Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Has anybody read the list of indictments just on the federal documents case? It is not going to end well for him, most likely:

31 counts of retaining and failing to deliver national defense documents under the Espionage Act. Each of these charges is for possession of a separate, specific document. Ten of these documents were handed over to the government in June 2022, and the other 21 were recovered in the August 2022 search.[30]

According to the indictment, the 31 documents describe:

  • U.S. nuclear weapons;
  • foreign military attacks, plans, capabilities, and effects on U.S. interests;
  • foreign nuclear capabilities;
  • foreign support for terrorist activity;
  • communications with foreign leaders;
  • U.S. military activities;
  • White House daily foreign intelligence briefings;
  • potential vulnerabilities of the United States and its allies to military attack;
  • and plans for possible retaliation in response to a foreign attack.[31]

He is a traitor through and through, and this is going to make his life painful next year.

And yet... He's probably going to remain free, untouched, highly supported, and be on the ballot as a real contender for reelection. Something's not quite right with that picture.
