"Every defendant charged with racketeering in Georgia is, of course, a member of the Republican Party, which until recently, at least, was known as the party of law and order. Since the multiple indictments of Donald Trump, however, the Republican Party has taken a sudden pro-crime turn, with many Republicans, including Trump himself, calling for the defunding and dissolution of the Department of Justice and the FBI."

REMINDER to CORPORATE MEDIA: This government shutdown was because last week Trump DEMANDED the shutdown to defund the federal criminal prosecutions of him. That is 100% why MAGA is causing this. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-demands-republicans-shut-government-defund-criminal-prosecutions-rcna111365

"The standard practice for prosecutors who are trying to hold the leaders of a group of criminals accountable is to 'go up the chain.' …

@Huntn00 That, to me, is the salient question. These people are a mirror of whom almost half of us aspire to be.

He should resign immediately.
If he were indicted for some business or personal matter, maybe not, but this is public corruption and includes national security implications.

As Democrats, we cannot tolerate this even as allegations.

“It’s hard to grasp the complete derangement of this moment. Three days before they’re set to shut down the United States government, Republicans launch a baseless impeachment drive against President Biden. No one can figure out the logic of either course of action. Why shut down the U.S. government, something no enemy nation has ever succeeded in doing?"
