My thoughts, exactly. Can Pete be charged with war crimes? Dump can’t, I assume, because the SC granted him immunity from prosecution.*

That sound you heard was every GOP elected official with a lick of sense absolutely SHITTING themselves thinking about the visual of Mark Kelly back in uniform before a military court as Whiskey Pete's handpicked chucklefucks try to railroad him on bogus charges.

“When no career prosecutor - would seek an indictment of James Comey, Trump hastily installed a member of the White House staff as the “acting” US Attorney. That appointment was invalid, and everything that Lindsey Halligan did while masquerading as US Attorney is null and void, ab initio.”
We must all be Mark Kelly.

Maybe putting a dozen narcissistic poser Fox hosts in charge of sprawling federal agencies with millions of combined employees and vastly important responsibilities with enormous power wasn’t the greatest plan.

The vicious cycle of monopolization:
1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.

What Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan did was not incompetence. It was intentional misconduct. They both must be disbarred.

Comey: "I'm grateful the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence & incompetence... I was inspired by the career people who refused to be part of this travesty. It cost some of them their jobs, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price"

The targeting of Mark Kelly isn’t politics...it’s the sick new normal created by a movement that can’t win arguments, only intimidate. When public servants become targets, freedom isn’t next in line… it’s already in danger. Fortunately, the outrage is intensifying rapidly.

DOGE is not really gone, it’s just been made standard operating procedure now. Please stop celebrating DOGE ‘ending’ as a ‘win.’ It’s not. Their cuts have already killed 600,000 people. Elon stole all your data. Don’t fall for the clickbait.

DC jury acquitted the Sandwich Guy. Lindsay Halligan can’t even bring an indictment because she’s not legit. Jeanine Pirro couldn't get a conviction because she’s incompetent.
As the judge pointed out, incompetent Pam Bondi completely screwed up the appointment of Halligan in violation of the law.
