@brianstelter I don't understand why journalists and outlets that Trump has defamed aren't suing him for that. It's what he does when he believes he's been defamed.
@AgSpaniel86685@brianstelter Only fascists hate our free press. True Americans defend the Constitutional right of others to express opinions that they find personally disagreeable.
@meWooster@ChuckGrassley To do that, Grassley would need to cite a statute that Smith allegedly violated. No matter how much you want an indictment of Smith, Grassley can't ask the DOJ to indict him just for investigating Trump.
@TheRealDrDave1@ChuckGrassley You should at least cite the statute the Smith allegedly violated, unless you believe that people should go to jail simply for not treating Trump as an omniscient and infallible being.
@Faith_B4_Fear2@ChuckGrassley By "real leaders," you mean "dictators." You can't cite a statute that Smith allegedly violated; you just believe that he should be in jail for failing to recognize the MAGA assertion that Trump is infallible.
@realohiogirl@ChuckGrassley Of course you do, because you want a dictatorship in which investigating your leader is a crime. Republicans no longer support equal treatment of everyone under the law. They no longer even require that a specific law be cited when demanding that their opponents be jailed.
@LoriB60915177@ChuckGrassley "Prison for life??" None of you can ever cite a statute that Smith allegedly violated. You want a dictatorship in which any investigation of Dear Leader is a crime.
@docksflipflops@ChuckGrassley When you post something like that, you need to cite the crime, or you'll be seen as just another cult member who believes that Dear Leader is perfect and that any investigation of Him is criminal.
@MusicmanBack@ChuckGrassley You want to indict Smith for subpoenaing records of donations when he's investigating whether those donations were solicited fraudulently? In their zeal to defend Trump at all costs, Republicans have abandoned any claim to support "law and order."
@GNeilKennedy@ChuckGrassley What's criminal about subpoenaing records of donations when investigating possible fraud by the person or organization that solicited those donations?
@AmFirstMAGA2@ChuckGrassley It's really hard to arrest people for doing their jobs responsibly. Your absolute faith that Trump is incapable of wrongdoing is exactly why the MAGA movement is labeled a cult.
@UnrulyJulie15@ChuckGrassley Justice would be an honest investigation into the attempts by Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election, but I doubt that's what you mean. You probably believe that Trump is incapable of wrongdoing.
@LindaG_RN@ChuckGrassley Anyone who says that about a political opponent without citing a crime is endorsing a fascist ideology of imprisoning citizens simply for opposing the Dear Leader.
@ChuckGrassley Doesn't law enforcement normally subpoena records of donations to any organization that's being investigated for fraudulent solicitation of those donations? Your entire worldview is based on the premise that Trump is incapable of wrongdoing, and it's disgustingly immoral.
@SenJudiciaryGOP@ChuckGrassley The determination of Senate Republicans to protect Trump from any honest investigation of potential crimes is obvious, and it's nothing but disgusting. Republicans have lost their moral compass and surrendered to the Roy Cohn "deny, deflect, blame, attack" ideology.
@ChuckGrassley Not a single one of you Senate Republicans will ever admit that there's even a possibility that Trump ever violated any law, because he and his MAGA cult demand that he be worshiped as a god, and you oblige him.
