The fat orange guy is Federally Fucked lol!!!
You're just positive that nothing will happen to this crook... we'll, you keep in thinking that.

Leave Truth alone and let him work his mojo. The moment he gets optimistic we're screwed.
Partnership with Trump is guaranteed to harm you in some fashion... THERE IS NO WAY AROUND IT!!!
They’ve been trying to indict Trump for 6 years, looks like they finally got him.
Of course it’s political. It’s straight out of the playbook of Putin, or that dictator in Turkey.
On one hand, I’m surprised how people in here are so happy that our democracy is crumbling and we’re turning into Russia (indicting political enemies) or China (govt controlling what can and can’t be talked about COVID).
On the other hand, I don’t feel sorry for Trump. He deserves everything he gets.
If we ever get a Republican president, rest assured he’ll use these exact same tactics against democrats, and everyone on this board will be crying.

So far, just the arraignment. Notice I said, "so far".
Y’all been hyped up and optimistic about this clown going to prison for 6 years and he gets away every time. You’re not tired of the false hope? There was an attorney on CNN today who said there’s a very long process with this and it could be years before a conviction. She also said an indictment is just that, it doesn’t even mean anything at this point. Trump may die before the trial is even done. He would be in his 80’s by the time this is done. The point is to tie him up in court to keep him from running as president . But he will NOT face any time. All the Republikkklans have made sure of this. IM SICK OF IT!!!!!

News: House Ethics Committee quietly restarts Gaetz probe
The House Ethics Committee has restarted an investigation into Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), the latest legal problem for the controversial Florida Republican, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.The secretive panel hasn’t decided yet whether to move ahead with a special investigative subcommittee. That would require a vote by the Ethics Committee members and would be publicly disclosed.
But committee investigators have begun looking into the allegations surrounding the fourth-term lawmaker, we’re told.
The Justice Department told Gaetz’s lawyers earlier this year that he wouldn’t be charged in a federal sex trafficking investigation involving underage girls.
Gaetz long denied any wrongdoing, including when his friend and political ally Joel Greenberg pleaded guilty as part of the federal probe. Greenberg was later sentenced to 11 years in prison.
The Ethics Committee announced in April 2021 that it had begun a preliminary probe into Gaetz. Here’s former Rep. Ted Deutch (D-Fla.) and the late Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.), who were chair and ranking member of the Ethics Committee at that time:
“The Committee is aware of public allegations that Representative Matt Gaetz may have engaged in sexual misconduct and/or illicit drug use, shared inappropriate images or videos on the House floor, misused state identification records, converted campaign funds to personal use, and/or accepted a bribe, improper gratuity, or impermissible gift, in violation of House Rules, laws, or other standards of conduct.”
But the Ethics Committee later disclosed that it had deferred its investigation at the request of the Justice Department. The panel also noted it wasn’t finished with Gaetz either.
Which leads to the current situation. Since DOJ didn’t charge Gaetz and is no longer scrutinizing him, the Ethics Committee is free to conduct its own investigation.
Gaetz’s office didn’t respond to a request for comment on Thursday night.
The Florida Republican has been at the center of an ongoing standoff with Speaker Kevin McCarthy and the GOP leadership in the wake of the debt-limit crisis.
Gaetz, 41, was also one of the most vocal opponents to McCarthy’s ascension to the speaker’s chair during January’s grueling 15-vote floor drama.

Killer advice from OJ.
After the bullshit she pulled last time she better run away from this case or she’s going to go down with the rest of them. The evidence is super clear.
