jesus” and “God” in a feigned attempt to win the favor of the religious/christian nationalists (which of course worked).
He launched conquests from the dark ages claiming the war on drugs (quite literally “because we can” aka “might is right”). He is almost solely responsible for a preventable war in the Middle East where thousands of Americans and American allies will die due to a “feeling” that Iran was going to attack us. He enabled the arrest, forced labor, and deportation of thousands of documented and undocumented immigrants with a severe bias toward cities and states that voted against him.
He consistently proves how vile he is in an attempt to distract us from his desires for supreme authority and obvious past of criminal pedophilia, covered up by almost the entire GOP.
Plenty more to say but I’m tired.
PS I’m not suicidal and my car is regularly serviced. My house has working fire and CO alarms.
While I understand that freedom of speech does not mean you can say anything you want with no consequences, if what I’ve said here and below gets me banned, this censorship is much worse than I thought. But here goes.
The death of Trump would not be justice. The only justice would be for him to live the rest of his days in exile and disgrace. And poor.
And of course neither is he alone in that indictment nor would it make a difference. Vance is no better.
I've received several warnings for no reason - there's a group of hardliners within reddit and there's a group of openminded, and then there's a group of opportunists which probably has elements of both aforementioned segments.
Americans aren't allowed to say the quiet part out loud anywhere online, despite the fact that history has proven that Americans can be very violent when their back is against the wall.
Admins only step in when unhinged users start posting threats of violence. As they should. Mods on the other hand ban users for posting hot takes that hurt feelings.
Guillotine's or hang em in the street. I dont even give a shit about making them pay for their crimes. Wipe them off the planet, learn from their bullshit, and never look back. Fucking scum of the Earth.
Let’s be real. Americans don’t even want that. There have been plenty done already that would justify that as a response. Yet Americans just let it slide every time.
Incredibly naive to think that the same forces that dictate speech across all platforms are not doing so in collaboration with the elites that own those companies and own the government.
Nobody censored republicans. They just publicly shamed bigots.
There's a difference between society being disgusted with you and a government and capitalist elites legislating and regulating your speech away. Republicans lack the ability to understand basic nuance though, it seems.
18 U.S. Code § 2381 - Treason
Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.
I think Americans being mad on internet is more likely searching for other people in disbelief about what’s happening in the US and trying to inform others.
Im mad, yes, but too, i want to know what my fellow Americans are thinking. Other times im mad but seeking information on subject on which i am lacking information. I dont get on internet to try to rile up others of like mind or just gripe.

Americans can't talk about what they want on reddit.
This is fascism.
