Trump is not accused of ordering any assassinations, but Mediaite reported this week that assassination plots were discussed by Trump’s allies in the weeks before the 2020 election. Roger Stone, a long-time right-wing political operative and acolyte to Trump, discussed assassinating Reps. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) and Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) with his associate Sal Greco.
According to an audio recording of the conversation obtained by Mediaite, Stone told Greco that it was “time to do it … Let’s go find Swalwell. It’s time to do it. Then we’ll see how brave the rest of them are. It’s time to do it. It’s either Nadler or Swalwell has to die before the election. They need to get the message. Let’s go find Swalwell and get this over with. I’m just not putting up with this **** anymore.” Stone was pardoned by Trump in 2020 following a conviction on charges of witness tampering and lying to Congress related to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The former president pardoned several of his political allies, and if reelected he plans to bestow upon himself wide-ranging executive powers reminiscent of a dictatorship. This, combined with the arguments made Tuesday by his attorneys lay bare the ultimate goals of the former president — a system in which the president exists wholly above the law. IP: Logged |

I listened to the live audio of the judges this morning. That wasn’t President Trump’s attorney who said that. One of the loony judges kept saying that would happen by continuing to ask President Trump’s lawyer the question over and over.IP: Logged |

Did Presidential immunity cover Barack Hussein Obama when he murdered 2 US citizens with a drone strike? Does Presidential immunity cover crime boss Joe Biden now that he's entered into a criminal conspiracy with drug cartels, so called religious NGOs and Mayorakas to overthrow the US border...which has caused the deaths of more than 1500 immigrants and sold at least 100,000 women and little girls into sex slavery? Just checking. I know you want to be consistent. IP: Logged |

Why did rumpy promise “bedlam” if prosecutions continue?Why did he refuse to answer a question, as to whether he’d tell supporters to not be violent? IP: Logged |

Simple questions.
Why can't you answer?

In that strange thread about feminists, that you started, I’ve just realized that you didn’t say anything about those trump supporters who dragged that capitol officer, and beat him. You only tried to turn it around on me, and imply that you thought I would be fine with an officer being beaten. Why won’t you denounce what they did? Their violence. Their trying to overthrow the government. You can tell the good people, by the way they choose to protest?

"In that strange thread about feminists, that you started"Stop trying to change the subject. If that 'strange thread' you allege I started, relates to Presidential immunity, then post the link here so we can all examine it. IP: Logged |

No one tried to overthrow the government. If they did, why weren’t they charged for it? Every time you say that, teasel, you show how ignorant you are.IP: Logged |
