The government’s case against the January 6 defendants is in legal peril
Over 650 people have been criminally charged in connection with the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6. The main charge against hundreds of these defendants is felony “obstruction” under 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2).
Most laws like this are deliberately vague. This allows persecutors and judges leeway to use these laws as weapons...which is what is happening in this instance. What happens is generally mup to the judge...and persecutors shop for judges who have the "correct" ideology. Defendants have almost zero chance at finding a judge who follows the Constitution or believes in actual Liberty. The whole system is RIGGED to serve .Govs needs, not to deliver "justice".
You would think that a elected representative government that intentionally ignores all constitutional assigned duties would lack standing in any trial of insurrection against people that demand they do their job.

ReplyDeleteThis article's premise assumes we still live in a country with a rule of law.
ReplyDeleteWray is the one who should be on trial, corrupt as they come and arrogant, just like McCabe, Comey and Muller.
ReplyDeleteI agree.

Think of it as a 'double-agree'.
And if this attack against Americans fails, those who *actually* took up arms against The Constitution will be punished... how?
ReplyDeleteWhen the process *is* the punishment, and you allow the process to continue, you get what you feldercarbing deserve.
