Edit: please pay attention to the first two words of this headline. We don’t actually know if Trump received a target letter, he could be lying out of his ass to mess with the investigation.
I mean, why wouldn’t he be?
He absolutely should be, but that was painfully obvious a long time ago at this point and he hasn’t been indicted yet. Hopefully the DOJ actually does it’s job and stops giving criminal Republicans passes, but I won’t believe it until they actually do it.
Oh fuck, are we going to get a bunch of articles to the effect of “We really got him this time!” every day until the end of time? Felt like spam on reddit, rather not see this shit until he’s actively being thrown in jail.
Only two and a half Years late. Way to go Garland. No chance this will bite us in the ass. /s
Why exactly are we trusting Trump as a primary source?
trump can’t keep his mouth closed.
So if it’s too early for the government to make a statement, trump will usually start talking about it even tho he doesn’t have to
Right, and when he opens his mouth it’s often completely false. Like when he claimed he was going to be arrested by the end of day and NY police said no such thing was happening.
So again, why are we believing him as a primary source?
Because he said it…
And because reporting on it drives views to the website?
Like, do you honestly not understand why an article was written about it?
No one is “believing” him, the article doesn’t say it’s true, just that trump is saying it is.
Trump saying things shouldn’t be considered news.
I don’t see what saying that to me is going to accomplish…
If anything, it does the opposite by making this post more visible, which drives more clicks to the website, and makes the website write more about what trump says
So if you really want to do something about it, don’t reply.
Sorry, but whether we like it or not, the guy is still the leading GOP candidate for President and de-facto leader of the party. What he says could influence the nation’s future. So yeah, it is newsworthy.
Because prosecutors and judges are too scared of him to throw the gag order at him he’s earned a dozen times over with all the threats he’s made and violence that’s happened around him and more reliable sources are refusing to make any comments or give an off the record confirmation or denial, so he’s the only source of information we have about this. It’s an extremely frustrating situation.
He had better be a target of that investigation.
Will be wild!
The big question is, will “judge” aileen cannon get this case too?
For the life of me, I can’t see why the insurrection grand jury would be in florida
O’Rielly?
Do investigators often send letters tipping off suspects?
If the investigator thinks the suspect will rush to social media to further implicate themself, yes.
