CENTRAL ISLIP, NY – A 23-count superseding indictment was filed today in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, charging George Anthony Devolder Santos, better known as “George Santos,” the United States Representative for the Third District of New York, with one count of conspiracy to commit offenses against the United States, two counts of wire fraud, two counts of making materially false statements to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), two counts of falsifying records submitted to obstruct the FEC, two counts of aggravated identity theft, and one count of access device fraud.
I feel like there’s an important precedent with Hunter Biden, too. Yes you can get charged even if you’re in the royal family. It’ll make absolutely no difference to what the Republicans say, since they make no pretense of consistency, but it’ll make a difference to actual law enforcement and judicial decisions to some degree, which are a lot more impactful.
The difference of course is that Hunter Biden is being prosecuted for something that is normally not prosecuted solely because of his families political ties. The Trump family were not investigated/prosecuted for things that are normally prosecuted because of political ties.
Roe v wade was overturned. Not really
Yeah… it’s concerning. There are small signs of hope in that all the current Supreme Court has been telling Trump to go to hell any time he wants them to keep him in power regardless of the votes.
(So far)
(Also I was talking not really about the courts but a more about the prosecutors and Justice Department getting in the habit of pursuing even “important people” when they’re being clearly criminal. It’s not much but I’ll take it.)
Unfortunately, it is far too late to abort most Republican Congressmen.
