So - I'm not the only one pretending to work but actually obsessively checking news sources at the moment ... right?
@SparkleTea I am out of work at the moment, tired of hacking the garden weeds in the midday sun right now, and am in no rush to jump into the distraction sewage stream of news.
Probably I need to eat lunch, I think.
@SparkleTea Ah, this news?
I say, "Come on. No bail for this traitor!"
"Trump indicted on four charges
Donald Trump has been indicted on four counts involved with trying to overturn the 2020 election by special counsel Jack Smith.
The former president faces the charges:
- Conspiracy to Defraud the United States
- Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding
- Obstruction of and Attempt to Obstruct an Official Proceeding
- Conspiracy Against Rights"
@murodegrizeco @SparkleTea The Conspiracy against rights is a Civil War era law.
Misdemeanor, unless prosecutors prove one of the statutory aggravating factors such as a bodily injury, use of a dangerous weapon, death resulting, or attempt to kill, in which case there are graduated penalties up to and including life in prison or death. #January6thInsurrection
