How is it a lot of these "freedom fighters" are just middle aged doofus men who live with their moms? I'd say Fallout: New Vegas and the like went way over their heads.

Netanyahu urged Trump to attack Iran after he lost the presidency — report

Former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged Donald Trump to launch a military strike against Iran after it was clear that the former US president had lost the 2020 election, a report said Thursday.


General Mark Milley, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, battled to prevent Trump from ordering a strike against Iran, while the president was circled by hawks, including Netanyahu, pressuring him to execute such a strike, according to a report Thursday by the New Yorker.


“If you do this, you’re gonna have a fucking war,” Milley reportedly warned Trump at one point.




Other foreign policy advisers, including then-vice president Mike Pence, also reportedly pushed for military action against Iran.


When Milley asked why they were so intent on attacking the Iranians, at a meeting where Trump was not present, Pence replied: “Because they are evil.”

A propaganda tool’ for Trump: A second federal judge castigates attorneys who filed a lawsuit challenging the 2020 results

“Did that ever occur to you? That, possibly, [you’re] just repeating stuff the president is lying about?” Federal Magistrate Judge N. Reid Neureiter asked the two lawyers, Gary D. Fielder and Ernest John Walker, during a hearing to consider sanctioning them.


The two lawyers argued they had a good-faith belief that the election was stolen and did not trust government officials and others who affirmed that it was secure and that there was not widespread fraud.
It was the second time this week that a judge dressed down lawyers who filed cases alleging fraud in the 2020 election, as the legal system grapples with how to hold accountable those who used the court system to spread falsehoods about the vote.

Fielder said the two had a “good faith” belief that the election was stolen, citing theories put forward by various other lawyers and Trump allies — including, he said, MyPillow chief executive Mike Lindell. “These are serious allegations, made by serious people,” he explained.

Trump says his only regret as President was not deploying military to attack BLM protestors

"Over the years," Leonnig and Rucker write, "Trump rarely has expressed misgivings. But he regrets his response to protests last summer in Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, and other cities. 'I think if I had it to do again, I would have brought in the military immediately,' he said."
As it is, Amnesty International in August of 2020 says it "Recorded 125 Separate Incidents of Police Violence Against Protesters, Medics, Journalists and Legal Observers in 40 States and D.C. During May and June Protests."
Trump regrets not violating the civil rights of protestors even more.
In fact, as Georgetown law professor Rosa Brooks wrote in The Washington Post in June of last year, "Past presidents used the Insurrection Act to protect civil rights — not to send troops to silence dissent."

"The last time the act was invoked over local objections," she noted at the time, "was when past presidents used it to send federal troops to enforce desegregation orders in the South during the civil rights era. Using it now to suppress protests about police racism would be a bitter inversion of the spirit of the law."
For Trump to have used the Insurrection Act in 2020 only to have incited an insurrection in 2021 would have been an irony too great to escape the history books.

I suppose 8 months could be within someone's standards of punishment. Personally, however, I think he should be sterilized and sent to work in an Amazon center for 20 years.

He will have a federal crime on his record, which will make it difficult to find employment in the future (aside from right-wing campaigns). So the punishment won't end after 8 months.

also he can no longer vote for hail his supreme imperial leader so tough cookies there

 

[Aribeth Zelin]

also he can no longer vote for hail his supreme imperial leader so tough cookies there

Is there a federal law that does so?

Because while its been hampered by the GOP, Florida voters made felons eligible to vote.

 

[Khamon]

Oh that is true, and no, those are state laws.

Trump says his only regret as President was not deploying military to attack BLM protestors

So he regrets not killing black people and liberals when he had the chance. Not even a surprise that he came out and said so. With his outsize ego he feels nothing he says is wrong.
I mean, with remarks like this one...

"I think it would be hard if George Washington came back from the dead and he chose Abraham Lincoln as his vice president, I think it would have been very hard for them to beat me," Trump told the two Washington Post reporters."I think it would be hard if George Washington came back from the dead and he chose Abraham Lincoln as his vice president, I think it would have been very hard for them to beat me."

Got a migraine now from rolling my eyes.
