Charges on the horizon for RD and friends

[Gravydoo II]

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack said Wednesday it has evidence that former President Rape Daddy and some of his associates may have illegally tried to obstruct Congress' count of electoral votes and "engaged in a criminal conspiracy to defraud the United States" in their efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.

The committee argued in a federal court filing Wednesday that Rape Daddy may have committed two crimes as it challenged a bid by former Rape daddy lawyer John Eastman to block investigators from obtaining thousands of pages of emails.

The panel argued that the records should not be protected by attorney-client privilege under the crime fraud exception, given that Eastman's legal advice may have helped RD commit multiple crimes.

"The facts we've gathered strongly suggest that Dr. Eastman's emails may show that he helped Rape Daddy advance a corrupt scheme to obstruct the counting of electoral college ballots and a conspiracy to impede the transfer of power," Reps. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., the leaders of the panel, said in a statement.

In making their case that Rape Daddy and key allies tried to stop the counting of electoral votes and pressure former Vice President Mike Pence "to manipulate the results in his favor," the committee cited several interviews with senior White House officials and aides to Pence, including his attorney and chief of staff.

So this will result in a criminal referral sent to the Justice Dept.



DOHHHHHHH


But rape daddy is innocent! He never stole boxes and boxes of classified documents from the white house or destroyed classified info using a toilet! Oh wait.. LOL

this thread will age poorly

[Nibblewitz]

Is this the capitol attack where the only victim was an unarmed protestor gunned down by capitol police? Or was this the capitol attack that was fomented by plainclothes FBI agents?

Maybe OP is talking about the capitol attack that capitol police could see coming a mile away but did not beef up security so that something could happen.

You mean the committee who hates trump who is also investigating trump MAY have found SOME evidence of impropriety by SOME of his associates? Maybe? Wow!

Jan 6th is the most pathetic nothingburger ever. Let it go. I know you won't, but for your own sanity let it go my man.

The worst injustice of Jan 6th is how those arrested are now being treated and villified. It's disgusting and democrats are disgusting for engaging in it, actively and enthusiastically.

I think the world war 3 thing worked out so well for biden that he's going to win and trump is going to jail (and then we're all going to put chips in our brains and become fish)

edit: hmm unless of course the trumpers go like, ohh that worked out well for the ukrainians. Lets do that!

[Nibblewitz]

Yea, the only thing that can stop Biden now is rampant inflation, open borders, and lawlessness.

I think its the capitol attack where capitol police removed barricades, and politely held doors open.

[Gravydoo II]

So they were supposed to predict the future and think "these guys look like a mob of traitors hell bent on getting inside this building to stop the counting of votes...! "

The capital police were supposed to use their prescience vision to see "omg rape daddy is gonna start a riot"

Then go get more barriers and set them up before they completed the 5 min walk from the stage to the scene of their crimes.
