The GQP Thread: I'm even sick of that fuck's number and, anyway, he's gone (for now)

It begins.

The Jan. 6 panel voted Monday to refer former President Trump to the Department of Justice on at least four criminal charges, including insurrection and obstruction of an official proceeding of Congress.

Just a bad day all around for rapists.

After a month-long trial and nine days of deliberations, Los Angeles jurors on Monday found Harvey Weinstein guilty of the rape and sexual assault of just one of the four accusers he was charged with abusing.

But the three guilty counts involving an Italian actor and model known at the trial as Jane Doe 1 still struck a major blow against the disgraced movie mogul, and provided another #MeToo moment of reckoning, five years after he became a magnet for the movement.

Weinstein, 70, who is two years into a 23-year sentence for a rape and sexual assault conviction in New York that is under appeal, could get up to 24 years in prison in California when he’s sentenced.

He was found guilty of rape, forced oral copulation and another sexual misconduct count involving the woman who said he appeared uninvited at her hotel room door during a Los Angeles film festival in 2013.

George Santos responds to accusations he made stuff up by using a Churchill quote which wasn't actually said by Churchill, which I guess is on brand for him.
 
When the Confederacy was defeated in 1865, Davis was captured, accused of treason, and imprisoned at Fort Monroe in Hampton, Virginia. He was never tried and was released after two years. Davis's legacy is intertwined with his role as President of the Confederacy.

Ford, however, insisted on a statement of contrition; Nixon felt he had not committed any crimes and should not have to issue such a document. Ford eventually agreed, and on September 8, 1974, he granted Nixon a "full, free, and absolute pardon" that ended any possibility of an indictment.

Heard Presidential Historian Michael Beschloss this morning pondering whether or not the last two times we went through this if we had actually at least had indicted the perpetrators we may have had a different arc of history at this point. Maybe Trump never happens. We never dealt with the aftermath of the Civil War and we never jailed our criminal President. Trump is Jefferson Davis and Nixon all rolled up into one. And he has a complicit faction who is still holding offices across our country today. There is going to be huge pressure on our Justice Department not to even indict Trump. I believe it needs to happen. I have my doubts it will.

Jesus, I just read his attorney's statement. That's not even a non-denial denial, it's just gibberish with a bunch of MAGA buzzwords. It has to all be fake, because if they could prove any of it was true they'd do so just to make the NYT look bad.

At this point I'm doubting he's actually gay, since nothing else he's said has been true.
 
It's pretty fascinating that the isolationist party hat has shown up on the Republican side now. It used to be just on the extreme left.

They're not isolationist, they just don't want to do anything that might be an impedance to Russia and it's global interests.
