Greets and saluts from the NYC metro area. I saw a post by Charles a few threads back, where they were wondering why more people weren’t charged with seditious conspiracy, including the Bundy nuts at Malheur NWR.

It’s simple really. Before 1/6, the last time that the feds tried charging some group with seditious conspiracy it didn’t end particularly well. The feds couldn’t make the case, and that led prosecutors to be more gun shy on its use.

1/6 included so many explicit instances of seditious conspiracy, that they’re making the case and getting guilty plea deals for good measure. I’d still argue that the feds are under-charging 1/6 defendants, and that they should be running up the line all the way to Trump himself. He’s always going to claim he’s being persecuted. The facts speak for themselves and he’s guilty as fuck on everything from witness tampering to obstruction of justice to seditious conspiracy by and through Meadows and others in his cabal of cronies. He pardoned people like Flynn and Stone, just so they can commit even more crimes.

Now, we learn that one of the people instrumental in claiming that there were no Trump-Russia connections was himself on the Deripaska payroll and helped cover up Trump crimes while pumping up claims of Hillary malfeasance.

It reeks. The NY FBI office needs to be cleaned out; heck the FBI from top down needs leadership changes, and Democrats needs to clean house there. GOPers will caterwaul, but it was GOPers from Comey to Wray that were in charge of the mess - including 1/6 failures, Trump criminal conduct, and it’s clear the GOP cannot be trusted with power.
