If he weren’t such a bully, I might feel some pity. That is a screeching display of public cowardice that can hardly be fathomed. He is screaming for somebody, anybody, to SAVE him!
Any other celebrity, let alone public official, would go with something like: “We are eager to expose this partisan prosecution in a court of law. We expect full exoneration.” Instead, he is screaming into the night and threatening public officials left and right. Pure chickenshit.
Also, I am not a lawyer, but isn’t blackmailing a Federal official against the law?
Along these lines, some talking heads have suggested that McCarthy’s public instruction to his relevant committee chairs to pull in Bragg and his colleagues for a good coal-hauling constitutes obstruction of justice.
While we wait for the indictment to drop (not today, apparently), Grandpa Diaperload is ramping up his rhetoric dangerously close to an outright call for violence.
His calls for protest have gone largely unheeded. I don’t think he even got into double-digits at MAL following his call for an uprising on Tuesday. I hope they have learned their lesson from Jan 6, and realize that they are putting their life and liberty on the line while that fat fuckwit watches them safely on TV.
Also, those who did show up to protest claimed that the lack of numbers was down to there being facial recognition and vaccine trackers deployed by the FBI via Italian satellites that are powered by Jewish space lasers in an effort to sap and impurify all of their precious bodily fluids.
Whatever. If whackadoo conspiracy theories keeps that ignorant butts glued to the couch, I’m all for it.
Yes. But this is a specific threat of violence against the specific DA who is about to indict him. This is a whole nother level of reckless stupidity, and likely a federal crime with a sentence multiplier.
He’s really trying hard to make that “death and destruction” a thing. This stuff, and the direct threats to Alvin Bragg, are going to make the bail discussion interesting.
I wonder what has been fueling Trump’s 24 hour rage fest…
Oh, hey!
Meanwhile, Corcoran has completed his grand jury testimony in the documents case. Given that it was all done in one morning, I’m guessing that the pleaded the 5th.
