  1. Today If nobody’s held accountable then they absolutely will learn something, namely that they can get away with absolutely anything and anytime.

    1. @Baby tRump Fox News is just as guilty They instigated, misleading and provoked all that from happening. Fox News has to be held liable.

    2. Dittzx : Fox Faux News is a dangerous propaganda machine very similar to RT (Russian Televisions). RT is banned in most European countries probably because the Europeans have more direct experience dealing with Russian disinformation and propaganda over the decades. Yet RT is allowed here in America and Canada. Fox Faux News has just dropped in its ratings and now trails CNN though ahead of MSNBC. A good amount of Fox 🦊 Fox Faux News hounds have abandoned 🦊 and have turned towards even more extreme sources eg white supremacists news sights on the dark web except for the old geezers who have it on all the time in the background at the nursing home & mental institutions. These media’s must be taken off the airways & internet but then some will 😢 cry “Freedom of Speech.”

    3. Exactly!!!!! His supporters that did his dirty deeds for him are sitting in jail and fbi are on the hunt for more while he’s scot free enjoying everything.

    4. @Tyg Rahof There is not enough room on you tube to go into the Bush family and there aiding in the destruction of our Republic. Democrats and Republicans same bird different feathers. We now have the worst possible administration in the White House. Ignorance and complacency will destroy this Republic. Washington is counting on this as they rush to destroy our freedoms..

    5. @Nathaniel Hale Destroy our freedoms? Have you Ever lived in a big city? The minority communities are so under siege the war in Iraq is looking good. Our country has always been run by the rich and that we can both agree has to change. The new administration, ANOTHER rich man, is at least trying to include more new blood. As in the senate the average age is about 385 yrs…

  2. Now let’s see how, the banks he used, the PGA, Florida residents, New York City, lawyers, his niece, Twitter, just about every Democratic in the world see he is guilty. Let’s see how these bozos in the Senate can’t come to the same conclusions we have? Amazing

    1. Snigger, you mean, mean person. Remember, vengeance is best served cold. I’m hoping this goes the way of natural justice. Solidarity from Australia.

    1. BAM! FASCIST TRUMP Deny & Delay murder tactics overlay his secret “herd mentality”/herd-immunity campaign/runaway pandemic
      of ++400k covid-kills. might as well be for for putin+, or, is it?.

  3. Excellent quote at the end, but it’s hard to imagine he’s actually ever going to be held accountable. Here’s hoping there’s still justice and decency in the world.

    1. @SweetandSour The laptop wasn’t turned over to law enforcement, so it can’t be used as evidence in any criminal prosecution anyway.

    2. Suuuuuure, Hale… 🙄
      *Just like* Jim Comey’s arrest.
      *Just like* Andrew McCabe’s arrest.
      *Just like* John Podesta’s arrest.
      *Just like* Greg Craig’s conviction.
      *Meanwhile* (and allowing for ‘as-of-yet-announced indictments’)…
      #45✳ *’accrued’ FOUR disbarred lawyers (and counting), SEVEN former employees INDICTED for felonies (SIX already CONVICTED), DOZENS of…’unplanned resignations’ AND, at last count, FIVE administration members with “Contempt Citations” on their resumes FOREVER (Barr was cited TWICE 🤨).*
      And we won’t *EVEN mention* #45✳’s *numerous* ‘financial fiascos’… 💸
      But *we will* remind *everyone of THIS fact:*

    3. But but but but I thought the United States Corporation Installed President Joe biden said he wasn’t going to ban fracking????? The leftist looooovve giving production to other foreign countries. Wait….. I forgot, its not biden doing it. Its the Beaurocrat marxist/ communist pulling his strings.

      Beijing Joe : “What am I signing”
      Marxist/communist: “just sign it”

      “Make Americans Last Again” -Extreme leftist

  4. He needs to go permanently.
    Never again. Period. And everyone else involved too. Cruz, Boubert, Hawley, all of them.

    1. Savor your ecstasy while you can. The hole these establishment criminals are digging doesn’t have an exit. You are very likely not going to like the way this story ends.

    2. @kudos premier Clinton was Impeached over a BJ…. there’s no comparison. The Rethugs, then.. just like now, have taken a f’en sledge hammer to the Constitution.

    3. But but but but I thought the United States Corporation Installed President Joe biden said he wasn’t going to ban fracking?????

  5. The world is watching you. We saw with our own eyes and heard with our own ears. Now Republicans do the right thing and put and end to this cancer and let the country heal.

    1. I see anything in video in Republican voters against trump
      The video what I saw anything Republican said: we cannot stand by and let our Constitution be attacked and let our democracy be attacked
      This cannot be allow.
      I see good Republican voter are angry with trump

    2. But but but but I thought the United States Corporation Installed President Joe biden said he wasn’t going to ban fracking?????

    1. Yep, and friendly countries every bit as much as unfriendly ones. If the American system of government fails in the matter of accountability for representatives, the country isn’t standing on rock, or even on sand, but on jello.

    2. @Janet Chaplin His whole administration needs to be punished… They need to follow every penny that has need embezzled….. He pardoned Steve knowingly he was a thief !!!

  6. The GOP should impeach the orange cult to defend the constitution, failing so the GOP will be the vote out of office by the peoples.

    1. Anyone not wanting Trump convicted and held accountable for his actions of betrayal wanted VP Mike Pence assassinated by Trump’s insurrection mob. Period.

  7. Banning alone is not enough. He has to pay a heavy price for the irreparable damage that this fascist did to the USA and to the world.

    1. I agree. Anyone not wanting Trump convicted and held accountable for his actions of betrayal wanted VP Mike Pence assassinated by Trump’s insurrection mob. Period.

  8. Politicians enjoy a whole other brand of justice and I’ll be damned if I can understand why. Cruz and Hawley should’ve been thrown out on their ears. This is no criminal trial but prison is far too good for trump.

    1. @Gavin Slatter – Has anyone told Bigbragwoof that this *isn’t* CNN…?
      The station call-letters *are right there in the thumbnail,* even. 🤣

    1. i like that. relatable to my bleeding brain under 30K+ djt lies 70 mill. dupes. *#PROSECUTEdjt to protect america’s future*, our kids to our air, from fascists, and their “we will DOMINATE DOMINATE DOMINATE them” sadist’s dream.

    2. But but but but I thought the United States Corporation Installed President Joe biden said he wasn’t going to ban fracking????? The leftist looooovve giving production to other foreign countries. Wait….. I forgot, its not biden doing it. Its the Beaurocrat marxist/ communist pulling his strings.

  9. “If Trump’s coup goes unpunished, it will become a training exercise!” Simple and well said! And so true!

    1. @DrCAS1964
      Well, dump made sure that fraudulent election was kept under wraps. In 2016 the issue was brought to the attention of the public. It gained momentum and dump promised a thorough investigation. In 2018, upon new evidence coming to light, dump took the word of Putin over his own intelligence agencies.
      Forgot that lil tidbit?
